Moore laughed heartily. EVERY time

care you sorry you had to play in
stock so long?"
Sorry? I should say not. That stock
training was invaluable to me, though
I admit I'd hate to go through it again.
Some people only remember me as a
| vaudeville artist. They didn't hear of
me in my stock days. But I tell you
that a mere vaudeville experience will
never fit a man for the legitimate stage.
After some time In stock your rough
edges are bound to be polished off.
You've got to have q knowledge of
stage tricks and business in order to be

"But, in order to act well, 1t must be
born in YOU" Mr.. Moore added, with a
grin.

Ing an actor of anybody I know Of"
Mr.. Moore again, began to think of
Newark.
"a short time after I left here I went
on a vacation up in Vermont" said he,
land, being lonesome, I wrote - a
Newark weekly, saying I'd answer all
letters SEM to me. Gee! used to get
so many a week that the postal author
tiles In that little village regarded me
as a Suspicious character. But it did
me good to know so many liked me-"
"You used to be awfully popular
among the girls of this little village. Do
you still receive notes from them?"
mot so many as when / was in
stock I hin hat sort of thing is
dying out" said he, with a shake of
his head. Lots of people want my au-
tograph, ana you'd be surprised at the
number of letters / get suggesting
ways of making the show better. One
fellow wrote and told me to have Miss
Palmer, when she hands back that
check for fifty thousand to me, to hold
1t SO as to display two bullet holes,
proving that she was shot In the
check That's only, one of the sugges-
lions / receive
Victor Moore chuckled. "a great
many write, asking me to send them
the music of the entire show. They
think 1 get 1t for nothing. Say they
know parts of it, but want the words.
There are some funny ones in this
world"
Shakespeare Was Right.
When 1 started to leave, Mr.. Moore
became serious. 49,.
'I tell o what" said he. with
energy, Chat old comedian William
Shakespeare spoke the truth when he
said the plays the thing No matter
how good a man is nowadays, he's got
to have the play. I believe that l
would have been as SUCCESSFUL eight OF
ten years ago if / had had a chance.
THAT welcome made me feel good
last night" he added. i've got lots
and lots of friends in the gallery
"And downstairs, too said l, with
conviction.
'Weli, maybe" answered Mr.. Moore,
'sbut the ones up in the gallery used to
come and see me for the same price
they're paying now. They haven't for
gotten me, and it makes me glad"
Which goes to prove that success has
not made him proud or 'aughty. Good
luck to him.

tice in partial self-government to
govern themselves. 1t is a task full
OF difficulty, and one which many
Americans would be glad to be rid of.
1t has been suggested that we might
relieve ourselves of this burden by
tho sale of the islands to Japan or
some other country. The suggestion
is absurd. Japan does not want the
Philippines. She has a problem of
similar nature neafer home. But
more than this, thd United States
could not sell the islands to another
Bower without the grossest violation
of its obligations to the Philippine
people. No other course in honor is
open to it. Under all these circum-
stances, then, could anything be more
wicked and more infamous than the
suggestion of war between nations
who have enjoyed such a time hon
ored friendship and who have nothing
to fight for?''
In the fA: Jor of his prOtestations
of American amity for the Japanese
Mr.. Taft kept far away from the over
sentimental vein, which might have
laid a less experienced statesman
open to the criticism of administering
soft solder" to the Emperor and his
ministers. Through the entire speech
ran a broad. blazed trail of American
spirit and fearlessness.

MR. BRYAN AND
BUSINESS CONFIDENCE

Those who are declaring with light
hearts, here and there, that the cleo
tion of Mr.. Bryan would cause no dis
turbance and do little harm because
his hands would be firmly tied by a
Republican Senate, do not weigh care
fully the elements which make up
business confidence. Whether Mr..
Bryan succeeded in doing much direct
injury to the public credit and to bus
mess progress by his wierd notions on
public finance is not so much the
question as the indirect injury he
would do by the distrust which would
be caused in business circles by his
election, and which would probably
be prolonged through his administra-
tion. 1t is doubtful if large interests
would care to embark on new enter
prises under a government whose eX-
ecutive head had declared that 1.-The
gold standard is a conspiracy against
the human race" and that it would
remain in force no longer than he
could get rid of it. There is no indi-
cation as yet that Mr.. Bryan has ex-
perienced a great change of heart on
these questions. On the contrary, his
last convention at Denver expressly
declared that if there was to be an
emergency currency, "such currency
should be issued and controlled by
the Federal Government. In other
words, free silver having been rele-
gated to the garret, a still cheaper
substitute is to be found in free Gov
ernment paper
The actual execution of such
projects may seem remote, but it
would be so easily In the power of
Bryan Secretary of the Treasury to
bring anxiety and disturbance into
the market that something like par
alysis would be likely to afflict the
business community during his en-
tire term of service. 1t is a question
which would come home directly to
every working man, in a restricted
volume of business and the curtail-
ment of employment. The great cap
italists and railway pioneers are un-
doubtedly prepared to go forward
with construction and improvements
upon a large scale II the election
inspires their confidence. They will
withhold their enterprises and keep
business within narrow limits under a
President whom they distrust For
the working man, therefore, who de-
sires the continuance of the full din
ner pail and a well lined pocket, a
vote for Mr.. Bryan means a vote
squarely against his own interests.
1t is doubtful If any declaration
which Mr.. Bryan could make in the
desperate scramble for votes would
change this feeling Of distrust into
confidence.

NORTH CAROLINA FOR TAFT.

Taft sentiment is so pronounced In
the South as to give strength to the
belief that the breaking of the solid
South" is near at hand. This is par
ticularly the case In North Carolina.
John G. Capers, of Charleston, S. c.,
who has been studying conditions In
North Carolina, is convinced that the
sentiment is so strong I'm that State as
20 safely place II In the Republican
column. Said he with the possi-
BILE exception of Maryland. the Re-
publicans have a better chance of car
rying North Carolina this year than
OF carrying any Southern State, not
even excepting Missouri or Kentucky.
II the business men of North Carolina
have the courage to vote TO their con-
victions, there will be no doubt about
the Republicans carrying the State.
Four years ago the $4,000 Repub-
lican votes came mostly from the
country districts. The business men
are apprehensive of the election of
Mr.. Bryan, and l believe that they
will march up to the polls and vote
against him."
