DzADwooD OPERA HOUSE
A Great Audience Attends on
Opening Night.

A reporter for the Union was
present at the opening Of the
new Opera House in Deadwood
Monday night when Harry
Creston Clarke proved to an in
telligent audience that he was
among the foremost actors of
the country. It is said that in
his rendition of this difficult role
of Beucaire that he appears to
better advantage than any other
role he has attempted. The
story of the play is too we'll
known to be of great interest
as Booth Tarkington's beauti-
full little story book has been,
read by almost every one. How
ever, those VINO expected, as
did the writer. that the play
would end as did the book, were
disappointed. Mr.. Harrington
evidently thought that the end
ling Of the book would not leave.
Iapleasant recollection so he ar
ranged that Beueaire and Lady
Mary should be married and
Give happy ever after. =
Too much praise can not be
1 given Deadwood for their ener-
81 and enthusiasm in building
the beautiful play house they
have just completed. Here one
is able1 Ito see people such as
Clarke, Blanch Walch and others
LOT equal high reputation in the
4 theatrical world. Such plays
are real bnefits; somthing can
be learned; something can be
tenjoyed that is imp ossible to get
lin other theaters Of the Black
q Hills. Such play houses can
be enjoyed by every city and we
venture tho assertion that there

At 3 o'clock Thursday morn
ing, Mr.. Jno. Gauldin, aged "a.

died. He had been in declining
health for some time, and was
much worse Tuesday, so the end
was not unexpected. The fune-
raj services were conducted in
Union at the city cemetery bv
Rev. l.. M. Rice, on Thursday
afternoon at 8 o'clock; the body
having been brought here for in
terment.
Mr.. Gauldin was a member of

Mary McFadden of that county,

1874. He had been a citizen of
lower Union from that time on,
and a worthy citizen withal.
His neighbor's good was his
good, and his friends trouble was
his also. He was honored and
loved by those who knew him
best.
Mrs. Gauldin and four daush-
ters survive him. They are:
Mrs. w. A. Beatty, until recently

Give free rein to your imagi-

future of a section which has
oae-half of the iron ore of the
United States, nearly three
times as much coal as Great
Britain, Germany, and Pennsyl-
vania combined, which holds a
world monopoly on cotton pro-
duction and is rapidly becoming
a great cotton manufacturing
center, which dominates the
phosphate rock and sulphur
trade of the world, which has
much of the richest oil territory
known, which has one-half of
the standing timber of the
country, which produces all the
sugar, all the rice, most of the
tobacco, and adds to these 8OO,-
600, 900 bushels year of grain
end then think of it's WATERPROOF
ers, it's splendid rivers, it's great
seacoast, it's expanding COM
merce, and remember that
it's cotton crop alone annually
exceeds the total gold and sill
yer production of the world, and
that every dollar of gold annual
ly mined on earth is not enough
to pay the South's bill against
Europe for cotton, and you will
get just a faint conception of the
future.

CHILD BITTEN BY DOG.
Little Herman Smith. Aged Eight
Years. Attacked by Dog Sup.
=. posed to be Mad.

Mr.. j. D. Smith, who lives
about 4 miles north of Union
came to town Wednesday with
his little boy Herman, who had
been bit that morning by a dog
supposed to be mad. Of course
at that time no symptoms of
hydrophobia had developed. but
he wished to take all caution to
prevent it. Mr.. Smith related
the following story:
s l was in the yard and noticed
TINS strange dog pass through,
edt paid no particular attention

wrong with him. It was a
strange dog, but l just supposed
ne belonged to neighbor. A
lttie later my son Herman, aged
eight years old, went out to the
buggy shed for something. He
saw the dog, lying down in the
back end of the shed, down be
tween the buggy shafts. Her
man yelled to the dog, trying to
scare him out; thereupon the
animal jumped up, ran toward
him and bit him fiercely on the
upper shin, the worst wound be-
ing on the outside of the left leg."
Mr.. Smith consulted several

William J. Bryan.

The way the country has come
to admire and applaud William
.. bryan, erstwhile democratic
candidate for the presidency, is a
hne illustration of the fickleness
OF popular opinion. He came
nome from an around-the-world
trip the other day, and received
IN New York an ovation almost
unparalleled in American history.
Inc ovation proceeds yet in Chi
cago, Kansas City, St. Louis and
elsewhere, and for the while
Bryan is printed in the news
papers. .ahortlft1so times where
the White House is once,
Ana yet, six years ago Bryan
was in practically all quarters
dubbed :loud-mouthed, impracti-
cable, visionary, socialistic, and
many other things besides, cal
culated to shake his standing
ing in the popular favor. So
persistently did this campaign of
depreciation pursue him, that
many of his best friends, made
timid by his defeat at the polls,
turned upon him. We have in
mind newspapers which did and
for no better reason than the
spirit of detraction which perme-
ated every nook and Granny
which could be reached by the
powerful arm of the press which
served plutocracy.
The years have passed and the
country has caught up with Mr..
Bryan. He has not changed but
the country has. The popular
Roosevelt has taken Bryan's
ideals and thereby added to his
popularity. Bryan is now con-
sidered conservative. He will
probably be the next democratic
candidate for the presidency.
We hope he may and that he
may win. The 16 to l question
is relegated to the garret, but
Bryan stands for the man as big
ger than the dollar, the welfare
of the people Of America as big
ger than that of the commercial
and business interest,"" which
Technology may the trusts in
vain strive the next time to be-
fuddle the people withal. .-Bap-
tist Press.

Some time ago President
Roosevelt invited Senator B. R.
Tillman to be one of the party to
view the naval parade at Oyster
Bay on Monday, Sept. 3rd. The
party, which was composed of
the naval commission was to
make the review from on board
the presidents yacht, the May
flower.
AS was expected Tillman de-
cllned the invitation, for the
President has never apologized
for Withdrawing Tillman's invi-
tation to the White House some
years ago on the occasion of
Prince Henry's visit. And this
condition for ever again speak
ing to Roosevelt was laid down
by Tillman. He stuck to his
word.

terest of humanity, the develop
ment of the home life and love
of family and the progress of the
human race, the eight-hour
working day should be univer-
sally adopted,
SoCIALIsM-Socialism presents
a consistent theory, but does not
take human nature into account.
1t would substitute a new dis
ease for the disease from which
which we suffer. Socialism
must be answered with argu-
ment not abuse.
NEXT IssUEs-The paramount
issue in next presidential CAM
paign will concern trusts and
their control. The Democratic
motto must be, "A private
monopoly is indefensible and in
tolerable." Provisions must be
made to imprison, not merely
fine, law breaking capitalists.
Some salient shots in the Com
moner's address were:
Trusts are a legallZed form
of larceny.
Reason rising higher than
force is one of the tests of civili-
cations progress.
Il do not believe in sacrificing
ninety-nine enterprises that one
may live.
Trusts are a political devel-
opment, not an economic one.
"Plutocracy is more despotic
than monarchy, more heartless
than aristocracy, more selfish
than bureaucracy. 1t preys
upon the nation in time of peace
and conspires against it in the
hours of it's calamity.
How can we draw moral
distinction between the man who
sells his vote for $500 on cleo
tien day and the manufacturer
who sells his political influence
for $50, 900 or 100000 payable
in dividends"

Mr.. Manning Hopeful.

In a conversation Tuesday
with a TINES reporter, Mr..
Manning, while he realizes the
opposition he must meet, ex-
pressed hope and even conf
dence in his election. He
will receive a large part of the
Blease vote, although Cole l..
Blease himself is unfavorable to
Mr.. Manning and even openly
opposes him. Further he thinks
he will receive the bulk of the
Sloan vote. He says he is much
stronger now in the Piedmont
than in the first Primary.
Mr.. Manning has been visiting
many parts of the state since the
18th and will continue to do SO
until the next primary. He was
in Spartanburg Monday and
expects to be in Union some
time this week.

Steamship Line Between Charleston
and Bremen, Germany

AS result of the efforts of
Commissioner E. j. Watson, of
Columbia, it is likely that a per-
manent steamship line will be
established between Bremen,
Germany and Charleston, S. c..
The permanence or non-perma-
of the line depends upon the
initial trip to be taken before
long. The purpose of the line is
to transport immigrants to this
state.
