'The Clansman' met with a just rebuke
In Philadelphia. Its suppression there was
rather a chastisement OF the impudeace dis
played by its management than defense
OF taste and morals. Had there been no
effort 10 play upon the prejudices excited
BY the piece. for purposes of advertisement,
there might have been no definite action by
the authorities. There is a constant ten
dency 10 deal with matters of current pub
licity or national concern in theatrical en-
tertaiument Such tendency might be
wholesome II the promoters of such enter
tainment were more closely In touch with
the interests which they assume to handle.
The introduction of a caricature of John D..
Rockefeller In the Vanderbilt Cup was
a bit of crude audacity which fourishes
only because its subject does not choose to
resent IL; If the satire were keen enough
to be effective ii would be prohibited. The
experience of The Clansman" is significant
In that 1t shows the enormous latent power
In the stage as a practical influence on
current thought. The Clansman" was but a
clumsy and erroneous appeal; yet by sheer
vigor it compelled attention, and, IL is sadly
TO be feared, produced events. more sys-
tematic development of this aspect OF the
atric efficiency Is presaged In many ways
Americans are ready TO listen to stories OF
themselves and the current interest play
IS among the possibilities of the near flu
,ure The lack of managerial knowledge
OF and serious interest IN topics which con-
Germ the voting masses are all that have
prevented any attempt in this direction

KAYANAUGH HEARS
 DURRETT IS FIRED
HEAD OF SOUTHERN LEAGUE IS ADVISED THAT THE MoNTGoM- FRY TEAM NOW HAS A NEW MANAGER.

Little Rock. April -(speeial)-Presi- dent Kavanaugh of the Southern Baseball league tonight stated that he had been advised by wire of the release of Ike Durrett as manager of the Montgomery team and the appointment of Mullaney as his successor, but further than this ad- vice had no knowledge of the eircum- stances surrounding the release.
 It is thought here that the release came as the result of Durrett's tactics during the Birmingham series. Unofficial ad vice to President Kavanaugh from Mont gomery was to the effect that the stock holders endorsed the action of Durrett in leaving the field at Birmingham Sat urday, but this was denied in a telegram received by President Kavanaugh from President Amerine of the Montgomery club yesterday.

 First Baseman Mullaney of the Mont gomery team might well be called re- formed ball player.
 According to his own statement and judging from his conduct in the series just finished. Mullaney has discarded his temper and dirty tactics Il will be re- membered that Mullaney made his first appearance in the Southern league in Birmingham uniform. and that not many days after he was given pink slip of paper of the a2sa style. for hitting an umpire with his bat.
 Mullaney used to have a temper and the sad part of 1t was that he could not control It. Kicking doesn't pay said the big first baseman in the last series here. "I believe a player will get along much better if he abides by the umpire g decisions"
 Mullaney was very jolly in the games here last week, and despite the occur rences of Thursday and Saturday, wore a smile on his face through all the de- feats. He is a good ball player and when he tries can play as fast a game as any in the league. It might be well for Dur rett to take few pointers from Null laney's conduct.

The above will be welcome news to the Birmingham fans who witnessed the rep rehenslbls performances of Durrett in this city.
 Nothing but condemnation has been heard around the circuit for Durrett. In the Montgomery papers there is slightly concealed tendency to defend him. It is learned, however that the conduct of Manager Durrett has not met with the approval of the Montgomery fans, and President Amerine's action, if it's pur- pose is not misunderstood, will be gem erally applauded.
 The dispatch is construed to mean that Durrett has lost out, temporarily at any rate. Mullaney should be competent to manage the team and the fans believe that he will at least be an improvement ever Durrett.

IT IS NOT INsP RING

The spectacle presented in the United States senate the other day when dem ocratic senators at the beheSt of par ty caucus attempted to whip Senator Patterson in line and compel him to vote on a measure in opposition to his conscience and to his duty, as he saw it, was not au inspiring one. It Is not one that will encourage those, who are endeavoring to establish higher ideals of citizenship, who are trying to incul- cate the idea that private and public citizens owe their first duty to right and truth rather than party, to leave the triumphant republican party and and seek their ends through the dem ocratic party.
 There is an old saying that iustifes the policy of fighting fire with fire, but 1t Is one that is always used as an apol- ogy for wrong. It was pointed out by the able Senator Bailey that the ques- tion at issue the other day, the San Domingo treaty, could not command the support of republican senators eX' ceps by the application of the party lash. He said the only way that the true sentiment of the senate, which is agaiast.the treaty, can be recorded is to force the democrats to vote against it as a party, and thus defeat it. With out probing the statement to ascertain whether true or not, it might be said that never yet have two wrongs made righ-.
