THEN and NOW

Today the theatrical profession is a
huge industry in which more than
sI00. 800 9Go is invested There are in
the United States over 1000 theaters,
NOT counting the 10000 or more moving
picture theaters. or circuses. and halls
for general entertainment 1t has been
estimated that during a good theatrical
year there are more than 1000 actors
and actresses declaiming, trilling ana
dancing before the American people.
One of the modern features OF the pro-
fession is the travelling company, Of
which there are nearly 1000. The esti-
mated value Of the 1000 theaters is
nearly $4,000 900 while it requires
s20.oeo,oo9 annually To pay the play
ers' salaries. About $50 1000, 600 is dis

ducing the plays. Today. as a class,
actors and actresses are no longer gem
orally considered pariahs of society.
The most exclusive society circles
have been opened to admit them, and
there are instances where men and
women of noble birth have given their
social station for a career on the stage.
Even ciergymen have deserted their
puipits for the boards. while actors
have abandoned the sr,et-light 20 take

Iowa Senator Does Not See Practice OF
Economy by Democrats.
Washington, Sept. 5.-Senator Ken
yon. in a speech IN the senate yester-
day afternoon against the rivers and
harbors pork harrel measure sharply
reflected on the failure of the presi
dent in his message TO congress, call
ing for war taxes. TO say anything or
the subject of economy Referring u
the situation as psychological, sena-
tor Kenyon said that the president In
calling for more taxes had overlooked
the Baltimore platform and forgotten
to mention the subject Of economy in
expenditures.
TT was probably thru !nadver1ance
said Senator Kenyon Il had sup
posed when I went over to hear the
message that the president would have
something to say on economy and
would show how congress might save
about the amount OF the deficit by not
passing the rivers and harbors bill
Senator Kenyon then pointed out
that the president was asking for
500 ,0O0. 900 more in revenue and thai
the rivers and harbors bill for the
present and future contemplated ex-
enditures Of about that sum.
He asked Senator Burton Y he did
mot think the presidents failure &c
talk economy was an oversight. and
SENATOR Burton thought it must have
been an oversight
Calling the situation Amazing
Senator Kenyon then assailed vigor-
ously the idea of congress being asked
60 raise war taxes to meet such ex-
penditures as proposed by this bill.

! In view of these things" said the
Iowa senator. Il believed when the sec
ton was before the committee. and l
now believe, that we shall reach those
/! practices which ought to be arrested,
and restore to business that competition
which ought to be maintained. more

provision of the commission bill. That
has nothing to do with the question of
a criminal penalty. If congress desires
to do so it can attach a criminal PEN
atty to the unfair competition section
of the commission bill; it can attach
1t here. 1t can declare that anyone
guilty of unfair competition shall be
punished by fine or imprisonment or
both, and the penalty can be made just
as severe as in. the judgment of the
senate it ought to be made, in order to
reach those offenders against good
morals in business"
