the department are carried on.

la with the Mack Swain Theatre COM
pany after an absence of several years
during which time he has been en-
gagged in chorus productions in the
east. Mr.. Duchand spent several years
associated with coast dramatic and

well known compositions, mas for many
years held an established reputation
as an orchestra and chorus director.
With the Swain company the musical
and specially program, under the direc-
ton of Mr.. Duchand, is made a feature
and the results not only indicate Mr..
SWANS intention of giving a high
grade performance in every respect but
also establish a record in repertoire

Swain had a comedy role in the play
that gave him excellent opportunity tt

work was artistic and he made a great
hit with the audience, which was q
large one. Cora King Swain added
new laurels to her reputation as ar
actress and gave an excellent portray
al of the character of Ethel Douglass
The remainder of the cast were up in

the final performance last evening.

There is something about the West

appeals to the heart. Nevertheless
there is much to be enjoyed in these

Cured at least in part after the pas
sage of the Elkins law, and That the
United States has pending today a case
against the Santa Fee railroad for vio-
I lating its injunction. Nor is it pos
sible to forget that a fragrant case of
rate discrimination has been charged
against the Great Northern railroad
within a few days. Rebates may be
dying out as the result of publicity,
but there is no evidence that with
withdrawal of public interest the rail-
roads would continue to be so suspi-
ciously good.
AS to private car lines if it is a fact
that they are disappearing, the credit
rests with the commission and not with
the RAILROADS. The commission has
been protesting against the iniquities
of this system for several years and
the railroads have been playing the
baby act, telling the commission that
they were powerless in the matter,
could not control the rates, and so on
ad nauseam. But when the commits
sion took hold of the Michigan fruit
cases and showed up the contract be-
tween the Armour car lines and the
Pere Marquette railroad the railroad
promised to be good and to abrogate
that contract as soon as it expired and
to see that thereafter icing charges
were reasonable.
1t is true that publicity has done
quite a little for the relief of shippers
in the past few months and tina will
continue to do much. But it is the
American system to crystalize public
opinion into law. This is what the
railroad literary bureau is trying to
prevent by two separate and contradict
tory lines of appeal. 1t argues first
that there are not and never were
many abuses, and that therefore, there
never has been any need for legislation;
second, that the abuses have disap-
peared and, therefore, there is now no
need of new legislation. The railroad
defense is quite a good deal like that
of the man who was sued for the
value of kettle. He set up in defense.
first, that he never borrowed the ket-
tie; second, it was cracked when he
got it; third, he returned it as good as
new.

POLITICS AND PRINTING.

Richard Weightman of the Chicago
Tribune, discussing the scandals in the
government printing office, suggests
that there are but two ways to cure
them; either give the public printer
authority commensurate with his re-
sponsibilities or shut up the shop and
let the printing out by contract. The
latter he believes to be the preferable
plan, since it would take the printing
out of politics and save the government
millions every year.
The United States has owned and
operated it's printing works for good
many years. Doubtless it was at first
demanded on the ground that it would
save the government many millions of
dollars. Now it appears that it not
only costs the country money, but
art-burnings as well.
Nevertheless, no man now living ex-
poets to see the public print shop aban-
doned. Congress is too fond of print
ing for that to come about. More

the market for it's enormous printing,

AUTOS FOR INDIANS.
Luxuries Of Civilization Take Fortunes
of Aboriqines.

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Sept. 2S-
Reports made by assessors of listed
property of the Indians in Rosebud and
Cheyenne reservations snow that the
Sioux Indians possessed the following
treasures: Three hundred and twenty
telephones, IS automobiles, 9 horses
(used as carriages), % pianos and 60
organs.
The fact that AZ divorces had been
secured by the Indians during the past
year seems to Indicate that the Sioux
has become an apt pupil of the white
man.
Often, when they receive $4,000 or
more for their allotted lands, Indians
go to Omaha, or Sioux City, see a
striking looking automobile and
spend their entire fortune for one like
it.

are dying natural death. 1t is not
so long since the public was informed
That since the passage of the Elkins
law rebates had disappeared. There
fore, one great reason for charging the
powers of the interstate commerce
commission had disappeared. The lat
est is that the evils of private car lines

second reason for enlarging the
powers of the commission loses its
force
1t is very pleasant to learn that the
railroads are SO sensitive to public
opinion that they give up evil prac-

are being watched. But let us go a
little bit slowly in confiding all to the
honor of the railroad managers. Let
us strive to remember that the COL
