The Theaters

MANAGER MOROSCO has decided
V to run Hoyts political farce-com-
AAA edy success, "A Contented Wo-
man." a second week, beginning with
a matinee Sunday afternoon. This
clever satire on woman's rights has
been drawing capacity houses at every
performance since the first and the
crisp musical specialties which have
been interpolated in the farce have
served further to enhance its attrac-
tiveness.
Tickets purchased for "Mizpah," the
Wilcox Searelle Biblical drama, which
is to follow "a Contented Woman" at
the Burbank will be exchanged for
those of a proper date.
A second week is announced of 1.-THE
Telephone Girl at Fischer's theater.
The reorganized Fischer company has
made a big hit in this piece, the little
First street playhouse having been
filled at every performance.
Ben Graham, who joins the Belasco
company, making his local debut Mon
day night, now is on his way west.
He is studying the role of Mr. Ramsey
in "In the Bishops Carriage" en-
route, and will be compelled to play it
with only one or two rehearsals.

LABOR LEGISLATION
Republican States Have Been Lbs
eral In Legislation for
Labor. -
Democratic States Have Done Little
to Make Labor Conditions Better
Within Their Bounds.

It Is a fact that every important step
for the benefit of American labor has
been taken either by Republican
Congress and administration, or by the
Legislature Of a Republican State, Of
course with the consent, and sometimes
by the advice, of the State executive.
Democratic Congresses have been no.
tably negligent In this respect, and
Democratic States have either done
nothing to make labor conditions bet
ter within their bounds, or have slowly
and reluctantly followed at distance
In the trail of Republican reforms.

hibiting the counterfeiting Of the use
of such labels or trademarks by I'M
authorized persons. or these States
twenty-eight are Republican and twelve
are Democratic.
The foregoing presents for considera-
ton by intelligent, patriotic labor sub
stantial facts and figures taken from
the statute books OF the several States.
No platitude can upset them. They
prove the records OF the Republican
party and OF the Democracy on the la
Dor issue. and they must convince ev-
cry reasonable reader that the Republi-
can party has not only brought Ameri-
can labor up to its present honorable
standard. but that labor can look only
to the Republican party for assurance
of protection and prosperity In the
future.
