THE BIJOU..

A theatrical season without a visit
of I'm Old Kentucky" would be in
complete. This attraction enjoys a
prestige greater than any other melo-
drama ever seen in this country and
with local theater-goers it is especial
ly popular. The Bijou has given the
theater-going public host Of clever
things already this season, but it is
safe to predict that none Of the pro-
auctions have received a stronger well
come than will DO accorded to I'm Old
Kentucky" on its return engagement
the coming week. This popular play
ment. going public Of the city. A de-
lightful story of Kentucky life, it
breathes in it's scenes and dialogue the
very air Of the mountains of that
state, illus trating in stage pictures of
attractive realism, scehes and Incl
dents common to the locality in which
the action of the play, occurs. "In
Old Kentucky is drama of the most
powerful and absorbing interest, it
abounds in thrilling situations, has
powerful climaxes and tells sweet
and charming story. II 81
The merry-making q fpickaninnies
with their clever dancing and their
brass band are in themselves a novel
entertainment. The cast on this &C.
casion will be the famous New York
one, and will introduce'ih the leading
rolo of Madge. Miss Laura Burt, the
charming original actress who made
the role famous by ,heF cleverness.
Other mem bers in the, cast include
Burt Clark, in his original conception
of the colonel. Chas. K. French as the
inimitable Uncle Ned, Handsome
Frank Dayton as the hero. Frank
Layson, Estelle Wellington, a pretty
St. Paul girl, as Barbara. and others.
The scenic effects of the production
will be as elaborate as ever, the race
horse scene will be given with all the
realism and effect Of former presenta-
tions.

PITY THE POOR BANKER.

There is an old song which begins
thus; II dare not go hunting for
fear Of little men," With little
alteration the refrain of this ballad
would fall like an anthem on the ears
OF certain banker. 81 dare not go
a-hunt ting for fear Of Bryan men,"
According to the voraciouS chronicle
Of the Evening Post one honest bank
er had planned to take vacation at
the opening Of the shooting season in
November, when he designed to kill a
few quail. Ordinarily this good bank
er, when he wishes to shoot quail in
stead OF knitting candidates on Elec-
tiOn Day, invites some other banker
Of opposite political faith to pair with
him. so that his valuable vote may
not be lost to the party. This year,
however, the banker cannot find an
other banker who is going to vote the
other ticket. For, strange as it may
seem, all his banker friends are going
to vote for the advance agent Of
proSperity-for the bankers,
1t is a lamentable state Of affairs
that robs banker of his vacation. In
the same state Of affairs the working
man is getting great deal Of vaca-
ton. He does not get it on precisely
the same terms as the banker; but
what difference does that make-to
the banker: The financial parsonage
will go right on drawing the interest
on his bonds and stocks whether he
takes vacation or not. The work
ingman, on the other hand, will not
draw anything but breath, and il the
vacation lasts long enough he may
finally cease to draw even that. But
that is no reason why workingmen
should be so selfish as to abridge the
privileges Of the rich. Bankers should
be permitted to go shooting on Elec-
tion Day, but III The other bankers
will not pair with them we really do
not know what they are going to do
The workingman, with his customary
lack of consideration for those whom
Providence has placed in authority
oyer him, will take the vacation he
cannot avoid and stay at home to vote
for Mr.. Bryan. II the bankers view
shall prevail, it will be an admirable
time to repeat the familiar remark:
God nelp the rich; the poor can beg"

YELPING FOR MORE.

II Mr.. Harrison's administration
under the Mckinley high tariff was
such phenomenal success, it certain
ly seems extraordinary that the i'm
portation of foreign made goods into
this country was then greater than
under the present Wilson bill, and that
it should have eventuated in a treas
ury deficit and a treatened bond is
sue; and it is doubly extraordinary
that the American people should ha We
repudiated Mr.. Harrison and Mr.. Nc
Kinley's bill at the polls four years
ago. The bottom truth is that the
boasted good times of 1890, 81 and '92
consisted Of an enormous expansion Of
money-borrowing, ending in natural
collapse in 1893. Never in, American
history was the common wealth Of the
country concentrated in the hands Of
the money-loaning class so rapidly as
during HarrisOn's administration.
Obviously had the masses been accu-
Mulating to any considerable extent
during that period, they would not
have revOlted at the polls. 1t was
glorious time for the money-loaner
and the monopolist; they were rolling
in clover: they are now yelping for a
return Of similar to-
Date.
