HPcg o. NV Heart"

The Majestic players will appear
In oliver Morosco's production of j.
Hartley Manners delightful comedy
of youth, Peg o. My Heart" at the
Majestic theatre for the remainder OF
this week.
The enormous success of this play
is undoubtedly due to its cleanliness
and absence from all discussion of
social sins, and the everlasting argu-
ments of capital and labor.
Peg is a selfish little human
being, with a child's naive ways and
a child's innocent outlook on life.
She is brought up, after the death of
her mother, by her father, and is
~transplanted from a humble home to
the palatial residence of her aristo-
cratic relatives in England. Her SIM
pie appearance shocks her British
cousins and aunt, and her unfami-
liarity with ways of the aristocratic
family leads to numerous comicai
situations. The play is brimfu or
clever wit and humor, interviewer
with an exquisite thread of o and
affection. An able cast has been de-
lighting the audience in Peg" at

Candidates and Platforms.

The other day Senator Harding, in
terrogated by constituent, gave his
views very frankly on the railroad
question. There is no question of
more Importance now under considera-
,ion. The senator is candidate for
his party's presidential nomination,
and if his interrogation thought that
on that account the senator might try
evasion or pussyfooting he was mis-
taken. The senator's reply in point
of directness was admirable.
A day or SO later Senator Borah
bitter ender, publicly interrogated
Gov. Lowden, another candidate for
the republican presidential nomina
tion, on the question of the peace
treaty, another very important ques
ton. The Illinois executive has re
Piled promptly and clearly. making
his attitude very plain toward the
question as it is now presented III the
Senate.
1t is to be hoped that the course of
these two men will be followed by
other presidential aspirants if theil
views are sought on any Of the ques
tions now in evidence 1t is a time
for plain speaking on the part OF
