ADD ADJUSTMENTS

| Manager Giffea's revival of THE
| Christian at the Academy last night
was sumptuouS to a degree, admirably
acted and by all odds the smoothest
first nights performance the company
| has yet given.
The enterprise. which some people said
| spet daring or disaster. or both. was an
enthusiastic success and should bring
Mr.. Giffen the handsome return it
merits. mat it will rum to crowded
houses all this week is almost q foregone
conclusion.
In the matter OF scenery and scenic
environment, neither the Viola Allen nor
the Liebler production of last season
exceeded that made by Mr.. Gidcn last
night The scenery has been beautifully
done from the original models. and in
wealth of accessories the third act of the
Giffen production exceeds By far either
of the two made up to this time.
Miss Grayce Scott was revelation
in the part of Glory Quayle. There were
moments when she seemed physically
almost too weak 10 sustain the part.
but she emerged triumphantIy from
every situation. and at the close of the
third act was accorded an ovation Miss
Scott is inclined TO hurry some of her
speeches. but her reading is always fas-
cinating. and often commanding She
presents Glory Quayle in somewhat
different light to that OF her predeces-
sors in the part. but il less robust and
strenuous shan the Glory of Miss Allen.
Miss SCOTS impersonation is more
spiritual. and quite az convincing
Mr.. Bennett has been seen to no great
er advantage this season than in the
role of John Storm. He was however.
inclined to overact the part in GER
tain scenes. where he might have exer-
cised repression with advantage The
part was clearly conceived and well exc
cuted. Mr.. Bennett held his place in the
picture throughout and was generally
convincing.
With the exception of Arthur Hur-
leigh in a nisft dress suit and whis-
kers. every part in the play was well
sustained.
There were no stage waits, and the
play ran its course In ten minutes less
than the time occupied in former pro-
auctions

We are greatly distressed to hear of
the death Of Congressman Peter j. Otey.
Of Lynchburg. virginians some times dis
agree on political questions, but all Vir-
g,.ians like Major Otey are friends and
brethren. and when it comes to their de-
rotion to the Old Dominion they are
of one accord. Major Otey was true
Virginian. a true lover of Virginia and
of her interests. and his work for the
State was tho service Of an affectfonate
son. The State is always fortunate to
have such men to represent her interests
In any part of State or Federal govern
ment. She may hire competent men to
do her N...h. but Sch loyalty and de-
votion as her true sons give cannot be
purchased with money. When the old
State loses a son like "Pete" Otey she
srieves for them as mother grieves for
her own children.

THE M'LAuRIN MOVEMENTS

~ - - ~ .
{ Fer some time past we have been watch
Senator McLaurin, of South Carolina, He
Is a man OF intelligence, man of prac-.
teal ideas and man Of more or less
Independence OF thought and action. He
Is politician, and politicians cannot al
Ways pe taken strictly at their word.
But there is food for thought in the adj
dress which Mr.. McLaurin has recently
made to the voters of his State. He gives
an interesting review Of the political
revolution IN South Carolina by which
Tie Hampton regime was overthroWn and
the Tillman regime set up. Mr.. McLau-.
rim was an important factor in the Till
man movement, and he Is In a measure
responsible for the new order of things
In South Carolina. But he IS frank
enough to say that the last state OF
things is worse than the first. He refused
absolutely to go into the primary. de-
claring that "the primary system adopted
in the State through the farmers move
n,ent has been prostituted and perverted
into political machine for the pur-
pose OF excluding all candidates who are
not In full accord with the wishes OF
TNiman, the dictator" 1.-THE vital Ques-
ton is" says he, ''Will the people of the
State submit to the political tyrant and
Of DISTINGUISHING the intelligen. people
and excluding them from our elections.
lie asserts that the primary system IN
South Carolina has been sacrificed upon
the altar Of partisanship and personal
nalignity, and has. therefore, become I'M
patriotic and useless, and should be ig-.
Dored and finally repudiated by the peo-
rle. He declares that party yoke has
been placed upon the voters of the State
end has become too CALLING Tor further
endurance.
When the so-called McLaurin movement
wes inaugurated The Times expressed
the opinion that It was tho beginning of
another political revolution in South
Carolina. and it would now appear that
il is MIR. McLaurin's Intention to call
his own followers OFF and establish
new party in the State Whether or not
this is to be a Republican party we can
not say. but Mr.. McLaurin has some
distinctly Republican Views, and If we
may Judge from some of his expressions
{, some Of his acts. he is not very far
from the Republican party.
At the recent conference OF Southern
educators at Athens. Ca. a South Caro-
lima speaker brought down the house by
saying that his State was a storm center
in the political world. 1t is even so, and
these who study the signs on the po!iti-
cal weather map sec in this address Of
McLaurin the gathering of ominous
clouds. The course and progress of the
storm will be watched with interest by
tho people in ali parts of the country.
