AT THE PLAY LAST NIGHT.

"'The Prisoner Of Zenda" has been

people who attended Crawf0rd's play

disappointed.

a Campaign Against Socialism.

New York Mail and Express:
1t is to be hoped that the report which
comes from Washington that a cam
paign is to be begun against socialism
is correct and that it will be conducted
with intelligence and Vigor. As out
lined the campaign is to begin at once,
it is to be educational in its character
and it is to be prosecuted steadily
through this and next year. The plan
is the result of many consultations
among leading Republicans, including
such men as Senator Hanna, Secretary
of the Navy Moody, Postmaster General
Payne and Senator SpOoner of Wiscon-
sin. They propose to make an earnest
and comprehensive effort to check the
spread of sOcialistic ideas and to sup
plant them with sound, conservative
opinions on Industrial questions. govern
mental policies and all subjects affecting
society and the individual. The scheme
IS thoroughly commendable one. and
1t should receive the support not only
of all Republicans. but of all intelligent
and disinterested citizens as well.
Next in interest to the sweeping Re
publican victory in the elections last
fall was the large vote pOlled by the
candidates nominated by Socialist and
Social La Dor parties. This vote showed
a phenomenal increase in nearly every
northern state. The total Socialist vote
cast was about 100000. In the presi-
Dental election Of 1900 the two distinct
lively SOcialistic candidates DOlled only
Barker who ran as the Middle of the
Road POpulist candidate, be added, the
total SOcialistic vote in the last presi-
Dental election was 1919 Two years
later, in an off year election. when
questions were less exciting and the poll
smaller, the Socialists more than
doubled their vote. And the most
significant feature of this increase is
that it was most marked in the eastern
states. although a general increase is
noticed in nearly every western state
The southern states, in fact, are the
only ones in which Socialism did not
appear to be growing factor.
The present is a good time to begin
campaign against Socialism. The pub
lie mind is in a state to receive and
assimilate truths and is not prejudiced
as it will be when the presidential cam
paign of 1904 is well under way Help
will come from other sources also. IN
Chicago for instance, the German Cath
Ollie societies have begun to organize
labor unions within the ranks of the
church, but an indispensable qualifica-
ton to membership is an exclusion Of
all Socialistic ideas. Similar movements
will doubtless be begun elsewhere, and
they viii prove valuable helps in COM
batting Socialism. If in addition, the
campaign of education against Social
ism, as outlined from Washington. is
systematically and vigorously pressed,
there need be no fear that Socialistic
ideas viii become a menace to the peace
and stability Of society in this country.

SOUTHERN FLOOD.
A ID Hour Rain Has Fallen in
kentucky.

New Orleans, La, March 10.-The river
here rose only 20 Of a foot in the PAST
twenty-f0ur hours. Dirt is being hauled
to the river front and weak places made
secure. No news Of additional breaks
along the Louisiana fOurche have been
received. The two which occurred yes
terday relieved the strain upon the
leveeS- While the damage by these
breaks Will be considerable it will be en-
tirelS local.
Louisville, KY. March 10.-A heavy
twelve-hour ram, extending over a "a
dius Of fifty miles, with it's center at
Louisville. Will, according to the local
weather bureau officials, cause a rise in
the river tomorrow to two feet above
the danger line. The lowlands in Indi-
ana and Kentucky are flooded for miles
Evansville. Ind. March 10.-A report
from ShaWneetOWn. Ill, today is to the
effect that the people are debating the
feasibility of removing from the city
with their personal property and then
opening the leVee and allowing the river
to flood the town, thus doing away with
the great danger of disaster that now
threatens the place, which is situated
on low ground and protected by a large
levee which the people fear. may break
should the river rise much more. The
story cannot be confirmed but those
who know the situation of the city be-
lieve it true. A few years ago the levee
broke and the place was inundated and
scores drowned.
There is no danger to Evansville as
the city IS on high ground but the sur
rounding country is inundated. The
people were given ample warning and
saved themselves and property. The
gauge this morning marks 422 and
rising with steady fall of rain The
rise has been more than half a foot
since yesterday.

Slightly 6corehed.

The handsome residence Of W. G. Kelly
at SIG Tyler street was damaged by fire
this morning. The fire started from a hot

THREE GO BY BOARD.
Nick Chiles and Others Have Joint
Gases Dismissed.

Three liquor cases went by the board
in the district court this morning for want
of prosecution
The strange part of it is that the cases
were brought by Assistant Attorney Gen
eral A. l. Redden. who has been the one
who was expected to be strenuous in the
prosecution Of the violators of the prohib-
itory law. The cases were against N.
Chiles w Kiley and R Kneiser. They
have been on the docket for some time
and Judge Hazen refused to carry them
on without their being prosecuted.

there is a larger proportion OF high

than in class recitations. People who
