SHAKESPEAREAN PARTS.
The Melancholy Dane Is the i'ohse''
Of Them All.

The Melancholy Dane Is the LonseS'
OF Them All.
The longest part in any Shakespeare
O, ,1ov * Hamlet, who is before the
audience almost constantly. hamlet IS
. constant talker, and it is surprising
+hot IN the circumstances he says so
many wise things. He has to his share
! 5s9 lines. Richard III is another long
part, as the character speaks 1,161
lines, and next comes Iago, with LII
lines. Henry V has 1908 lines.
One would suppose from seeing the
representation or from looking over the
play that Othello had more lines than
1ago, but it is not the case, for the val
liant Moor has only SIS lines. Coriola-
nus has $50, the Duke in Measure For
Measure" $50 and Timon SS3. Antony
IL Antony and Cleopatra does not
seem very long part judging by the
appearance of the prompt book, but in
reality be has $50 lines.
Brutus in Julius Cesar has 12l,
FalstaG in Henry V" 10. Macbeth
appears long part judging from how
much he is Oh the stage in the repre-
sentation, but in fact he has only IOo
lines Romeo has G1S. which is only a
few more than the King in Hamlet"
who has 551- Cassius in Julius Ca-
sar," although a first class part, has
but 507 lines.
The female parts in Shakespeare's
plays are not very long. The actress
who plays portia has $50 lines to
study. Rcsalind has I49. Cleopatra
has 60 and Juliet 541. Desdemona
has only $50 Beatrice has 800. Only
20 Of Shakcspcare's women have more
than 800 lines each, and some Of the
most famous of the great bard's femi-
nine creations have comparatively lit
tie to say. Cordelia in King Lear"
has only 115 lines, Kate in Tanning Of
the Shrew," although so conspicuous
and voluble, has but 900, while Lady
Macbeth has but 211.-Baltimore Amer

who have always favored liquor,
have always stood in the way of
temperance reform, this class
have tackled themselves on to the
Prohibition forces and it is plain
to everybody, that their purpose
is not to advance the cause OF
temperance.

The first battle of ballots /

The first battle of ballots IS
over. and now the candidates are
thinned out to a stand, this gives
the people fewer to select trom'
and makes it less difficult to
choose. In the election OF last
Tuesday some Of US did not real
ize our hopes, but that should
not make US sulk. All of US
could not get our choice, some
body had to get left. There will
be attempts made to disgruntle
the friends of the defeated, but
we hope the people will not let
such a condition be brought
about. If your man was not sue
cessful this time, take 1t tor
granted, that it was because the
successful man had the longest
pole to ''trash de simmon wild. :"
It often happens that a man is
defeated in one primary, II he
takes his defeat like a man, be
will be successful the next time.
Do not let the opposition make
YOU dissatisfied. They will try
and make you believe that the
successful man was slated" but
YOU own common sense should
teach you that no man can be
slated in primary election. The
people vote as they please and If
any man undertook to slate a
ticket, it would necessarily be
confined to himself and few
personal friends who agree with
him. When a man comes to you
and undertakes to stuff you with
a 'Slated ticket" story, see II ne
is not interested in the opposition
and then put the question to him,
how can a man tell how I would
vote? The cry Of ':slated ticket"
is the despairing wall we hear
after every election and it always
comes from the other side.

The scratching of Tillman's
name from the ticket last Tues
day was a blunder which we re-
gret was made. True, it was ad-
vised by some good men, but
nevertheless it will have ten
dency to tear open factional
sores and we sincerely wished to
avoid anything OF this kind. II
Tillman provoked the ministers,
they in turn should not provoke
the people, for in doing so they
loose sight of the fact that we
are hidden to ''turn the other
cheek % Tillman made some of
the ministers very mad by his
charge of an '.unholy alliance
with the ex-barkeeper." We
think they have construed that
assertion most too literally, and
we believe that some Of them IN
putting their construction on his
words, exhibited much method
in their madness. Why did they
advise the scratching Of Till
mans name, and to vote for Col.
Hoyt?: They do not claim that
McSweeney or Gary or Patter-
son gave them ofense. If be-
cause Tillman offended them,
why should his ofense be visited
on the others, except Hoyt:: No,
the ministers who have made
themselves conspicuous in this
election have done their profes-
sion more harm than did the
charge of Senator Tilim n
against them. The ministers
have permitted their zeal for
what they believe to be right, to
get the better of their cooler
judgment, and thereby their rea-
soning has become warped. We
do not believe there is a minister
Of any standing who would con-
sciously go into political con-
spiracy, but we do believe that
many ministers have been en-,
shared by the politicians and a
prohibition seine was used to en-
snare them.
The preachers want prohibi'
ton because they hope it will
advance the growth of temper
ance; they want this thing so
earnestly that they do not stop
to consider the practical side of
the question. There are many
others who want temperance who
differ with the preachers as to
the method of obtaining the de-
sired result, they are also sin.
