much discussion as "Mrs Warren's
Profession" and the intelligent world
Is well agreed that II Is the greatest
drama that Bernard Shaw has ever

career Of a prostitute and procuress
as better than being crushed and
brutalized by the modern economic

OF sheer hard truth Is over IL and in 1t

Augustus Thomas, thinks that "Mrs.
Warren's Profession" is the most
vigorous and vital thing that Shaw
has ever done. Professor William
Lyon Phelps, who very ably occupies a
chair OF drama and literature at Yale,
thinks that II Is not only good play,
but one that teaches Il much needed
moral lesson. Mr. Norman Hapgood,

years Joe was ever perfect In de-
pertinent when not under the influ-

at the penitentiary and was released
on parole after serving but three
years, In Indiana a parole is good as
long as the prisoner conducts himself
properly. Lester got married, acted
like a gentleman and was thought

There are several points The RE.
PUBLICAN would bring to mind at this
time. The first Is the placing Of
the chair manship OF the Board Of
Com missioners out In the county. 1t

proved, that II is very advisable to
have the Craftsmanship located In
Logan, the center Of the county,
where at critical times the chairman
may be reached easily. Politics land.
ed the craftsmanship elsewhere this
year: This Is a condition the public
ought not to stand for In the future
The second point is In reference to
the Recorders office. 1t is often stated
that this Office should be In the hands
Of q man and one with some know.
ledge of surveying, II possible. II this
assumption is correct, and we are In.
clined to that belief, the disposition
OF both parties to put woman there
should be overcome.
Thirdly, the disposition OF the
county people to make 1t impossible
to nominate Logan man for Assessor
should be overcome by both parties.
The best man for Assessor, regardless
OF his residence, should be nominated
by EACH party. This is but Justice,
but fairness, and the parties should
have the stamina to give themselves
and the public q square deal here.
There are other inequalities that
will be touched upon later. The voters
are urged to think about these things,
Those who have long noted the
mistakes made, yet remained inactive
are urged to action. Grumbling Ia
