Gavin McNab, the last speaker at tn
luncheon, said, in part:
San Francisco is the soldest and
the newest city on the Pacific coast,
but the newest lesson it has learned
Is the lesson OF commercial unity
The day after the great fire the
word rang around the world that
Americans lived here, and there
also. rang around the world the
word that the blood of pioneers
flowed in San Francisco and that
this blood of the sons of noble
fathers would rebuild the ruined
city. The great calamity was the
challenge OF fate to our people, and
when the hands of our sister cities
We're extended 1t bred the spirit of
unity and brotherhood.
These three states-W ashington,
Oregon and California-are the
trustees for the. dominion of Amer
lea on the Pacific. Our political
subdivisions are merely for conven-
ience; historically and CONNER
cially we are one. Our prosperity
comes from a compounded continent
on the Pacific coast. Our motto
should be, zone for all and all for
one"

HAVELOCK, Neb.. Oct 5.-W. j.
Bryan was received here today in de-
lirium of enthusiasm. His arrival from
Lincoln shortly before O'clock In a
special trolley car, accompanied by 100
members of the Lincoln home guards,
was the signal for the great demon
stration. The carriage in which he
rode to the city park, where he spoke
to big audience. composed mostly of
Workmen in the railroad shops, ran a
gantlet of red fire and roman can
dies, while the throngs on the side
walks vociferously cheered him.
His remarks dwelt mainly on the
subject of campaign publicity, elee-
t1on OF senator's by direct vote of the
people and the labor planks in the
Denver platform. He was unsparing in
his attacks on Speaker Cannon, Sher-
man, the republican vice presidential
candidate, and Taft
Taking up the labor question, Bryan
denounced the speaker as an enemy to
legislation favorable to labor, and said
that SO long as he was in the speaker 5
chair nothing In the way of reform
could be secured
The democratic party, he insisted,
was pledged to the legislation for
which labor had been pleading.
Bryan left Lincoln at midnight for
one days campaigning tour in Iowa.

Miss Marie Boone as Anna, sister
character presented a personality of
loving charm-a womanly woman.
Her verve and tenderness were never
forced and she responded nobly to
the call of each situation.
Space forbids further notice of in
dividual work by the cast that it
deserves-they have undoubtedly es-
tablished a reputation by this per-
torrance.
To Miss Hawks, another faculty
member, belongs the credit of having
trained six Roman dancing girls who
danced their way int the hearts of
all present and were obliged to re-
spond to an encore.
The chorus Italia" which always
brings back all the wonderful charm
of Italy, added a new wreath of laur-
els TO the brow OF Miss Squier, the
leader. 1t is ever a difficult, labor.

a par with the usual College work.
The tragedy is laid in Carthage,
Africa, where Prince Aeneas with his
men have stopped to pay their re-
spects to the Queen, Dido, while on
their way to Italy to found new
| settlement. The Gods being propi-
tious, Cupid proceeds to mischief and
the revengeful Queen Dido forgets
the death of her husband Sychaeus in
the love of Aeneas. A roman We'd
ding follows.
At Jupiters command Mercury
appears before Aeneas in a dream
and recalls him to the duty he owes
his son, who is being defrauded of his
due. But Cupid is thoro workman
and Dido a beautiful woman, so Mer-
curry is obliged to make a second eff
| fort
Following the departure of Aeneas
for the shores of Italy comes the
death of Dido by her own hand and
the play ends.
Dec dedly, the work of all partici-
pants is above the average. Special
mention may be made of several
characters. Chief among these is
the work of Miss Rae Olmstead. AS
Queen Dido she displayed keen I'M
derstanding of all that was required
and led up to the climax with skill.
Mss Olmstead has the rare gift of
naturalness which lent a reality to
her scenes that brought the audience
into touch with her; which, in pass
ing, we may say is uncommon even in
many of our best artists on the stage
to-day.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 2l.-ScC-
ietary Taft's first day Mt his desk
since his return to the United States
was a busy one from beginning to
end. He had great number of call
ers. If they talked politics, and
some of them admitted that they
did, notably General Bristow, the
Secretary himself was not to be led
into any discussion of that subject
with the newspaper men who wished
him to talk about 1t later. In fact,
he said to thcm very plainly that the
theme was forbidden one at this
moment but If the proper occasion
arose in the future he would be glad
To make full statement on the sub
iect.
That answer covered all questions
MS to his plans for-thc immediate flu
ture, such as the probability of his
going to Ohio to take part in the con-
test over the early primaries. lie did
admit, however. that he would attend
the banquet of the Home Market Club
of Boston and address that b5dy on
the night of December 3Oth. The
topic is to be the Philippine tariff,

as political in its relation to the

The Call of Dec. 25 says:


Y. +. Schwerin, general manager
of the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany, who arrived ON monday from
New York, where he had been IN
conference with l.. H. Hartman. said
yesterday that the fate of the line to
the Orient rested entirely with the
board Of directors of the company,
which would reach decision before
next April
At a recent dinner in New York
City, Mr.. Schwerin, being called up
ON to speak, said that the service to
the Orient would be discontinued ow-
ing to the attitude OF the Govern
mcnt with regard to ra,e-making,
and that as the Interstate Commerce
Commission had made n ruling that
rate to be effective had to be post
ed for 80 days, the Pacific Mail was
unable to compete with its rivals. the
japanese, or with the Suez lines.
When Schwerin was asked yester-
day whether he gtill held these opin-
i'H'' hN hlhlh'hill'u ollthNts bhN' Dt-
lng requested to give information rs
to the continuance of the steamer
service, he replied:
The matter is now before the
board Of directors, and this question
will be decided between now and
April l."
Can you throw any more light on
the situation" he was asked.
No; can not. It all rests with
the board That is how the matter
stands"
Railroad and steamship men are
not inclined to believe that this SER
vice will be discontinued. They ar
que that the steamer service Is nee
essary to the Hartman railroad sys-
tenn that the two lines are indispen-
sable to each other, and that Harrl-
man and Schwerin are simply hold
ing a club over the Government.
Merchants doing business with the
Orient are worried over the situation
for they fear that If the Pacific Mail
were to go out of business no reli-
ance could be placed upon the Jap
anese lines so far as rates were con-
Cerned. II Is quite certain that the
rates would be advanced, as the Jap
anese would have no rivals.
