l.everino, representing the defend

venue; that Morrow county Is not the
most convenient county to try the
case, but on the other hand Is the
most inconvenient; that n large num-
her OF stockholders of the Knox Tire

ty, and that they would be prejudiced
to sit In the cases.

INDEPENDENT PICTURE
REVIEWER HAS HIGH PRAISE

Harrison, the New York moving

the reputation of being an independ-
ent because he says what he thinks
about pictures regardless of who
likes it or doesn't like it, has this to
says of "Miss Lulu Bett," the pic
ture offering for tomorrow night at
the American Airdome:
IF all pictures ran up as high a
score as does Miss Lulu Bett,
reviewing them would be an un-
alleged joy; unfortunately such is
far from being the case. Miss Lulu
Bett' fairly brims over with human
interest, pathos, and the hard-to-
duplicate comedy touches of Theo.
dore Roberts.
Miss Lulu Bett' affords excel.
lent entertainment of the wholesome
sort that every member of the fam
lily can enjoy. The acting and d.
recting are up to snuff every min
ute; and the inimitable Theodore
Roberts outdoes himself, if possible
in this picture"

LAssEN HIGHWAY
WORKERS BUSY

In an effort to interest the people
of northern California in the build
ing of the Lassen highway from VIM
nemucca to DEMO and thence to
Cedarville in Modoc county, COM
mittee headed by George P. Arm
strong of Reno, has been appointed
by the Modoc county supervisors to
promote the enterprise and to secure
funds.
1t is the declaration of the Modoc
county people that the road is the
only all-winter highway into North
ern California and the improvement
of the road would mean the bring
ing of thousands of tourists into
Northern California that now take
the southern route to Los Angeles
At a road meeting in Winnie
mucca several weeks ago the build
ing of the road was urged. 1t runs
northwest from Winnemucca to the
Oregon line and thence through the
Cedarville pass between the Sierra
Nevada and Siskiyou mountains and
down the Pitt river at an elevation
slightly greater than that of Winnie
mucca.
DIR. E. F. Auble is secretary of
the committee with ]. E. Niles, DR..
S. D. Conwell and o. D. Morgan
as members.
"The development of this road"
said Mr.. Armstrong, would be of
special benefit to Modoc county and
all that district but it would also be
of great benefit to Reno as it would
serve to draw a large part of the
tourist traffic now going by the
southern route over the northern
part Of the state and Reno would
be visited by many more tourists
than it is today. We expect to
raise sufficient funds in northern
California to build a good road" y

STRAW VOTE SHOWS
|. FOR PROHIBITION

The votes thus far tabulated il
the literary Digest's poll of the ma
tion on the question of prohibition
and the soldiers bonus show sub
stantial anti-prohibition majority, il
the case of prohibition vote, and {
drawn battle on the bonus.
The first hundred thousand ballots
resulted as follows:
Prohibition
Do you favor the continuance
and strict enforcement of the eigh
teenth amendment and Volsteat
law?
Those in favor-32 ,445.
Do you favor a modification OF
the Volstead law to permit lighi
wines and beers?
Those in favor-39,665
Do you favor a repeal of the
prohibition amendment?
Those in favor-22,547.
Soldiers Bonus
Do you favor a federal bonus fol
all American soldiers and sailors
who wore the uniform during the
world war?
Yes-46,6O9; No-47, AGO.
These figures are from the TO-
100000 poll being taken by the
Digest, considered one of the most
important services this publication
has rendered to the nation in this
way. 1t will be remembered that
previous to the last presidential
election the Digest polled the nation
in presidential primary" and that
the result clearly revealed the Re.
publican landslide which followed
Unquestionably the result of the
poll being taken now will have an
important bearing on the disposition
congress finally makes of the pro-
hibition and bonus issues, as ire
mendous, representative vote OF
100000 people will show the
way the wind is blowing on these
two important national questions.
Although the figures for the first
100, 900 on prohibition are decidedly
damp it is pointed out in an analysis
of the returns that this vote comes
principally from the far eastern
states, New England, the middle At
lantiv and the east north central
and that the driest states, those in
the middle west and south, and the
west north central states, have not
yet been heard from in force.
Similarly the vote on the bonus
comes principally from the east, and
the western states, generally con-
sidered to be more favorable to the
bonus, have not yet reported to
any important degree,

lated: One for prohibition en-

for repeal, three mo" on the bonus
