Some remarks have been made con.
cerning the failure of the F. E. Long
Co. to issue free ladies' tickets on
Monday night. 1t is becoming custo-
mary to not do so, and moreover, it
must be remembered that MIR. Long
has been to much extra expense to ap'
pear in Cresco, on account of being
compelled to build stage in the
Armory, have special electric light
wiring done, pay expressage on a
whole outfit of scenery, etc. We be-
lieve Mr.. Long is doing the best he
can in every way for Cresco, and is
fully justified in omitting the issue of
free ladies' tickets the first night.
