Fatty Arbuckle Edith Storey. Lamara

Fatty Arbuckie Edith Storey, Lamara
 A bill calculated to please all tastes IS entering the last lap of it's engage ment at the Lamara today. The fea- ture IS Metros. The Eyes of Mystery and stars Edith Storey in her first pie ture for this concern. The plot is an exceedingly novel one, blending the air of mystery which is always pres ent with a goodly amount of adventure of the most exciting order, and intro ducing love story that is as refresh ing as 1t is novel. Edith Storey is seen to excellent advantage not only in the scenes calling forth intense dra- matic skill, but in those that demand the extreme of physical and athletic prowess. This engagement is the first appearance of this star in Phoenix for long time, but judging from the crowds which greeted her all day yes terday, she has lost none of her popu- larity and continues on her successful career, rightfully reviewed as the Barnhardt of the screen.
 Fatty (Roscoe) Arbuckle keeps the house in roars, with "A Country Hero his latest Paramount comedy, and fea turing this weighty laugh provoker in the role of the village blacksmith" " If there could be anything funnier than Fatty Arbuckle as a blacksmith it has not as yet made an appearance.
 Rounding out the entire program MT and Mrs. Sidney Drew are again pre- senting one of their extremely clever comedies. This time it is Under the Influence" and is brimful of good
 wholesome laughs.
 Tomorrow begins the engagement ot Americas Sweetheart, Mary Pickford appearing in Artcrafts production o1 ''The Little Princess"

 PALO ALTO, Feb. 3.-More thrilling than movie scenario in its coinci- dence was the reunion in Palo Alto of brother and sister who had not seen each other since before the Civil War, each believing the other to be dead.
 The two old people are John w. Wells, 73, and his sister, Annie ". Deaver, S1. They are both in excellent health now and are enjoying them selves and each other immensely at the home of Herbert L. Murray, 344 Mid dlefield road Palo Alto, who is the nephew of the two
 The story is a long one and dates far back to the Civil War though the TO- nance of finding each other was brought about indirectly through the agency of the great world war
 Herbert L. Murray of Palo Alto is brother to Major General Arthur Mur- ray, '. $. A., who is stationed now in San Francisco at the Presidio. It was through him that the reunion of the aged brother and sister was brought about
 JOilil V. W ellS, NnO IS now Tn the United States forest service at San francisco, went away from Missouri to the CIVIL War many years ago, and lost complete track of his sister and indeed his whole family. He came west, and since the beginning of this war has often noticed General Murrays name in the papers. He remembered a nephew or the same name, whom he had left more than thirty years before when the boy was just starting to West Point. Thinking that they might be one and the same person, he addressed a letter to General Murray.
 By so doing he discovered a sister as well as nephew, for General Murray In San Francisco sent the letter on to hlS brother in Palo Alto. By the merest chance, Mrs. Annie Denver who has been staying in San Jose. came to visit her nephew, Herbert L. Murray in Palo Alto the next day, which was last Sat urday. She was overjoyed to hear the news of her brother John in San Fran cisco, whom she had believed to be dead.
 The brother and sister came togeth. CT today, for the first time since 1865. when Wells left Missouri. It was the same coincidence that brought Herbert L. Murray and his aunt, Mrs. Deaver together few months ago that now has united in the last years of their life a family broken mp by time and war

tatiyc In Congress 10th
District.

Mr.. McMillen has resided in Min
ncapolis, Mimi, over 90 years. he
was born on a farm near Clinton
Falls. Steele County. Minnesota. and
was educated ut Pilisbury Academy,
owatonna, Mimi. from which he was
graduated in 1890. After leaving
school he spent two years in Colora-
do and Utah and then entered the
law department OF the University OF
Minnesota from which he was sra-
duated in 1894 and has been practic-
ing law in Minneapolis since that
time.
Mr., McNlilieu made the following
statement:
Over and above all else we must
consider the welfare Of our Nation
first. last and at all times. Let us
never forget the words of our i'm
mortal Republican leader Abraham
Lincoln. when he said that 1.-The gov
eminent of the people. by the people
and for the people shall not perish
from the earth.
have great confidence in the 10y
atty. ability and efficiency Of the Re-
publican Party and IL elected shall
vote with its members In organizing
the House OF Representatives and be
guided largely by It's opinions and
advise. DO the republicans of this
district want man to represent
them In Congress who will not make
this simple pledge?
Having spent much of my time on
the farm my sympathy is with the
farmer and I believe that the farmer
should have the full value OF the pro-
duet Of the soil and the laborer
should have the full value of the
product of his toll.
Il believe that our laws should be
| so framed as TO result i'm the most
good to the greatest number. and
am opposed to laws and conditions
the primary object OF which Is to
make fortunes for few at the en-
pense Of the masses.
II you have confidence in Mr.. Nc
Millen vote for him June 18th.

Among the old county officers
who ere entitled to reelection is
certainly our sheriff, r. j. Haw-
ley. Mr.. Hawley has been sher-
iff for many years but there has
perhaps not been time during
his service as public officer
that his time has so been taken
up with duties as it has the past
year. His war duties on the Lo-
chi Board Of Pine County has
given him a pile Of extra work,
and 1t has also caused him to
have enemies here and there.
He has worked in this capacity
with but one object in view,
that Of serving his country to
the best Of his ability and doing
justice. He has fulfilled the du-
tics Of sheriff fearlessly and will
continue 70 do it. Mr.. Hawley
is too busy to do much campaign
ing this year so if we appreciate
his services il is up to us to re.
member him Mt the polls.

Another Pine County Newspaper
Gone.

During the past year three
Pine County newspapers have
"cashed in" and ceased publica-
ton, SO it does not appear that
the publishing Of a newspaper
in this county is as profitable as
it was once thought to. be.
The first Of these to cease was
the Hinckley Herald. then re-
Gently the Finlayson Reporter
and last week the Sturgeon Lake
Hustler. In winding up the
Hustler's career, Geo. Cunning
ham writes as follows:
With this issue passes the
Hustler. For nearly two years
we have paid our money like q
sport to keep the paper going
Ind have our community on the
map. 1t was like pouring sand in
a rat hole and while we are will
ling to try anything once we are
no pig and know when we have
enough. Why so many went in
to the newspaper game was a
mystery we sought to fathom.
We are frank to say we didn't
get any light. We got some ex-
perience however, that would be
Of great value to Brewster on
how to spend million. Why
men print country newspapers
we don't know and we don't
longer care. As we now view it
they are nutty. We were nutty
to try it but some things that
before puzzled us, the switching
|of papers to this or that candi-
date, to this or that cause are
now plain. Self-preservation is
the first law of nature. An edi-
tor before he will starve must
sell space to whoever will buy
and as the average country edi-
tor has to go to bed while the
wife washes his only shirt the
Lord knows we can hardly blame
him. Everybody seems to have
nm idea the editor and his family
can live on air. even the govern
ment that pays for everything
else under the sun and pays well
MS rule seems to want the news
papers to furnish free what ii
pays others for. 1t costs a pub
Usher money to print a paper
the same rs it costs a manufac-
turer money to make uniform
or a gun, the government is no
more entitled to get one free
than the other. The laborer is
worthy of his hire wherever he
is. Besides the government
there is a stream of others men
dicants we are tempted to call
them. County agricultural
agents can furnish copy by the
bushel but there is no hint of
the county dads offering to pay
for the publishing. and so it
goes. Talk about riding n free
horse to death. only we don't
give the publisher credit for be-
ing a horse. he is an ass. a great
big jackass for publishing a pa
per to the benighted heathens in
small communities"
