TURN TO THE RIGHT"
At ELKS MARCH 1857

It is with extreme satisfaction that
the management of the E,ikS rheater
announces the booking OF Turn to the
Right the sensational comedy sue
cess now playing a return engagement
at the Columbia theater San Francisco.
Practically the same cast that intro
duced the play 10 California is still
with it and the presentation here will
lack nothing of the charm and sparkle
that captivate6 the cities visited on its
first tour. The date is Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday matinee, March %,
&c and 81.
Turn to the Right enjoys the dis
tinction of having broken more records
than any other American comedy, with
the possible exceptions of THE Old
Homestead" 1t ran concurrently in
New York and Chicago for a solid year
in Boston six months and Philadelphia
five months. During its first engage
rnent of four weeks at the Columbia
theater. San Francisco, five extra mat
inees We're given to accommodate the
thousands turned away from the regu-
sixty performances al the Columbia at
the conclusion of its present run.
Another distinction enjoyed by the
comedy is that it has never been pre-
scented by a mo. ." company The
original cast that introduced the play
to California. including William Foran.
Maiude Huntley, Charles w. Goodrich
and George S. Pelyin. has held prac-
tically intact and this is the only or
ganization on tour.
In atmosphere and theme Turn to
the Right" reminds of Winchell
Smiths earlier masterpiece. 1.-THE For
tune Hunter" but it has been vastly
more successful and is in every sense a
better play.

Many magnificent scenes are included

nance and adventure blend spiendidly
to keep the pitch of suspense to a. high

the heroine marries the man she loves,
there is not a dull moment in the play.
The feature film will be shown with
special music by the Columbia or

announcement yesterday by Corpora

present as one of the group.
The gathering is representative of
state and county elective officials,
whose salaries are fixed by the con-

included, for the reason that their
salaries may be raised by legislative
act. Practically all of the salaries of

stated, although many appointive Of

FOUND NOT GUILTY
Of P. 0. ROBBERY
HELD FOR THE j. s.

After being found not guilty by
Jury of the charge of blowing the safe
with intent to commit robbery in the
postoffice at the store of II. H Nc
Neil at TolleSon Frank Hendricks and
Frank Campbell were detained by the
sheriff's office last evening pending
the arrival OF a federal warrant on the
same charge. The case has occupied
the better part of two days in the SUI
perior court before Judge Stanford.
The jury was out about three hours
and returned a verdict at 1920 o'clock
last night. Hendricks took the stand
late in the afternoon. Campbell did
not testify. Hendricks denied the
charge and explained their presence in
the adobe hut near Tol1eson where
they were arrested after being trailed
there by Deputy Sheriff Al Dewitt, by
by saying that they had sought shelter
from the rain while on the way to
buckeye in search of work.
The safe in the postoffice at Tolle-
son store was blown by two explosions
on the night of January 4 but the
charge did not loosen the lock and the
contents remained untouched. II. II.
Mcneil, testified that IS had been
taken from the cash register. A brace
and bit were found on the trail leading
to the hut from the store. A piece of
soap, finger prints and other circum-
stantial evidence were introduced by
the state. Campbell and Hendricks

get more than he does. Two appoint
i've officials of the state board of pub
lie institutions are paid $4,000 year.
Democratic Flavor
According to Chairman Johnson, the
tentative plans provide for a salary
budget to pay the governor and SUI
preme court justices $500 a year each,
$4,000 per year for most of the other
executive officials and $500 or $4,000
for the secretary of state and the at
torney general. Other salary provisions
are being worked out.
Although the group of which Com
missioner Johnson is chairman has a
strongly democratic flavor, the chair
man quotes the approval of Allan b.
JayneS, republican national commit
teeman for Arizona. as saying that
both parties ought to be interested in
the movement, as the present salaries
are too small to attract the kind of
men whom the people want in the Of
fees
The salary question came into pub
lie notice in semi-official form last
December IL, when the state tax COM
missioners and the states county as
SCISSORS met in convention at Yuma
At that time it was proposed to ask
Governor Campbell to recommend to
the recent special session of the legiS-
lature that measures be taken by that
body to make up a new salary schedule
Campbells determination to confine
the session to one issue prevented the
contamination of the plan, SO the
present undertaking was substituted.
Effect Organization
The group met late Tuesday after
noon at the corporation commission
chambers, appointed Commissioner
Johnson as chairman, and effected an
organization. A committee was APP
pointed to draft a set of Recommended
lions for submitta.l to the people an
initiative measure, and another meet
ing is to be called whenever the COM
mittee is ready to report. II that pro-
posed measure carries, its benefits
will be available TO present office
holders after next January 1.
Efforts were made Tuesday night to
withhold the news until the plans were
shaped UP into more definite form,
hut by yesterday morning the report
of the meeting had spread broadcast
and it was deemed advisable then to
make everything public.
The governors office and the SUI
pIeme court We're among the depart
rncnts not represented at the meeting.
Ch1cf Justice D. L. Cunningham, mem
Der of the committee that drafted the
state constitution, said yesterday that
the salaries as laid down 20 years ago
were entirely satisfactory then, and
that no one could foresee the world
changes that have happened since.
The chief justice does not say that the
salary budget should be changed, but
he does say that the salaries are in
adequate for the times and that he IS

end OF this year.
