ADJUSTMENTS.
At the Grand.

At the Grand.
Tomorrow night the first presentation
of the great drama Ben Hur, under tn
management of Klaw & Erlanger, will
take place. For weeks this event has
been looked forward to. as the biggest
theatrical treat of the season. And the
Topeka people will all be there.
This is evidenced by the advance sale
of seats which has been very heavy.
Every seat in the balcony has been
sold already. but Manager Roy Craw-
ford is receiving many orders by mail
for these seats. The attendance prom
ises to break all records. The only
seats available at the present time are
a few on the mezzanine floor and sew
eral on the lower floor. A large por-
tion of the attendance will be from out
of town. The drama has been ex-
tenstvely advertised i'm every town
within radius of one hundred miles
All week carpenters have been at
work on the stage. This is necessary
for the special scenery which is used
for this great production. 1t requires
several days to put in the special ap-
paratus, for the chariot race and for
the panorama Of the Roman amphi
theater. The company uses two COM
plete sets of paraphernalia. While one
set is in use here the carpenters will be
busy installing the other set at the
next stopping point
Ben Hur will be presented four times
in Topeka, Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday of this week, with a matinee
Saturday afternoon.
The Strolling Players which opened
at the. Grand last night form this
weeks bill of burlesque. And it is a
very acceptable company and gives a
good performance. A good sized house
was in attendance last night. There
are several pleasing features in the
bill. In the first part there is a take
off of many of the prominent leading
lights of the theatrical world, which is
mirth producing in the highest sense.
A little sketch entitled New Years Eve
in which Samuel Libert, Eddie Barto
and Margie Conboy play the leading
parts is one of the strong parts of the
bill.
The specialties are also good. There
IS male quartette which is probably
Nhe most pleasing side stunt. The

ASTORIA IN THE FIESTA.

There is a splendid opportunit,
ahead of this city for impressing the
people of Portland and her thousands
of visitors with the conviction that
Astoria is really within the limits Of
Oregon; and that is by devising a
magnificent float for the great Rose
parade that is to mark the opening OF
the Fiesta there this summer. No
effort should be spared by our people
to make a winner. We have as many
and beautiful roses as any commln-
ity in all Oregon and we should send
such display as will forever make
US notable in the pleasant annals of
such competition.
The glory OF the Oregon rose is a
common possession and will serve ad-
mirably as a vehicle for conveying a
sense of our importance as an outpost
OF civilization to our friends up the
river and their friends from abroad.
The proposal adverted to by Manager
Whyte in his report to the Chamber of
Commerce last evening, must not be
forgotten, for a successful venture in
this may react in favor OF our
own regatta later in the season.

CLEVER Mr.. SEUFERT.

II n.
baton of the Oregonian by his time
" declaration in favor of state aid to
the proposition to keep the Colum-
bia river open for eternity, so that
the commerce of the whole Oregon
country may be DETECTED to and from
the Portland markets. Mr.. Seufert is
a clever man, with a cherished idea
of his own in the shape of fshwheels,
wherefor he desires friendly avouchal
of that influential paper when the
proper time comes to sway public
opinion in their favor as against the
protest of the thousands of men at
this end of the river who are engaged
in the salmon fisheries, and whose
business is jeopardized by Mr.. Seu-
fert's reckless and predatory style OF
fishing. Mr.. Seufert is to be compli-
mented on his adroitness, but we fear
it will not pan out just as he has
figured it might.
In the first place state aid is not
needed for the Port OF Portland. The
people OF Portland may have spent al
the Oregonian claims they have spent
in deepening the channel of the river
hence to the metropolis, and it was
commendable thing for them TO DO,
and they have won untold Volumes
of sheer profit from the enterprise;
they have been paid over and over
again for all they have done in the
vremise; but the people at large are
not yet ready to be taxed to build Up
that, or any other particular port;
they expect the ports to get in and do
these things for themselves, and this
will be found the gauge if ever the
audacious plan is submitted.
We are all proud Of Portland and
her commercial achievement and
would like to see it enhanced immeas-
urably, but not by direct state taxa
ton. That will be resisted to the last
ditch, and the Oregonian knows it
better than any OF us. There may be,
in time, half a hundred ports between
the Columbia bar and falls Of the
Willamette, and they must take care
OF the river with such help as the
government will allow; but there will
be no building up of even our great
est port to the derogation and disuse
of other hopeful communities along
the line.
The Port of Portland is an immense
factor in the commerce of Oregon
and yet it is not the whole thing in
this state. Even Astoria hopes to
share its preferential status some
day, and do business for the state ard
the whole Columbia basin, without
Being subject, to the overwhelming
prerogatives that Commission would
assume on the Columbia river.
When the Oregonian talks about
the general good Of the State of
Oregon it should bear in mind that a
vast majority of Oregonians are in-
clined to the belief that it means
Portland, that being about all there
is to this commonwealth, on the upper
floors of the building with the tall
tower. Not always, of course, but
generally speaking; and invariably,
when the Columbia river (either end
of it) is under discussion.
