The daily palladium. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1904-1905, 1904-04-11

The character Of Viola In "Twelfth
Night" is one of the most difficult of
any that find a place in any Of
Shakespeare s comedies and requires
an exceptionally good actress to por-
tray the part acceptably. Many of
the shining lights Of the stage have,
in days gone by, essayed to play the
role with Indifferent success, be ii
said, and today Marie Wainwright is
the only actress that is meeting with
marked favor in the dual role of
Viola. Jules hurry, than whom there
is no more painstaking manager in the
country, has staged the piece in a
durable style, surrounded Miss Vain
wright with supporting cast of ex-
ceptional strength and the costuming
is lavishly rich and true to the style
of the time in which the play was
written. Indications point to large
audience at the Gennett theater to-
night, and If the success of a play
depends, as it should, on its merits,
the Gennett will be filled to the walls
with cultured people who delight in
the subtility of Shakespeare s wit
and his poetic love scenes.

Of the act. A number Of reciprocity

American Shipping.
Our commerce in American bottoms
amounts to but 8 per cent Of our total
exports and imports. For seventy
Years prior TO 1860, when the Repuh'
Hcan party came into power, our mer-
chant marine carried an average OF
IS per cent of our foreign commerce.
BY 1877 1t had dwindled to p per cent.
Now we carry but Il cOntempdbly
small fraction Of our exports and i'm
ports.
American shipping in the foreign
trade was greater by over 100. 200 tons
in 1910, nearly 100 years ago, than 1t
was last year Inthe face of the con-
tinuous decline in the record Of Amer
ican shipping during the last forty
three years the promise Of the Repuh-
hcan party to restore it is without en-

task can be more wisely intrusted to

state that am in hearty accord with
that plank in our platform that favors
doing for the Filipinos what we have
already done for the Cubans, and !
favor making the promise to them now
that we shall take such action as soon
as they are reasonably prepared for it.
If independence such as the Cubans
enjoy cannot be prudently granted to
the Filpinos at this time, the promise
that it shall come the moment they
are capable Of receiving it will tend to
stimulate rather than hinder their de-
yelopment. And this should be dene
not only in justice to the Filip1nos, but
to preserve our own rights. for a free
people cannot withhold freedom from
another people and themselves remain
free The liberation Of tyranny over
others will soon breed contempt for free
dom and self government and weaken
our power Of resistance to insidious
usurpation OF our constitutional rights
American Citizenship.
The PLEDGE of the platform to secure
to our citizens, without distinction Of
race or creed. whether native born or
naturaliZed, at home and abroad, the
equal protection of the laws and the
enjoyment Of all the rights and priv
leges open TO them under the covenants
of OUT treaties, as their just due, should

Civil Service.
The statute relating to civil service
is the outcome of the efforts of thought
full unselfsh and public spirited citi-
zens Operation under it has frequent
" been of such 4 character as to Of
fend against the spirit Of the statute,
but the results achieved, even under a
partial enforcement of the law, have
been such as to both deserve and COM
mand the utterance of the Democratic
party that 1t stands committed to the
principle Of civil service reform and
demands Its just and impartial en-
forcement.
Reclamation Of Arid Lands.
A vast expanse of country in the
west, portions Of which are to be found
In each Of the sixteen states and terri
tories, mentioned in the law, is direct
ly affected by the national statute-the
outcome Of intelligent and persistent
efforts Of leading citizens, providing
for the reclamation Of the arid lands
Tor the benefit of home seekers. Dur:
ing the years Of the development Of the
measure which finally received the vote
Of every member Of the upper house
Of congress 1t encountered opposition
based to a large extent upon the view
that the aim of its promoters was to
secure the benefits Of irrigation to
private owners at government expense
The aim of the statute Is, however, t.
enable this vast territory to reclaim
its arid lands without calling upon the
taxpayers of the country at large te
pay for 1t. Whether the purposes Of
the bill will be fully accomplished mus
depend in large measure upon the abii
ity, sobristy Of judgment, independ
ence and honesty Of the officers Of thu
interior department. having this grea

to adhere strictly to the traditional
policy Of the country as formulated by

judgment, wisely departed from-to in

with any Such policy means the ful-
tivation Of peace instead of the glorifica-
ton Of war, and the minding Of our own
business In lieu Of spectacular intermed-
ding with the affairs OF other nations
It means strict observance Of the prfn-
ciples of international law and condemns

1t is very thoughtful and con-
siderate of the New York churchs
to propose to raise a large
sum of money to buy Christmas
presents for children in Japan.
AS the Japanese do not know
what Christmas is, and never
heard about the Santa Claus
myth, and as they are represent
ed as being uniformly happy and
content with the simple life, it is
much to the credit Of the good
people of Manhattan Island that
they have money to spare for
such a very impractical and sem
timental purpose. No need to
say anything about the poor
children OF New York.

to be growing. The Supreme
Courts of Nebraska and Califor-

is claimed that the place to give
children religious instruction are
the home, the church, and the

The elective franchise, the privilege
of deciding by our votes who shall
make and execute our laws, is privil.
ege and responsibility that many fail
to appreciate as such and the principle
underlying this great privilege is
seldom or never thought OF by many.
we are all very ready to find fault with
poor and unjust laws or the failure of
good laws to accomplish the good for
which they were enacted, losing sIpht
of the fact that we as individuals are
largely responsible for the very thing
thing that we censure.
The vote of any one man counts for
as much as the vote of any other man,
so that if a majority of those who vote
give the subject careful and serious
thought, and are Influenced to decis-
ion by the merit of the candidate for
whom they vote, it results not only in
good laws but also in a conscientious
enforcement of same; while, if we are
influenced in our choice by sordid mo-
tive, by pecuniary gain or the prospect
it, it often results in the election to
Office of men who are in no way quail
fled to represent the best interests of
the community from which they are
elected.
The active interest that Mr.. Josiah
Howard has always taken, both in sup
porting and in originating movements
that had for advancement of the
good interests of the people and his
constant and consistent effort, both by
precept and example, to uplift the
moral standard of the community, is
surely a convincing reason why he
should receive the aid and votes of the
people. A vote for Josiah Howard is a
vote for the advancement of the inter-
ests of the people, and an aggressive
effort toward the promotion of the
material and moral welfare of the whole
county.
