Democrats Adopt
Goddess of Liberty
AS Party Emblem

st. Louis, Mo. Sept. 25.-The
Goddess of Liberty Sunday was
adopted unanimously by the executive
committee Of the democratic state ON
mittee as the emblem of the democratic
party in Missouri, succeeding the
donkey. which has served the demo
cratic party as its emblem for many
years.
Members Of the committee said the
change was made because the donkey
as an emblem was neither artistic nor
dignified.
Under the decision reached by the
committee, the Goddess of Liberty will
displace the donkey upon the demo-
cratic ballot in the November election.

were equally patriotic and liberty low
ing as the majority on the other. They
differed merely in their definition of lib

on thinking as all the colonists had
thought ever since they landed in America,
that their liberty lay in upholdng their
rights as Englishmen. The nationalists
thought their liberty lay in setting up a
government of their OWL Each side called
the other side traitor.
Another thing no one told us in school
was that these loyalists and nationalsts
were not two different kinds of men, set
definitely apart from each other by. op-
posing interests. They were neighbor
against neighbor, friend against friend, one
member of the family against another
member of the family. Ben F'ranklin's son
was loyalist, working against the cause
for which his father was striving: RAN
dolph of Virginia saw his father driven
into exile by the cause he eagerly lef:
home to join And the third thing we
were not taught is even more important
still One cannot say that even the
greater number of people in America were
those whom we now call patriots 1t is
possible that the majority were loyalsts
and that the minority were simply more
strong willed and lore energetic and better
organized. But wherever the patriots
grew powerful enough to do so they
silenced the loyalists or drove them out of
the country.
This was not wise or right, but perhaps
it was necessary. At least when it was
matter of life or death you cannot blame
them. But we live at different time, and
we see now that we at any rate have no
right to blame the loyalists for remaining

true to their convictions. For they were
convictions which even the greatest
patriots shared at the beginning. The very
war itself did not begin as a war for sepa-
ration. when first took command of the
Continental army wrote George Wash
ington, Il abhorred the idea of Indepen-
dence." Thomas Jefferson and Ben Frank
lin felt the same way. The first Continental
Congress demanded only representation in
return for taxation; otherwise it was as
loyal to England as England itself could
have wished. 1t was rushed into changing
its mind only by subsequent events How
ever natural therefore. it was not fair for
one man at the time to call another a
traitor merely because he had now given
up an idea which the other man wanted to
hold on to- The Declaration of Indepen-
dence itself was passed by Congress only
with difficulty, and ii came as a startling
surprise to most people in the country.
About the Constitution and the articles
which should compose it there was a SINH
lar clash of opinion between neighbors and
brothers. and a hurting back and forth of
the ugly word traitor" Though the sec
ond difference of opinion was very violent
it did not at the time lead to the bitter
civil war which the other difference had
resulted in. But 1t was this same differ
ence which seventy-fve years later the
North and the South fought out on the
battlefield. Nor is it ended yet. Even at
this very moment some of the States of
our country are again raising the question
which people just after the Revolution
were quarreling about with such angry
words. In way. it was the same question
as the one they had just been fighting
about with gun and bayonet. Shall we be
a loyal part of an empire or shall we be
home rulers? So you see. it is very unfair
of us to call the loyalists traitors because

~ NE may write the history of a coun-
try and say very little about it's

its literature without saying a good deal
about its history. For the literature of a
people is the expression of their life That
is why you will find that this chapter, de.

The thing of chief Importance, as it
seems to us, about the War for Inde-
went to school. 1t was very unfortunate
because it allowed us to grow up with
very wrong ideas. Did you know that the
only difference between a rebellion and a
revolution is that the one fails and the
other succeeds? When a man loses, a fu-
ture generation says he was a rebel and
although his cause may have been right
against what he called tyranny. When
he wins. future generation says that he
took the right method and that he was a
patriot. But that future generation is
very unjust if it assumes that the first
man loved his country any less than the
second man. That is what we were not
taught when we went to school, and it
was a long time before we found out how
unjust our judgments lad been about the
people of the Revolutio nary period and
what false notion we had of the whole
state of affairs then.
First of all, we were unjust to the
loyalists, the Americans who wanted to re-
main loyal to England. Nobody told us

VII. and others.
The memoirs refer humorously to our
German visit in 1885. Mr.. Drew asserts
that "this was the first and only time
that an entire American company visited
Germany" I am not sure that this is
correct. An "Uncle Toms Cabin" COM
pany was taken abroad by Jarrett and
Palmer in the 70's or early sos and
played some engagements in Germany
However, perhaps "Uncle Toms Cabin"
with its blood hounds, donkeys, Jubilee
singers and triplicate "Marks's" should be
classified as a circus.

this German trip before we left New York

to make his first acquaintance with the
language and I to revive my memory of
an almost-forgotten grammar school course
in German that I had gone through at
the age Of twelve or thirteen.
It cannot be said that the performance
of German plays adapted into English and
presented by an American company during
the hot nights of August appealed strongly
to the publics of Hamburg and Berlin.
Certain of the English-speaking visitors
in the cities attended the performances
and a few handfuls of bewildered Germans
At the Thalia Theater in Hamburg and
the Wallner Theater in Berlin dressers
were provided for us. Drew speaks of his

says: "the dresser who looked after me

coined it and so would many of my pro-

mercialism and trade are not the means of
obtaining the highest rewards of the the
ater.
Quite worth the quoting here is his cur
tain speech on the night Of his debut as
Frohman star, the ending of which ran:
II feel that this great greeting might not
have been for me had it not been for one
who from the beginning of my career has
watched and guided my steps, smoothing
the way to success for me and encourag-
ing me in moments of trial and discour-
agement, and, in fine, striving to make me
worthy of this honor tonight.
II feel, too, that this poor and halting
tribute at the least is little to offer after
the years of care and trouble he has
slowed on me, but it is from the heart
offer it before you, his friends as we'll as
mine. I see I need not name him, my
friend and preceptor. Mr.. Augustin Daily"
The memoirs leave the final impression
with the reader of a companionship with
a kindly, cultured gentleman, one quick to
observe, delightful raconteur, an artist to
whom the theater has always appealed as
high and dignifed calling, whose tradi-
tions are held in respect.
Many reproductions of old portraits,
scenes from plays and theater programmes
adorn the attractive volume, and among
the latter is one of Mrs. Drew's Arch
Street Theater, whose company, her son
assures us, We'd in excellence with that OF
the celebrated Wallack company of New
York and we read thereon with vast envy
that the price of orchestra seats was rs
cents. And there were no agencies and
spectators at that time in Philadelphia
There is a commendation of the book
and it's author in the Foreword by Booth
Harrington which is cordial and charac-
teristically Tarkingtonian and in which
he says nice things about Drew's PetrucIio.
The book evokes in me sense of graft
tude that the representative of one Of
our great theatrical families, which include
the Booths the Davenports, the Wallacks
and the Jeffersons, whose own distin-
guished performances have done much for
the dignity and woEth of the American
stage, should have given US this record
as a perpetual memory. The book should
be found on every theatrical five foot
shelf.
The New York herald., 1922-11-05

critics, he says: MANY of the critics
thought there was too much horse play;
they were shocked when Katherine boxed
Petruchio's ears. They found too much
violence in the playing. Then, too. the play
was coarse and fiat and dull"
There is a charming tale of Joseph JEFF
ferson illustrating the beneficent influence
of humility. In the first flush of his sue
cess as Rip Van Winkle, he told Drew, he
thought himself fairly important and that
everybody knew about it.
"At the very least he felt that had put
Washington Irving on the map with this
Boucicault version of Rip"
One night after the theater as he was
going to his room in the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, a stockily built man with a grizzled
beard got into the elevator.
Are you playing in town now, Mr. JEFF
ferson?" he asked
Jefferson, as he replied in the affirmative,
rather pitied the man for his ignorance
and his total lack of understanding at what
was going on in the world. What a simple
ton he must be who didn't know that Rip
was having a record run!
When the man reached his floor and got
out Jefferson asked the elevator boy who
was that?"
Why" said the boy. in his turn plying
Jefferson for his ignorance, That's General
Grant"
The later chapters lack something of the
interest Of the earlier parts of the book,
mainly because they deal with events and
productions more or less familiar to every
one and because they are record of the
annual appearance of Mr.. Drew in new
plays. The more or less commercialized
theater of to-day has obliterated much of
the charm of the hard working theater
of tradition. Now the particular ques-
ton about any play is not of its artistic
value, but as to whether it shall have
two years run or go to the storehouse a
week after production.
1 could wish that Mr.. Drew had given
us more of himself as an artist. He has
told what others thought of his work, but it
would have been instructive to the younger
generation of actors if this noted player
had told something of his methods, his
knowledge of comedy effect, of balance
control and in short, of the art of acting
as he applied it unerringly to his various
characters. Perhaps such an exposition
