most original play on the stage of this
country.
1t is something to be able to say that
at least we can herald the coming of
new play, full of new ideas. situations
and startling effects. Such is true,
however, of the forthcoming production
of "a Royal Slave" which is put on in
a most artistic manner complete in
every detail. Mr.. Clarence Bennett has
always brought US the finest attrac-
tions and he assures us this is his
best. The play will be seen at the New
Odeon Sunday evening. Prices %, So,

Official Paper Of New Ulm.
Freedom of the Press.

That J. P. Morgan's office main
Sains censorship over the news sent
out by the Associated Press and that
private wire connects Morgan's Of
dice at Wal and Broad streets with
the Office of Melville E. Stone at 105
Broadway is the startling story now
going the rounds OF newspaper row in
New York City. This story results
from charges said to have been made
against Stone at the annual meeting
of the Associa ted Press held in New
York in April of this year. At this
meeting Stone was charged with being
in daily communication by private
wire with Morgan's Office and that all
important after handled by the AS
sociated Press was first submitted to
Morgan's press agent before being
sent out to the country. 1t is de-
declared Stone did not deny the ac-
cusation and has not made denial to
this day.
OF course the capitalist press has
never published this story. How
could the great papers of the nation
print this story when Morgan, repre-
senting and controlling the finances
apo which the papers depsnd for life,
says the story shall not be given publ

Eberhart for Senator?

2
Word comes from Washington that
Governor Eberhart, who has been
down there lunching with the president
and talking about the excessive
=drout that hovers over Northern
Minnesota since the Indian burau
got to regulating the internal affairs
of the state has an eyemaybe both
eyes-glued on the United States sena-
torship, and has mind to hoist his
lightning rod when the legisture get
around to electing a senator at the
coming session, Senator Clapp's term
being about to expire.
It is a little hard at this distance to
tell whether Washington is trifling
with us or not, and 1t may be that
somebody has got hold OF an old
calendar by mistake and thinks yester-
day was April /.
# the story is true, however, Cover
nor Eberhart will do we'll to sit back
for awhile and congratulate himself
on the extraordinary luck that has
landed him where he is. He certainly
is indebted to fate, and it would not
be the part of wisdom to tempt fate
by hazarding his fortunes too much.
At least he should wait and think
over his good fortune until Senator
Nelson's term expires Herald

AS was expected, Texas has moved
up two points in the census and is now
the fifth state, with population of
3, 1916, 5442. Massachusetts is sixth,
with 1866, 416, and Missouri seventh,
with 1898, 335. It was supposed that
Texas might push Ohio, but the latter's
i, 767, '2l will probably retain fourth
place for another decade. Indiana
loses the eighth place to Michigan,
the latter now leading by 2,8l0, 173 to
2,700,876. Georgia, Wisconsin and
California will occupy the position OF
tenth, eleventh and twelfth, but the
returns Of all are not yet announced.
Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee,
Alabama and Virginia are closely
grouped beyond the 1900, 600 line, and
Iowa and New Jersey are numerically
in the same company. The Texas in
crease Of 847, 1882 in ten years was sur.
passed only in New York, Pennsyl.

though Illinois came near it with

cation? Even the Hearst papers,
which pirate OF their freedom, did not
dare handle the real facts OF the Pam
anna Canal scandal because Harri-
man being one of the prime factors
involved in the Panama Canal steal
had Hearst in his power, it is said by
reason of an $4,000 loan. On good
authority it is declared that at this
moment the Hearst papers have a
complete story regarding the main
tainance and operation of a number
of houses of prostitution in New York
City by the Standard Oil, but dare
not print the story. Standard Oil
agents, according to this STORY, take
out of town business men, whom
Standard Oil desires to ruin, to these
houses, where they are robbed and
threatened with exposure subsequently
if they attempt to run counter to
Standard Oil interests. Why do not

Because they are not free,
Two years ago the New York
World bravely started an expose OF
the Panama Canal scandal. That the
World had the facts and could have
made good is conceded. Why did the
paper suddenly discontinue the ex-
pose? Not because it feared pro-
secution. The real reason was
the World simply could not afford
to antagonize the interests affected by
the Panama Canal steal.
Millions believe we have freedom of
the press in this country, If these mil
lions want to know how free the press
actually is let them inquire of any
managing editor of any daily paper
between the two oceans. OF all the
institutions Of slavery under capt.
alism the press is most typical and
complete, and the deplorable feature
connected with it is forced not only
to endure its slavery but actively to
perpetuate it.-Appeal to Reason.

What the figures of immigration for
