over.supply of Actors.


Five thousand actors are said to be
out of employment in this country.
rhe number may be exaggerated, but
flguratively II represents a depression
IN the theater world which really ex-
lists. Some OF these unemployed thes-
plans are undoubtedly capable actors,
while many others probably do not
belong in the star class The naturally
quiet tone OF business all over the
country plays its part in this situa-
tiSn, and, then, back of that is the
fact that stage men have fearfully
overdono the thing; that they have
built too many theaters and lowered
the grades Of acting more than they
have elevated them. The charge is also
made that they have put the empha-
sis upon the cheaper play, turned the
spotlight upon the flashy article, ap-
pealing to the less lofty sense Of
theater-goers and that they have let
down their bars to sensatlonalism In
reckless measure.
1t is not to be questioned that men
and women are stalking before the
footlights and mouthing foolish lines
who have no business there; who are
by no stretch of the imagination
actors and whose only element of
value lies in some vagrant caper that
has brought them into more or less
cheap repute. In some cases even
moral debasement has been the asset.
These people, of course, have crowded
off the stage some real players and
the deplorable fact is that the the
atricai entrepreneurs find ready re-
sponse to their appeal at the box
office. or course, they do or they
would make another sort of appeal
They are not in the business to mis-
interpret popular likes and dlslikes
And that is their defense, indefensl'
BILE, ethically, as 1t may appear. The
legitimate and meritorious caste will
get the encore when the patrons OF
the theater give It, In the mean
time the cheap and nasty theateI
flourishes because It meets the de
mand. Still, that is not to say there
is no room on the stage today FOL
genuine acting. The actor of excep
tional powers is not wanting for {
job and one that pays handsome in
come, at that, though he be in thu

Patent Real Estate Valuations.

The owner OF a patent for real
estate valuations is endeavoring to
convince our property owners of the
efficacy of his system" and TO per-
suade the county assessor and
county board to make deal with
him for territorial rights. The in
fallible remedy for iniquities In real
estate assessments may possibly
have been discovered and patented.
and, II so, the pateptee shows lauda-
BILE enterprise In endeavoring to
spread It's benefits far and wide.
The Inevitable and admitted ten
dency OF the proposed system, how
ever. is to increase realty valuations
wherever applied, irrespective OF as
sessments OF other kinds OF property
or assessments Of the same kind Of
property elsewhere. II strikes us,
therefore, that in the matter of as
sessment for taxation we are con-
fronted by a condition rather than
theory, and that, while we doubt
less need radical equalization of ex-
listing valuations. to elevate the gem
eral level arbitrarily and buy q
patent right for that purpose would
be a costly luxury.
A little careful scrutiny will read
lily show why this is 80. Our as
sessments for taxation here In

stand by themselves. but are part oi

The decisive vote by which the
American Federation OF Labor over
rode the attempt OF the radicals to
drive Mr.. Gompers and other labor
leaders out Of the National Civic
Federation is at once severe blow
to unressoning radicalism and a
tribute to common sense and fair
play. These same radicals in the
Mine Workers union were able to
force John Mitchell out OF the Civic
Federation, though Mr.. Mitchell
says, It required a packed conven-
tlon to do It. IL is gratifying to
know this power does not control
the highest court OF union labor.
The National Civic Federation
represents the public. the employer
and the employe, while the Ameri-
can Federation OF Labor represents
only the employe. why should they
not get on together? why should
the interests and purposes Of one be
inimical to the other? II Is q dan

under the highest appreciation OF
this relation. No workingman can

Labor and capital may still have

organization Is not necessarily an in
