SHAKESPEARE On THE STAGE
The Plays of the Immortal Dramatist
Must BE Carefully Edited.
From London Truth

From Lonuon llutn.
Why did Browning, Tennyson. SWIM
hurne. Matthew Arnold. and others
devoted to the theater fail as dranat-
lists? Because they thought only cf
literature and disdGined to study the
art of dramatic construction. Lord
Tennyson would never have succeeded
on the stage if his work had not been
taken i'm hand by Sir Henry Irving and
Augustn DAILY. both practical men, and
Shakespeare himself would not sue
ceed on any English stage of today If
his plays were not fashioned for the
stage by practical managers.
And yet there are people idiOtic
enough to talk about the vandalism
and the atrociously bad taste of touch-
ing one word or syllable Of Shakes
peare. when they know that every
Shakespearean production by Charles
Kean and Irving was most carefully
and iudiciously edited for the stage.
Do these Incorporate writer's want an
example? Let them look at the Ly-
ceum acting edition of Much Ado
About Nothing What has become OF
poor Dogberry. I should like to know?
Cut down to nothing.
With Shakespeare, it must he either
a case of cutting or no Shakespeare
for the stage. DO these foolish writer's
imagine that "Cymbeline" will not he
altered for the Lyceum stage next au-
tumn? OF course it will. or it would
fail to attract any one. And it is nom
sense to say that what Sir Henry lrv-
ing can do with impunity may not be
done by any other manger who is a
reverential student of Shakespeare.

The Democrats and Silver men seem to
have the Peoples party State Central
Committee at their mercy in those fusion
attempts. Not one of the Populist COM

it not so ridiculously Ineffective.
Trouble is breeding in the Third Dis
trict. w. A. Vann is the Populist nomi-
nee there, and three-fourths of the district
he will not be permitted to withdraw

be made the fusion candidate. If the

they will run Mr.. Vann as an independent
