today and tomorrow is the picture
version of Robert McLaughlin's ia
nous playa story that deals with
and strikes directly at human sym
pathies.
Elijah Bradshaw, the most power
full man in Edinburg. organizes a re,
form movement to rid the city of its
evils as had been done in every age
before him. But his own daughter has
stepped to the brink Of ruin and the
discovery brushes him.
AS he sinks into a stupor the Mag
dalene comes to him. She leads him
through a panorama of life in which
she reveals to the stern man the de-
spair and hardships he is bringing to
others. But it is not until misery is
driven home to him that charity finds
a way into his heart. The Magdalene
shows him his own daughter, cast out
and homeless, seeking refuge from the
mob.
Then he awakes to find that he has
been dreaming. But the Magdalene
has Sown the seed OF charity. he re-
Tents and takes his diughter back and
the reform movement he had started
is put aside.
The Essanay-Chaplin film, "The
Bank" which will be presented at the
Washington theatre on Wednesday
and Thursday is the first showing on
the prints of this picture. The film
was made three years ago when Chap
lin was at the heighth Of his laugh
making powers, and is declared by
critics to be one of the best pictures
which the comedian ever produced, If
not the best. 1t is, old enough to be
new to a large number and will be
comparatively fresh to those who
viewed it before.
In fact, this is one of Chaplin's COM
edy classics, and like a good book, is
enjoyed over and over again. Every
one who viewed the first of a series of
four Chaplin's re-issued by Essanay,
"A Night in the Show" declared that
they enjoyed it as much as when seen
for the first time.

ZURICH MAKES
COMPLAINT At.
RAILWAY SERVICE.

Attorney Anthony Jurich, DeiieV-
inc that the Nevada Northern Rail

Utility should make every effort to
continue the train service which is
tue only artery of communication be-
tweeh Ely and the outside and

Dear Sir The Nevada Northern
Railway company has issued TO the
public a statement to the effect that
il will not operate its main line train

statements have been issued to the
effect that after Saturday, August 8.

ing until further notice.
II believe that this action of the
railway company in this respect is
in violation of the statutes as we'll
as the law OF the state and the rules
and regulations of your commission.
As a railroad is a public utility, IL
comes within your Jurisdiction and
think il is proper for you to issue an
order commanding the railroad TO
Immediately re-instate the service.
The people of this community.
numbering between eight and ten
thousand, depend for the necessities
Of life upon this railroad and I can
not concede that IL can arbitrarily
cease operating. While the trouble
is caused by q dispute between the
company and its employees. neyerthe-
less the railroad owes a duty to the
publie and regardless of what the dis
pute may be. IL should be compelled
10 render proper service.
You can consider this letter az
complaint upon my part as resi-
dent, citizen and taxpayer of this
eounty

Relative to the above and as may
be noted elsewhere In this issue OF
the News, the railway company an
nounees that until further notice the
Cobre-Ely passenger train will be run

days. The contingencies of the strike
as associated with union rules and
contracts with employees, place the

In the present contest both sides
appear to be going strictly In accord
