do. The competition will, Of course, be
standard. Another thing which will be a
large factor in the development OF art OF
all kinds is the nature of the public de-
nanding it. This public, IN America, will
be largely composed of peeple whose par
ents had but little money. Its taste will
be crude but fresh and unspoiled. A large
percentage of the people who now attend
standards on perfectly fresh basis. They
are finding out what they like, and their
approval is given on that ground alone.
This condition Of things never obtained in
any country before in the history of the
world.
The public which the American dramat-
ist and author Of the next half century
will address will be public whose
taste is unyitiated, and which makes
its own standards. these standards re-
flecting quite accurately its general
ideas of ethical, social, and artistic
matters. Nothing that is not sound and
wholesome is likely to find a permanent

ing versatility of-the American mind they
WILL in another generation, learn to appre-
ciate the ineness of the great actors art
as they now instinctively feel it; they will
become literary critics as well as mere read
ers Of books. They will spend money
freely on what they like, and they will be
eager to learn to like the best things.
Our whole social history proves that. Al
together, the prospect is an interesting one.
Another factor in artistic development
will, OF course, be the enormous field
opened to the imagination in the swift
intermingling Of the Oriental and Occi-
dental civilizations. There are endless pos
sibilities in this. The artist of the future
will have the world for his canvas and
his model and all creation for his tools.
He will be Iimitless in his opportunities.
Human nature has a way of rising to the
occasion. 1t will do so in this case. There
is no reason why we in America should not
look forward to a new Golden Age, as daz-
zling in its possibilities as any that the
world has ever seen.

Governor Tyler of Virginia. it is prom
ised, will. in his forthcoming message to
the Legislature of the Old Dominion pre-
sent another contribution the already
voluminous literature on the subject of
trusts. A forecast that is said to be con-
sidered reliable says that Governor Tyler
will advise. legislation calculated TO pre-
vent these corporate interests from becom-
ing too oppressive. The public, however,
is quite convinced that the combines have
long since reached that stage, both as to
power and numbers. And, while propo-
sition for a compromise with evil is never
to be entertained. if Governor Tyler is able
to suggest a feasible device for ridding
the octopus of its tentacles, the people will
gladly accept it, but merely as preliminary
to the eventual annihilation of the whole
repulsive carcass.

Father Sells His Bow.

George Vnuk, laborer, whose wife
ie dead, living in Milwaukee, sold his
7-year-old boy George to two Italian
women and one man. The Italians were
boarding with Vnuk during their stay
in the city, and on Sunday night he
drank bud caroused all night. Vnuk
was drunk, it is thought, when he made
the bargain. The exact sum of money
he got for the child is not known, and
he is now 80 drunk as not to be able to
talk, having spent great deal of money
sending the rest of his children for
beer. The Italians left on Monday,
buying tickets for Green Bay over the
Chicago & Northwestern road. The
boy did not want to go, but was forced
by the Italians
