"Riddle GaWne"

Thos. II. Ince presents William S.
Hart as Riddle Gawne, the strangest
man in the world. People thought it
was best to leave him strictly alone.
They feared the binding glance in
those Satanic eyes and the grim, thin,
tightly compressed lips.
But love had not always been a
stranger to Riddle" Gawne. 1t was
whispered that his earlier life had
been one of devotion to a younger
brother, the only pal he'd ever had.
Then the brother was mysteriously
murdered, and in his dying breath
told the name of his assassin"
Riddle" Gawne had dedicated his
life to finding the murderer. One day,
way out in the desert, ninety miles
from nowhere, he met the man"
But Riddle" Gawne's leg was broken.
How did he succeed in wreaking the
terrible vengeance that caused the
whole state to wonder? And why
was riddle" Gawne soOn married to
a beautiful girl from the East?

Huge mass meetings are being held
at which laborers are being told that
they are entitled as matter OF right
to- their abnormal wages-and very

many cases are receiving more wages
than firemen, policemen. many clergy

people generally seemed concerned al
most exclusively with their daily local
affairs and were giving little thought
or care about fundamental. national
or international problems which we
must face and settle if civilization is
to be preserved.
THE situation calls for national ac-
ton. Not since the free silver cam
paign has there been such a definite
need for the sane incubation of some
economic thinking in this country.
American people are fair, and If the
facts are presented to them, there can
be no doubt of the result.
at must be made clear that there Is
an unesca pab1e relationship between
wages and the cost of production and
that only thru increased effort can
enough commodities be produced, to
establish an equilibrium between a
world supply and a world demand.
and thus, bring about lower prices.
Should See the Crisis
And the vitality important fact to
bring home to the mind of every work
ing man is that the effort to increase
production is not to take out of his
increased effort an increased profit

that this increased effort will yield
and is yielding to the working man ir

prosperity of this nation that the bust

be aroused to the nature of the crisi:
which confronts the country. In ar
organized effort which should b.
made to meet this crisis an effor
