The Best Play in The English
LANGUAGE.

Viewed exclusively as a dramatic
fabric, 'Othello' is not only the best of
Shakespeare's plays, but the best play
in the English language, says Mr..
William Winter in the August
Century" Midsummer Holiday Num-
ber) in the fourth of his scholarly
papers on Shakespeare on the Stage, "
"No story could be more simple,
direct, fluent, and elementally tragic;
but with what marvellous skill the poet
has told it, with what ingenuity of
invention, with what vibrant vitality of
continuous action, with what ample and
superb drawing of character, what
prodigious volume of feeling, what
tumult of surging and conflicting
passion, and what perfection of poetic
style -

We always like to know what our
friends, the enemy, think of us. Here
are the opinions of two OF our prom
inent republican friends. Read them
carefully. They are worthy OF your
best thought.
A Tribute TO Socialists.
In an address before the United
States Senate, on August 9TH, Senator
Jonathan Bourne, Jr., of Oregon,
paid this tribute to the socialists;
Il am not a socialist, though be-
lieve in some ideas advocated by that
political party. Some of the teach
ings OF socialism l believe to be un-
wise. Nevertheless, / freely admit
that / may be wrong and they may
be right. Many of us are believers
in political principles or methods
which twenty years ago seemed i'm
practicable or even foolish. But
whether / agree with the socialists
or not. and whether time shall dis
close that they are in error or that
j am, ] shall not charge them with
advocating changes in governmental
form for the mere sake OF change. !
know Of no class OF people who are
more z%ealously devoted to principles
In which they believe or who are
apparently actuated by a more IN
selfish desire to promote the general
welfare than are the socialists, and
while / may not agree with all their
views, / do not question the purity
of their motives or the sincerity of
their efforts to secure what they be-
lieve to be a change for the better"
Socialists Not Questioned.
In an address at Akron, Ohio,
Judge Wannamaker, a republican,
told his fellow %party-men:
Popular government never was on
trial like it is today. Progressive re-
publicans demand that political power
be placed back in the hands OF the
people, and If it be not returned
through the republican or democratic
party the new party Of socialism will
return not only the political power
but very largely private and corporate
property to the hands OF the people"
There you have it. The old party
leaders can see the handwriting on
the wall. Now, you old party voters,
shake up that jelly mass where your
brains ought to be and think for your
selves. How a the old party give
back" to the people unless they have
previously taken away from the peo-
pie?
Confession Is good for the soul and
Judge Wannamaker is simply confess
sing for the republican party that they
have taken away the political power
from the people and, now, they talk
of giving 1t back only because they
are afraid the people, themselves,
will take back that power through
their wv party, the socialist party.

deal of time and money in preparing
