The political revolt } Farmers’ Alliance and the ‘Populist " movement that swept over Kansas | and other states twenty-five years ago has attracted many students of gov- (ernment from other states, Among : the recent arrivals is a correspond- ent for the Kansas City Star, who is now contributing a series of arulcles to his paper. ; This student, who ig not-in the.re- * motest way inflyencea by apy, local duction to his first article: “Twenty-five years ago the Farm- ers’ Alliance and the Populist move- ments swept over Kansas and other western states. The program that i they proposed, then called radical, has been in part adopted in Kansas. | Now in North Dakota there is a mod- the farmer hurling himself against the bas of an economic system. New phases have been added to the old Alliance program. is an attempt within the farmers’ movement to put the state bodily and boldly under socialism, and this over- reaching effort seems to be having unexpected results. “The farmers of North Dakota have seized the state government in a sin- gle spectacular drive; they have built up a semi-secret society which abso- lutely rules the state; they have kill- ed the old parties.as far as North Da- kota . is concerned, and they have come under a leadership which is try- ing to stampede them into a cross-lot cut to socialism with a dizzy speed which makes the Progressives and th old-time Populists look like stand. patters.” This, then, is as others see us. The coating of Republicanism which Townley and the other members of the Big Five—or has it been decreas- ed to Four since Coates packed up and returned to Spokane—have sought to give their brand of social- ism is so transparent that even a vis- itor recognizes the familiar earmarks. The Kansas City Star’s correspond- ent gives this pen sketch, of Governor 3 Frazier: : “Governor Frazier impresses one as being a man of substantial make- ~ up, but of phlegmatic, unimaginative * temperament—essentially honest and , sincere, but a‘ man who is pliable un- * derthe force of circumstances, rather ; than one hewing out his own way and £ leading his people. “Speaking slowly and almost reluct- } t { antly, it seemed he echoed the famil- ; jar phrases of the more peppery ; league generals. ‘The league stole the (Republican party, he mused, chuckling at the recollection. ‘I got . . eighty-six thousand votes, but I don’t remember what the Democratic candi- * date got:” BE: The Kansas City Star prepares us + for the next installment in conclu- < “And so the North Dakota farmers, ‘without a hitch or pause, swept into {injuring the morale of the educational * |institutions. ’ i */utive is not evident, but, surely, Gov- *! | ing in blind alleys. more competent guide, unless he de- sires to North Dakota is regarded by other] jj, promising stand in reference to the slalelpoard of regents is not relished by , Tegime will not take a “flier” in S0-|those who have some pride left in or- cialism juntil the people at the next|/derly government. a friendly suit to determine the board of regents’ issue. akin to the} ‘capitol doné for politcial effect and was poorly staged, to say the least. is sure, do not want the. educational institutions pawns, |.boss’ whip. dynamite when steps to settle.a controversy that can agency, gives a very unbiased intro-|ig adjudicated In a quiet and proper manner. ® issue in the last campaign. that created regime was passed by both bodies of | and the memlbers appointed under the law confirmed and reconfirmed by the | ernized version of the old drama-|.onate. interest the decision of the Supreme Court.

RAY But from the beginning of my ex- perience in the playing of these roles, I have entertained altogether different views. I hold that the woman who dis- plays herself brazenly to men may mo- mentarily attract attention, but will lose it as quickly, The siren who knows her game does not reveal—she suggests, She wears as much clothing as any other woman on the stage, but she wears it differently. And so 1 have dressed for every part T have played, I think { may truly say, without having once .appeared in an immodest gown. In the various Tri- angle-Ince productions in which I have ‘appeared, I have played dance hall girls, women of the “gay white, w: and si- rens.of the half world, yitha. cling to a semi-respectability with one hand while they reach for their er.

Yet I hold that it stamps the wearer as a siren who knows her business. And so with the peacock Gress, Men have not pro- gressed so far‘in the codes of civiliza- tion that there is not still a strong strain of the barbaric in most of them, and it responds to the bizarre in wom- en's attire, A woman who wears headdress, train and fan of peacock feathers will catch any man’s attention. That gives the siren her chance—and that’s all any accomplished siren should require, I have been told that a dress called the “spider gown” made people gasp. Yet it is not in the least immodest. In fact, it is cut quite high in the neck. But because it is slashed across the front diagonally, the black velvet being contrasted with white silk overlaid with a net spider web and a spider, it hag caused some Startled comment. I hold that t is simply because it is unusual, and not because it is indeco- rous. I have one very strong reason for dressing these “vampire” roles as I do —without impropriety—and that is that I do not wish to render either the parts I play or my own individuality repellent to women pagrons of Triangle pictures. above all others which ‘is dependent on the good will of women it is the mov- ing picture. Women do not want to see pictures on the screen which they would-not want displayed in their own homes. They do not want their chil- dren learning in film theatres things that are not allowed to reach them in books or through other, avenues. “And so I want every characterization: I taake to be one to which no woman who sees it can object,’ In this I believe T am succeeding, and imon?

The Grand Forks district court found for the defendant, and the supreme court finds likewise. Judge Robinson in his opinion re- marks that Black evidently found the crowd “too much of a good thing,” but that it would be folly to expect. the fair association to limit its admissions to that precise number which would afford vendors a good market for their wares and no more. “The purchaser of, a license to sell Cigars and dri in the grand stand of a fair ation takes his own chance on the crowd and conditions.” says Justice Robinson's succinct syHabu: ‘VESSEL BOUND FOR NEUTRAL PORT SUNK (Continued from F from Page Une) ‘The news came in a cabled report last night from American Consul Mahin, at Amsterdam, after the president had retired.

Mother Had Ever Used Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin Re- |. lieves Baby When Other Medicines Failed There is nothing so necessary to a child’s health and comfort as regular- ity of the bowels. All children are es- pecially susceptible to stomach trou- ble and any overstrain of the sensitive organs has a tendency to obstruct elimination. This condition is respon- ‘sible for much of the illness of child- hood. To relieve constipation a mild lax- , ative should be employed. Cathartics | ‘and purgatives are violent in their ac:| tion and should be avoided. Mrs. Al- fred Du Bois, Mt. Holly, N. J., says Dr. Caldwell,s Syrup Pepsin is with- out doubt the most effective rémedy for constipation she has ever used and that it is the only remedy she could find for her baby. Little Earl was badly constipated during his first year and nothing she tried seemed seg help him ‘until she got a bottle of Dr.! Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. Now he is a fine, ‘strong healthy boy, and she thanks Dr. Caldwell for it. Dr. :Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is a combifiation of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, free from opiates or nar- cotic drugs; it acts gently without griping’ or oiler dlncoa oP ca discomfort, and ap- peals to children because of its pleas- ant taste. -Druggists everywhere sell it for fifty cents a bottle,-and every mother should have it in the house for use whenever occasion arisés, To avoid imitations and ineffective ubstitutes always be sure'to’ask for Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin.
