''THE SPOILERS" SHOWN
 AT EMPRESS TOMORROW

Tomorrow night at the Empress comes the most elaborate, the most realistic picture of the northland ever produced; the most talked about picture of it's time, based on the greatest story of Alaskan life and the early days of Nome ever written, "The Spoilers"
 For the first time since it's re- lease, this production has been made available for Alaska. The print now belng shown is revised production Of the original edition. It is bigger and better in every respect. Char acters, scenes and situations have been improved upon. Details have been added which portray the story more vividly than is in the power of human pen.
 It is massive production, in eight and one-half reels-a picture that is near and dear to all those who re- member Nome in the bygone days a picture that has astounded millions by it's vividness, the natural manner and sequence with which it unfolds, and the daringness of it's thrilling situations.
 Rex Beach personally supervised every detail in it's minutest part Nothing has been left undone to make "The Spoilers' the crowning achievement of a lifetime of effort,

The bride was gowned in white stain
and wore a veil of white tulle and
roses, sweetheart roses and lilies of
the valley. She was attended by her

a dress of jade canton crepe and car
ried a beautiful bouquet Of Ophelia

contracting parties and friends sat
down to tables decorated in pink and
white with roses and smilax, and were
served a delicious luncheon by the

The dye tariff is the storm-center in

to attach any significance to the fact
that a former congressman, and rich
from trading In German dyes, has
made the biggest noise Of all against
American dyes. Patient America gives
such occurrences frst-page space in its
newspapers. and a whole lot Of tickle
citizens echo the cry that "they want
German dyes because they are better

display of bad memory seeks to re-
verse the things we said during the
war about what we would do to the
commerce Of Germany after the war.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
BY ]. e. Jones.

Before the war, according to the tar,
III commissions report of 1915, there
were exactly seven concerns engaged
in making dyes in the United States.
In the 1920 report, after six years of
total embargo, there were shown So.
An Ohio dye manufacturer told the
senate finance committee that 'this
talk about German dyes being superior
to those made in America Is pro bunco
pub1ico." He said that the American
dye manufacturers are making fine
Roadway in establishing the industry
In this country. Germany, the witness
declared, is carrying on a campaign
OF propaganda defaming the American
made dyes. He told the senators: IF
you don't give us an embargo. please
give US time to liQuidate our business
Il has been brought out in the hear
lngs that Great Britain. France. Italy
md Japan have either imposed an en-
largo against German dyes or a hcens-
ne sysesS: protect their y dye
industries. The concerns that have

lions throughout the United States to
determine the truth of his claim that
the appropriations made by congress
have been used and expended lin an
e~xtravagant and w~asteful manner"
1t is fair to say that the views of
Senator King do not represent the
general attitude of official Washing
ton, and he will have plenty of trou-
BILE with his resolution, before he is
able to convince his colleagues from
states that have the best kind Of
roads that the work is not being well
and conscientously done.
The war finance corporation has
been empowered by congress to Issue
bonds for ST. 500, 600, 900, and use a
billion dollars Of the money to aid
the farmers in exporting their prod
ucts. There was a lot Of talk in con
gress about this legislation, and all
hoped that it would be helpful to the
farmers in their present difficulties.
The movement of agricultural crops
in the domestic markets and overseas
to foreign has been very
heavy in recent months, and this is
likely to be still further accelerated by
strings for the purpose Of financing
the farmers. The heavy crop move
ments at the greatly depressed prices
indicate that the farmers of the coun-
try who have been holding their grain
and porlce are unloading, notwith-
standing the depressed markets. The
Chicago stock yards have recently
been receiving more cattle han they
could handle, and they have been ask
ing producers not to continue the
heavy shipments. The whole process
of farm business indicates that the
farmers have their backs to the wall,
and must get money, no matter how
great may be their sacrifices.
1t seems probable that the farming
interests are expecting too much from
the recent legislation referred to
above. The billion dollars of author
lied financing is not likely to effect
the prices of produce; since it repre-
sents merely a form of banking on
a large scale. The cotton growers of

need most is higher prices. And that
is something that congress does not

Why. they don't ask fer charity but

The cost? If we're so blamed hard up
where do we get the dough
To build the warships, guns an sech

Would pay the compensation bill an

But say We need the fghtin' ships

A little more, do you suppose 'twould
