Discovery Of Great oil Well Some
thing Of a Misfortune.
That II is possible TO have too much
OF a good thing was discovered by the
owners Of an oil well In the Russian
petroleum district recently. They
bored down / 500 feet before oil was
reached. Then the well began to
spout and "gushed" at the rate OF 1907
900 barrels a day. Il continued to
send out oil at a diminishing rate
until II had spouted 2OO0.O00. But
the flow was so great that It could
not be controlled and large part OF
the oil escaped and overspread the
adjacent land, doing great injury. The
owners OF the well had TO pay such
heavy damages TO the people whose
land had been overlooked that the
money they got for the oil they man
aged TO save did not amount to
enough TO bring them whole out Of
the transaction. and thus, though they
struck the greatest "gusher" ever seen
In the Baku district, they lost money
by finding It.

THE SLY FOXES

1t appears from the action of the
court of appeals in the injunction
suits to prevent . Democratic state
primary, that the Beckham forces are
on top, and that there will be pri-
mary and no convention.
The Beckhsm faction has walked and
wsllowed over the other fellows. kick
ed them and beaten them, aud now
that it has put them out Of business,
wants to give them the glad hand and
have them vote for Mr.. Beokham-
and the machine men who have pro-
PEELED the primary juggernaut over
them.
The first flag Of truce has been put
out by the Fulton Leader, the Off
cial organ Of Democracy in Southwest
Kentucky, which yesterday remarks:
at is the earnest desire of all good
Democrats that the leaders of both
factions who have been throwing mud
at each other over the primary ques-
tiou should get together and shake
hands for the mutual benefit of the
party. 1t is conceded that state pri-
mary will be held to nom mate officers
in lieu of a convention, and there
seems no good reason why the quar-
rel should be continued. The Lead
er, of course, feels proud to have
cast what little influence it had on
the side that won-the right side
the side of the people-yet it does
not exult in the downfall of its op-
ponents; but rather in the triumph Of
true Democracy.
1.-THE fight has been won, so let us
treat the vanquished with considera-
ton. They made hard struggle
and lost; but it is not necessary for
us to throw it in their face, for that
only creates i'll feeling. What we need
mostly now is harmony-perfect har;
mony. This alone insures our success
this fall. Remember, the Republic
cars will take every advantage given
them, and this useless warfare now
going on, merely adds fuel to the fire
with which they hope to consume the
Democrats at the November election.
A common enemy threatens our bull
warks, SO let Us bury the past, the
petty prejudices, and individual sspi-
rations, for the benefit of the party.
A united Democracy means victory
divided, defeat"
This all sounds very nice, but the
other Democrats, those who have been
fighting for convention, have already
expressed their opinion OF Mr.. Beck
ham, have told what revolution there
would be in the party II Mr.. Beckham
and his friends forced a primary and
"froze out" the impecunious candi-
date, and of course they will now be
only too glad TO forgive and receive
the others with open arms. They seem
to be as easily gulled as they were
whipped.

paraging letters should remember that
it is railway and real estate interests
who have from purely selfish reasons
organized n campaign TO stem the flow
TO Canada. Ii Canada were half as
bad as represented there would be no
need of such an organization. The fact
that such exists is OF itself a magnifi-
cent tribute TO Canada. Finally, it
should not be forgotten that the let
tiers published are brimful of false

cans in the Canadian West constitute

NATIONAL THEATRE PLAN.
Actor Ridicules the Scheme as Being
for Benefit of Rich and Critics.

Actor Ridicules the Scheme as Being
for Benefit of Rich and Critics.
Now there is only one excuse for
the establishment of a nationa,
theatre, and that is the supposed
need of sort of dramatic dollhouse,
in whose forcing beds various I'M
known dramatic quantities may be
planted experimentally, native
dramas of inherent commercial weak
ness kept alive until strong enough to
stand on their own legs, and exotic
plays set out in the hope of ac-
climatization. All this work would
be neutralized by the free admission
scheme, for reasons that only those
who have given serious thought TO
the stage can understand.
A play can be presented, in \
fashion, without music, lights,
scenery or even competent actors,
but there is one thing that is alb
solutely essential to its presentation,
and that is an audience-described
by Bronson Howard as "a collection
of human hearts" An audience does
more than assist" at a dramatic
representation. The action of the
drama does not take place on the
stage, but in the collection of human
hearts which we commonly call an
audience, and these audiences in the
concrete stand in the same relation
to the drama that the soil does to the
plant which it nourishes.
But, after all, nothing is of greater
Importance in the production of a
drama than the collection of human
hearts through which its action must
pass, and in which it must find the
same nourishment that the growing
plant does in the soil and climate
that develop it. II is to be hoped,
therefore, that the congressional
committee will take proper heed of
the Importance of the part played by
the audience before rendering its
decision regarding the national
theatre scheme.-James F. Ford in
Golfers.
