THE MIKADO

The Opera House was crowded last
evening when the gentlemen of the
orchestra of the Mikado, issuing from
beneath the stage, took their places
attired in handsome kimonos.
They received an ovation for the
chic originality of the idea, and re-
sponded by the overture 50 familiar
to all.
The curtain rose upon the courtyard
of Ko-Ka's official residence, charm
ingly appropriately set for old Japan.
The second act brought a storm of
appreciative applause, garden scene,
festooned with gay Japanese lanterns
sweeping down from a large center
light, and pink cherry blossom trees
blooming upon the stage.
The play as a whole reflected the
greatest possible credit to the ladies
and gentlemen of the cast, Mr.. and
Mrs. Hughes, and Mr.. Kipling under
whose supervision the production was
cast.

and gentlemen's chorus, was clever, in
perfect unison, and the dramatic pict-
ures well posed.

great deal of praise.
Mr. David Anderson, as Pooh Bah
was excellent, his every action reveal

His ennuciatfon was deep, rich and
clear so that not one word of the dia-
logue was missed.
Mr.. James Dougherty looked exceed
ingly handsome as Nanh-Poo, the
lover of Yum Yum, his sweet voice be-
ing greatly appreciated and his acting
rejecting credit to this clever per
former.
The black and gold kimono, which
he wore in the second act, was revela-

Not Defeat, But Victory.

II is a notable victory that prohibit
ton has achieved in Texas. No one at
all familiar with the situation and the
temperament of many of the voters of
the state expected that the temperance
forces would come within q gunshot of
carrying the State. The interests We're
aggressive and defiant and boasted of
having put million of money into the
fight.
What has been the result? The car
rying of the State by the anti-state-
wide forces by ma jority of consider
able less than 5000, upon the face of the
returns. The late dispatches from
Houston state that Chairman BAH of
the state-w wide prohibition committee,
claims that frauds have been practiced
and that he will resort TO the caurts.
Several things are worth taking into
consideration in connection with this
narrow margin for the rum interests,
which the courts may set aside in the
end, on account of fraud, or the final
official returns upset. The last time
that statewide prohibition was voted
upon in Texas it was defeated by 80,
900 majority, according to the cam
paign literature issued by the executive
committee of Harris county, and judg-
ing from the editorial utterances in
the papers of that State, who were OPP
posed to statewide prohibition, they
expected a humping majority i'll their
favor this time. And one of the rea-
sons alleged by the liquor interests for
putting so much money into the cam
paisn was that they wanted to make
the majority SO decisive that it would
quiet the agitation for statewide pro-
hibition for good many years to
come
The deep interest taken throughout
the state in the campaign is shown
from the fact that the total vote was
about AIS. 900, which is, with one ex~
ception. the largest vote ever polled in
Texas Reports also show that in the
northern countries there was a heavy
vote for prohibition, which could be
hardly more than offset by the vote OF
the southern counties and those lying
on the Texas border.
Temperance workers in Maine have
every reason TO feel encouraged over
the vote in Texas-one- time wild ana
woody Texas-ef which Gen. Sherman
said in the days when it was populated
by wild and iawless men: IF owned
Hell and Texas / would rent Texas.
The temperance sentiment is growing
all over the country and nowhere has 1t
been so evident as in this elgahuc
struggle, which has just been fought
out in the Lone Star State.

shouting that the distiliers and out of
state dealers in whisky are in favor
of the prohibitory law; that they are

In proof of our contention that these
pretensions are downright falsehoods
1t is only necessary to state simple,
every day facts. One of these is that

received by mail from Cincinnati

dozen fake dispatches and other mis-
leading statements on the liquor ques-
ton-and 1t all came from the Ma
tional Wholesale Liquor Dealers AS

as 1t is, why are they sending out this
stun denouncing the law and urging

the twelve:

The Man Who Encourages the Sale of
Liquor by Vote or Word.

Who that has seen a dearly beloved

dignity of physical manhood by the
dreadful evil of drink; dow from the
harvest of the schools and the Guilt

poverty, hunger, rags, and unsanita-
nv indifference; down to idleness, de-
bauchery, crime and the filthy prison
cell; down to the loss of self-respect

gering steps, till the last goal, the
drunkards grave has been reached,
hut must detest. with ell the intensity
of an offended and insulted soul, the
man or woman who has been the in
strument of that sons downfall
The rumseller is guilty of all this and
more. Nothing is so hardening to all
human instincts as the liquor business.
1t turns manhood into brutality and
prepares those engaged in II for the
most reprehensible and criminal trans
actions. 1t eliminates affection and
brushes pity and mercy. II ignores the
widows tears and the orphans cry for
bread and would steal the coppers that
closed the dead fathers eyes.
There Is no excuse for this tratffc
and no reason for its existence but the
insatiate selfishness and unlimited
greed of those who love money more
than the peace of our homes and the
we'll being of society
Some tell us we must discriminate
between the rumseller and his abomt-
nahle business. Such talk should

The Liquor Trust Tricks

In batch of rum trust literature
received from the National Wholesale
Liquor Dealers Assn at Cincinnati,
Monday, We find the following false
and misleading fake dispatch:
Augusta, Me.-Discouraged in their eff
fofts to get petitions signed in Maine
asking for the retention of the prohibit
tory amendment to the constitution, the
prohibitionists have appealed to Eu-
Organs Tbis nat,t Tor SIGNATURES to petition,
ly every country of Europe and will be
presented to the Legislature when IL as
sembles. II is hardly probable that the
petition will have any effect on the people
of Maine who have not been accustomed
to go to Europe to ask how their state
should be governed.
This trumped-up message from the
Maine Capital is untrue in every par
tieular, and is on par with much of the
stuff that is being sent out by the
liquor interests. Name people krow
that Old World interest in the Maine
fight to save the prohibitory law was
responsible for the voluntary express
sion Of foreign encouragement to the
people of Maine. No one resents it
but the over-sensitive liquor interests
outside of Maine. Maine people have
had to appeal to no one for petitions
or aiG, neither have they failed to get
signatures, nor have they become dis
cograged.
1t is only one more of the cheap
rum trust tricks to defeat the law by
fnnline u0ters
