100 MANY ExRoslrloNs.

1t would seem as If expositions are
becoming too common. The ST. Louis
Exposition is not yet open but already
preparations are being made for two
other expositions. one in Oregon and
the other in Virginia. Although the st.
Louis enterprise vii doubtless be the
largest and most important one seen
here it would be much more interesting
if twenty or twenty-five years had
elapsed since the Chicago exposition.
There has been great advancement In
almost every direction since that time
but unfortunately for the ST. Louis
show. the interest Of the people has
not made such rapid strides. Ambitious
cities should take warning by the ex-
perienees OF Buffalo and Charleston,

80 rlrrlnrH ANNIvERsARY.

The Republican party this year
passes its half century mark, and It
hah to It's credit fifty years Of efficiency
and honor 1t is fitting that there
should be some special observance In
commemoration Of it's hfteth anniver-
sary. Tor Il has been in power during
most Of the period OF ita existence, and
its supremacy has been co-incident
with unexamped prosperity.
No nation has ever advanced in a
period Of fifty years as the United
states has advanced. and surely this
could mol have been accomplished had
the dominant party not possessed the
highest merit,
1t came into being as the result Of
necessity. The great problems which
led to the civil war were pressing for
solution. and they found two parties
impotsnt and only able TO eject COM
promises.
The Republican party was formed
for two purposes; TO save the Union
and to prohibit the extension of slav-
cry. When IN tho fulness OF time It
became necessary TO abolish human
bondage. Il was a Republican president
who issued the PROCLAMATION, and a
Republican consross that gave It ef-
feet.
Histories are being writton covering
the period IN which It has existed. but
the best history consists Of a record Of
the events which have happened and
the measures which have been inaugur-
ated by our people. Tho school chill
dren IN studying their history lessons
are learning Of the acts Of the Repub-
lican party
II has had courage. When there was
proposition to repudiate the war debt
the Republican party demanded that
every penny should be paid. and fol-
lowing that policy we established our
credit among the peoples OF the earth.
il was the Republican party which de-
clared for return to specie payments
and thus re-eHtahlished our credit
throughout the world.
II has maintained the doctrine OF n
protective tariff, under which we have
grown from an agricultural people into
the foremost manufacturing country in
the world. And under the administra-
tion OF Republican presidents we have
come TO be recognized as one OF the
very foremost powers OF the world,
There have been minor mistakes in
policy; there have been oniciai scan
dals but the party Itself has been able
to care for them and to correct all
abuses. The people of the United
States. regardless Of political predllec-
tions, owe TO the Republican party al
Immense debt OF gratitude.

Richmond. April 1.--When the scribe
lays down his pen, and suit case in
hand fees from cares OF newspaper
dom, he is certain to proclaim most pos
itively that he doesn't propose to look
at a newspaper for a week, and as for
writing-well. he is going to forget that
he ever learned how.
BY the time the train boy has made
his second appearance he decides that
he win buy one paper just to learn
what Congress IS doing, and that Is the
beginning of collection so complete
that his itinerary might be marked by
these various sheets.
Then when he reaches his hotel and
unpacks that suit case he Is not sur
prised to find a roll OF copy paper
the kind that the newspaper man
knows-the rough kind, large sheets
that invite the pencil; and right there
habit asserts itself and he begins to
burden the mails with copy.
My trip took me southwark just as

II Ia to be hoped that the local brick
layers and their employees will be able
to settle their differences without a
strike. II they were to go on a strike
for long period It would mean that
hundreds Of other men employed in
other branches Of the building trades
would bo forced to stop work for some-
time. Neither the employer or employees
can afford this. The winter just pass
ed has been hard one and completely
tied up building operations in Whining
ton, thus causing loss to builders and
workmen alike.
The business interests Of the city de-
mand that building proceed as rapidly
as possible In fact it cannot pro-
ceed fast enough for the good Of the
city. There is a crying need for
houses Of all description and even II
there is no strike of the building
trades the supply will not meet the
demand, SO It can readily be seen
what blow 1t win be to the city to

Theatrical Notes

Love, duplicity. honor and craftiness
run riot through "Othello," unquestion-
ably the most melodramatic of all
Shakesperean works. yet withal, it is
one of the most interesting life plays
the Bard of Avon ever gave to the
world. 1t more nearly approaches the
melodramatic in tone, action, plot and
situations than any of his other nu-
merous works and three Of the charac-
ters IN IT, "Othello," "Desdemona," and
"Iago," have enough intrinsic worth
In them TO satisfy the most exacting in
their demands for life, virility and ac-
tion. There Is much modern realism IN
the story OF the love OF "Othello," a
Moor. for the Venetian maiden, "Des-
demona," and OF the plotting, trickery,
chicanery and subterfuges adopted and
practiced by the scheming "Iago," one
Of the greatest villains ever seen upon
the stage. The play will be presented
at the Grand Opera House tonight with
Harry Leighton as "Othello" and Miss
Florence Gale as "Desdemona."
