A good way to make anti- ‘German sentiment woull be to en- courage the Ridderites to lose no opportuiity to publicly insunlt the official head of the American people. Ridder fools no one.

Swaggler fired a deadly double- shotted libel suit at his adversary. ‘We followed that suit with much in- terest, hoping to read somewhere in the proceedings just what kind of a pre-historic monster a hornswag« ger was.

Main street, in the city of Nome, had been wrecked by a tidal wave, and then eliminated by fire that followed ‘when the ruing were timber.dry. With the aid of old photographs, ev—= ery detail was restored carefully for this reincarnation of the famous placer mining town on the bleak shores of Bering Sea. It may be recalled in the book that the miners, to rebuke the law - less invaders, who had under the false shadow of legal advice, taken their property, in revenge destroyed the mining camp of Midas. This was visualized in vivid style, as an old mining settlement was purchased and blast after blast of dynamite blew it off the map. Over three months of working time was re- quired to make “THE SPOILERS,” necessitating the carrying of a large company over vast distances to se- cure the results in authentic “loca- tions.” At the Auditorium Friday and Saturday.
