"Stronqheart" Aqain On Tour,

"Strongheart," the college play Of
William c. DeMille, the young author
with so many metropolitan successes to
his credit in which Robert Edeson
appeared during the season Of 1906, is
to be again sent on tour, opening at
Atlantic City, n. j., on Labor Day,
and making a tour of the middle west
and New England states. "Strongheart"
is probably one of the most successful
college plays ever written, and when
Mr.. Edeson appeared in Classmates"
his last vehicle, the play was sent out
by Henry B. Harris with Ralph Stuart
as star. This tour, however, did not
cover any of the territory into which
"Strongheart' will now be seen, and
1t is because Of the many requests
fro mmanagers in this latter territory
that it has been decided to send the
play out for a single season Strong
heart will have an entirely new pro-
duction and will be offered by an ex-
cetionally fine conan, including sever
al of the original cast.

The Moral Aspect of the Drama.

There is no play worthy Of the name
that is not educational and instruct
i've in it's tendencies, that does not
abound in good and healthful inf1uen-
ces and that does not have, as it's ul-
innate object, the advancement of
truth and virtue, and the discontinue
and overthrow of falsehood and vice.
But then a play should amuse as we'll
as instruct, and be literally seasoned
with the salt and pepper of wit and
humor to give it zest and pungency.
Now no one possesses these two re-
quisite condiments in a more unstinted
measure than does that cute little re-
pository of fun known as "Chic" Per-
kins-nor is there anyone better versed
in the art of dispensing them in a jul
dicious manner. This merry little la
dy, supported by highly capable COM
pany. will appear in her new and
original play in four acts entitled "The
Little Prospector," story of mining
life in the far west, at the Keylor
Grand theater on August %.

NAVAL STRENGTH

According to a forecast made in a
publication of the German Naval
league, Japan in 1911 will rank third
among the naval powers of the world,
whereas not long ago four nations
could claim greater strength at sea.
Of late France has held the fourth
place, the United States the second.
and Germany has been close third.
In any Encouragement which may oc-
cur in the near future England win of
course remain at the head of the line,
and the most important changes will
relate to America, Germany and Japan.
Owing to the reticence of several
foreign governments concerning their
naval programs. it is more difficult

wrongs are attacked, but when the few
are favored at the expense of the
many. Permanent business success
and expansion depend on equality Of
opportunity, which, under the iniquit-
Gus practices of high finance methods,
was stifled. The honest remedy is not
ism by those whose selfish interests It
is to continue the republican party in
power, with undisturbed possession
of the privileges and perquisites of
office.
THE Denver platform is progressive
enough to conform to the spirit and
the necessities Of the time, while con-
sentative enough to guarantee the
conduct of national affairs on the lines
laid down by jefferson and Lincoln
To defeat the growing demand fol
progressive policies is only to foster
the growth OF socialism, already as
siduously sowing everywhere the seeds
of discomfort and disorder, and which
will find in the success of the repub-
lican party and the DISCRIMINATION OF
democracy it's best and only argument
for the support of theory OF govern
ment which would reduce mankind To
the dull and dreary level of despair
THE radicalism of today is the con-
servatism of next year. Democrats
and republicans must not be misled by
the subtle sophistries of selfish inter
est into antagonism of the Denver plat
form and it's candidate, else inside OF
a decade they may find themselves
faced with the consequences of the
struggle to prevent socialism followed
by anarchy.
In advocating the support of Bryan
The Traveller is not unmindful of the
deserved unpopularity and untrust-
worthiness of some of those in this
state who have been hitherto mos,
prominent in advocating his cause
The issue this year, however, is much
greater than men and democrats car
ally themselves with the national
leader irrespective Of the differences
and enmities of local and state poll
tics. On the republican side are tbs
selfish predatory interests; on botf
sides are the office seekers, the graspal
after cheap fame and the demagogut
thirsting for the cheers of the mob;
above all are principles, and every
democrat and liberty loving republi-
can who has the nations interests al
heart can this year loyalty work ant
