STEAMSHIP AUDITOR
 MAKES PLEA FOR CLOSER HARMONY AMONG ALASKANS

"Co-operation between the Shippe S of Alaska and the steamship compan' ies, to work together instead of pull
 ing apart, and efforts directed again st the government to get it to ta%e it's strangle hold from the northland, arc needed to stop the falling off e population and to make the Territory 20 ahead" declares travelling aud'to' C. $. Butler, in Seward during tEc stay of the Admiral Watson. Mr. Bu,- Ter is now on a trip along the coaSc, checked up the local office and thea proceeded to the westward on the Ad- miral Watson, and returned last nighE going to Seattle.
 Those AlaSkans," he continued, "who criticised the pioneer steamship companies should acQuaint them selves with the facts. Freight ant passenger rates today between San Francisco and Seattle are higher than they are between Seattle and Alaskan points, where the distance IS less. in some instances, where the danul. are not so great and where there iS bigger volume of business oth ways. Our company has not made any money in the Alaskan bus nos ,og several years, excepting Cor one season. Prices for fuel oil and for longShoying and labor have morH than doubled, the advances being more than that of the rates.
 However the steamship com panies are expected to maintain thelr service whether business offers O. not. Instead of appointing Terri torial Shipping Board at the expenSG of the Territory to endeavor to get competing lines, the same money cX- pended in cooperation with the pio- neer lines already h business and bringing about closer relationship between the shippers and the steam ship companies, would prove of sonc practical benefit to the people. The margin of profit on business handled by the steamship companies will stand comparison with the margin of prof: of any business houses in or out cf Seattle. But it seems the popular thing to do to make the steamship companies the goat
 "Co-operation should be extended to the point that actual facts could be gotten before Congress and tho people of what is the matter with Alaska, why it's great resources are kept tied up, why it is not gaining in with vew of getting gov ernmental redtape and interlockin,7 federal authority restrictions removed and then with the territory going ahead as it should develop, every orc would become so prosperous that they would forget to criticise."

EMPRESS PRESENTS
DRAMATIC PLAY OF
INDIAN GIRL SL|FE
Heart Of Wetona" Wins Ap-
prevail First Night Crowd
Caroline Edwards, Clisbee
and Sullivan Stars.

While not quite up to the standard
set by former productions of that COM
pany. 1.-THE Heart of Wetona," as pre-
sensed by the Empress stock company
Thursday evening at the Empress the
atre at the opening performance of
their weekend enga cement won the
approval of the first night audience
The only fault with the play, If it
has one, is that it is too tensely dra-
matte, especially for an audience that
has been given such delightful COM
edies as the Empress patrons have
been getting. At some of the most
tragic moments the audience would get
a funny streak and there would be an
outburst of laughter
The players accepted these demon
STATIONS with good grace, and car
ried through their parts with great en-
thusiasm.
Ed Clisbee in his usual artistic man
ner handles the difficult part Of the
Indian agent who matries the betrayed
In6ian gicl to save her from being
forced to marry the man who betrayed
her.
The wedding is performed on the
stage, and much of the realistic SOL
emnity of the ceremony is due to the
impersonation of a minister given by
Ian Ndlldct, WHO ifldkeS MS i1Tst ap
pearance i'm the Empress cast.
"Wetona" is played by Caroline Ed
wards. She evidences real skill in her
handling of the difficult broken Eng
fish of the Comanche Indian.
Billy Maylon appears as Comanche
Jack, cowboy, and injects some com
edy into the plot.
Fred Sullivan handles the extremely
difficult part of "Quannah," the In
dian chief whose daughter is involved
in the delicate situations in the play
sullivan has the task of expressing ar
Indians dramatic emotions in Eng
| fish. Sometimes the English langua &c
was futile for the odcasion-that is. as
| 1t was used by the author-and that's
what made the audience laugh.
THE Heart of Wetona' will be pre-
| scented again this evening, at matinee

AMERICAN
SOPRANO SINGER At
THE P|NNEY TONIGHT
Lucy Gates, Girl Who Defied
Kaiser's Edict and Came
Home, Appears Before Boise
Audience First Time.

Lucy Gates, the leading American
coloratura soprano, will sing this ev
ening at the Pinney theatre under the
auspices of the Boise Artists Course
o.nmittee.
Miss Gates is an American girl who
has risen to fame within the last three
years She first gained distinction
when she substituted on program for
CALI Curci, and was accorded a re-
ception greater than any ever before
given an American singer.
The war gave her her opportunity to
prove that Americans will give rec
ognition to artists of their own cOun-
try. She was In Germany at the out
break of the war, and was so success
full in two Of the leading operas there,
as well as in Berne, Vienna, Hamburg
and other musical centers, that she
was sent a request by Managers Pitt
and Higgins of Covent Garden, Lon
don, to appear q t their house. The sell
fish Germans managing her musical
career in that country, did not tell her
of these offers.
Then the war broke out Miss Gates
decided to come home-to the United
States. The kaiser issued his imperial
edict that no foreigners were to leave
Germany. Miss Gates decided that
since she had made UP her mind to
come before the edict was issued, she
| would come. So she defied his imper-
ial majesty. the kaiser. and came home.
Since her arrival she has been work
| ing hard to establish place for Amer
lean singers in their own country, and
to down the old idea that one had to
study in Germany before one could
think of taking up the time of an
American audience.
