Labor Crucified.

If the single gold standard can be
forced upon South America and Asia.
as it has been since 1873 forced on
North America and Europe, gold must
inevitably appreciate to at least four
times its present absurd value, or to
put it otherwise, commodities must de-
cline to one-fourth of the present price,
and labor all the world over be crucified,
as it never was crucified before in days
CT medieval serfdom or even chattel
slavery. Such is the contest. If the
money lords can force recommendation
on the whole world, they will succeed in
establishing the most gigantic moneyed
aristocracy among the rich and the
worst system of peonage serfdom
among the masses" that has ever
cursed the 'hapless sons Of men,

Sale-A States Press Opinion.

The box plan for Ole Olson was
opened at Hobron's this morning and,
as was to be expected, there was a
rush for seats. There is no longer
a doubt but that the house will be
crowded. The best people of the city
will see this bright and interesting
comedy staged for the first time i'll
Honolulu, and put on by "A man who
has presented it in the most fashion
able play houses on the American
continent.
Besides Mr.. Scott there are several
ever popular amateurs in the cast.
Mrs. c. ID. Wilson. the brilliant star of
previous amateur efforts, will appea"
i'm an important role. Mr.. \. l.. Nor
ris will impersonate Paul Jordan, a
principal character. Then there will
he Ramsey, with a new neclltie, and
a half dozen others who are well
known.
Mr.. c. ID. Wilson does not appear in
the cast. He will have the business
management of the play. AS arranged
by Mr.. Scott the cast of characters
will be as follows:
Ole Olson ........... Robert l.. Scott
Paul Jordan ....... \. l.. Morris

OF the play the Galveston News
says:
Ole Olson is a Scandinavia dialect
comedy, and while it unfolds a tale
of villany on the part of couple of
schcmers and bristles with a light
plot. there is not enough of this in it
to make it drag or become monoton-
Gus. The author evidently recognized
and appreciated the fact that the
theater-going public has become sur
feited with the traditional blood and
thunder and intricate plots that char
acterize very many such plays, and
acting on the knowledge, he wisely
refrained from injecting more than
was absolutely necessary to make it
hang together and to invest it with
dramatic interest. He also had the
foresight and sound sense to inter
sperse it with specialties aside from
the humorous incidents and laughable
climaNes that belong TO the comedy
proper. This being the case, Ole Oh
son is success. 1t is not n novelty
in the dramatic line. but it is clean,
bright and interesting and one of the
productions which the playgoer can
sit through without becoming weary
of any particular feature and signing
for IA change"
