Al the Opera House.

From the expressions heard this
morning it seems to be the universal
verdict of those who attended the
performance at the opera house last
night that che show WAS the beet seen
here for some time. Some members
of the audience were agreeably sur
prised at the talent displayed by the
company as information had been re-
ceived from other places that the
show was "rotten." There was
nothing in the presentation of Just
Before Dawn" that would offend the
most aesthetic taste. The plot was
full of thrilling interest and the WORK
OF the various members Of the cas- ,
with possibly one or two exceptions,
was exceptionally good.
Tomorrow night the Nadine Wins
tan Stock Company will present that
beautiful war drama, "Under Two
Flags" Seats for this attraction are
now on sale at Fesris' drug store. AT
2:30 tomorrow afternoon the same
company will give a grand ma, nee
for the benefit of the ladies and Child
rem who cannot attend the night per-
Torrance. The prices will Do Is and
35 cents and the doors will open
promptly at two O'Clock.

Yesterday morning one Of the local
express agencies received from Dali
las large oblong box which had all
the appearances of grave box for .
coffin. The gruesome looking box
was addressed to the county officers
but the name of the party who billed
IL out was not given. Judge Lancas
ter was notified by the express people
that they had coffin In the office
subject to his orders. The judge was
very much puzzled. He could not
conjure up in his mind just who or
why any one should make him pres
ent of coffin, he hunted up Sheriff
Sweat and related the circumstance
to him. This official fnnctionary said
he was not expecting a coffin or q
corpse from any one and that he could
not account for it's strange arrival
here. Together the two gentlemen
repaired to the express Office to make
further investigation Of the matter.
They surveyed the box with great
deal OF trspidity and 1t was some little
time before eitner one could muster
up courage to touch the cadaver case.
Finally the courageous sheriff laid
hold of one end and gave it lift, he
said there was nothing in 1t and be-
Iieved somebody WAS putting up job
on The officers. In order to clear up
the mystery and to satisfy the curiosi-
ty OF the officials the express agent
removed the top and a plain pauper's
coffin was revealed to view. AS no
instructions accompanied the coffin
the officers are yet at loss ~ know
by whom and for what purpose it was
sent, In the meantime the express
people have a coffin on their hands
which they would no doubt dispose OF
at a bargain

The V~icksburg Herald is dissapoint-
ed in Governor Longino's explana-
notion of his attitude in the state
trersury scandal. While the COVER
nor denies that he made any offers of
compromise to Mr.. Rush in consider
alton of that gentleman resigning his
place on the Capitol commission, and
does much other talking in the mat
ter, he wholly avoids any reference to
his reason for failing to institute pro-
ceedings against the principal in the
state treasury matter, Mr.. Showers.
At the time the Governor was deter
mined that Showers should hand in
his resignation and get out of the
Office to which he had been elected
by the people, but up to this time he
had avoided in every way anything
which would lead to the prosecution
of Mr.. Showers for the offenfe for
which the governor demanded his
resignation. The Herald is able as
we'll as costic in it's discussion of the
governors position, and the people
of the state are rapidly coming to the
conclusion that everything was not
entirely upon the high plane of pub
lie duty in the position taken by the
executive of the state, and that there
was more politics than a desire to
punish crime in the governors posi-
ton and in his heart. Everybody de-
plores the fact that the handling Of
the states funds was so abused by
any one connected with the treasury
but the public is always in favor OF
fair dealing, and the silence Of the
governor in matters relating to hi
following his pre-emptory demand.
for Showers resignation with a posi-
tive declination to prosecute him al
the law directs, Is, to say the least
reprehensive.

The reluctance with which the
people OF the state take hold Of any
new suggestion, no matter how much
It may concern them and how much
benefit and relief it may promise, is
amazing. The tendency is to always
harbor the fear that some one Is try
ing to trick them, If there is a new So
luton offered for a question Of vital
Importance. This point applies just
now to the suggestion that the way
out Of the present conflict between
the insurance trusts and the state, is
through municipal insurance, 3 law
authorizing the state to establish an
insurance department, with power to
write insurance on all kinds OF proper
ty in the state, at a rate which would
be safe to the state and fair to the
insured. While the average citizen to
whom the proposition is presented
will always frankly admit that the
proposition is feasible and should be
adopted by the state, newspapers
fear to touch the subject and all the
powers seem to be turned in the in
terest Of the insurance companies,
and in favor of changing the laws to
suit them, that they may continue to
rob the people and only pay for a loss
when they feelthat it win be an adver-
tisement for them to do so. Because
the state has now spread upon its
statute a law which compels the insur-
ance companies to pay when they
lose, they are holding up the property
owners of the state and refusing to
insure unless that law is changed.
What good would be an insurance il
there could be nothing collected upon
ii more than the insurance company
desired to pay, in cas- of loss? If
the insurance question is brought
down to simple fractions, it must be
admitted by everyone that the losses
in the state must be paid from money
collected in the state, and under the
present plan a great excess is carried
out of the state every year. Under
municipal insurance no one in the
state would be embarrassed, and in case
anexcess should be collected in theway
of premiums, it would still remain in
the state instead of being carried
away to England or some foreign
state or country. II the law makers
of the state will consult those inter
ested in this great question, and in
form themselves as to its absolute
practicable working, the solution Of
the muddle in which the people are
being bulldozed by the insurance
trusts, viii be solved and solved right
by the adoption of munisipal insur'
ance.

Tho action of the United States
touching the demand for the removal
Of all the Spanish Friars from the
Philippines is bringing the issue down
to a proper basis in those islands. For
this government to put mp its good
money in an effort to establish a
stable form of government in the is
lands and then permit the hypocritical
spies and allies of Spain to remain
there to breed, through their churches,
instruction and discord among the
natives, would be a policy too silly
for a second thought. If we are to
remain in the Philippines at all, we
should protect every interest and
strive to keep faith with the natives.
So much ado about consulting the
powers at Rome as to what this coun-
try should do in carrying forward its
own business is another piece of folly
that only men in high places would
think of indulging.

The end of sensations in the state
treasury prosecutions, will perhaps
only end when the last man connected
with the retirement of Mr.. Showers
last fall, shall have been tried and
either acquitted or convicted of some
crime. After the disagreement OF the
Jury in the Rush case last week, Rush
gave out an interview in which he
stated that Governor Lingino had Of
fered to accept his resignation as a
member of the Capitol commission
and end the entire publicity of the
treasury scandal before it reached any
size. The Vicksburg Herald gave
space to the interview, in the n
that Rush was a prosecuted man and
all the powers of the state seemed to
be turned upon him. The Governor
hoped into print very quick through
the Jackson bureau of papers publish
ed outside Of the state, with a positive
denial of any such offer ever being
made by him or authorized by him to
be made. And there the matter stands.
Rush says he did and the Governor
says he didn't. The people are left
to take their choice in the premises,
and since Rush is under a cloud and
the Governor is sailing high, the
chances are, of course, that the latter
will have the best of the findings by
the public.

The newspapers of Jackson are
striving to prove that their town is
as bad as the preachers paint it. But
people who have spent much time in
the capital are of the opinion that the
ministers have only caught onto a
very small part of the badness there.
Much of q more dangerous character
than that described might be found by
detectives who would not feel bound
by their cloth, as the minister Is, to
get in out of the wet by nine O'Clock
at night. Jackson is no sanity place,
as its newspapers show.
