Tonight
iMlss FLORENCE DAVIS WILL
CLOSE THE LOCAL SEASON AT
THE GRAND,

Why does Nora leave home, and did
4 she ever return to TOrvald? These are
questions that have been asked times
without number by the students Of
Henrik Ibsens "a Dolls House" the
offering in which Miss Florence Davis,
supported by Mr.. Elliott Dexter ard a
wholly adequate company, comes 10
the Grand Opera House tonight.
Miss Davis in her clever portrayal
OF Nora, makes the answer plain, so
Splain that he who runs may read Sne
shows the petted wife, a mere doll,
growing into a woman, and as a wo,
man, recognizing that she has place
in the world-a duty to perform. She
shows that she must leave her hus.
hand and her children for there in
her dolls house her soul cannot de.
: yelop. The tragedy so narrowly avert,
ed by the return Of the note with It's
forged endorsement leoves the man
self-satisfied and self-centered as ever.
Nora could not help him because he
believes he can do no wrong. She
must go out into the world, for her
! souls salvation demands It
Miss Florence Davis, a southern
girl, has grasped perfectly the Ibsen
Ideal Of Nora, and entering with her
whole spirit into the portrayal, makes
the character a fascinating and ap.
pealing one. In every sense she is in
earnest and in the role she does the
best work she has yet done.

Some time ago, Mt the request of The
Tribune representative, Mr., Farms
worth, secretary of the board of land
ly, for the holiday edition an enter
tanning and instructive article on the
operation of the Carey land act in
this state, and the irrigation propects
in which Utah is interested. This, too,
WAS duplicated by Mr.. Farnsworth.
More than two weeks ago Mr.. Farms
worth gave the representative of The
Tribune his copy, which was brought
10 The Tribune office.
Some time later the Herald-Republl-
can was given copy. No grass was
permitted 10 grow under the feet of
the Gimlet s Jealous editors. Last
Monday Mr.. Farnsworth s article ap-
peared in the Gimlet aforesaid, much

editorial division and much TO the dis
gust Of Mr.. Farnsworth
The Gimlet had scored another gi-

Meanwhile, it may be said for the
information of those who are not IA

that experts in various lines-officials
included-are often asked to contribute
special articles particularly about their

likely to lose its franchise, or, al least,
TO suffer heavy fine.
a newspaper-that is. newspaper
with n name-would prefer to stop its
presses and destroy its entire edition
than to break faith with man or

The repeated breaches of which the
Gimlet has been guilty in this respect
casts odium upon every newspaper IN
the city and upon the entire newspaper
fraternity as well. People soon come

midst such a monstrosity as this Gimlct,

honor and faith are rs dead as the
soul of music that once made Tara s
halls famous, and whose sure intent is
only to do reprehensible things.
The only hope is that sensible people
will not in any sense take the Gimlet
as a standard by which to Judge the
character of the other papers in this
town, nor its editors in the same light
as other editors who seek earnestly
to maintain the plane Of honesty, in

Protection "Looic."

THE London Standard has discov-
cred that on the average American
wages are 2H times as much as Brit
ish wages. In declaring that the diff
ference is due to the protective policy
the Standard shows a logical mind
st. Louis Globe Democrat.
Why then are not wages higher in
Germany and France than in Eng
land? The conditions of life in all
three countries are practically the
same and not different as they are in
England and America. Yet in England
under free trade wages are far higher
than in Germany and France under
protection. Moreover wages in Amer
lea were higher than any in Europe in
the beginning because of natural con-
ditions that still obtain, and the argu-
ment for a tariff was that our infant
industries" having to pay wages so
much higher than European indus
tries had to pay, ought to have protec-
tion equal to the difference until they
got established. But now we have it
that protection is what makes high
wages. How can a thing be both
cause and effect? First wages are
higher and therefore we must have
protection; second, protection has
made wages higher and therefore it
must be maintained. Verify, such is
protection logic.
