DR.. BurJon's Lecture.

The Congregational church was
we'll FILED Saturday with large au-
dience gathered to hear the lecture
on "Shakespeare as an Interpreter
OF Human Life" by Prof. Richard
Burton, Of the University of Mime
sofa.
The distinguished speaker was in
PRODUCED by Rev. W. II. Easton,
who briefly spoke of the value of the
study of Shakespeare, and the privi-
lege the audience would hayein hear
ing the master poet discussed by one
who was himself a poet.
DR.. Eurton's lecture began with an
account OF the stage in Eliza bethan
times, showing the environment
which surrounded Shakespeare and
Influenced bis works. He said that
the great poet should not be studied
as demigod, lifted far above all
material things, but rather az man
among men. Thus whatever de-
fects Or inequalities there might be
in his works, can be easily explained
! Shakespeare, the speaker said, was
limited and hampered by his time.
The wonder is, not that he was such
a genius, but that he achieved what
be did under the circumstances,
The difference between stage condi.
tions OF the present and the DAYS OF
the Tudors and Stuarts, was strik.
ing and interestingly shown.
DR.. Burton thought that Shakes.
peare should be studied in an evolu.
tionary sense. The Shakespeare oil
the early plays was not by any
means the Shakespeare Of the late,
tragedies. In opposition to e vera]
critics, DR.. Burton believed that the
environment Of Shakespeare must
be strongly considered in any study
OF the great dramatiat.
Dr.. Burton said, that above ali
other writer's, Shakespeare possessed
the creative power, the vivid touch
which magnifies and Eliminates the
works OF imagination. Several up.
proprlate extracts were read, show
ing bow thoroughly the master poet
knew the human heart. Prot. Bur.
ton tou he'd on Shylock, Macbeth
Lady Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet
and other familiar characters.
The lecture Was an intellectual and
literary sreat of the first order. and
the ladies OF the Shakespeare club
deserve the thanks OF all present for
bringing OF Dr.. Burton to Little
Falls. The community would Ger.
tainly be pleased to hear him again.

Before this reaches all ofits readers
the seeming fate OF the gross earn
ings bill will be over, and it will be
fully apparent what a death-like
grip the railroad corporations have
on the legislative machinery of this
state. Apparently nothing short of
a miracle can save the jacobson bill
to increase the gross earnings tax.
The Republican senate's judiciary
committee kindly performed the
strangulation act, without even the
formality OF a hearing-at least an
open one-on the part OF the rail-
road companies. There has appar-
emily not been the least halt in the
railroad programme OF boldly killing
the bill, regardless of public senti.
ment, and the action Of tho people
which has been taken with more or
less vigor, has been without effect to
stand the charge OF the railroad
trough riders.''

Representative Jacobson OF Lac
Qui Parle, ironically dubbed
"Leader" jacobson by his envious
fellow Republicans, has met the
crushing defeat that WAS inevitable
in his attempt to secure important
and genuine reform at the hands of
this Legislature. General sympathy
goes out to Mr.. jacobson on ac-
count OF his honorable and sincere
purposes, but his experience has
been the same as in past years.
The natural query is how long will
such men as he continue to hope for
real reform through the corporation

From present appearances a
county infirmery will be the next
thing wanted in this county. The
commissioners have been consid-
ering this matter for some time
and have concluded that such an
institution would be the means of
saving money for the people of
this county. If such is the case
then we should have it at once
and it should be located in the
best place. OF course Provo will
think it is entitled to it but we
don sec it that way, in fact there
are good reasons why 1t should
come this way. If it is made self
supporting then The inmates should
be given such work as they can
do. Small farming and market
gardening are the most profitable
for such Institutions. If it is To-
Gated in this end of the county
the sugar beet could be made a
profitable crop and the products
OF the gardens would find ready
sale at Mercur and other mining
camps to the west of us. Com
missioner Davis should see that it
comes this way.
