And the audience at the Columbia
Theater saw the other side last night:
saw 1t as vividly as a company en-
couraged to it's best efforts by an al
most unbroken tumult of applause
could present it; saw a blend OF THE
Clansman" and The Iseopard's Spots
cheered and hissed as no melodrama
in the legitimate home If melodrama
has been cheered and hissed In the
recollection of the pres ent generation
saw men and women In evening dress
turn in their orchestra chairs to hiss
very feeble applause from isolated
spots in the gallery. Possibly Il Is a
great Interrogation and rrobaSiy IL
does present a problem for the Anglo
Saxon race-but should "the prophecy
occupy the boards? Is Uncle Toms
Cabin" an excuse for THE Clans
man?"
Dixon thanked last nights audience
for their reception of his play and
told them they were duplicating the
verdict of every audience that has seen
The CIansman." He said that his un-
favorable criticisms were from the
press and not the public. and that the
newspaper critics who assailed the play
assailed the judgement of the audi
ence.
1t is impracticable TO Judge the play
from a dramatic standpoint. Its crudi-
ties are not even noticed by the peo-
pie who applaud IL. and IL would make
no difference to such an enthusiastic
house as that OF last night were the
crudities ten times more glaring.
Neither can THE C1ansman" be con-
temptuously dismissed as an ordinary
me1odrama appealing to cheap senu-
ment.
Crude as il is. ii still presents dra-
matte climaxes with a lightning rapid
ity and rugged force that partly ex-
plains why erstWhile dignified men and
women go wild with excitement. But
only partly. For its author cannot deny
that the theme on which IL Is Duilt Us
the most potent factor IN the play sue
cess. One might admit that a poorer
play based on the same theme would not
electrify audiences North and South as
has The CIansman." but surely no one
viii deny without the dennite soctai IA
problem that confronts the country th9
box office receipts would not be sWeii-
ed BY the crowds that flock to the Dixon
play. The CIansman" IS daring ap-
peal to passion which is, to say the least
exceedingly dangerous. It may accom-
plish some good, but 1t Is stili more sue
TO perform a definite harm. DlXon pro
tests against criticisms that depart rom
the play itself. but how can the play
be separated from the theme?
The cast was better than criticisms
from other cities would cause one TO
expect Joseph Wheeiock' sr:; as Dr'
Cameron; Georgia Welles, as the hero
inc, Mrs Charles c. Craig. as Eva,
Nelse's wife, and Dewitt c. Jennings, as
Neise won enthusiastic applause Syd-
ney Ayres, as the Clansnan, wen eve.
more applause, but it was frequently his
lines that aroused enthusiasm. Nsver-
theleSs, he put considerable JusisIHen
into his work, and notwithstaa ling its
r1elodramatic trend IL was usually con-
vfncfng and always fiery.

To THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF
MICHIGAN:
A calamity, appalling in it's magni-
tude and in the suffering il has caus-
ed. has befallen the people of the
State Of California. They have Le-
ceived assurances Of sympathy from
every country OF the civilized world.
The people of the United States are
called upon TO do more than send
sympathy, and the opportunity is pre-
Michigan to prove that we are respon-
sive To the call for aid from stricken
sister state. 1t is Il time when IL
should be remembered that "he gives
twice who gives quickly" The CO
operation Of mayors OF cities, presi.
dents of villages and other officials is
asked in getting this matter before
the people by calling public meetings
or by taking such steps rs they may
deem best adopted TO bring about the
result which it is our plain duty TO
accomplish. The aid OF churches,
fraternal societies and other OrganiZa.
tions, is requested, and the good work
that can be done now by the press
cannot be Over-estimated.
Every contribution. large or small,
sent to me for the relief of the suffer
ers IN California will be at once
acknowledged and transmitted to the
proper authorities.
Given under my hand and the Great
Seal of the State Of Michigan, at Latl-
sing. this twentieth day Of April, in
