some Notes of the Stage.
LINCOLN. Feb. Ito the Editor Of The
Bee:
Producing managers are to have a meet
elimination of the state OF Oklahoma from
the theatrical scheme, This calamity Is
threatened on account OF the action of the
transportation rates II cost 81 200 more to
carry Ben Hur" 500 miles I'm Oklahoma
short time ago than II did In the adjoining
states and that precpitated the trouble.
Regarding the above article please permit
me 10 say, that the handicap placed on
the travelling theatrical profession IN the
state of Oklahoma by the railroads Is
disgrace to civilization. The mere fact
that the railroads doing business in that
state have banded together TO fight the
legislature and the people, whether a 2
cent per mile per capita rate or a Scent
per mile per capita rate should govern
business. does not excuse them for the
burden they have placed on theatrical man
ayers who ere trying to make a living in
that country. Theatrical business is an in
dustry that gives employment to thousands
Of people They are obliged 10 travel in
parties ranging from ten TO 200 In order
to entertain the public AS the industry Is
one that is heavily taxed and Is also an
important factor in every day life, why
manner and fix rates that will permit them
10 tour the state Of Oklahoma and have
some margin OF profit?
For several months past all rates have
been wiped out OF existence in that state.
and not until / started TO grange the tour
Of the Ben Hur" company was any at.
tention given to the situation. With Ben
Hur' we carry more than 80 people. To
play the towns OF Tulsa, Mukogee Nc
Auster and Oklahoma City en- route from
Fort Worth TO Springfield. Mo. It required
an outlay Of 5000 No show that travels
can stand such a drain on the treasury.
The attention OF Klaw & Granger, Charles

Conan q Harris. Henry W. Savage. Liebler

Of America was called to a. They i'm
mediately cancelled the tour OF several OF
their enterprises throughout the state. and
are now forming plans 10 keep their az
fractions away from Il until the railroads
