George B. Chandler doesn't believe in Speaker Cannon. He is, says MT. Chandler:
 Temperamentally a reactionary. His face is toward the past. His political ideals and methods belong to another generation. We want balance wheels but we don't want the balance wheel to be the whole engine, and Speaker Cannon Is the whole engine AAlso. the Speaker should be a man who is able to lead and If MT. Cannon can't hold the Republican majority in the House, then let him gracefully abdi- cate in the interests of the organiza- tien for which ha expresses such de- vOtion.
 eBut MT. Chandler views with alarm this uprising against the pro- tective tariff," though he does not state how far he would go in its support, which is the main point in the matter. With regard to the cor porate question, he says:
 The people do not hate the cor porat1ons. It is the suspicion that public men are controlled by cor porations that makes the public an- gry- All that the people ask is a square deal, but they. want to know that our public men are giving them a square deal as we'll as the cor porations.

Senator Buckley delivered an ad- dress at Putnam, last week, in which he defended all recent Federal legis- lation. In particular, he endorsed the Aldrich tariff, the railroad bill, the postal savings bank bill and naval in crease. Comment is hardly necessary upon such a wholesale endorsement It acQuits him of even the slightest trace of Insurgency, and classes him as a regular of the regulars, and wholly devoid of independence in either thought or action. He is evil dently mere registering machine of Aldrichian wishes.

Edward M. Shepard touched, in a recent. address to the graduating class of the N. Y. Law school, upon the asked to advise client who wishes to do something which may, under cer- tain circumstances, be illegal. He asserted that where there is an iI- legal way and legal way to accom- plish what the client wishes to do the lawyer Is justified in pointing out the safe course. He added:
 Shall a lawyer help his client to violate the law? is a much-discussed question nowadays. If a client comes to you and says he meditates a burg lary, you will be criminal if you him. If the client is a corporation, this still holds true. But the law is very complex. There are thousands of statutes. In the wonderful dhicket of statutory prohibitions, corpora ton or man may wish to do some thing innocent It may be illegal if done under one statute and legal if done under another statute. A law yer is morally justified in advising a man or corporation under what statute an act may be legally per- formed.
 
 avoids the question of right or wrong He assumes that if an act can be legally performed under one statute, though it be made illegal by another statute, it is necessarily right, but is not the reverse proposition equally true and by the same reasoning, viz, that when an act is illegal under one statute though made legal by an- other, it is necessarily wrong?
 MT. Shepard belongs to the class of so-ca1led corporation lawyers, D and it is perhaps not strange that in his mind the question of intrinsic right or wrong is dwarfed by the possibility of finding a statute per hitting what is made illegal by an- other The moral question seemingly does not appeal to him. 4 similar lack of perception has made million aires of the more skilled corpora ton lawyers"

Although Sir Charles has been asso-

as to the possible success of great COM
mercial and political problems in the form
of plays:
THE greater the subject, the greater
chance 1t has to ngage the attention OF
an audince. 1 am sure plays dealing with
themes like that in The Fourth Estate
for example, will always interest. II they
fail 1t is not on account Of the theme, but
on account of the construction of the

treated, is not available for this purpose.

their own responsibilities. She is a very
consistent character, faithful throughout
to a very human policy, or human eccen-
tricity, II you prefer. We should not let
the race die out, but preserve it carefully.
ITO refer again to the subject OF chang
ing plays; not very long ago a playwright
brought me one of his productions and l
suggested to him that he rewrite the last
act; it did not seem to me to, have that
logical ending that the strength of his
theme demanded. He refused and the play
was brought out as 1t was. We are not
as demonstrative in London as you are
here, but on that occasion, to my amaze
ment, three curtain calls were given after
the first act, five after the second, eight
after the third, and the fourth was greeted
with a large, unmistakable Boo and the
piece was killed. / have never had a SINH
lar experience, for it has many times hap
pened that three good acts would carry
a weak first or fourth.

is all.
I'm England the next step after playing

the natural evolution with us, but it does
not necessarily follow here I understand.
Personally, 1 think this does away with
the weakness of the star system. where
too often everything is sacrificed to his
popularity, and though we actor managers
are often fiercely criticised for not sur
rounding ourselves with competent sup
