The season at the Grand Opera House
will close with the engagement of THE
White Squadron" which begins tomorrow
night. The play. which Is q spectacular
melodrama. was first produced In New
York city last August. where it had q suo-
cessful run. and since then it has been seen
in various other cities. 1t has those ele-
ments which appeal strongly to our patriot
ism. and it Is given q stage production that.
in picturesqueness and elaboration. it is
said, is seldom equaled. In m of the
scenes is represented by miniature ships,
i%ngeniously handled. the white squadron
OF the United States navy. and from this
the play takes It's name.
The play opens in the harbor of Rio de
Janeiro. Brazil. whore a naval congress of
nations is seen in progress. The action,
which is said to be full of exciting Incl
dents. moves from the city of Rio de
Janeiro TO the Brazilian mountains, and
involves the appearance of soldiers and
banditti. The plan offers rare opportuni-
ties for q noval spectacular display. and
Mr.. Pearson has doubtless made use OF all
custom. A herd of South American ilainas
figure in one of the scenes. Among the
prominent names in the cast are w. III.
Whitecur, William Harcourt, May Wheeler,
King Healey, Tessie beagle. Elmer Gran
din, Nellie Maskell. The cast and produc-
tion here will be substantially the same as
In New York city.

He plants a friend of sun and sky;
He plants the flag of breeZes free;
The shaft OF beauty, towering high:
BE plants a home TO heaven anigh
For song and mother-croon or bird
In huslied ana happy twilight heard
The treble OF heavens harmony
These things he plants who plants a tree.
What does he plant who plants a treei
lie plants cool shade and tender rain,
And seed ana bud of days TO be,
And years that fade and flush again;
He plants the glory of the plain;
He plants the forests heritage;
The harvest of a coming age;
The Joy that unborn eyes shall see
These things he plants who plants a tree.
What does he plant who plants a tree!
He plants. In sap. ana leaf, and wood,
In love of home and loyalty,
And far-cast thought of civic good
His blessing on the neighborhood
Who In the hollow OF His nani
Holds all the growth of all our land
A nations growth from sea TO sea
Stirs in his heart who plants a tree.

SENATOR SwINK has written a
letter to Gov. Waite which, we
think, while rejecting Mr.. Swink's s
personal views, at the same time
expresses the sentiments of the
people he represents. Senator
Swink does not see how any prac-
teal good for the benefit of the
people can be accomplished, but
thst the results of a special session
would be hurtful rather than 9TH
erwise. If Gov. Waite shall per-
sist in calling this extra session in
defiance of the almost unanimous
wish of the people of the state, be
is an even greater egotist than he
has been given credit for. The
fact is that the executives of both
our state and the nation are exhib-

the servants of the people, not
kings. whose personal wishes must
be embodied in legislation. Both

women may hold any civil Office
