ADJUSTMENTS.

One Of the most notable engagements
the Salt Lake theatre has known for
some time came 70 a close yesterday
with two Of the largest audiences the
house has ever seen. In the afternoon
the crush was of the suffocating order,
and it was not entirely composed of
women, as is usually the case. So
strong a hold has Miss O'NeiI won on
the Salt Lake public that many men
were content to stand through the en-
tire afternoon to see her portrayal of
The Jewess." Several of them, too,
had been seen at previous perform
ances of the play. In the evening oil
yer Twist was repeated to one OF the
largest audiences of the engagement,
and Nancy, Fagin and Bill Sykes
received the fullest share Of enthusiast
tic applause Mr. Rankin. as director
of the company, is highly gratifed with
the result of their stay in Salt Lake.
When the visit was first spoken of ii
was thought that three nights and a
matinee would be the limit of the en-
gagement. Mr.. Clement undertook to
assure Mr.. Rankin that two weeks
could be spent here to good advantage.
He even went so far as to estimate that
the companys share of the receipts
would be $1,000. Mr.. Rankin was ex-
tremely skeptical and accused Mr..
Clement of havingsvisions, but when it
was time to make the final arrange
ments, concluded that he would be sat
is6ed with $4,000. Clement offered to
put in $1,000 and to pay Rankin his
81 600 out of the profits, but Rankin
thought better Of it. When they reached
Ogden and read of the smallpox scare
they rather repented the step. How
ever, they overcame all obstacles. real
and imaginary, and have broken all
records. They will depart from Salt
Lake with over &c. 600 as their share of
the receipts. It is needless TO say that
the company leaves with the pleasant
est memories Of the city, and Mr.. Ran
kin promises return in the very near
future.

POLICY OF THE DEMOCRATS.

The Bacon resolution. which en-
bodies the position Of Bryan and all
Democratic leaders in relation to the
war in the Philippines, is now under
discussion in congress. A synopsis Of
the authors remarks in defense Of it
was printed in yesterdays dispatches.
He maintained that the United
States owes as much to the Filipinos as
It does to the Cubans, to whom by
resolution Of congress, self government
has been promised: he urged that his
resolution declaring it the intention
of this government to confer the right
of government upon the FIlpinos be
adopted as a means not only Of ter
minating the war, but Of extending to
the struggling people justice and free
dom"
Senator Teller rose during the dis
cusssion to express his regret that he
had not included in the Cuban resolu-
tions, of which he was the author, the
people of ell Spanish possessions ae-
quired by the United States in addi-
ton to the Cubans
This supplemental resolution. offered
by Senator Bacon and approved by al
most every Democrat and by several
Republicans in congress, does not mean
the Withdrawal Of the United States
troops from the archipelago until peace
is restored No Democrat has ever
demanded such withdrawal. But Dem
ocrats do believe that it was in the
presidents power to have prevented
the trouble and that he could have
stopped it almost any day since it be
gan by Offering some assurance like
that contained in the Bacon resolution
which. as originally presented. read as
followss

when he said: I believe it is the duty
of this government to recognize as

independence that We hold out 10 the
Cubans; TO assuFe them that the pur-

Pettigrew goes to unwarFanted ex-
tremes in his opposition TO war in the
Philippines. He wants the army with
drawn and apologies made for fighting
''the TagaI Washington" and his troops.
This would be a very foolish and disae-
trous thing to do until peace is restored
and a suitable government IS establish
ed for the islands. But aside from this,
Senator PettigFeW seems TO view this
matter from an unpatriOtie standpoint.
These who object to the retention Of the
Islands because OF the danger TO this
republic and its institutions take a
very different stand from that Of the
South Dakota senator. He and Edward
Atkinson appear to be most concerned
about the natives. Mr., Bryan and the
leaders Of the Democratic party are
concerned about our own country and
fellow citizens. While it Seems thar
the Republican leaders do not care any
thing for either people.

touch by touch the "demOniac energy
Of wilT' that drives Richard headlong
into action. The crafty, fiery, unrest
ing hunchback is an incarnate engine
of destruction. So long as the enemies
Of his race kept the field he was the
sword Of the house Of Yo,k; when
piping times of peace succeeded, the
sword, like some enchanted weapon Of
northern legend, turned against lis
master.
And yet Shakespeare's Richard is no
monster, awful and Incredible after
the pattern Of Marlowe He is intensely
human. Cynical, treacherous and
! bloody, he is still a man. and we can
understand the motive that drives him
on, unchecked by fear or scru9le to
. the sweet fruitiOn of an earthly crown.
And when all is over, when the sword

we cannot refuse a. touch of human
/ sympathy to this most memorable per-
trait in the great gallery Of Shakes

The Polite Policeman.

It was crowded on the avenue, and
there was a constant stream of vehi-
Giles coming and going. At the crossing
of two of the most congested streets
stood q police officer, tall and com
handing, irreproachably dressed and
with an eye that compelled obedience.
When the tide of travel surged thick
est. little old lady came to the curD
and looked out into the impossible
stream of carriages and wagons. Evi-
IDENTITY she wanted TO get across. The
gallantry Of the big policeman took
possession of him. He approached her
and held up his hand.
Don't be afraid. III see that you
get across safely" he said.
The old lady shook her head nerv-
ously and seemed more undecided than
ever. The policeman came nearer
Taking her arm, he started to lead her
across. stopping the steady stream OF
passersby in wagons and carts. the
old lady hung back. protesting. When
the slow way to the other side OF the
street had been made. the officer re-
leased her arm. She looked at him IN
a dazed way and said with some sharp
ness: what on earth did you want to
drag me across that road for? | had
an errand to do on the other side.
