few seasons that. all the worthy mu-
sicaI and dramatic attractions have
fallen into the habit of passing It by.
The city has always prided itself upon
its culture, but it is the "Tiily Olson
drama that enjoys a profitable weeks
run and an Irving performance that
doesn't pay expenses. A rural comedy
runs for week, but the legitimate play
is booked for three nights, and then
the company is apt to carry away with
it painful memories Of empty seats.
And musical entertainments fare no
better. The individual who does
stunts" with fiddle or piano may count
on fair audience, at least, but

nies on practically empty houses. 1t
has come to pass, indeed, that We re-
ceive most of our musical enjoyment
in Minneapolis. If, in the future, all
musical announcements shall be made
from the town UP the river and shall
include advice as to which one of Mr..
Lowry's vehicles a devoted few in this
city shall take, ST. Paul will not have
the right to complain. The bringing of
a musician Of renoWn to the city has
come to represent a gamble, and the
impresario is nearly always the loser.
St.Paul should undertake to provide
large, discriminating and appreciative
audience for such worthy musical and
dramatic attractions as chance to visit
here. Occasionally during the season
it wakes up long enough to wonder
why some distinguished entertainer has
visited Minneapolis and has failed to
visit the capital, or why some "b'gosh''
comedy or some musical triviality is.

beyond grumble This season there is
no good reason why it should not take
a firm resolution to patronize produc-
tions that deserve patronage and there
by strengthen its waning reputation as
a good entertainment town. No the
atrical manager, no musical impre-
sario is willing to sacrifice himself in
order to promote the legitimate. The
city must make demand for it, and it's
demand will not be granted until it
proves that it can provide large audi
ences for entertainments that deserve

Rose sydeI at the star

Rose Sydeii and her London Bellies
the Star theater this week. There is
not weak feature in the entire pro-
gramme, and most of the two hours and
a half is filled up with bright lines and
acts. n
The costumes, especially those worn by
Miss Sydell, are both unique and gorgeous
The opening burletta presents the deck Of
an ocean liner, on which Miss Sydell, as
the American comic opera star. Nancy
Hanks, under the management of a wise
American manager: l.. Fleecem, por-
trayed by W. S. Campbell, becomes the
center of attraction between the love af-
fairs of a rich German, Snitz Hazen-
feffer, and an equally rich Irishman,
Michael Hogan. The part of the German
is taken by an amusing comedian, Johnny
Webber, while the Irish work is done
by John ]. Kenney, who. aside from some
remarks derogatory to the audience. does
creditable work. Some pleasing songs, in
which a shapely chorus shows to good ef-
feet, are followed by the wreck OF the
steamer. The closing act shows cave
at the bottom of the sea, in which the
mem bers of the stranded company gather
around their lost queen and manager and
manifest their appreciation OF the fact
that Davy Jones does not claim the en-
tire group.
The oiio is headed by a good looking,
powerfully built young man: who is known
epert. His act is absolutely new, and
borders on the supernatural. A wonder
full control over his muscles, chest ex-
pansion which is absolutely the largest
In the world, dislocation of various bones
and muscles, and a development little
short of marvellous, make the act the
strongest on the bill.
The Weston sisters. pair of buXom
young women in a. singing, dancing and
bag punching act, evoke loud applause.
Jack and Bertha Riches form clever
singing and dancing pair. while Kenney
and Hollis. comedians and impersonators,
and the Bijeu comedy trio in novelty
act, are above the average. Campbell,
Webber and the chorus, with elaborate
stage settings, present a revival of the
old-time living picture act which is beau
tifuIlY staged.

it was this feature that built UP the
Standard Oil trust-Windom Citizen.

ensuing predicameTtS, misunderstanding

OF the hilarious sort for the play is of

But Miss Ring furnishes a convincing
embodiment of the chorus, or rather
show girl who considers it her duty
ana privilege to fool the silly men. Miss
Rlng does not appear until the second act,
which takes place in VivianS apartments.
Here she sings -Bedelia' Seminole"
Kate Kearney.' and other character bal
lads with irresistible relish. Her imita-
tons of French chansonettes at the Folics
Bergeres and the serio comics in London
music halls were notably clever and novel
contributions. Nature has favored Miss
Ring in face and figure and her histrionic
talent is unmistakable though of course the
character of Vivian does not call for the
display of any deep emotion or refined
feeling. Indeed refinement and delicacy
are not conspicuous traits of this creation
by Leo Ditrichstein
Miss Ring was ably seconded by that
unique comedian, Harry Conor, who play
ed one of Vivian's papas. Mr.. Conor's
facial expressions, poses and rapid fire
delivery constitute funny combination.
Thomas Burns gave a creditable imper-
sonation of the bachelor uncle, Vivian's
other papa. imparting distinct individual
1ty to the role and providing an excellent
foil for MIR. ConorS imperSonation.
Lille Hall was a convincing embodiment
of an expansive ''black nanny" Cynthia,
maid to Vivian. Josephine Lovett was pref
ty and satisfying in the character of the
jealous Mrs. Farnham. Emma Janvier
contributed an amusing caTicature of a
stage struck woman who had once sung in
the chorus, had married out of it, and still
sighed for the stage again.
The other characters merit no special
mention either in point of conception by
the playwright or execution by the play

MONDAY, OCT. "a, 1904
A TERRIBLE STORY

We republish this morning from tho
editorial page of the New York Times
the most terrible arraignnent Of the
Republican administration at Wash
ington that has ever been made. It IS
terrible because it contains no villifi-
cation, is written in tone of sober
earnestness and consists entirely of
statements of record. 1t is terrible be-
cause it is true.
The campaign which the Republican
party is now making is, morally con-
sidered, perhaps the evilest of our
time. At the instigation of the attor-
ney of a rival concern, the United
States brought a legal action which,
while interfering with the ~beneficent
work of a great agency for the devel-
opment of this country, resulted in
comforting upon the national govern
ment tremendous power. This power
was nothing more or less than the
privilege Of dealing at its pleasure,
with practically unlimited authority,
with the great trusts and combinations
that have grown up in the industrial
affairs of the United States. Forth
with the private secretary Of the presi-
dent was placed in charge of a depart
ment authorized to investigate the af-
fairs of trusts, and coming into pos
session of their secrets. Then this
same gentleman was transferred to the
craftsmanship of the national Repub
lican committee, and he and a Repub-
lican senator controlling the committee
that regulates business affairs made a
tour of Wall street for campaign funds.
Two results have followed. One is
that the Republican campaign fund is
the largest upon record. Instead Of a
modest effort backed by small amounts
and relying upon the popularity Of the
Individual we have contest in which
the Republicans are putting millions
where they will do the most good.
They are not doing this ostentatiously
as in former years, but those behind
the scenes know that the money is be-
ing spent without stint. The other fact
is that the trusts have not been inter-
fered with. The beef trust goes on it's
way unhampered, although a word
from Washington would tame it. Mil
lions upon millions have been accumu-
lated by the holders of special favor
and unjust privilege, and these men are
earnestly and insistently demanding
the election of President Roosevelt.
This is a situation to appal the
thoughtful man and the patriot The
warning carried in the conclusion of
the article which we have republished
is not overdrawn. No people ever have
tolerated or ever will tolerate this par
ticular form of abuse. Certainly the
American people will not. The ques-
tion is whether they viii revolt against
it now and put down the party that Is
the mother of trusts and clucks low
ingly to the monstrous brood. or
whether these evil influences. not who'll
" realized perhaps by the better class
of men whom they sway, have display
ed their ugliness in such shape that the
people will rise in their might and
smash them. Are we to. have a gov
ernnent by the people. and when?

SOCIALISM AND IGNORANCE

We publish this morning -communi
cation from the state organizer of the
public ownership party, taking issue
with an assertion by T he Clio ID e
that the socialistic theory is based on
ignorance. The facts contained in the
communication are not new, and the
statement made was made with full
knowledge that many highly educated
men have gone into or strongly SYM
pathized with the socialistic movement.
Nevertheless, it holds good.
Perhaps to no man can the word
though in slightly different form from
its ordinary significance, than to him of
good natural intelligence who has per-
mitted his common sense and his log
ical faculty to be overridden by SEN
in a very -culpable and lamentable
sense. Of this material are the the
orists and faddists of all degrees.
There are people who do not allow
the perpetual facts of history and hu
man nature to interfere with a dear
conception Of their own. They ride on
toward that in the same spirit and
with the same. .futility as the man who
devotes laborious days and nights to
the invention of a machine that viii
realize perpetual motion. It is exact
ly the same failing in both cases; and
as no one hesitates to call it ignorance
in the one, so we think no one sub
ject to criticism for using that term in
the other.
As to the following of the socialistic
party and its tendencies, we have to
take more direct issue with the writer
of this letter. The rank and file Of
those who join in the socialistic move
ment, except in as far as, they too are
one-ideaed men, led astray by the in
tensity of some particular notion, are
not misused by the term Ignorant"
People of fine sentiment and humane
motive have become bewildered in the
eternal chase after that short cut to
the millennium that does not exist. As
to the question of class issue and class
prejudice, we have only to ask any
reader to go to any socialistic meeting
and hear the average socialistie
speech, and he will find out for himself.
1t was precisely that element which
caused our original comment on the
speech of the socialistic candidate for
president.
No one who views human history and
sociology and the growth of moral
ideas in all their true relations with
one another can think for a moment Of
socialism, considered as practical
working scheme. as an intelligent thing.
It is an ideal of the far future. An at
tempt to apply it at the present time
is just as futile as scheme to promote
honesty among men by leaving purses
full of gold lying about day and night
on every street corner.

Rose Melville portrays the Indiana

chanical rut that naturally follows the
extended enacting of the same role Frank
Minzey continues in interpreting the char
acter of the country lawyer, Ridy. and
does it as capably as of yore. Edward
Hume still plays Bart Varnum. John T.

but he is fully competent, and as an &C.

any of his predecessors. Florence Web
