Striving to put a lesson in its message
deickemeyer26 December 2018
A two-part story of how a contractor, a city political boss, artfully gets a would-be honest commissioner of the public water supply to take ten thousand dollars and let him get a big contract. When the water supply becomes contaminated the children of both catch the disease and the boss's daughter dies. The story is plainly striving to put a lesson in its message and this lessens its interest. It is weak, though the staging and photography are good. - The Moving Picture World, August 15, 1914
