TOM MIX COMES
IN "THE TEXAN''

Tom Mix is said to loosen up a
whole bagful of new stunts in 'The
Texan" his William Fox latest,
which opens up at the Dixie Theatre
next Saturday, April 30. Mix will
have some job on his hands living
up to his advance notices on this
picture; but he always makes good,
and it is safe to predict that this
picture will be no exception. James
B. Hendryx wrote the story Lynn
Reynolds directed the film and
Gloria Hope, the Titian-haired beauty
is the leading woman.
A picture "of the cattle country
| and the Mountains red-blooded,
romantic story of the great open
spaces; of men who do things and
Of women who are brave; a tale at
once turbulent and tender, impas-
stoned but restrained" Such is the
producers appraisal of "The Texan,
Tom Mix's latest William Fox photo
drama, which is booked for the
Dixie Theatre next Saturday, April
80. The picture was directed by
Lynn F. Reynolds, and is based on

ON CRIME.

Rather let us consider ourselves
deceived, than that the whole world
has been imposed upon"
Punishment is the antidote to crime
Nevertheless, it must be borne in mind
that it is not the enormity of punish
ment that will make crime cease, rath-
er 1t is the certainty of it.
When, in medieval times sheep
stealers and pick pockets were hang
ed for their respective crimes-the
most adroit pocket picking was ac-
complished within a few yards of the
gallows--and II was not until the eff
fieiency of authorities proved itself
and the chances of escaping without
a penalty were reduced to a minimum
were those crimes reduced to any no.
ticeable extent.
The gambling spirit of an even
chance Is inherent in human nature.
Even the most ignorant of criminals
will not take a chance, II the odds are
sufficiently against the chance OF non
detection.
Just as even a half-wit or lower
animal will not jumr from a cliff or
high building when nature or instinct
Is working in restraint, so will the
terminal cease from his or her evil
intent IL the probability will be failure
and ruin.
This theory Is closely allied with
human Justice and we must not allow
even good theology 10 be misunder-
stood.
Hall Game has said. Moral respon-
sibility; I'm sick of this sentimental
talk about moral responsibility-man 3
responsibility for the conduct OF wo-
man. and all the rest OF IL. The per-
son who commits the crime Is the
criminal-that's the only foundation OF
law and order II we had TO 20 back
for tie first causes OF crime we should
have to do as the churchmen do-go
back to che Garden of Eden and lay
all the crimes OF the world on the
sins Of Adam. That may be good the
ology, but as a theory Of human JUS
tice. it's nonsense.

EMERGENCY TARIFF

Republican representatives are pre-
pairing a new tariff measure to take
the place of the emergency tariff,
which was vetoed by President VIII
son during tho closing days OF the last
administration. Mr. wilson's reasons
for vetoing the Fordney measure will
apply equally we'll to the proposed
tariff measure and for that reason are
of vital interest at the present time.
In his veto message the then presi-
dent said;
l return herewith without my ap-
prevail II. r. 1925, an act imposing
temporary duties upon certain agricul-
tural products TO meet present emer-
gencies, to provide revenue, and for
other purposes
The title OF this measure indicates
that it has several purposes. The re-
port OF the cop1mitte on ways and
means reveals that it's principal OBJ
ject IS to furnish relief 20 certain pro-
duccrs In the nation who have been
unable to discover satisfactory mar
kets in foreign countries for their pro-
ducts and whose prices have fallen.
Very little reflection would lead any
one to conclude that the measure
would not furnish In any substantial
degree the relief sought by the produc-
ers of most of the staple commodities
which Ii covers. This Nation has been
for very many years IA large exporter
of agricultural products. For nearly a
generation before ii entered the Euro
peau war its exports exceeded its i'm
ports OF agricultural commodities by
from approximately $20O.00O,OOO to
more than 100000 600. In recent years
this excess has greatly increased, and
In 1913 reached the huge total of ST.
904, $4,000. The excess OF exports Of
staple products IS especially marked.
In 1913 the Nation imported 3,4S1
burhel5 Of wheat valued at s67O,93l.
and in 1920. 35.S4S.64S bushels worth
S7j. 39S.s34. while il exported IN 1918.

grimly, putting his hand in his pocket
and taking out a bill.
In the shifting of the crowd we had
not noticed that our aggressive friend
with her companions, were right in
front of us. I heard her high pitched,
rasping voice expostulating with the
head waiter. standing near the door,
whose rowing eyes I knew had seen
Dicky's hand go into his pocket.
Il demand that you let me in this
dining ROOM" my militant defender
said. There must be tables waiting;
there's one right over there now" as
she saw the people at the farther table
rise from their seats.
1 think Dicky's natural eagerness to
get a table was intensified by his de-
sire to get even with the woman who
had rebuked him. At any rate, ut the
first sound of her voice I saw him
substitute another bill for the one he
had first drawn out. Then he held the
second one, with just its denomination
showing between his fingers, before
the glistening Seyes of the head waiter.
That worthy did not hesitate a mo-
ment. He spoke preemptorily, finally,
to the importuning woman.
" Scuse me, Missus, but I can't give
you that able nohow; dat table is
promised to dis gentleman right be-
hind YOU"
Fright this way, Mr.. Jones, you're
table just ready for yoh." 4
With a dexterous movement. and
without actually touching her, the man
cleared a passage for Dicky and me to
pass into the dining room, and then,
totally ignoring the woman's eXpostu-
Iations, he ushered Dicky and me to
the table and bowed us into our seats.
High and shrill above the babel in
the dining room we heard the woman's
voice:
Il shall appeal to the management;
that mans name is no more Jones than
mine is. He had not engaged that ia
BILE at all. He simply bribed you TO
give it to him. Come back here, I tell
you"
But the waiter, not at all perturbed,
was grinning broadly. as he summoned
another man to take our order.
Dat woman she jest materially bust
if she don look OUT he said TO DiCky,
as he sauntered back toward the wo-
man.
Dicky was in high good humor as he
sank into his seat and began 10 study
the menu card. Just listen 70 the old
dame row it," he said gleefully.
But my conscience troubled me.
After all, DiclIy, you can't blame her"
said timidly. "She was there before
us, and should have had the table"
Two Bags Alike.
'Nonsense!" Dicky retCrted, there is
no question of precedence where a
head waiter with grin like that IS
concerned. The only rule he knows
is the amount Of the tip that he push
es down into his jeans"
Here, George, take care of this for
me" He indicated as he spoke the

unlucky bag which had been the inno-
cent cause of his irritation with me
over our delayed luncheon.
The dusky waiter-Dicky always
called every waiter George-stopped
for the bag, and I saw him thrust it
carelessly under a serving table some
distance away.
Are you sure that is safe. Dicky?'
I protested. He might easily get that
bag mixed with some other one"
For heaven sake, Madge!" the ex-
pletive was accompanied by one Of
Dicky's blacklist frowns, do quit wor-
rying about everything and nothing.
You are the original little kill-joy."
Although l was distinctly worried
over the bag, which was an expensive
one, and contained the little personal
accessories of the toilet, many Of them
gifts, which I cherished, I said Moth
ing more. I told myself grimly that
if I saw some one walk off with the
bag l would not raise my voice in pros
test.
And to this determination I adhered
even when a few minutes later I saw
the dusky George place under the
serving table another very like it, be-
longing to the aggressive woman with
whom DiclIy had already clashed twice.

to place themselves on an export basis.
1t would stand In the way of the nor
NAL reimbursement OF business condi-
tions Throughout the world, which is
as vital to the welfare of this coun-
try as to that of all the other nations.
The United States has a duty to it
self as well as to the world, and it can
discharge this duty by widening, not
by contra citing, it's world markets.
This measure has only slight interest
so far as its prospective revenue yields
are concerned. It is estimated that
the aggregate addition to the Nations
income from its operation for 10
months would be less than s72,000,000,
and of this more than half would arise
from the proposed duty on sugar. OBJ
viously, this and much more can be
secured in ways known to the con-
gress, which would be vastly less bur-
densome to the American consumer
and American industry.
The rates, however, have & peculiar
interest. In practically every case they
either equal or exceed those establish
ed under the Payne Aldrich act, in
which the principle of protection
reached it's high-water mark, and the
enactment of which was followed by
an effective exhibition of protests on
the part of the majority of the Amer
lean people. I do not believe that the
sober judgment of the masses of the
people of the Nation, or by this meas
ure, will sanction a return, especially
in view of conditions which lend even
less justification for such action, to
a policy of legislation for selfish in
terests which will foster monopoly and
increase the disposition to look upon
the government as an instrument for
private gain instead of AN instrument
for the promotion of the general well
being. Such a policy is antagonistic
to the fundamental principle of equal
and exact justice to all, and can only
serve to revive the feeling of irrita-
ton on the part of the great masses
of the people and of lack of confidence
in the motives of rulers and the results
OF government.

have never seen Dicky quite so
taken aback as he was when the mill
tant middle-aged woman upon the
river boat administered the rebuke to
him about his impatience at the crowd
before the dining rom door.
When we had come down from the
upper deck to luncheon, only TO find
the dining room full. and a long line Of
impatient jostlihg men and women eX-
tending down the corridor, Dicky had
told me that our delay in getting a
seat was due to the Is minutes 1 had
spent in the dressing room; that If /
had not gone there we would have been
in plenty of time.
He had spoken roughly, with the i'm
patient rudeness which he so often
uses when inconvinced. And with
whitening emphasis in her tones the
middle-aged woman standing near us
had spoken directly at Dicky and in
formed him that the same crowd had
been in front of the door for over half
an hour.
could not help being amused at the
womans championship of me, but l
was not particularly grateful for it. l
have always had a distinct dislike for
any comment on or interference in my
affairs by any one not directly con-
cerned. But Dicky's face would have
afforded amusement to the most con-
firmed misanthrope. Astonishment at
the womans words, Indignation at evil

cry, struggled in his face with the
chagrin l knew he felt at having me
find out that my stay in the dressing
room was not responsible for our de-
lay at luncheon
He turned his back squarely upon
the woman, and with a muttered eX-
clamatfon to me, moved away from her
vicinity. OF course, followed him, for
there was nothing else to do, but, as
I went, l felt the keen eyes of my ag-
gressive sympathizer fixed upon by re-
treating back. I knew that she pitied
me as a poor spirited creature.
Il seemed hours that we waited in
the line, but, in reality, it was but 80
or 90 minutes before the crowd dimin-
ished so we could see into the dining
room Every table was filled TO It's
capacity, but at a corner table near
the window we could see the people
getting ready TO depart.
