FOrd's Grand Opera House.

Week of December 10Th The Augustin
DAILY Musical Company, in dainty, tuneful,
delightful SAN TOY, the play that has bro
ken all records at Days theatres, New York !,
and London.
San Toy will 5e presented here by the Au-
gustin Daily Musical Company, the pioneer
organization in this class Of entertainment
in America. After the late Augustin DAILY
succeeded in gaining footing in London
and had secured q theatre in that city for his
wonderful stock company, he found it in
cumbeut ON himself to find something to
take its place 10 the home theatre while the
stock organization was absent In the English
metropolis, 80 the Musical Company WAS
formed.
Its success was instantaneous and each
season witnessed new musical production
at Days, in rapid succession coming "The
Gelsha," "a Runaway Girl" and others, aud
finally "San Toy" The rights to these plays
were secured by Messrs Stevens and Price
after the death of the famous manager, and
the company has been kept as nearly intact
as possible. This seasons presentation of
"San Toy" will be found quite as complete
rs any that has yet been given, and when it
is considered that "San Toy" enjoyed three
long runs at Days Theatre in New York,
that would give assurance OF really excel
lent entertainment. A feature is being made
of the orchestral music this season, the COM
pany carrying number of instrumental So
loists with which the local orchestra will be
augmented the whole to be under the direc-
ton OF the famous conductor, John 3raham.

HOW 1T GROWS.

The idea OF public ownership is gaining
ground more rapidly than the most enthusiastic
Socialist or Populist dared hope. The 'disease"
is more catching" than mumps or smallpox.
Some of the leading Republican papers are
taking up the cry, and some of the trade papers
are pushing it along.
A few days ago, the Emporia Republican
said that the only way to protect the people
from corporate monopoly is for the people to
own the trusts.
Printers Ink, paper published in New
York, in the interest of newspapers and adver.
tisers, is owned and published Iy Republicans,
and has always had leaning toward monopoly,
often making sport of the "fool Socialists"
In recent number. however, the paper an
nounces, in double-leaded editorial, that it is
in favor of government ownership of railroads,
savings banks aud life Insurance.
This is good starter, and if the editor of
Printers Ink will only keep his thinker in mo-
ton, he'll soon evolve the whole plan of public
ownership.

musician had teeu elected mayor. In half
dozen towns in Connecticut, labor leaders have
been elected to Office, and party lines have been
obliterated. In Yonkers union printer was
elected mayor and so it has gone all over the
country. Never before was there such ten
dency OF the "masses" to array themselves
in politics against the "classes."
The belief that there is some justice in the
contention of LABOR that it is not getting its share
of the prosperity and that everybody will be
benefited by labor and capital getting together
is what is back of Senator Hanna's activity.

A Word About Oil.
Appeal to Reason.

Appeal to Reason.
In these piping times of Coal Oil Johnnies,
it is we'll to look into what makes millionaires
of men who haven't enough sense to make a
success of peanut stand. In the St. Louis
Post-Dispatch OF May 4th, writer gives some
wonderful statistics regarding the production
of oil at Beaumont, Texas. One small district
alone can produce 200, 900 barrels day for the
next ten years. The 212 companies owning
this 200 acres have invested less than $2, ,5oo,-
900, but are capitalized at $1oo, ,oco, 900. If
this oil is sold at S cents BARREL, it will pro-
duce 81 900 900 year. The writer says that
with the most extravagant management the
cost of maintenance and operation will not be
over $780, 900 year. This gives US the cost
of oil, in tank, of Hcent barrel, or 1.Ioo.
cent gallon. The cost of refining oil does
not cost H.cent gallon. If the public had
developed the oil fields of Texas, it would
have invested $2,5oo,o 900 in welldriling, per-
haps three times that much in pipe lines and
re6neries, and could have sold refined oil to its
citizens at not over one cent gallon, after
adding the cost of transportation on publicly
owned railroads. AS it is, we are skinned for
IL to go cents gallon for oil and gasoline to
build up great monopolies, which the people
themselves do not like. But they prefer to
vote for the old parties, which never benefit
them, and suffer the i'll of monopoly, than to
vote for the Socialists, who would take the oil
business as public monopoly, and give them
oil at one cent gallon.
No wonder we have millionaires and paupers.

SEVERE STORMS

Texas was visited by tornado, Sunday af
ternoon, doing much damage to life and prop.
erty. At the town of Goliad, about seventy.
five people were killed, and nearly every house
in town was damaged and majority of them
were wrecked. Numerous other towns were
visited by the storm, and other lives were lost.
The loss to property cannot yet be estimated.
Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin and other states
had severe storms, considerable damage being
done.

A DEMOCRATIC exchange from New York is
knocking on the kill to provide federal peu-
sions for disabled members of the ife-saving
service. And this, too, right on the coast, in a
locality whose citizens would get all the ben
eft of such pensions. 1t is objected that 'it
will be tie first time in the history Of the
American government that pensions have been
paid to persons not in the naval or military
service" Really, can't see how widows
and orphans pensions can be considered as
being paid to persons who are or have been in
the naval or military service. That objection
is without force. But the paper from which
am quoting goes on to deny that this pension
proposition "is consonant with the spirit of the
American government" And why not?
should like to know. Peace hath her victories
as we'll as war. The man who loses his life in
an engine cab, in an effort to save the passen-
gers in the train he is running, dies as heroic
death as if he fell beneath the bullet of an
armed enemy; and his wife and children are
deserving of just as much consideration at the
nations hands. Every man or woman who
becomes disabled in the service of the public
deserves pension. New Zealand, the most
democratic country in the world, gives pensions
to all persons over sixty-6ve years of age, of
good character, and who have not sufficient
private income for their support. Every man
who becomes crippled in doing useful service
for the community, or who becomes superannu-
ated in public service, ought to receive pen
sion. Wars will be done away with some day,
but the pension principle will be indefinitely
extended Under what principle none but the
killers should be tonored by such public recog-
milton, and life-savers should be debarred, l

We have never enthused over Fred Funston.
We remember him tt we'll as a student at the
State University. He came in heralded as the
wonderful son of great congressman, ran his
course of bluster and brag, then funked out
The college boy is mighty index of what the
grown man will be, and we are not at an, sur
prised that the president found it necessary to
tell Funston to shut his yap. The Washington
Post has him sized up right as the following
interesting editorial shows:
"No spectacle of modern times, or, for that
matter, of ancient times, either, can be said to
compare with the spectacle of Fred Funston IN
the act of plying the senior senator from Mas

books of half century ago how Ajax, fam

so angry that he slew whole flock of sheep,
stabbed himself, and afterward deied the light
ming to do its worst Ajax was very amusing,
the more SO as the lightning didn't take the
slightest notice of him; but all the arts of
Homerous do not make him half as funny as
our little Funston. At least, Ajax contributed
something, for he had the grace to die of the
wound, and his blood to fashion and bring forth
the hyacinth. Even after all these years, we
can't think of him at times without contempt.

fold purpose of looking down upon Senator
Hoar and enabling people to look up and see
a good deal of him. We do net say (perish
the thought) that Funston ends here upon his
merits. Considering the results he has achiev-
ed from small beginnings, and the notoriety he
has derived from beggarly account of virtue,
we hesitate to fix limit to the soarings of this
delightful gossamer The melancholy fact,
however, is that Funston has been extinguished
at the threshold of his careei AS though one
had crowned talow dip with an inverted tea
cup, Funston has been put ont, quenched land

The narrowing details appear in our news COL

dwell upon them. Who shall paint the sham
bles or adorn the block? Enough for our
sorrow that a jest has been eliminated, a
shadow cast upon the wall.

of humor. 1t sees in Funston an impertinent
and tiresome conceit. We lament his occula-
