Daughter Of the Diamond King.

Tie daughter OF the Diamond
King" which appears at Olympia
Theater tonight, is one of the few
perfect successes this season in comic
drama. Unlike most modern crea-
tions for promoting fun, it possesses a
well developed plot, beautifully told
10y word and action; is intensely in
teresting, but without the tragic hor.
rors which seem to be inseparably
held in place nova days, as climax
for iumor AS well as pathos. La
Belle Laurette, the popular soubrette,
Is the youngest star on the American
stage. She is amply supported by
dancers, singers, clowns and acrobats +;
beautiful scenery and gorgeous electric
novelties and effects. Among the
scenes will be The village school; lay.
ing the corner stone OF the Diamond
Palace; mystic ceremony by electric
light; illumination of the Diamond
Palace; Mardi Gras Carnival, rehearsal
OF the village choir, and other strong
situations and stirring climaxes. The
Lenton Trio is feature whose famous
hat trick, like that of the wonderful
manipulation OF hoops. by Crayton, OF
the "Queen of Hayti" Co., will de-
mand unlimited encores, and which
will leave many people in regretful
mood, if they fail to see it. The New
York Ladies' Quartette is another fea.
ture, whose sweet melodies call for
endless repetition. The prices range
from 25c to 81.

During times Of public excitement.
wide latitude is accorded of both
speech and thought, but then some
respect should be shown for good
taste and dignity in the methods en-
ployed for confounding, ii not COM
pletely overwhelming, Il neighbor.
The protest we enter, at this time
is, in the foolish opinion entertained
by the Tumwater subscriber of the
Oympidn, that he is doing any ire
parable harm to the Olympian by
threats to discontinue his individual
subscription, and had he actually
stopped the copy of that always enter
tanning, and at times amusing, little
paper from coming to his address, that
it would have materially affected the
fate OF that paper, if indeed the busi-
ness manager could ever have discov.
cred a " slump" in receipts from that
cause, unless indeed the "bill" ac-

something that had been published
which did not accord with the debtors

consigned to oblivion in the profit

The man, be lie editor or layman

is sometimes both.
For the Anarchist there is no place
in the broad universe OF God. For
God rules, and rule implies law. Even
in the depths OF hell there is no place
of rest for the Anarchistic soul, for
Beelzebub. the prince of that region
of Plutonian darkness, reigns supreme.
He who would contend for the very
throne OF God itself, unquestionably
rules his own, and rule means law.
Go out into the vast realms of space,
traverse the great Universe through,
and we will find everywhere that law
moves, operates, executes. The Anar-
chist is bird without air, fish with
out water, an animal without food, an
excresence upon all created things.
The STANDARD has never advocated
Socialism as a safeguard of popular
government, but has seen much in the
definition Of the term to admire as
means for attaining that object, and it
can see nothing inspiring in the AFRO
CANT spirit of partisan bigotry which
condemns every incentive that does
not flow through its partisan quill as
unpatriotic in principle and reasonable
in intent. Such purblind partisans can

third, to effect an overland journey via
Bering Strait, between Europe and

the troubles in China INSTRUCTED his
progress, and Count Lamsdorf refused
to allow him to cross Siberia. Now
he is aided by Russian and American
authorities, and expects to make q

OF practically UNEMPLOYED wilds. The
