Summit Lake Park.

Summit Lake Park theater was
crowded last evening to witness the
first performance of the week. AL
though following one Of the strong
est shows of the season, the perform
ers certainly did themselves credit
last evening and the audience was
royalty entertained. Honors were
evenly divided. However Allen and
West may deserve the most credit
not only as laugh-producers, but as
musicians. their act being full of fun
from start to finish. The Martiere
sisters who made their first appear
ance last evening before an Akron
audience, also made a very favorable
impression. Their singing and dane
ing is of the highest order. Last but
not least are last seasons favorites,
Tanner and Gilbert, who appeared in
a brand new up-to-date sketch, max
ing in all varied and pleasing pro-
gram.

forms and wherever it exists, and
his fearless manner of unmask-
ing those who practice organ
lied deception of the people, even
though they be found in the high
places of the nation, has won for him
more than local distinction.
The Administration gross hypoc-
risy in pretending to be outraged
at the mere suggestion of polygamy
and slavery at home. but which, in
addition to paying $4,000 tribute in
"debased currency" to the Sultan of
Sulu, ruler over an American colony,
permits the Sultan and his people to
continue undisturbed in the ''pecu-
liar institutions" of their country,
polygamy and slavery, is a subject
for historical comparison and moral
speculation to which Judge Grant
has done full justice.
The adaptability of the Admins
tration to the exigencies forced upon
it by the Philippine crisis, is remark
able. Already it has set two stand
ards of money over the mother
country and the colonies; it has es-
tablished two standards OF citizen
ship, and now it wants to introduce
two standards of public morals.
While the Administration is levy
ing burdensome taxes on the intelli-
gent people at home, and governing
them by rule of conduct as unyield-
ing as the Levitical laws, it has
''backsheesh" and indulgence for the
indolent Sulu islanders.
This is imperialism. This is piling
on the white mans burden with a
vengeance. How do you like it?
