James Cox, Democrat, Winner
over Republican In
Hot Contest
RXrHE MArcHMAN

IN Commenting upon the possible
appointment Of Harry Shaw OF this
city as member Of the West Vir-
gina Public Service Commission,
tie Clarksburg Exponent refers to
Mr. Shaw as a veteran Of many
political battles in Marion County
and fnrSthe most part a wild and
woody Republican !"
Just what the Inference is in any
regard 70 any Republican being
Wild and woody, particularly Harry
shaw Is quite beyond the scope Of
the writer's imagination.
M Shaw is a very docile sort
nf d chap, except at times when
~. N. Nicely and the great Pala-
timer get into an argument during
a trial or when they meet under
the auspices OF the League Of Wo-
men Voters to discuss and to in.
terpret the state primary law.
MI Shaw Is not wild. A great
adtnirer OF the athletes at East
Side High School and head OF the
board Of education In Union In
dependent School District, Mr..
shaw. even after a great football
OF basketballE victory, has showi.
mo- wild tendencies and has never
been placed IN Jail for climbing
telegraph poles or biting automo.
bifes by way OF showing his ap.
probation OF the victory achieved.
The Daniel Webster OF Morgan
town avenue Is not wild, and one
cam ret him a bit excited by tell.
ing him that Governor Morgan Is
about 70 name him as a member
pf the West Virginia Public Ser
VICE Commission. He is not even
Interested.
So far as Mr.. Shaw being woody
IS concerned, that is another false
statement. He Is one OF the most
immaculate men in the city and
above all things insists that his
hair be cut Just SO. We fear the
political genius OF the Exponent
has passed snap judgment In or
der togget to press In time.

OF PREVENTION

Insurance Commissioner G. Walden
Smith said Thursday that the CO.
operation, not only upon the part OF
the municipal officers but of the ex-
hibitors of moving picture shows in
complying with the regulations of the
department in the recent campaign
to safeguard exhibitions of this char
acter, was most gratifying.
There has been general re
vamping and setting Of their houses
in order upon the part of all concern
cd continued Commissioner Smith.
Recently the arrest of several
violators vas ordered, but upon their
agreement to remedy the omissions
existent and correct future activities
along this line, the cases were held
in suspense.
THAT there has been a general i'm
provement all along the line is I'M
deniable, and while many of the first
class houses have previously been
equipped with the very latest devices
for safety, many of the smaller houses
were crude in their equipments. and
the department would not cease it's
vigilance in this direction until the
fullest measure of prevention and
protection had been afforded"

WANTS PARDON

A petition for the pardon of Charles
Dyer of Burnham, who is serving a
sentence of 10 months in the Waldo
county Jail at Belfast, was received at
the Department of State Thursday. \
hearing on the petition will be as
signed at the session of the governor
ard council which will be held next
Tuesday.
Dyer in his petition states that the
crime of which he was convicted was
simple assault without any battery
whatever and the sentence of 10
months at hard labor in the county
jail was excessive; punishment for
the crime; that he has been sufficient
ly punished; that never previously
had he ever been charged with any
infraction of the criminal laws; and
that the extension of executive Gle
mency is consistent with public inter-
est and his own welfare.
Russell & Thornton of Belfast are
the counsel for the petitioners.

D. w. Griffith's perturbation of
Way Down East" based on the stage
play by Lottie Blair Parker, which for
the past 90 years was one of the rural
classics. of the American theatre, will
be presented at the Opera House on
Monday next for four days with the
following cast: Lillian Gish, Richard
Barthelmess. Mary Hay. Burr McIn-
tosh, Lowell Sherman, Creighton Hale.
Mrs. Morgan Belmont, Kate Bruce Ed
gar Nelson. George Neville, Viva Og-
den, Porter Strong, Josephine Ber-
nard, Mrs. David Landau, Patricia
Fruen, Florence Short, Emily Fitzroy
and Myrtle Sutch.
Mr.. Griffiths production Of "Way
Down East" represents 10-months
work of the most exacting character,
for in his screen version Of the story
he has endeavored to follow closely
the narrative of the stage play, with
here and there depression for the
purpose of dramatic value or elabora-
ton.
Way Down East" is the biggest
production Mr.. Griffith has made. Sew
eral Griffith innovations are prom
ised, including a thrilling snowstorm
and genuine New England ice break
on the river.
Following the premiere performance,
the production will be offered daily,
matinee and evening. There will be a
special music program.-Adv.

| of their own, or the State must put
into effect a land-credit plan under
which insolvent farmers can borrow,
as we'll as solvent ones. A scheme
under which a farmer could borrow
at low rates of interest up to fifty
per cent of the value of his land,
which is the plan of our State of
Maine act, is of great benefit to the
solvent farmer, but it still leaves
the man without means where he now
is,-workng for solvent farmers or
as tenants.
1T seems to be that this land
question, the problem of reviving
farming, together with the trans
portation to the consumer of food
supplies at a reasonable rate, is one
of the most serious problems we are
facing today in this country. 1t must
be remembered that farming is the
basic industry. A city might be
destroyed and the country surround

conditions affect them as much as

fore the war, in a period of seven
years, placed on the land $4,000
tenants in Ireland who have become
farm owners and who have eighty
seven years in which to pay back the
government.
MANY farmers believe that any
system of rural credits is an evil and
they are under the impression that
the best thing a farmer can do is to
keep out of debt Of any kind. If a
business man followed this plan he
would require a surplus bank account
subject to call, and therefore on de-
post without interest. But while
the farmers do not believe in going
into debt, they are often actually
having credit extended to them on
their store bills, for fertilizer and

the forthcoming photoplay, a Nazi-
nova production, quickly reveals to
the novice that the celebrated dram
atist made use of the title to indi-
cate the character of Nora, the. doll
daughter of a man who believed that
every woman should be subservient
in all ways to her father, and the
doll-like child-wife of a man who
believes that a husbands every wish
and whm should be as law to his
wife.
Brought up in this atmosphere
Nora finds no difficulty in moulding
herself, or allowing herself to be
moulded, as her husband might wish.
But when the great crisis in her life
forced her to depend upon herself, to
use her own initiative, she found
herself liable to the criminal law in
meeting the situation. Then when
exposure comes, and her illusions as
to her husband are shattered and
scattered to the four winds, she
finds that the ideals she had built
up around him are all false when
she learns that he turns against her
even though she acted only to save
his life, the shock is such that she
sees all the error in her upbringing,
sees that she has lived the life of
a doll wife; that she has been rearing
her own children as doll-children,
satisfied merely in dressing them
prettily and keeping them physically
happy.
Then she realizes that she has
been cheated of the right that Ibsen
maintains is that of every woman
the right to be educated that her
own individuality may have an OPP
portunity of expression; that she may
develop her own personality along
lines her conscience may dictate."-

Maine farmers may have the benefit
of a reasonable rate Of interest.
IF we only realize it Maine is just
at the point of coming into its own,
agriculturally speaking. The manu-
featuring of the United States is
slowly moving toward the interior
of the country where fuel and the
bulk of manufacturing materials are
produced. New England and the At
lantic seaport states now produce
less than half the country's goods.
The middle west, long the center of
production of raw materials, eSpec-
tally food. is producing an ever
greater percentage of our manufac-
tured articles. In 20 years the fol-
lowing increases in the value of
manufactured goods has come about
in the following states, according to
figures compiled by the City National
Bank of New York:
Value of Manufactured Goods
Ohio. 1900, $749,OOO,OO0; 1920,
50. 100, 100000: Michigan, 1900, $500
100000 1920. 81, 466. 100000; Califor-
MIA, 1900, $25O, 100000; 1920, $1,000
100000.
Manufacturing attracts congested
population. This automatically in
creases land values. AS land values
increase on the level and easily titled
lands of the middle west prices of
food become higher. AS population
increases there, less food will be
sent east. Names opportunity is
growing greater with the years. for
here we have still comparatively
small population to our great area
and lands are still low in price. If
we will craps this opportunity agri-
