THEATER SEASON.
Majestic and Novelty Open To-day
Seat Sale Large.

The sale of seats at the Majestic and
Novelty, which open today, has been
satisfactory; most of the good seats
for 1.-The Return of Eve" are gone,
and though there is scarcely any adj
vance sale at the Novelty, good au-
nee will begin at o'clock instead of
2:30, and the performance at the Ma
jestic is to open promptly at S:15.
Patrons are urged to be early as no
one will be seated during the acts
1.-The Fourth Estate" a big news
paper play, will be shown the week of
September 2 at the Majestic. 1t had
a long run in New York, and is one
of the strong dramas of the day.
The theater is looking bright-new
seats, new scenery (the old red room
is gang awa), and charming deeora-
proscenium arch is the new canvas,
but under it, alas, is the same old cur
tain. Old friends are dearest, but
most attractive when CARRIED in
fresh frock.
The dress rehearsal took place at
the Majestic Saturday night. The cast

PEPPERELL TALKS.
Secretary of the Democratic Commit
tee breaches Harmony.

w. H. L. Pepperell of Concordia
and who for more than quarter OF
century has been secretary or the
Democratic state central committee, is
wroth over the attempts being made
by few Democrats to spread dissen-
sion within the ranks of the party. In
cidentally PeppereH aspires to the
Craftsmanship of the state committee
and is being doomed for the place by
National Committeeman Sapp, as Well
as many other prominent Democrats
from all parts of the state.
LAS a candidate for the chairman
ship,s' said Mr.. Pepperell, sit is nat
uraI that 1 should want to see Mr.. Mar
tin succeeded by someone else, but do
not want to see. the change madc at
he expense of a general factional dis
turbance. 1t seems to me that all
loyal Democrats should drop the diff
ferences which grew out of the con-
vention in Baltimore. Clark was de-
feated not by treachery and double
dealings as has been charged by few
who are yet suffering from the mem
cries. but by his own forces and
friends, is my belief.
Woodrow Wilson is our candidate
for president and every loyal Demo-
crat should rally to his support and
forget the fact that they were Bryan
or Clark men before the Baltimore
convention; agree with Frank
Thomas Of Topeka on the one point,
at any rate, that the Democrats should
name some one else other than Hen
derson Martin as chairman of the state
committee, but 1 do not believe that
this should be accomplished by using
the defeat of Champ Clark as the full
crum-
above everything else we want
harmony and that is one of my reasons
for asking for the Craftsmanship as
have kept clear of all fractional differ
ences and believe that I can bring
about the harmony which all true
Democrats long for above all other
things, including personal preferments.
The man selected as chairman should
be chairman for the entire ticket and
not a partisan of any clique or faction.
This is our year to win and with con-
certed action and harmony I believe
Democracy will sweep the state and

Mrs. Ella Burton, who was can

Democratic ticket for state super
intendent of public instruction will
address today a combined meeting of
the Farmers Union and Grange to be

more will be present at this picnic
