The New Oil Bill

OWING the energetic action not only of west Texas
~ legislators at Austin but also Of leading citizens,
many without any direct interest involved now appears
likely that senate bill No. 81 and house bill No TO- known
as the petroleum and gas bill, viii be passed by both
houses The fact almost assured If convincing pressure
brought members of the legislature from other
parts Of Texas.
The bill vii naturally have least support among those
least aected-and most of the oil prospects are N west
Texas The provisions Of the bill have been sufficiently
forth in the columns 1t suffices here to say
that they provide easier terms of oil Development on the
one hand and the other better protection Of the inter
ess those who hold surface rights than does the present
law This is of great Importance in what is called wildcat
territory The plan has the endorsement Of oil interests
catemen and other Of surface rights and it works
no hardship on the state. It is intended TO be more
equitable to all concerned and that ought to be sufficient
accommodation to ensure its passage
There is man in New York who says he has laid

7 noticed recently that a man was
arrested and charged with having I'M
ported liquor illegally into the United
States said p /. Parks. That Is all
right but at the same time I saw that
he was charged also with having VIC
lated the five mile zone law That is
absurd We now have two laws COW
eriag the same situation in one way
The fact that the nation is dr. should
result in the immediate rereal Of the
other law. and I think Il somewhat
unfair that a man should be tried on
two different charges and fale two
penalties for the same offense He
might as well BE tried twice for the
same offense which Is virtually what
will happen in his case Incidentally
there are number OF dead laws or
our books which might very well be
worthless

AMAZON BREAKS DOWN
 BEFORE CHILD'S PICTURE

REM, RUSSIAN LAPLAND, July 5 Correspondence of Associated Press) Among the uniformed B0lsheviki captured by the Allied troops on the Murmansk railway front, where Amer ican railway troops operated for sev- eral months, was woman, Olga Sem enova Petomtzeva, now serving as a cook for a Canadian mess, who pre- sented the strange contrast of an Am azon who cried over baby's photo graph.
 Mrs. Petomtzeva, who is P years old, was taken prisoner by Canadian troops at UrosozerO, when dressed in a Red Guard uniform, trousers and all, and with the Russian ammuni- tion pouches strung over her breasts.
 She said she had left Petrograd on April 4, to join her husband, who was a soldier in a Finnish regiment fighting the Allies on this front. For some time she led the life of soldier with her husband. The latter es- capped at Urosozero.
 Mrs. Petomtzeva broke down and cried, say allied officers, when she was questioned about a scrap book she carried, in which she had pasted pictures, cut from magazines, of many babies. She said her own baby had died and that she had no photograph of him, and that she was trying to find in the magazine a pie ture that resembled him.

BIRTHPLACE OF WAR
 IS AGAIN ASSUMING
 ITS NORMAL ACTIVITIES

SARAJEVO, Bosnia, Aug. 12 (by maiD The war seems likely soon to become a matter of only historical interest even here in SarajevO, where Prnizip threw the bomb which killed the Austrian Archduke Ferdinand and set the world af1ame.
 The summer park at Illidza is crowded on Sunday with holiday makers. The trans and trains run regularly. Recently the city has been the destination of American sailors on leave from Adriatic ports. All visitors in the city find an i'm mense interest in the wonderful Turkish quarter, with it's quaint ba- zaars, where one may buy the most beautiful art goods.
 The civil authorities at Sarajevo are principally Bosnians and Herze- govinans. Many Serbian officers are seen in the city. The Turks are as Turkish, the Jews as Jewish and the Gypsies as Gypsy-like as ever. The half hundred mosques still exist to attract the faithful to their prayers. The Austrians and Germans still struggle to change their colors, and in the cafes the walters often strive at Serbian, which they speak poorly and ask that one speak 'Deutsche."
 The after-war population of Sara jevo is 65,O0O. The city is the capi- tai of Bosnia Herzegovina. The pop.

ulation of the province is divided as follows: S00,0OO Musselmen, 8OO,000 Serbians, 100000 Greats. The wor- shipers of Mah6met are not neces- sarily of Turkish blood; in fact most of them are said really to be Serbians and to speak Serbian. The true facts regarding nationalities in the Balkans cannot be easily determined.

Let us practice the Golden Rule. Every contribution will be appreciat- ed. Every dollar goes directly to the support of the orphan, as all office and overhead expenses are met by private contributions and not taken out of money collected in the drives.

 TO MAKE A TEST
He Intends to Order Para mount Pictures Although They Cost More, For !
 People of Juneau

Many of my patrons" said Manager
 w. D. Gross of the Coliseum theatre, [ have been asking me recently why
 have not been running Paramount
 pictures. Naturally there is a req
 son.
 Possibly a good many people dc
 not know that Paramount pictures
 are in great demand outside and that it is necessary to pay a premium to get them to Alaska. The fact thai they include well-known screen stars make them popular. It is about the
 a person wants to read book. There
 may be just as good or better books written by obscure writers, but the reader generally selects one from an author who is well known, because the reader does not want to take 2 chance. It is much the same with
 moving pictures.
 However have made up my mind to make a thorough test of whether the demand for Paramount pictures is really here. Owing to their greater cost l shall have to slightly raise the admission and give four or more changes a week, and see how it works out. Usually Alas kans demand the best there is go. ing and are willing to pay for ser vice, and I believe that Juneau and Gastineau people are no exception to the rule"
