November, 1909. THE NICKELODEON. 161 Popularity of Picture Slio-ws in Canada The success which has attended the experiment of moving picture shows in western Canada, inaugurated last year, indicates to Consul-General John Edward Jones of Winnipeg the large market in the cities of the northwest for this form of amusement. Mr. Jones adds : "It would be profitable for the manufacturers of moving picture machines to send a representative through western Canada to exploit the field. In Winnipeg this form of amusement only became poptxlar during the past year, and the promoters are now reaping a fine business as the result of their enterprise. "The people soon acquire a fondness for this form of amusement, and willingly pay 10 cents for admission. In this new country, where all forms of amusement are scarce, moving pictures are welcomed, and there is no reason why the manufacturers of the United States should not control the business." Political Pictures The Vitagraph Company is releasing as a special film poses by Judge Gaynor, the democratic candidate for mayor of New York, and the Hon. John H. McCooey, the candidate for president of the Borough of Brooklyn. The two candidates were taken in front of the Gaynor residence and show Judge Gaynor in characteristic action. It will be remembered that the motion picture exhibitors have adopted a resolution in favor of Judge Gaynor's candidacy because of his sane decisions in motion picture cases and this release is in answer to the demand for pictorial material.
