Henry F. Willard in
The Girl From the West.

"The Girl from the West" re-
mains melodrama. but an excep-
tional one, and Henry F. Willard,
leading man of the play, IS In one
sense extravagant. This popular
young actor and fascinating play
are so we'll known and have met
with such unqualified success that
extended comment as to their mer-
Its Is nearly superhuous. The
Girl From the West" remains a
melodrama, but an exceptional one,
the play and the actor are extrava.
giant, but Mr.. Wizards extrava-
gance Is the license of true romance
where the yard stick of human
probability must always fall short.
His characters of fiction move In q
world of their own and those who
would appreciate and enjoy his
company must be elevated Into free
atmosphere. This drama whether as
q novel or a play Is singularly
fascinating. and Mr.. Willard illus
trates with sweeping orce the eter'
nal triumph of right and Its devel'
opment Is marked by the nervous
stress of genius. Pulsating as Re
does in every fiber with life and &C.
ton. 1t Is not strange that he should
continue to rivet the attention OF
all who yield themselves to bis
charm.
Mr.. Willard has long since
caught the spirit that animates the
hero of this remarkable production
he has the careless grace droll hu'
NOR and brusque heartiness char
acteristic of the honest actor and as
Lone Star his bearing has the dig
nifty ,frmness and air of nigh breed
Ing BETTING the man of the world
who has but a single and to him
sacred aim In life yet through all
the phases OF the character there
runs that delicate vein of identity
which at once exalts Mr.. Wizards
effort to the dignity of a superbly
balanced and harmonized artistic
In impersonation. At Auditorium

In the present controversy between
the anthracite coal miners and en-
Movers. there are truth and rights On
both sides. 1t would be narrow
man who would deny this. But there
il a higher truth and higher right
over aud above the contentious OF
either side. In every age, in every
cline, in every country. when cond1-
tions are too hard upon the people,
the people demand change. The
answer Is always made that under
the law nothing can be oone. Tn en-.
and not till then, the fundamental
law is changed. 1t will be changed
here. The people will not forever
be at the mercy OF combinations
either Of capital or of labor. Ii pri-
vate ownership Of public necessities
and public utilities proves harmful to
the people at large, public ownership
or absolute governmental control will
be tried. To make these changes does
not mean socialism, anarchy or revo-
luton. We have the right and the
tools with viii CHI to control our own
destinies, and it is our duty to use
them.
