RAILWAY EMPLOYES . PLAN HUGE STRIKE § OVER LIVING COST (By United Press) Washington, Oct. 11.—The de- mand for a wage increase of probably 25 per cent is contemplated by four of the big railway brotherhoods, Vice President Doak of the trainmen admitted today. Increased cost of living without regard to increase in wages since the war opened will be the base upon which the demands will be made. The first outright move toward opening negotiations with the rail- ways may be taken at the meeting in Ottawa, October 25, if agreed up- on by the conductors, trainmen, fire- men and engineers. The demand will be made by acting in organiza- tion. Doak does not believe a joint convention could get fully under way until early next year.

AT THE ELKO As a harum-scarum child of na- ture, light-hearted and care-free, Blanche Sweet will be seen at the Elko theater tonight in the thrilling Lasky production of “The Storm,” a Paramount picture. The scenes of this unusual drama were laid in the Maine woods and Miss Sweet is seen as a daughter of an absent-minded, retired, old professor. How she falls in love—a cloud is cast over her life, only to be dis- pelled by the man her heart desires is unfolded and explained in an in- tense and interesting manner. Miss Sweet is surrounded by a cast of famous players, headed by Thomas Meighan. Theodore Roberts, Rich- ard Sterling and Chandler House are also included in the cast. Even the many admirers of Doug- las Fairbanks who are familiar with his many daredevil stunts, will gasp at his new thrillers disclosed in “Wild and Wooly,” his newest Art- craft picture at the Elko theater to- morrow and Saturday, matinee and evening. Leaping from a porch of a house on to a moving train that is aver- aging forty miles an hour is but one of the many thrills performed by the athletic star in his latest film. Another startling scene is presented in a fight on horseback in which Douglas proves the victor. This is undoubtedly one of the most remark- able bits of its kind ever staged and shows the daring actor leaping from one galloping pony to struggle with the rider of apother horse going at r CLASSIFIE FOR SALE ‘ FOR SALE—16-inch dry jack pine $1.76 per cord.
