Tonight the great "Naked Trutk'' j will be presented at the Opera House. | As tv.'is is one of the finest and iiign| est priced productions of the dayN beI ing in five reels, the prices o-f admis! sion will be 10 and 20 cents. Some i people would rat) er go to a picture j shew than to a real performance. It i'would cost first class price to see "The Naked Truth" in a regular play, and it in a condensed form.

What are our relations today with the nations of South America and 01 Europe and of the Orient? It is the , answer to these questions which J counts, and Mr. Bryan need not be ( afraid of it. Conceding the sincerity cf some of '.:is critics, the :act re- j mains that many others oppose him because they are inherently opposed j to Democracy and the popular rule for \ which Mr. Bryan stands; And others j oppose him because they wish to dis j credit or hinder the Wilson administration. They recognize the fact that vsi-ii cut Bryan tt e Wilson programme could not have been put through at the last session of congress. They believe that without Bryan the programme for the present and future sessions cannot be put through.?Baltimore | Sun.
