Canadian Settings.
The Nelson today has booked Tom
Mix. the daring William Fox horse
man of plain and hill. in 1.-THE Wilder
ness Trail" a photoplay from the
well known book by Frank Williams,
which portrays delightfully."- the life Of
the Canadian fur region. The seen
cry alone in this play is declared to be
well worth seeing-a wild country Of
forests and deep SHOWS. In this set
ting Tom Mix will perform new ex-
plolts that will make the heart OF the
spectator beat faster.
The old battle between love and
duty, in which Tom Mix more than
once defies death, centers round a
new leading lady, Colleen Moore, who
will surely be pretty to look at in her
frrs. enjoying long sleigh rides in the
snow behind team of huskies, and
who will show how a real girl acts
when she is saved from. death and
dtshonor by strong man. Many will
recall Miss Moore as a petite and
charming actress.

plot is easily followed and has enter

It go over good. Miss Bara is cast In
role that suits her perfectly and
gives her good opportunity to wear

and dramatic climax to the plot when
Theda Bara as Marie Lohr, q beaut-
full American girl, is at length in the

are seen lowering over the place; the

blow up the railroad station, but the

Presidentof Allen Oil Company
 Here Negotiating Leases

commend too highly a con. sistent effort in this direc. tion. Oil men are hungry for news of new fields, but i t m u S t be such as may be depended upon.
 Even a small well at one of the tests now under way will bring to the field repre- sentatives of practically all the bigproducing companies. You have a virgin field here and it certainly is worthy of development with excellent prospects, although no cer- tainty, of securing produc- ton.
 I am leaving Friday for Texas and will leave our lease interests in the hands of MT. B. T. Spencer, who is also in touch with other in- terests contemplating action in this territory"
 This endorsement of the field by MT. Ritter comes after two previous visits by himself, two by the secre- tary of the company and a similar number by Chief Geologist Craise, and conse- quently is based on a definite knowledge of the field inso- far as may be determined from indications, surface and geology. The fact that this big company is willing to drill this field is in itself an a d d e d encouragement to those who have heretofore confidently believed in the ultimate production of the Holbrook Field, as compan- ies of this character seldom are inclined to operate un- less the chances appear bet ter than the average.
 Confidence in early produc- tion from this field is grow ing daily.

POLITICAL BEE

AHolbrook visitor the past week, no other than Thos. brennan of Phoenix, Secre- tary of the State Democratic Central Committee, has been very much in our midst. What the particular object of Mir. Drennan's visit may be, or whose particular polit- ical bee is being groomed, we know not. Can it be the Wiley Jones boom? Even G. N. Mclean, the old polit- ical war-horse of Phoenix, is in the dark as to the object of Mr. Drennnn syisit. Some of our local politicians, how ever, might be able to in- form us.
