COBURN'S MINSTRELS.
Our local manager, Mr.. Perry
Mackay. as shown imself real hus-
Ter by winning out over several com
oetitors in securing the Coburn Minis
trels. This organization has grown
since its appearance and enlarged
until it cannot afford to make the
smaller towns, but Mr.. Mackay,
learning the company had an open
night kept tn etelegraph wires hot
until he secured the date of Satur-
day March IS. The big show will ap-
pear at the Lancaster Opera House.
The Augusta Cronicle, under re-
cent date, had the following to say
Of the show:
"P. A. Coburn's minstrels played
to two packed houses yesterday at
the Grand.
Augusta is a minstrel-loving town
and always appreciates a good show.
"Coburn certainly has good
show this year The voices are all
good. Reese Prosser was in better
voice than for some years past, and
drew many encores both afternoon
and night. His rendition of Dear
old Girl by special request was es-
pecially fine.
Tommy Donnelly is a time-hon-
ored favorite in Augusta, and was
in fine form yesterday.
"One Of the best features OF the
SHOW was the dancing of Boni Mack
VINO is one of the finest female i'm
personators on the stage and who did
some very graceful dancing also.
me three Petits are wonderful
acrobats and contortionists
The comedy work of the com
pany is chiefly in the capable hands
OF Charlie Gano and Tommy Don
nelly and their little skit at the close
OF the first act was especially clever.
Altogether, Coburn has a good.
clean minstrel show, and will ALWAYS
receive cordial welcome in Au-
gusta."

The seaman's law remains on the
statute book unchanged, even though
1t has already driven the American flag
from the Pacific ocean. Then the dep''
ocrats put on the statute books law
permitting any old tub that tioated the
sea to come under American registry
and the American flag. To accomplish
this, they waived inspection laws, ad-
mltted foreign ships that could not
pass inspection, and gave them privil-
eyes denied to American vessels. They
permitted foreign officers to command
these ships, even though at the time
hundreds of American mariners re-
NAMED idle in our coast cities. Now
the democratic shipping bill will do its
mite toward discoureging any funda.
mental sound recreation of the Amer
ioau merchant marine.

RUBLEE NOT A REPUBLICAN

RUBLEE NOT A REPUBLICAN
Journeying to North Carolina at the
public expense to help celebrate the
anniversary Of the Mecklenborg Dec
laration, the President Of the United
States saw at to make some partisan
speeches en- route. In the course of his
remarks he criticised the Republican
party and It's leaders and chided them
for not rushing to assist him when he
desired to appoint forward looking
Republican to Office.
Most people think that the president
was referring to the case Of George
Rublee of Wisconsin, New Hampshire
and New York. MIR. Rublee was named
rs one of the Federal Trade Commis-
sioners and the Senate refused to con-
firm him.
Mr.. Wilson no doubt meant kindly
by Mr.. Rublee when he referred to him
as Republican, but We think Rublee
himself would be the first to resent
such designation of his political affiliat
ions. Rublee may have voted the
Republican ticket but he has not done
so for more than five years, we are
sure. He supported the Progressive
party in 1912. In 1914, he labored
valiantly for the success of the chief
candidate on the Democratic ticket in
New Hampshire. He has been quoted,
without denial, as saying that II the
Proeressives could not win this year
he would join the Democratic party.
Accordingly, any sympathy for Rublee
on the ground Of his Republicanism
whether forwsrd-looking, backward.
looking or cross-eyed, is wasted. To
call him Republican is misrepre.en.

Makes IMPORTANT DECISION
Case of Langlie and Others Against
Mottner Decided for Plaintiffs.

The case of Olaf Langlie and others
against Fred Mottner, Robert j.
Armstrong and Daisy l.. Armstrong,
which was submitted to the district
court on a stipulation at the last
term, has been decided by Judge R.
N. Dunn in favor of the plaintiffs,
according to word received last week
by Bottum & Wilson, the attorneys
for the plaintiffs. The action in
volved foreclosure of mechanics liens
aggregating nearly 81 100000 on logs
and ties near Naples. At the time
the work was done, Mr.. Mother
owned the land under a tax deed, but
the work was stopped by an in
junction secured by the defendants,
Mr.. and Mrs. Armstrong, who orig
inally owned the land, it being held
that Mr.. Mottner's title was de-
fective. Mr.. and Mrs. Armstrong
represented by f. W. Wheelan OF
Standpoint, claimed that the liens
were not good by reason of Mr.. Mot
tner's defective title. The plaintiffs
were the laborers who had cut the
logs and ties.
The ruling of Judge Dunn in this
matter is of great interest to labor
ing men in this state, as it determines
that woodsmen are entitled to liens
for their labor even though theil
employers title to the land may be
clouded
