CRYING NEED.

Nowadays a physician, a den
fist, a lawyer or a barber must
before he enters upon his
practice go before a state
board Of examiners. This is to
prevent unskillful and ignorant
charlatans from preying on the
public. 1t iSa wise requirement
and prevents much worry, rob
berry and sickness. Now why
would it not be great advance
to have a similar examining
board for those who feel called
into the theatrical profession and
are consumed with a desire to
practice it?
Agreat deal of woe, miseryand
bitterness is caused bv stupid,
u~nlattered actors and actresses
with neither Intelligence nor tai
ent who arrogantly display their
inefiiciency before audiences
which have been misled by the
glowing promises in the advertise
ments. If all histrionic aspirants
were compelled to go before a
competent board Of examiners
before exhibiting their abilities
in public, we should at least be
rid of the leading lady who gives a
nasal twang to her RS" the
cluB-footed and antiquated SOU
brette and the juvenile who says
II have cAme for ny aaaaSwef.'

4th. That in the selection Of
w. S. Cowherd as its standard
bearer, we believe that the rents
made in the party will be more
effectively healed than by the
selection of any other man, while
at the same time his democracy
is pure and unde6led-of that
type which cannot be bribed to
sacrifice principle for success as
an Office seeker or to obtain
official favor as the seryile tool of
a corrupt master. The Demo
cratic candidate for Governor Of

should be like Caesars wife,

believe our candidate to be.

SYSTEM.

According to reliable accounts
the following narrative is true.
In September, 1902, a railroad
employee in Michigan had both
legs mangled while coupling
cars. In February of the next
year his attorneys commenced
sui. for damages.
The case was tried in October,
a little over a year after the in
Jury. The iuryawarded fifteen
thousand dollars damages. The
railroad appealed to the Supreme
Caurt, which tribunal, in March,
1904, remanded the case for new
trial. This new trial was had in
February, 1905, and the Jury
gave a verdict of twenty thou
sand dollars. Again the railroad
appealed to the Supreme Court,
which in May, 1906, again order
ed a new trial. But on rehear-
ing the Supreme Court changed
it's mind and affirmed the iudg-
ment of the lower court. Mean
while, the railroad had been re.
organized. So, in January, 1907.
it was necessary to begin suit
against its bondsmen to collect
the Judgment. In April, 1907
the trial Jury gave iudgmen.
against the bondsmen, and tn,
defendants promptly appealed t,

Five years and one month afte
