Friday and Saturday-"The Ever
lasting Whisper" starring Tom Mix,
is, beyond question, one of the finest
Mix pictures that have ever reached
the screen. First of all, ''The Ever
lasting Whisper" has a story that is
unusual, written by jackson Gregory,
who is conceded to be one of Ameri-
cas- foremost writers of western fic-
tion. 1t is tale of the rugged North
west, where the everlasting whisper
of the breeze through til, stately pines
draws strong men into the hills and
enchants them. In this setting there
is enacted a thrilling tale of battle
for fortune and a girl-a girl who has
to be tanned like a tigress. Then
there's the cast. Alice Calhoun, known
as the orchid of the screen, plays the
feminine lead opposite Mix. AS the
city-bred society girl, suddenly thrown
into the rigors of the wilderness, she
is in beautiful contrast to her rugged
surroundings. Her dramatic perform
ance leaves nothing to be desired Rob
ert Cain is the villain-and a thor
Oughlyhatable one.

Death Cannot Stop Her Work
Jamestown Sun

Again that dark deep shadow has fallen across
our midst and into its mystic darkness a noble
mother and faithful friend has stepped to join the
ever growing ranks that silent, excepting as
they speak by deeds of the past.
Mrs. Kate Blewett, whose sudden death Satur
day shocked the community, lived beyond the aver
age allotted three score years and ten and lived
them we'll. She found bad spots in that detour
here on earth from eternity places hard to travel
on the trail from the cradle to the grave, as all of
US have found, but she did not grow discouraged
and call this rough old world. Instead, with
willing hands and cheerful mind, she assaulted the
bumps and smoothed the way that others Of human
ity might find the path pleasanter where she
had trod.
Though she shouldered musket, marched
to martial drum sprang to battle at the bugle's
call, Mrs Kate Blewett was noble and heroic sol
der Answering, early in her life, the double call
to motherhood and leadership among the woman
hood of her state, she shrked no duty with either
and died in the front ranks of both. With home
and family her first thought, she nevertheless has
given more time to women's lodge and club work
than perhaps any other woman in the state. Active
for 35 years in community, state and national
affairs of women, she never allowed these affairs
to detract from her first duty to humanity, thu
rearing of family and the keeping Of home
And from the otherwise silent ranks beyond tn.

Not in This Generation

William Seal Carpenter, professor of politics at
Princeton University, advances a plan to abolish
the present system Of national representation. He
would do away with the senate and substitute in its
place form Of representation based en- social and
economic rights.
OF course his plan calls for a Constitutional
Convention. He considers inconsistent with the
spirit Of a democracy that Nevada with popula-
ton Of 10000 should have the same representation
New York with population Of lO,0oo,0o0 He
calls the state divisions artificial and in discussing
his plan says in his book:
"The people Of the United States fall
into six or less distinct groups which
differ in social and economic interests.
For the most part the States which
included in the sectional groupings contain
homogeneous populations. But in
cases the sectional differences cut across
State boundaries. 1t is clear, for example,
that the southeastern counties in Wiscon-
sin, belong to the old Northwest, while the
interests of the rest of the State coincide
with these Of the territory Immediately be-
yond the Mississippi.
"Not only would this new regionalism
enable the various economic interests to
display their strength in the elections, but
it would also make for greater ease in the
decentralization Of administration"
If this nation were to be represented along
social and economic lines. doubtless the scheme of
representation would be less responsive to popular
will than is the Like many school
men, Prof. Carpenter sets up highly complicated
system to take the place of that has worked out
fairly we'll despite some handicaps which not
vital when closely examined.
1t is surprising how well national government
responds to popular will when the occasion arises.
The defeat of the League of Nations plan indicated
how little state lines social economic groups
really count when he welfare Of the Republic is at
stake
Other great national issues have been settled in
the same spirit The present plan of representation
has served reasonably well the national demands.

result Of an encounter between
the police and Ludly in Broad
Alley Southwest last night.
Ludly was shot BY Moore after
the former had stabbed OgIe in
the arm and through the hand
when the policeman tried. to arrest
him. Ludly died in Emergency
Hospital but, . few minutes after
the shooting.
Met Fate Like Brothers
The dead man met the same
fate that his brother Jared in 1923
when the latter was killed in an
encounter with Policeman John
purcell, of the same precinct. at
First and Canal Streets Southwest,
when George Ludly and two other
colored men killed Purcell and
seriously injured Policeman Fl. N.

The ARRAY occurred last night
when Ogle and Acting Sergeant q.
A. Salmons were passing through
Broad Alley and discovered Ludly
fighting with Daisy Hawkins,
colored, 50 years old.
OgIe, it is said. warned Ludly 70
90 home. The latter cOuntered with
a string OF Oaths and the detective
approached him to place him under
arrest.
Ludly then reached in his pocket
and produced q knife with which
he is said to have cut Ogle on the
arm. Drawing the injured member
hack, OgIe made another lunge Tor
the weapon and was stabbed through
the left hand.
Ogle then drew his pistol, and
Ludly fled into Third Street. Two
bullets from Ogle's pistol did not
take effect.
One That Is Fatal
At this juncture Policeman Moore,
who was on his way to the station
house to go on duty. heard the shots
and arrived at Third and G streets
in time to hear Ogle shout that the
fleeing man had stabbed him.
Moore stopped and drew his pistol,
leveled it at the running man
and pulled the trigger, just once.
Ludly plunged forward on his
face and the policeman rushed to
