ADJUSTMENTS
Eyceum-"Ranson's r oIIy."

Full of rollckinge fun, telling a pretty
love tale gracefully and having plot;
which does not untangle until just before
the final curtain, 'Ranson's Folly" by
Richard Harding Davis, is q play always
entertaining AS presented by the Fraw-
leys at the Lyceum this week, 1t is welr
worth seeing, despite the fact that i'm
perfect work on the part of few MEM
bers of the cast mars some scenes. The
defects are not serious and are doubtless
due to the added Tuesday matinee, which
cuts into the time which might be de-
voted to rehearsal. ~. - IL. /:
Whatever the defects Of the presenta-
ton, they are more than covered up
by the work of T. Daniel Frawley as
Lieutenant Ransom, and Miss Consuelo
Bailey as Mary Cahill. In the title role
Mr.. Frawley is presented to the Lyceum
audience in a. new light. Ransom is the
son OF rich senator, who has entered
| the regular army after serving in Cuba,
China and the Philippines as a volun-
teer. Finding the life Of a. frontier post
dull, he seeks to break the monotony by
assuming the disguise Of the Red Rider,
notorious bandit, and holding up a
stage with a pair of scissors Two 9TH
ers are abroad in the same disguise and
the government paymaster Is held up and
shot the same night, which leads to com :
phcatfens threatening the .hero's life and
liberty. To this part Mr.: Frawley. brings

The anxiety of these bosses to control
the judiciary is perfectly plain. The
other day in the court Of general SEES
sions, in tho court of Judge Mayo; q
| man was brought in charged with muir
der. He had been, held by another
judge and when he came before Mayo
the Judge was astounded to find that the
suspect had been admitted to bail. It
/, soon transpired how that had happened
for within few minutes "Murphy's
man" arrived at Judge Mayo s door.
He brought message from Murphy
saying that he very much wanted
the suspect discharged since there was
no evidence against him. Judge Mayo
replied that he would discharge any
man against whom there was no evil
dence, but declared that the case must
ltake it's regular course. The agent took
the answer back and Murphy sent this
supplementary message to the Judge:
"You have done just what I thought
you would and want you to under
stand that YOU need expect no favors
from the organization hereafter
Judge Mayo was Tamnany nomi-
nee, and this was a notification from the
boss that his, judicial career was at an
end because he had refused to prosti-
tute his Office to the extent Of turn
ing loose without hearing man &C

sought to regulate freight rates, it was
done mainly by comparison with Iowa

ever made valuation Of railroad prop

advocating his amendment, from Presi-
ident Roosevelt down, are branl{edSsas
traitors, false to their trust. .3sS
Mr.. STEVENSON disposed Of another
La Toilette amendment very briefly. It
was drawn TO disqualify judges who
held stock in any railroad company, or
who carried passes on the road; from
sitting in cases against the company.
This is entirely superfuous, because
Judges are already barred by the gen
eral law. from sitting in cases. affecting
roads in: which they hold stock. AS to
passes, the bill already contained an
anti-pass section. Judges carrying
passes would be liable to impeachment
for violating the law, and it would be a
queer anti-climax to prohibit them from
sitting on cases against roads which
gave them passes. They should be i'm.
peached rather than barred. This
amendment comes dangerously near the
line of buncombe.

senator from Wisconsin should Gao.

least that the question of the necessity
or advisability Of his amendments is

minds may differ.' That is not his
disposition, however. He is going into

refused to grab his leading strings, and
telling the people that by refusing tc
pass his amendments, they gave the
country worthless rate law. Every
body's wrong but La Toilette.
