BEN GREET's PLAYS.
Successful Performances in Ideal Sur
roundings.

Successful Performances in Ideal Sur
roundings
Ideal conditions prevailed last night
for the last Of the two outdoor Shake
spearean performances by the Ben
Greet company The play was "The
Tempest" that most fanciful creation
of the master dramatist, considered by
some authorities to be the completing
companion-piece to THE Winters
Tale" and the midsummer Nights
Dream" The stage was set In the
grounds of the New Haven Lawn club.
with somber evergreens for a back
ground. The pole Of a great white
spruce, with its spreading branches
above, formed a kind of natural pros
cenium arch. Footlights there were
none, but a magician with a simple
calcium light and few stained glass
slides worked some wonderful color
effects on the foliage. The night was
so comfortably warm that not even the
tenderest could complain, particularly
If they happened to have been present
at the first open air performance of
lAU Collipduy here AL lJUo, Wflen winter
overcoats and arctics were none too
warm. Nature conspired to give the
spectators her very best, and towards
the end of the play contured up a few
flashes of real lightning and an occa-
sional thunder growl in the west to
help emphasize the lines Of the actors,
ana give the make-believe on the stage
an appearance of reality.
The play was well given and was
followed with the closest attention and
sympathy 10y the spectators on whom
the charm of their surroundings had
fallen. Mr.. Greet's company is hardly
up to that which he first brought to
New Haven. Miss Mattheson has gone
and there is no one to replace her. Last
evening Miranda was played by Miss
Camille Reynolds, who made the part
a sweet one. Mr.. Greet was the Cali
ban; Mr.. Fritz Lieber, the Prospero,
and Mr.. Dallas Anderson the Ferdinand
of the play. All were excellent. Mr..
Thorndike portrayed the drunken
Francisco, and gave him a most real
istic hiccough. All the comedy between
Francisco, Frinculo and Cali5an was
well done.

CHARGES WEAKNESS
AGAINST PRESIDENT
Continued from Second Page.)

Continued from Second Page.)
"And 50, Mr.. Stone proceeded, the
Macedonian cry comes over from the
White House to congress. This joint
resolution is the response congress
makes to that appeal Hereafter when
the president goes on buying trust MAJ
terials at trust prices, as he has been
doing and will continue to do, whether
this resolution should be adopted or
not, he can excuse himself ON the
ground that congress has established a
rule for his guidance. He can shelter
himself under this resolution and UNI
load his sins on congress. This is about
the only possible use to which this reso-
luton can be put,
THE very thing the president in the
first instance declared his intention to
do was to go abroad only in the event
the manufacturers and ship owners of
the United States sought to extort I'M
reasonable prices. That was all any
body could expect or desire him to do.
He needs no congressional authority to
carry out that policy. And this reso-
luton, if adopted, will not clothe him
with any power he cannot exercise al
ready.
This resolution merely crowns the
triumph of the trusts over the presi-
dent"
He closed with the assertion that the
resolution proposed to give the presi-
dent a club he will never use. 1T is
one Of those big sticks that will lie
idle in his hands"
Senator Hale interrupted with the OBJ
serYation chat all countries whether OF
protective or free trade proclivities,
employ their own labor and their own
articles of manufacture in all public
works. mo government that pays the
bills prefers the labor or the products
Of any other country" he said.
The Missouri senator replied that all
things being equal, he, too, would IA
vor home products, but when, as In
the case with the steel trust, a home
! concern has one price for home and an
other for foreign markets." he thought
the treasury ought to be protected
against being plundered. Senator AL
drich declared this to be the very pur-
pose of the pending resolution.
When Senator Stone concluded SEN
ator Foraker read from the testimony
of Mr.. Shonts before the interoceanic
canal committee, showing that the two
Ward line ships had been built at a
time when material and labor were
cheaper, and that they had subsequent
ly been so strengthened as to materi-
ally improve them and really make
them a bargain at the price paid SEN
ator Carmack suggested am amend
ment to the resolution providing that
preferment shall be given to articles OF
domestic manufacture when they can
be secured as cheaply as others and
spoke In support of the amendment,
holding it to be in line with existing
laws.
The resolution was still under con-
sideration when the senate went into
executive session.

THE HEART OF THE CAMPAIGN.

Booster seeks to conceal the fran
chise question. When dragged
out they scream Rawalt Bruce
ct al, and again seek, cutie fish
like, to cloud the issue.
Regarding the matter of Mr..
divers candidacy for the clerk
ship we have little to say, He is
very small potatoes and exceed
ingly few in the hill. We said
that he tried to secure Hawkins
withdrawal because we do not be-
lieve that Randolph Williamson
made the overture to Mr.. Hawk
ms without divers request. We
said the desire was to secure
his withdrawal from both tickets
because his getting off one would
have done no good. The only
way Clint could be elected city
clerk would be to have an open
field and no one running against
him.
In another column we deal with
the lighting question and by some
more of Mr. divers figures and
published statements prove that
he is as unreliable on this ques
ton as he was on the water works
problem.

THE Booster in its estimate of
expenses drumming Mr.. Beezley's
electric light plant sets $40. per
month into a sinking fund to buy
a new plant at the end of ten
years. That amounts to 81 ,44O in
three years, the present age of the
plant and reduces its invoice
value from $500 as taken from
the bills not long ago to S3,S6O.

bid too high when they fixed on
$4,700 as fair price.

Booster tells considerable that it
does not know in its last issue.
One of the first things they say is
as follows:
at is evident on the face of
things that he proposed issue of
bonds, namely $4,000, is en-
tirely insufficient for the pur-
chase or as the case might be.
buy new plant"
The invoice price of the Beez-
ley plant, which the owner and
his friends certify is plenty good
enough tor US, is $1,000. Do you
think it would quite bust the
town to raise the other six hun
dred? And if it would be SO
tough proposition was it not
pretty hard on the present board
to find the treasury drained dry
and several thousand dollars in
warrants drawn ahead on pro-
spective revenues, when your
last board went out? Get the
beautiful harmony of these
thoughts in your head and you
will not write such silly trash to
get votes with.
Their next spasm of intelli-
gence reads like this:
"By keeping the water rents up
the council are able to reduce the
taxes 8 mills. This is material
reduction isn't it2"
II you would take the trouble
to inform yourself you would
know that the reduction is made
on general revenue and does no,
in any way effect the water funds
This council have reduced the
running expenses of the city or
general purposes. property has
increased on the town site and a
reduced levy was easily secured
The water rates are kept up te

TOUCHING the matter of Gunni

TOUCHING the matter of Gunni-
son city granting a franchise so
glibly mentioned in last weeks
Booster, it like many other things
that appears in that sheet is
partly truth and wholly lie.
Gunnison is granting franchise
to get around the constitutional
Limitation. The grantee will OPP
crate the plant virtually for the
city, will take interest and oper-
ating expenses for his work and
apply all surplus revenues to the
payment for the plant. At any
time that the city is able to pay
off the balance it will become
sole owner of the plant. Under
the same sort of a deal the
present. plant could be purchased
here, today and the check would
only barely reach four figures.
The newspaper., 1906-03-30

In table that purports to give
the receipts and expenditures of
the present electric light plant,
the Booster makes the owner
come out S23 a month in the hole.

hasten to work the city into TAX
ing this white elephant off his
hands.

est man on the townsite this week.
He is using his most strenuous eff
forts for franchise and it looks as

selves in which way. Mr.. Clark
is capitalist but not tax payer

is he voter.

PEOPLE who kick on FIVE cents
a day for mountain water ought
to have to drink ditch water like
some of us did three years ago.
Still, some of these people want

worth $4,000. Be it remembered,
however, that they expect to be
in as benehciaries.
