LAWYER FOR SOCIALISTS
TALKS ON FREE SPEECH
Job Hartman Addresses Crowded
Meeting at Burbank Hall-Plans
for Further Agitation Are
Announced

Job Hartman, counsel for the de-
tense in the cases of Socialists arrested
for speaking on the street without a
permit in writing from the board of
police commissioners, delivered an adj
dress last night in Burbank hall on the
subject of Free Speech"
Long before the hour announced
there was only standing room in the
hall. which holds 300.
The speaker was introduced by w.
G. Henry, one of the sufferers under
the ordinance. Mr.. Henry spent three
weeks in Jail awaiting trial before be-
ing released on account of a failure to
secure a. jury.
Mr.. Hartman came slowly to the
specific question of free speech, first
going deeply into the development of
special privileges and the causes for a
denial of rights.
This development has continued
from time when nearly everybody
had some property till now there are
but a few that have any," he de-
clared. Free speech is denied because,
in this day, the powerful ones of the
earth feel that free speech would en-
danger the palaces of the rich and the
Golfers of the robbers.
but we must not deceive ourselves
with the belief that it is conscious i'm
morality we are attacking in resist
ing a discriminating restriction of the
rights of free speech. The beneficiaries
of special privileges. as a rule, are
quite sincere in their belief that the
protection of those privileges, by any
means, is altogether moral. They have
no feeling that they are doing wrong
in allowing free speech privileges to
political or religious organization, that
strengthen instead of menacing their
position, and denying all privileges to
any persons who seek to preach the
appropriation of the eXploiters.
Even the mothers of the rich, as a
rule, have no feeling of guilt at the
knowledge that their wealth comes
from the killing toll of little children In
the factories. They have no sense of
blame in doing anything which protects
them in their privilege.
"But alas! alasl for the day when
the privileges of free speech and a
free press are at an end"
After the main address came de-
scription of the plans of the free speech
agitators, which are to add twenty
five men and women tonight to the
number already in jail for the exer-
else of what they declare to be their
constitutional rights. A meeting was
announced for Main street, between
Seventh and Eighth, at o'clock.

THE CAST
BY sIDLE LAWRENCE

kkN AYEST MANHATTAN" de-
lT scribed on the programs as a
VI Manhattan cocktail in two sips,
is the attraction at the Grand this
week. The show opened yesterday af-
ternoon and despite the recent activity
of the police commission in enforcing
the Sunday closing law no arrests were
made. Perhaps stage cocktails don
&C int, but this is a particularly lively
cocktail, with it's proper ingredients
well compounded. And Miss Elsie
Schuyler is the cherry in the bottom OF
the glass.
In musical comedy, travesty, ex-
travaganza or burlesque, as the house
management may elect to call it, a
title, like kissing, goes by favor. Thus
we had THE Founders last week, no
more like the original show presented
under that name than it was like
"Evangeline"; and this week we have
"Gayest Manhattan" a day-after-to-
morrow contribution to stage litera-
ture, bearing the Greater New York
imprint, and presenting only a vague
family resemblance to the "Gayest
Manhattan" originally produced at
Roster & Balls a dozen years ago. If
the one is a Manhattan cocktail GER
tainly the other could have been moth
ing more stimulating than soda pop,
though it was regarded as lively enough
at the time.

Many Musical Numbers

! There are twenty-five musical num-
bers in the piece, and most of them
are new. One of them, Needles and
Pins" is a curious and catchy compo-
sition which requires a careful hearing
| for it's properappreciation The Moth
er Goose rhyme has been parodied to
good effect and the melody presents
| first a strain of Chopins funeral
match, then a bit of the Mendelssohn
wedding march, and concludes with a
few bars from waiting at the
Church." all of which is remarkably
apropos.
Perhaps the best number on the pro-
gram is doll speciality by Elise Schuy-
Ter. The same thing has been done
here before, but never so we'll as Miss
1 Schuyler does it. She initiates the
jerky motion and the curious utterance
of a mechanical doll with precision and
her awkwardness is beyond descrip-
ton.
Miss Edna Sidney has a telephone
duet. the man in the case with his
phone occupying a seat in the audience.
The thing is we'll done and 1t made a
pronounced hit with yesterday after
Moons audience. Miss Libby Blondell
contributes when the Moon Makes
Goo-Goo Eyes" That's Why I Never
Married" and the bathing girl song,
No one really paid any attention to
this last number, being too much oc-
cupied with the shadowgraphs, but
Judging from the others / should say
it deserved a better fate.
Aubrey Carr sings pride of the
Prairie,' which is good, though some
what hackneyed; MANDY Lee" and is
heard also in a duet with Miss Sidney
and trio with Miss Sidney and Harry
Wardell. There are many other num-
bers, and in most of them the chorus
does it's full share, lending a pictur-
esdue quality to the whole.
The costunling is excellent, though
the show girls really should be given
at least one change in two-act per-
Torrance.
In brief, "Gayest Manhattan" is a
lively, not to say frisky, girl show. 1t
is not designed for presentation before
Young ladies' boarding school class,
and among all the hosiery display there
is not a blue stocking In the lot.
Changes of bill are announced begin
ming with matinee performances this
afternoon at the Orpheum, Empire
Fischer's and Unique theaters. At the
Unique the tabloid opera for the weei
is princess Bonnie," or IAN American
Princess" as Director Frederick has

STAGE Gay with Girls

Designed for summer entertainment.
"Gayest Manhattan" hasn't a serious
moment or serious thought anywhere
about it. During much of the time the
stage is gay with girls in fetching cos
The show is a take-off on manners and
modes, particularly the latter. Its
loftiest aim is frivolity; its nearest ap-
proach to dramatic sanity, a good day S
journey in a forty-hourse power ma
chine. If you like that sort of thing
"Gayest Manhattan will please you
immensely. If you don't like it you
had best take yourself and your shek-
els to some other show shop.
Prudery and Manhattan cocktails,
even in stage form, do not mix readily,
and there is nothing of prudery in this
entertainment. In fact, there is one
scene which doubtless will occasion
comment even if it escapes condemna-
ton. Four girls come upon the stage
and announce their intention to go in
bathing. They enter bath houses and
behind curtained doorways disrobe for
their pluge. The stage is in darkness
save for the light shining through
those curtains. The result is quartet
disrobing act, presented in amazing
shadowgraph, the girls finally making
their appearance in the costume or
dinarily depicted upon those postal
cards mailed from abroad and which
are labeled Bathing Scene at Trou-
Vile" The idea is new IN Los Angeles,
and it is certainly startling enough to
make taik-which, I should conjecture,
is the reason for its being.

melodies played by the Hawaiian band
as they sat upon the pier gazing into
the moonlit surf.
Miss Deaton is one of the Montana
sextet of young ladies who were
awarded trip to Japan and return as
result of a. newspaper contest. She
was the especial favorite of the Argus

test of the six girls. Mr. Bagnall is
very young man. whose family re-
sides in Yokohama. His mother visited
here last year.
