THE GHOST OF fORMf9 DAYS
Patti Is No Longer tn Sescen

Patti seems to have disilIuaaoued
many Of her admirers on the Pacific
coast In her recent visit, by which We
are reminded OF the old saw, tho

Los Angeles Express. speaking Of her
appearance in that city. says:
Patti has come and gone. at q cost

remains as the result OF her visit7
Only the memory Of a broken voice. Of
once wonderful organ Of song. worn

care and cosmetics. be-wigged and be-
jeweled, capering and mincing her
steps. bossing and futtering her hands
to an audience that cared less for her
vocal ability than for her physical
appearance, one that was willing 70
pay its good dollars to see the woman
who once ruled the operatic impre-
sarios with a rod Of gold.
Such an exhibition of well-preserved
good health must have been sat-
isfactory to those who would emulate
her example: but as to the artistic
side Of the matter. It was simply
showing OF the extent to which Gu
pidity and vanity win carry q wo-
man. well along in years.
1t Is a great pity that Patti will
thus cavort about the country dis
playing herself and the remains OF her
once perfect voice and by the mere
thread OF Its beauty doing all In her
power 10 tear down the fabric of rep
utation that she has builded In the
last forty years. Many OF her audi
tors on this trip go to hear the
wonderful singer: what they hear. II
they have aught OF discrimination.

was a gorgeous fake" Many who
had heard the singer In her prime
had the good Judgment to stay away
from the exhibition Of reJuvenated Ne
nility. preferring to keep the memory
of her artistic abilities untarnisned.

Courageous and Patriotic.

The best republicans in the state of
Washington are the Whitman county
republicans, who have ust met in con-
vention and adopted the following
patriotic resolutions:
CAS- republicans who believe in po-
litical honesty and political decency, we
register our emphatic protest against
the shameless and degrading influence
of the railway lobby over the republic
can party of this state"
1t took courage to adopt that plank
courage and high sense of civic duty.
If republicans in other counties were as
brave and high minded as the republic
cans of Whitman county, the railroad
lobby would soon be put out Of business,
honest and fearless officials like Gov
ernor Mcbride would be rewarded, the
pass evil would be Obliterated, and we
should have at the next session legis-
lature to be proud of.-Spokesman-
