The hold the true German come
dian has upon the public is not diff
ficult of explanation. There is a
spontaneity about his humor, a MINI
bleness about his wit, bubbling
good nature through everything he
does, that is simply infectious. The
audience catches it, aud then it is
rolled over and over with merri-
ment of this type of happy comedy.
By far the best exponents on the
American stage today are the fam
GUS German comedians, Dixon and
Fields. who have won the place
they occupy by hard work in giving
the public what 1t wants. They are
particularly fortunate In having an
exceedingly strong play. The pres
eut season these able comedians are
appearing in brand new musical
gaiety, Hans an Nix" which has
an exceedingly interesting story at
tached and would make a most sat
isfactory performance without the
aid of single speciality, but Dixon
and Fields introduce number OF
their own hilarious special acts,
and every member of the company
contributes some special feature.
The cast is one of much merit. This
company will be at Temple Theatre

RAILROAD RATES

instance:
Flour, fish, canned goods, pota-
toes, tomatoes, melons, fruits, cab
bage, onions, beans, butter, sugar,
salt, ice, drugs, crockery, soap, beer,

machinery, implements, vehicles,
paint, leather, hides, cement, brick
wire, shingles, lumber, fertilizer,
furniture, tanbark, piling, cross
ties, telegraph poles, and many
other articles.
Now, advocates OF rate legisla-
ton, in their appeal for popular
sympathy, argue that it is not the
shipper, or the consignee, who is
the direct sufferer by reason of ex-
cessive rates, but that it is the con-
sumner, and that the relief of the
consumer is the end for which they
strive.
We have seen the disastrous eff
fects TO railroad security holders of
reduction in the rates OF only
cent per 100 pounds. Does any
sensible peason believe that the
consumer could purchase the ar
ticles consumed at a less price by
reason of such a reduction, which
means to the shipper, or to the
consignee, but cents per barrel on
flour, "a cent on a case of canned
goods, 2 cents on case of clothing,
or cents on a suit of furniture?
Certainly not; nor would propo-
sition of cent reduction in rates
be acceptable to him, If such a
proposition should be made. He
would demand a greater, one that
would bring relief to him, to the
consumer. And who is the con-
sumner? Is not everyone of the 3D.
305, 2SS indirect security holders
mentioned above consumer? And
should he secure a reduction in
rates tor relief as a customer, of
even l cent per 100 pound, which as
shown. does not relieve, there is no
citing around the fact that he very
seriously Impairs the stability of
the institutions to which are M
trusted his savings, his property,
and his family's future welfare.

Q1 tober 26th asking him to
spn cify what towns in Hopkins

the county in connection with
the smallpox epidemics in the
past, as seemed clearly the in

from the editorial utterance OF
the Judge to which THE BEE
called attention first on October
26th, some days before the cleo

Givens' pen was published by
THE BEE at that time has, been
published once since in these
columns and is now again pub
lished, all in order that mis-
quotation or misapplication may
not rightfully be charged against
The BEE. The paragraph, about
which The Judge says The BEE
is entirely mistaken, reads as
follows:
but next year the county will be
entirely out of debt, and on cash
basis, and there will be plenty of
funds available for road work, that
is, unless smallpox breaks out
among the republicans of certain

The BEE called the Judges
attention on October 26 to the
wrong impression his utterance
was creating and asked him to
specify what towns had been a
burden to the county in smallpox
epidemlcs. If he did not mean
that darlington or any mining
town of Hopkins county should
suffer In the eyes of the readers
of the Madisonville Hustler
through the hurtful impression
they were getting from this in
sinuating editorial utterance, he
had some days and several issues
of. the Madisonville Hustler in
which to do the "square" thing
and explain away this hurtful
impression that was finding lodg-
'ment prior to election in the
minds of partisans inflamed by a
political campaign.
But he didn't, and, as The BEE
later prophesied would be, the
Judge attempted DO sort of ex-
cuse or explanation until after
the election had passed and the
minds of partisans needed, for
the present, no further inflam-
ing.
Now that the Judge finally re-
allies he must say something, he
declares that THE BEE is all
wrong and that the Hustler did
not mean anything derogatory.
And he admonishes that THE
BEE should cease trying to work
up prejudice between Darlington
o,d Mod;sOnvilla };
Truth to say, THE BEE has
been raising a little sand with
Judge Bud Givens. And THE
BEE, together with many citi-
zens, have understood that Judge
Bud considered himself Hopkins
County; but The BEE had not,
until now it finds from his own
veritable lips, that Judge Bud is
also the City of jacksonville.
