HURT
THE SHOW BUSINESS

That tho 1O.cent vaudeville show
houses have been "doing things" to the
road shows during the past few months
IS n dead certainty, and the pocket book
OF many a manager has suffered through
She many cheap, continuous perform
snces.
i This condition is true especially in
cities like Portland, where the people
were for a time vaudeville.mad, and
where a dozen clean, respectable houses
presented short acts at short price.
A road manager recently in Salem,
IN talking Of the condition prevalent
on the coast this year, said: "Tbe big
strong companies had hard work max
ing ends meet on the coast, and the
Middle West was the only thing that
saved them from bankruptcy. The
musical shows cut into the business.
and they left n pretty bare field for
the legitimate drama. This, with the
strong opposition from the vaudeville
houses, whore the people Aocked, made
fhe ground pretty slim picking for the
companies with big payrolls.
81 remember down IN Salt Lake.
where ! met one of tho big companies,
they played to the first good house in
ten weeks, and were indeed happy. The
actors were about TO give up the ship,
as fhe manager was two months back
IN pay, and had severe attack of the
blues" The next few days pulled
him oat Of the hole, and saved the
'ompany, but other managers were not
70 fortunate, and there are ruins Of
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1905-02-28

all kinds scattered throughout the
West.
"The vaudeville business paid well
for time, but the novelty in the big
cities is wearing of, and the owners Of
houses have to rack their brains to
keep something before the public.
Novelties are sought after, and the re
suit Is that the prices for such acts
are going mp TO a point where it costs
a lot Of money to secure them. The
show people think that vaudeville has
had its run, and look forward to bet
ter times next year"

goes and probably will so continue
There are poor people and always will
be. but many of them who are so
might by a little foresight avoid ex'
treme need. In conclusion the little
marty that was discussing the matter
came to the conclusion that the IN
stallment man was a bugbear to a city
and its poorer classes and something
should be done to rid city Of him.
It was said, too, that there were cases
where a family could not avoid being
1oor, but they were few.

NO DIsCREDIT IN ADVERTISING.
Insurance PrObers In Danger Oi
"SIOppinR Over"
Chicago Chronicle

chicago chronicle.
Whenever men become reused to what
they call enthusiasm there is always the
danger of stopping over"
The insurance investigation in New York
has been conducted with unusual ability
and ample results. hut there are signs Of
approaching the slop-over stage. The ma
ture OF the output indicates that the dig
| gers have got of the vein" or the vein
| itself is near exhaustion.
They have begun to show that some of
| the big insurance companies have been
paying money for newspaper advertising
| ever since the pending investigation began.
Probably there was no necessity for any
effort TO prove that. No doubt all parties
concerned would have cheerfully admitted
! the Sact.
Is there anything Fdlscreditable in that?
II so these companies and millions Of busi-
1 ness men the country over have been
doing themselves discredit since the day
when each one OF them began business.
Prudent and far-seeing business men in
our time would be quite sure TO expand
their newspaper advertising more and more
freely in proportion as they might antici-
pate injury to their business from any
outside source.
Newspaper advertising has always been
a recognized, legitimate and entirely hon
oTable method OF promoting business. To
sell space for informing the public about
, various facts and conditions OF different
business ventures is one OF the open. I'M
disguised aims OF the newspapers. At what
rate the space is paid for can not possibly
concern anybody but the newspaper and
the men who pay
The newspapers openly and avowedly
offer 10 all alike the means OF informing
the world OF the particulars OF the business

OF knowing than have the readers. What
they vouch for is only that the matter Is

undisguised, thoroughly understood bust
ness transaction. Every advertiser steps
into the open" at once.
To drag the fact into an investigation
like this and In way 20 suggest the pur-
pose OF implying that to advertise is to do
something discreditable is 20 do that
which is utterly foreign 20 the just aims
OF this investigation and is a gross atfront

APPALLING COST OF MIL1TARIsM.
Billions Expended I'm Maintaining
Modern Fighting Machines.

Modern Fighting Machines.
Clyde Hambright, in Leslies Weekly.
Practically, the modern lighting machines
have evolved in the last four decades In
that time the cost OF maintaining and
equipping armies in time of peace has
doubled, while the naval expenditures nave
tripled. So great, indeed, have been the
aggregate expenditures OF the eight powers
that the real magnitude of the figures rep
resenting them Is almost beyond compre-
hension. For nearly seventy thousand mill
lions of dollars CS69, 100. 10000 have been re-
quired to foot the bills for armies, navies
and wars since 1856.
Some idea of the magnitude Of this sum
may be gained from the fact that It is
about six times the amount of the worlds
entire stock Of actual money-S11, 1896, 900, 900.
according to the last report of the Depart
ment OF Commerce and Labor-including
coin, silver and gold bullion, and secured
bank notes. II is also twice the entire ma
tional debts of the whole world ($35, 600, 00O.-
O00). But, astonishing as these figures may
be. they pale before the gigantic outlay
which will be required to continue the naval
and military programs for another forty
years At the average ratio for the last
1--WE years between ninsty-two and one hum
dred billions OF dollars will be expended by
America, England, France. Germany, Rus
STA, Austria, Italy and Japan In time OF
peace. In other words, these nations Will
pay for armies, navies and debts an amount
equal to the entire wealth of America-the
land and everything on It, from shoestrings
to skyBcrapers.

"a 10 sOUrHrRN SUppoRr.

That the visit Of President Roosevelt
to the south has had good effect on
popular sentiment In that section is very
plainly shown in the expressions OF the
leading southern papers. Without ex-
ception these representatives of public
opinion have in the most unqualified
terms commended the speeches of Mr..
Roosevelt and lauded the spirit which
characterized them. In some instances
the praise has been enthusiastic in its
nature, while in all cases II has been
marked by manifest earnestness and
sincerity.
This is highly gratifying, but how far
can 1t he depended upon to support the
policies for which the president is con-
tending? II is said that the president
has secured from the south at least, by
direct appeal to the people, a consid-
Grafton of his policies which the rep
resentatives of the south in congress
will beyond doubt heed and support.
That remains to be seen. Unquestiona-
bly, there is a great deal of sentiment in
the southern states favorable TO the de-
mand of the president for legislation to
regulate railway rates. Perhaps this
sentiment is predominant there and
there can be no doubt that It Is stronger
than before Mr.. Roosevelt's visit But
there is, on the other hand, a good deal
of opposition in that section to his policy
in regard to the railroads Senator
Morgan of Alabama is an outspoken
and apparently uncompromising oppon-
ent and he is not alone in that position
AS yet few of the southern senators and
representatives have indicated their
position and doubtless not many of them
will do so in advance of the meeting
Of congress, or before they are called
upon to act upon measure for carrying
out the presidents plan Of railway rate
regulation. Undeniably the south is as
deeply interested in this question as any
| other section of the country. 1t is alto
gether probable that the people of the
| south have suffered as much, relatively,
from railroad determinations and other
| abuses as any other part of the country.
| Complaints from that section to the
Interstate Commerce commission have
been numerous. But there is reason to
believe that the railroads exert quite as
much influence in that section as in the
north and west, and it is needless TO say
that they have not been idle I'm the mat
ter of creating popular sentiment there
! In behalf of their cause.
There is consequently uncertainty as
to where the southern senator's and rep
resentatives will be found when they
are called upon to act upon the question
Of railway rate regulation. No confident
prediction can be made in regard to the
position they will take. If they should
generally support the presidents recon-
mendations these would prevail. If two
| thirds of the southern senators were to
vote for the policy of railway rate regu-
latiOn advocated by Mr.. Roosevelt il
would win. The men who represent the
south in congress, especially the sena-
! tors from that section, have in this
matter a large responsibility. How they
will meet it is a question of very great
interest.

THE INDIANAPOLIS EXAMPLE.


The indianapolis Commercial club has
set an example which the Omaha Com
mercial club could emulate with credit
TO itself and profit to the commercial
interests Of Omaha. The indianapolis
Commercial club. like the Omaha Com
mercial club, has an executive commit
tee to act for the club in emergencies,
but the executive committee of the In
diaRapolis club does not assume the
responsibility for representing the SEN
timents Of the club without consulting
the members.
Ten days ago David M. Parry, who is
a member Of the executive committee
of the indianapolis Commercial club,
conceived the idea of calling upon bust
ness men Of the various cities not in
sympathy with President Roosevelt's
railway regulation plan to send dele
gates to the convention called by the
National Interstate Commerce Law
association for the specirc purpose of
endorsing President Roosevelts plan
and creating public sentiment in its
favor.
When Mr.. Parry presented his plan
for packing the convention against the
supporters of Roosevelt to the execu.
tive committee of the indianapolis Com
mercial club, with view to sending a
picked delegation of rebate and pass
men to Chicago TO break up the regular
convention, he met with unexpected re-
sistance from his colleagues. Instead
of complying with Mr.. Parry's request
and committing the club to the Parry
movement, the executive committee is
sued a call to all the members of the
club to convene and discuss the PROPOSE
ton.
The Indianapolis Commercial club hs S
membership of 1,2OO and more than
800 responded TO the call. After a full
and free discussion the Parry PROPOSE
ton was voted down by 10 to / and a
delegation of representative merchants
and manufacturers was appointed to at
tend the regular convention, with in
structions to endorse Roosevelt's rail-
way regulation policy.
Mr. Parry, of course, had no trouble
in finding congenial co-workers among
the beneficiarles of the railroads, but
the Commercial club of Indianapolis
washed its hands clean OF the disreputa-
BILE attempt to pack convention with
men opposed to the objects for which
1t was called.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Parry is reputed to
be the vice president of an Indiana rail-
road his failure to convince the mer'
chants and manufacturers Of Indianapo-
lis that it was to their interest to an
tagonize the presidents rate-making
plan is not in the least surprising. The
example of the Indianapolis club, how
ever. is worthy of emulation by all other
commercial bodies in this, that the ex'
ecutive committee, or board Of directors,
shall not be allowed to commit its mem
bership to a line of policy on any public
issue without first inviting n full and
free discussion by the rank and file of
its membership.
