are said to be attractive and realistic,
while the characters are representative of
the life in the feverish days of 40. Miss
Bates is given many strong lines and high
ly emotional situations. Mr.. Robert Hill
has great scope for the display of his dra-
matte talent. Each member of the COM
pany has been selected by Mr.. Belasco

to the play, and for the purpose of provlo-

all of the music for Mr.. Belasco, but re

VICTORY NOW CERTAIN.
(By John M. Harlan.)

never have doubted the capacity
of this community to reach sensible
conclusion on any practical question
submitted to it. That the final out
come of this campaign will justify
this confidence in the good judgment
of the people is not question of
doubt. The tide in favor of the re-
publican ticket has set in and is run
ming strongly and steadily. Careful
observers of municipal elections in
Chicago long have noted that the SEN
timent finally prevailing at the. polls
begins to run in favor of the success
full candidate just about two. weeks
before election day. The sentiment
now prevailing, beyond question, indi-
Gates the success Of the republican
ticket by a big majority.
This pronounced attitude in favor
of the republican platform is readily
explained. The people as a whole,
without regard to party, are doing
their own thinking on the issues of
this campaign. They are listening to
the statements made to them by the
candidates, but they are reaching
their own conclusions. They are
studying matters for themselves and
are not. accepting the conclusions of
others as a basis for their own judg-
ment. They have compared the re-
publican platform with the democratic
platform. They have turned toward
the former as the true avenue to
sound solution of the traction question
and to good government in the mu-
nicipality.
1t is demonstrated now that the peo-
nle do not propose to pay $100,000,000
for out of date traction lines and al
legged franchise rights and then to
have to spend other millions in re-
habilitating them. They realize that
municipal ownership is not only more
certain under the republican plan, but
nicipal administration much more
quickly than under the democratic
method of procedure. The absolute
pledge of the republican candidate of
referendum vote by the people on
any proposed solution of the traction
question before it shall become effec-
tive has been accepted by the people
as complete safeguard of their rights
in their own streets.
The people also are not neglecting
the other issues of this campaign.
They are thinking Of administrative
reforms; of a reorganized police force;
of enough schools for the children; of
parks and Fairgrounds; of getting rid
of the holdup man; of pure water and

What is the matter with Russia?
Pretty much the same thing that is
the matter with the United States-a
race problem. In the United States,
certain unpleasant conditions are at

theory is incorrect, for just such con-
ditions exist in Russia, where all the
people are of one and the same color

theirs similarly strutted. And OF all
things fatal to pomposity, ridicule is

possible to deny that the ridiculer

The little brown Jap has proven
himself to be man of high type by
whaling the big white Russians most
numerically; but that does not make
him persona grata to the Pacific coast
hoodlums. The California senate has
adopted a resolution in reference to
the menace of Japanese immigra-
tion." And that reminds us that
few years ago, Japan closed her door
on account of the menace of Ameri-
can immigration, and old Commo-
dore Perry went over and broke the
door down. That was when Japan
was feeble and ignorant, and the old
Commodore could not repeat his feat
at the present day without some
trouble.
