rails, playwrights never present
them out of respect for religion,
The religious sentiments of the
community are scrupulously cared
for; it is only the hypocrite, the
base pretender, who uses religion as
la cloak to cover his wickedness, who
gets exposed on the stage. The
plays which had the greatest run al
his theatre inculcated high moral
and Christian sentiments.
Mr.. Winter treats the subject
from a broader platform than either
of the others stands upon, and from
point where he can observe not
only the outside effects, but the in
side causes which lead to them. He
declares the theatre is as moral as
the community; if questionable
plays are popular, it is because
morals are low: that the stage is
frivolous because society lacks cul-
tivation, seriousness and nobility
but that hegeneral effect is healthy
and helpful.
In none Of the papers is anything
really new on the subject presented,
the old arguments for and against
being brought out in new forms
AID with more or less interested
earnestness. The trouble with
assaults like that of DIR. Buckley is
that they are simply the assertions
of men unsupported by evidence.
Buckley is undoubtedly eonscien-
tious in his belief that the theatre
is bad. 1t is a playhouse, sham,
and therefore must he improper;
but wherein OR why he cannot say.
He says it tends to immortality and
irreligioE, and honestly thinks
it does but wherein can
he find evidence to support
his belief2 There are immoral
actors and actresses, and they have
gone wrong from the stage, but the
fact cannot be brought forth as
confirmation that the theatre is
wrong. 1t is no uncommon thing
to discover all immoral and rogulsh
minister of the gospel, but who
would think of charging his profess
sion or Christianity with making
him bad2 Bank cashiers frequently
betray their trusts, yet is it democrat
izing to accept a position of trust?
The truth is, the stage is one Of the
great educators of the day, and that
it is receiving almost universal en-
couragement is rather to the credit
than discredit of the people. The
players profession is noble and ele-
waiting, and never leads downward.
If public morals are SO low that
only immoral exhibitions will sat
isfy, the blame cannot rightly be
attached TO the drama. The minis
tiers should look elsewhere for q
cure than in demanding the sup
preston of the stage.

HoRAL INFLUENCE OF THE DRAMA

The current issue of the North
american ReOiet0 closes with a
highly interesting Symposium" on
the morality of the stage, the con-
tributOrs, or disputants, being the
Rev. DR.. J. M. Buckley, John Gill
bert, the veteran actor, A. NJ.
Palmer, theatre proprietor and man
ager, and William Winter, the we'll
known dramatic critic. The subject
is quite thoroughly discussed in
twenty five pages, each Of the
writer's stating his views clearly
and fully without elaboration. AS
matter Of course the divine takes
the position. that the stage IS i'm
neral. He is rather more earnest
and vigorous in his denunciation of
the drama than the average rever-
end. he declares the theatre both
immoral and irreligious, saying it
does not recognize the Christian
standard of morals, that religion
is often ridiculed on the
stage. and that plays in
which Christian qualities are pre-
sented are unpopular. Lying,drunk-
enness, adultery, painted women,
rogues and villains take with the
theatre-goers. and pay best. He says
very few plays can be read aloud by
or to a respectable woman. The
doctor has read sixty plays pre-
scented on the stage in New York, of
which number ffts fmust be con-
demned." His general conclusion
is that the tendency of the whole
l-play, actors, surroundings, the
spirit of the performances i'm
moral and pernicious.
| John Gilbert ably and manfully
takes the other side of the case,
This veteran actor admits there is
much to regret in the plays and in
the acting. He Is sorry that SC
mach stress is laid on scenic effects,
and that managers core more tC
make a sensational bit than Tol
superb acting and the best artistic
effects on the stage. But he bears
testimony to the vast improvement
both in the average quality of play;
and the general conduct of theatres
during his day. And he knows o.
scarcely any plays presented now
which are morally Objectionable
Manager Palmer follows much il
the same line, and insists that
whereas the drama and its
surroundings might have been
bad formerly there has been great
Improvement in late years. Theatres
are better built, ventilated and con
Quoted, more care is taken in pre-
senting plays with fitting artistic
accessories, audiences are more re
fined and better behaved, and
higher tone of morals prevails, botf
in the character of the play and the
style of acting. He calls attention
to the fact that while the career;
of ministers who have disgracet
their profession and are serving GU
terms of punishment IN prisons
furnish the richest dramatic mate

GOVERNOR FORSTER, OF Ohio,
is developing into humorist, but
his wit is so bread and vulgar that
the gentleman is not likely to be-
come popular as joker. A sample
of Governor Fostar's funnine6s will
be found in THE HERALD's tele-
graphic columns this morning, and
consists of the governors suggestion
that Senator Logan would make a
popular candidate for the Presidency
on the republican ticket. One can
readily understand that Logan
would poll the whole party vote
in Ohio. Hayes did the same thing
seven years ago; Tut that the Ill
inois Senator would be popular
outside the Buckeye state, or at all
enthuse the party, is more than
questionable. AS Logan's name
will probably not be mentioned in
the convention, Fosters joke is
apparent.

ALBION, Boone county, March 23.-
This county Is steadily improving,
and is, l think, In as prosperous a
condition day as any county of Its
age in the state. There is now but
little government land here, and not
much of it Is owned by the railroad
company, but there Is yet fine chance
for men of small means to secure good
homes upon easy terms, and settlers
are coming in rapidly
Our farmers are year by year turn
Ing their attention more to cattle and
hogs than formerly, and az conse-
quence are making more money. A
few years ago wheat was the principal
crop here, but now corn takes tho
lead, and large part of each years
crop is fed In the county and sent out
In the form Of beef and pork.
Though political matters are quiet
now there is strong feeling In this
county, and the recent appointment
Of about the poorest lawyer In the
county as district judge has not tend
ed to allay it, So far as people In
Albion are aware, Mr.. Tiffany had no
qualification whatever for the position
of Judge; and his appointment Is an
insult to an intelligent bar. 1t is true
he was county Judge, but he owed his
election to the fact that he was on o
str ng ticket and the opposition was
divided between two other candidates,
one of whom came within few votes
of being elected.
The contest here next fall for the
county offices promises to be lively;
and the pins are already being set for
the campaign. When Tiffany resigned
the county judgpship thss office was
given to Hon. Joseph Hamilton, In
order to get him out of the way of
John Peters, who wants to run for
clerk ain. Hamilton might have
proved troublesome to John and so a
SOP was thrown to him to keep him
quiet.

goes out and Col. Senator Harris ie

Tiffany and hi, friends by his mani
pulations of the bill redistricting the
