The J.. Willard Bayley Stock CONF
pany opens three nights engage
ment at the opera house, starting on
Sunday, Feb. Is. The BayIey COM
pany is one of the very few roper
tOire companies using plays of very
late issue, with the 1915 copyright at
tached. The opening play, ''The Laws
of God and Man," is typical of the
unusual strength found in plays of
modern times, and by famous play
rights, who have discovered that the
public today demands several times
more reality and genuine strength
than before the advent of motion pic
lures, which seriously affected all
stage attractions.
1t is the tremendous power of
speech and elOcutiOn revealed in plays
OF the above calibre that are bring
ing the stage again into its own: and
the local management is going out Of
the usual course, when they person
ally ask the public to consider this
attraction away and above anything
seen here in months at any price.
The Bayley company comes to us with
an enViabIe record of six weeks at
Racine, four weeks at BelOit and eight
at GAINESVILLE. The company carries
all special scenery for each production.
No house scenery at all will be shown
during the local engagement. Special
lighting effects and properties will al
so be carried. Vaudeville of the up
tO-date brand, will be offered between
acts. This department. is headed by
COulthard and Devote, in refined sing
ing and dancing speciaItieS. w. V.
Goodwin in comedy singing and dane
ing numbers.
Mr.. j. Willard Bayley will sing
some new ballads, as well as some of
his old favOrites, and "UDONI," the
Man of Mystery, will offer an act as
mystifying as it is entertaining.

VAIL.

Mr.. Strand brought home with HIM
some upper Wisconsin seed corn,

revolution farming methods
there.

Newspaper Annovances

Here Is something you might stick
IN your hatband: eff l owned a news
paper, what I would say in it lust
now would be plenty" remarked a
man the other day, says the Marion
CO.( Tribune in a recent editorial.
He was invited to write what he
wanted to say, with assurance that it
would be printed if his signature &C
cOmpanied it.
der remarking that cit would hurt his
business" There are a lot of people
willing, anxious in fact, for things to
be said IN the newspaper providing
thew hurt the business of somebody
What newspaper has not had this
very same experience with this very
same yellow tadpole of a citizen who
splutters and splutters about what
ought to be printed in anewspaper
and what ought to be omitted? And
yet when you invite the coward to be
responsible for the manuscript he
wants you TO publish, he whines like
a sick dog, skulks behind this pretext
and that, and wObbles out of the Of
fee with crouch.
That is not all. He writes in that
he will stop his paper if you don't
print what he himself won't sign. Yet
If you were to suggest to him that
his threat TO stop the paper is pure
and simple coersiOn through a threat
of blackmail he would yowl like a
tomcat with its tail stepped on
The fellow who threatens to stop
his paper IS trying to do to the news
paper in a small way the very thing
that he would condemn as a criminal
in corporation that tried in any
way to throttle the freedom of the
press Threatening to stop the paper
is an attempt of intimidation.
But 1t IS worse than that Threat
ening to stop the paper is a confession
of bigOted intolerance on the part
of the delinquent subscriber that
pulls such q bone, for it means that
he does not want the paper to have
