"Ghosts'' a Wonderful Success

When Henrik Ibsen's masterpiece.
Ghosts was first produced it set the
world by the ears at once. One half
called tine author crazy, while the
other half found him unpardonably
immoral. Notwithstanding this great
hue and cry, August Lindberg, a
Swedish actor, had the audacity in
1888, two years after the first produc-
ton. to organize company OF his
own for the express purpose OF pre-
senting the interdicted play. His
tour through the three Scandinavian
countries was splendid artistic and
financial success. At Christiania he
could get nothing better than dingy

crowds attend his performances of
"Ghosts" in every town, and consid-

failure for Ibsen's masterpiece, his
success is truly wonderful. The play

passing Of a. !nf:ae! organ.

After seventy years, the Boston IN
vestigatorH has ceased TO exist. 1t w
the organ OF ~infidelity. 1t was found
ed by a Clergyman who had found the
faiths OF his fathers 100 narrow for
him. and who vi condemned by 4
grand jury in Boston for denying the
existence of God, and sentenced to
sixty days imprisonment. That was
no longer ago than 1884, and it was
the last trial Of that kind in the Bay
State. A Universalist clergyman was
moved to exclaim: Surely the I'M
,prisonnent of an old, white-haired man
for a few fanatical, skeptical words
was one of the most ~barbarous as we'll
as impolitic ~expedients OF the nine
teenth century. Abner Kneeland's
moral character is as clear of blemish
as we can reasonably hope to see
anywhere" Kneeland left the State
soon after his release from prison,
and died in Iowa. leaving his paper
to others, who wageG war against
Christianity in a way to let few people
know about it. For few know the
"Investigator," or know that q paper
had been maintained for no other pur-
pose than to argue religious faith out
of existence. 1t has eve been widely
quoted. it has never eXerted any
marked influence, it has never obtain
ed a circulation such as is enjoyed by
the religious papers. and they circu-
late none too largely. But the reason
for it's demise is that it is not needed.
if ever it was needed. Speech is as
free as thought, M requires no de-
tenders when it is directed against
the established faiths. Science has
said s~uardedly. and as i~noffensively
as it could, that the dogmas so long
held sacred We're insupportable by rea-
son and contrary to nature. Tom
Paine shocked our grandfathers, but
we have listened patiently TO lnger-
soil. There is. however. another rea-
son for the failure of the jutidel paper,
and it is that although religion does
not appear to be gaining ground there
is a growing recognition OF h social
value and an in~dispOsitiOn among
even the i~rreIicious TO make light OF
that phase of il. Religion asks no
law to defend it from attack.-Brook-

BOSTON, Sep. 2S.-G- F. Francis
Peabody is going to Vote for ROosc-
welt for President.
Il cannot forgive the Democrats
for nominating Bryan in 1896 and
1900" said he this afternoon. Il be
lieve there is less danger from Roosc-
velt's election than Parkcv's. What
particularly i]ncenses me is the nam-
ing of Davis for Vice President and
the domination OF Bryan over thc con
vention. The idea of naming a MAJ
as old as Davis for Vice President is
shocking. l think. Just because they
expected a lot OF money they name a
mar of more than so for the place.
If that is not selling nominations am

Sdvfce to Democracy.

Eel us drive out of the party every
Democrat who betrays his trust, ev-
cry official who would administer the
office for his private advantage. Let
u make Democracy stand not only
for good government "of the people,
b the people and for the people
indeed, YOU are entitled to syrnpa-
aty. With his disruption in your
ranks and your distracted condition,
confronted with progress, prosperity
and a happy condition Of the people,
brought about under the seven years
AT Republican rule. Republican prin-
cipIes, and Republican policies, it is
main to you and to everybody that
your defeat is certain next Noven-
Der. This is unfortunate for you,
viewing it from a political standpoint;
+ but now fortunate it is for the Amer
lean people that we have such a clean,
fearless, honest, patriotic President.
One who haslabored so earnestly,
conscientiously and faithfully to full
fill his burdensonle duties, always in
thorough sympathy with he best in
terests of all the people, always pur-
suing his duty with fidelity, dignity,
and a rectitude of purpose, dominated
by noble and lofty ideals; a states
man, a diplomat, fortified by q wealth
Of learning; 4 mar whose character,
success, record, both private and pub
lie. IS without a stain of immortality,
deception, fraud or corruption, his
royalty to principles, his devotion to
truth, his urtiring energy, his lofty
ideals and conscientious work, entitle
MIN TO the respect and admiration of

Such is Theodore Roosevelt, the
man whom the Republican party will
present as its candidate in the com
ing election; and, gentlemen, you are
wasting ink, time and energy in cir
