ayers played it to a finish, however.
Here in Walla Walla there is no rea
son to believe the play is in it's ex-
purgated edition, a piece that will
drive the audience into the paths of
shame or mental degradation. Yet the
walls going up would indicate immoral
contagion for every one attending.
A sample of the view so premature
ly taken, is given in the following edi-
torial from the East Oregonian under
the Caption, Dramatic Indency" 1t
says:
Prosecuting attorneys Of Seattle and
Walla Walla have declared that Mrs.
Warren's Profession in which Rose
Coughlan is leading lady. shall not be
presented from the stage in either of
these cities, because of the indencies
and vulgar suggestions in the drama.
1T seems strange that the public
will patrOnize a thing which is recOg-
nized as being indecent All men and
women of mature years are more or
less familiar with the real immOrali-
ties of society which they resent. Why
should they wish to see q mimicry of
this immortality on the stage? In life
| they would shun the reality, ScOrn
| those at whom the finger of accusation
| is pointed. and yet really respectable
people tolerate the most ineXcusable
| suggestions on the stage.
There is neither wit. humor, elevat-
| ing tendency nor genuine amusement
| in indencency. People will listen to
| silly rot from the stage, at which they
| would be insulted on the street or
| in their homes.
1T is disgusting to think that it is
necessary for the authorities to prevent
the production of an indecent play.
There should be sufficient condemna-
| ton in the healthful public sentiment
of the country to put such plays out of
| business"
