PROBLEM DRAMAS.

For instruction the drama has its
value, but also its limitations, for
argument it has mainly limitations.
The dramatist has to meet not real
opponents but straw men, and it is
part of his trick to make a sham
conflict seem real. By arranging the
situation to suit his purpose, and by
so drawing his characters so to ere
ate or ALLEVIATE sympathy, he works
powerfully upon the emotions. And
by eliminating or suppressing those
facts which are awkward to deal with
he may be convincing" as the phrase
goes, within the walls of the theater
and yet give but misleading guide
to action. 1t is not, for that matter,
the playwright's business to settle
concrete problems of action. The
drama can be made a powerful force
for morals, but not by answering
problems-Springfield (Mass.) Re
publican.

MOVIES DECLARED REFoRMERs

A social worker who has been
undertaking the colleges announces
at Cornell that drinking is decreas-
ing there and at other colleges. He
attributes this largely to the fact
that the students go to moving pic
ture shows in search of amusement
and recreation rather than to saloons.
The moving picture show has
proved its worth in that respect in
the large cities. There it has taken
recognized place in the poor mans
scheme of existence-and in that Of
other men not so poor. Saloons in
the congested districts have felt and
respect its competition. 1t appeals
particularly to the married man not
an habitual drunkard who attends
the performances with his family and
the young men aimlessly seeking in
expensive amusement. Its value in
reducing the drink habit and in off
setting the attractions of the cheap
and vicious dance halls cannot be
overestimated.-New York Tribune.

SOCIALIST VOTE IN NEW YORK

The Hartford Times sees in the
growth of the socialist vote one of
the striking and significant features
of the recent election in New York
City.
"Charles Edward Russell, who ran
as the socialist candidate for mayor,
represents what is known as the in
tellectual wing of the party. Time
has been when he and his fellows in
that thoughtful division have been
viewed with distaste by their more
emphatic associates, have been denied
nominations and, in even of their can
didacies, have failed to command
either the full vote or enthusiastic
support. But the 32,109 votes which
Mr.. Russell received in the greater
city marked the impressive increase
of 800 per cent over the vote given
Edwin F. Cassidy, the socialist candi-
date, at the last election in 1909. 1t
exceeded, too, the vote cast in the
city for Russell when he ran for gov
ernor last fall. On that occasion he
received $4,000 odd. And, finally, the
socialist vote is made even more sig
nificant by the fact that the total
vote in this city election Of 1913 fell
10000 short of that in the last.
The socialist vote cast for Russell
in Manhattan alone was equal to
that cast for Cassidy in all five bor-
oughs four years ago. Russell made
striking gains in practically every as
sembly district of the city. There
are socialists who predict that the
vote of 1917 will total 100000. What
is more, there are leaders of the older
parties who are inclined to believe
that they are not far from right.
When these things are considered in
connection with the fact that Eugene
v. Debs polled in the last election 4
vote of 90O,672, more than doubling
his vote of four years before, and
showing an increase of more than
900 per cent since 1900, it is impos-
sible not to feel that the political
expression of the socialistic prin-
ciple has become thing which must
be reckoned with, not in some vague
ly distant time, but in the immediate
future"

PROMINENT REPUBLICANS
GATHER IN NEW YORK CITY

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-What is ex-
pected to prove one of the most i'm
pressive and important gatherings in
the history of New York state Re-
publicanism, opened here oday at the
Waldorf with more than l.
00t Republican leaders, prominent in
state and national politics, present.
William Barnes, Jr., chairman of the
state Republican committee, called
the meeting on November 10. He
declared at that time that the men,
bers of the conference and not he,
will "boss things"
Progressive Republicans declared
TO-DAY that an effort will be made to
rio Republicanism of the Barnes
domination forever, they believe that
OILY through termination of boss-rule
and advocacy of real direct prim-
ary will the Republican party be able
to rehabilitate itself.
1t was pointed out today by Pro-
gressive leaders that the Republican
party has chance in a thousand TO
assume state leadership in view OF
the recent disclosures of graft and
corruption in Tammany, which for
Two years has had the reins. Barnes,
it was understood, has seen the trend
of events and will concede many of
the demands to be made by the Pro-
gressives. United States Senator
Elihu Root was scheduled to take an
active part in today's conference.

AFRICA DIAMOND BEDS

De Beers produce about 6 5,500,000
worth of diamonds annually, nearly
half the worlds output. They employ
1000 European and 1900 native
vorkmen. An army of spies assists
them to protect their vast wealth,
writes Kimberley correspondent of
the London Mirror. The Kaffirs are
confined to compounds, but the white
men are, relatively speaking, trusted,
returning to their homes daily and
revei being searched. The blacks
sign contracts for four months labor,
during which they are not allowed
outside the compounds except to go
t, their work.
The ground covered by the five
mines is about twenty square miles,
ali OF which is encircled by practical
ly unscalable barbed wire fences.
The open mines and depositing floors
are again inner-circled by similar
fences, and still again by barbed wire
entanglements. These entanglements
are illuminated at intervals by cleo
tic lights at night, and in addition
electric wires communicating with
alarm bells are attached to the wires
on both sides. They are arranged so
that the guardroom can tell immed-
lately from which portion of the
ground trespassers are attempting to
enter or leave. Also guards patrol
the entanglements by day and night.
Actually about 1000 miles of barbed
wire is used
Many have been the means employ
ed to get away with diamonds, since
swallowing by blacks has now be-
come futile owing to the system of
detention, under the closest supervis-
ion, for five days before Kaffirs are
allowed to go. The favorite method
now is for the thief to wrap his dia-
monds in rag or old tin, and, when
opportunity offers, throw it over the
barbed wire fences to a spot which
le will keep in mind until after his
term of engagement is completed.
Many stones in rags and tins, and
sometimes lying loose, have been
found outside the fences at various
times by guards and strangers,
Many have. got clear away from
Kimberley with their carefully placed
booty only to be caught later when
trying to sell the stones, for experts
can tell by the appearance of a batch
of diamonds in which district and act
ually which particular mine, the
stones have been found. Every legi-
innate holder Of an uncut diamond
must have permit to possess it.
Every diamond honestly found is reg
istered-size, shape, weight, color
and appearance. Heavy imprison-
ment is the penalty for nonposses-
sion of this permit.
Illicit diamond buying has made
many fortune in South Africa, and
e1en now, despite the army of De
Beers detectives trained to pose as
unscrupulous buyers to catch the un-
wary, De Beers alone, according to
their latest report, estimate their an
nual losses through leakage" at the
enormous figure of between $780,
900 and l500,000 annually.
Blacks are SO closely guarded that
the majority Of the thieves must pre-
sumably be trusted whitssl
