Jkw Ulro Review
Wednesday, Janoaiy 6th, 1904.
ix in tk a
Officials of Chicago are trying to fix
the blame of the loss of life in the
Iroquois theatre on some person or
persons, and have arrested a number
of the theatre employes and workmen.
That blame rests upon the head of
some one there is no doubt but it lies
higher than the ones who have been
arrested. The construction of so costly
an edifice contrary to the ordinances
could not possibly have been completed
without the sanction of the city govern
ment and whether the theatre owners
or their house managers did their duty
or not, be ond it all lies the fact that
the city is guilty either of neglect or
of being bribed.
In either case it is the sacrifice of
Tiuman life on the altar of greed or
graft and Chicago officials have lately
been given a very onerous name for
the later. If it should develope that
the guilt of the whole thing is fixed
upon any one or more of these men
and it should be proven that they ha\e
compromised their honor for the few
dollars that allowed the theatre to be
finished without complying with the
law, what will it benefit. What satis
faction is the taking of the life and
liberty of one or a dozen men with
guilt stained souls and consciences
bereft of honor as a compensation for
600. The pure and sinless lite of any
one of those innocent dead children is
so superior to them all that authority
has no punishment adequate for their
crime. The honor of a city official
finds its supreme test in this calamity
and the mayor who has authority to
close the doors of all the theatres has
greater authority and larger right to
know if his laws are being obeyed.
Men may now see how awful it is to
have an inefficent if not corrupt set of
officials.
And that is precisely what the trust
combination does. It possesses special
privileges of one kind or another, and
sometimes of several kinds. These
special privileges prevent competition
in these lines. Having the field thus
restricted to themselves, the trust com
bination can limit output and exact
monopoly prices.
What does common sense suggest as
the remedy for this state of things?
What, indeed, but the abolition of
special privileges! It seems so simple
that the dullest must at once see it. It
lies so«lose that had it been a dog it
must long ago have bitten somebody.
Yet, amazing to say, this simple mat
ter is treated as if it was a profoundly
eomplex matter and only to be ap
proached with the greatest caution
and with careful examination by a
specially created government burea
of manufactures.
President Roosevelt has the masses
of the people behind him for direct and
radical action against the trust mo
nopolies. There can be no doubt of
that. Bat if he is to undertake such a
work he should not confuse what is
generally, but wrongfully, called cap
ital with that which is truly capital.
Capital is the product of labor, and
nothing can properly be called capital
that is not so produced. Capital is
matter so fashioned by labor to be
used by labor in the production of
wealth. This should not be confused
with money, for money is only a rep
resentative. It is not itself
it only represents capital.

If the anti-trust movement means
anything, it means a movement against
nonopoly, a step against special priv
ilege. Without this there can be no
reason for an anti-trust movement.
Without this there can be no justifica
tion whatever for a government's pry
ing into the operations of a single
man's private business or of the simi
lar business of a combination of men.
The justification for prying occurs
only when something other than pri
vate interst attaches to that business
that is, when the operations of that
business infringe the rights of others.

FEAST OF MERRY COMEDY
Trea Fo Those Who Se
Tamin of the Shrew.
'The
Brilliant Shakesperian Comedy
re a a 14th.
Distinguished Actor, Charles B.
^Hanford^JgVill Hea Company.
The past month has had very little
to offer New Ulm in the way of theatri
cal attractions but the coming four
weeks bid fair to make up for what
we have lost. The* first attraction on
the boards will be that eminent actor,
Mr. Charles B. Hanford, in Shake
speare's merry comedy, 'The Taming
of the Shrew,' who comes to the Turn
er Theatre Thursday evening, Janu
ary 14th. Seats for this exceptional
entertainment will be placed on sale at
the City Drug Store next Thursday
morniDg, December 7th, at 10 o'clock
and those who fail to avail themselves
of the first opportunity will have rea
son to regret it.
The following criticism of Mr. Han
ford's production is from the San
Francisco Call:
1'Charles
B. Hanford's short stay
here will be lamented by all lovers of
the drama, the real drama that comes
from the heart and the sensibilities,
and concerns itself with a sensitive ex
pression of the highest form of literary
art and the story of the most whimsi
cal vargaries of chana/iter. "The
Taming of the Shrew" has not had
such an excellent Petruchio since John
Drew was here with Ada Rehan, and
John Drew has a coldness and stiff
ness that are entirely foreign to Han
ford, who dashes through the comedy
at a racy pace, bubbling over with fun,
sparkling with the purest glee from
start to finish. His portrayal is
modern never for an instant does he
become pedantic and stilted through
the seductive snare of the rythm never
does he seem to emphasize the literary
quality of the lines at the expense of
their dramatic value. He acts out
every line of the play, and acts it with,
infinite nobility, versatility and extra
ordinary high spirits. In fact, Han
ford makes one like Petruchio—Petru
chio, the brutal, the uncompromising.
He makes him an extraordinarly good
fellow, doing what he does almost en
tirely for amusement, turning and
laughing merrily at his own joke. The
whole reading is magnetic and fluent,
a joy alike to the lover of classic
comedy, and to the plain man looking
simply for an evening's entertainment.
The audience at the California Theatre
last night laughed at all the jokes as
if they were the freshest froth of a new
farce.
"Mr. Hanford's presentation of
Corporal Haversack in the curtain
raiser, 'The Old Guard,' proves his
versatility unquestionably, for there
is a wide difference between the rollick
ing rapid humor of Petruchio's role
and the slow, painstaking tragedy of
'The Old Guard.' His art is careful
and true, and his pathos well balanced
and affecting.

any other actress who has portrayed
the role. She is evidently an actress
of experience, and brings intelligence
and judgment to her work,
"Hanford's company does exceed
ingly well in 'The Taming of the
Shrew.' The Baptista of Ferd. Hight
is well keyed and natural, and Robert
Lee Allen gives a positively buoyant
performance of Grumio, full of irre
sistible humor.
"Miss Rose Curry as Bianca has a
certain modesty and graceful girlish
ness. Irving Knight reads the role of
Lucentio with ready understanding,
and the whole company deserves praise
for the ease with which it has mastered
the lines, and the spirit it puts in the
comedy, following Hanford's own
charming example.''
Chas. B. Hanford as "Petruchlo.
It is expected that a large number
will come down from Sleepy Eye and
Springfield to see the play.
Following Mr. Hanford comes one
of New Uhn's favorites, Mr. Walker
Whiteside in his new play, "We Are
King." Mr. Whiteside, supported by
a competent company, will be seen at
the Turner Theatre on Monday, Janu
ary. 25th, and there is little doubt but
that the usual crowded house which
always greets this distinguished actor
in this city will be in evidence on the
occasion of his third visit in his latest
success.
"We Are King" is a comedy from
the pen of Lieut. Gordon Kean and is
said to be superior to anything, aside
from the classic plays, which Mr.
Whiteside has yet produced. The
company supporting Mr. Whiteside
this season is of unusual strength.

Dan Cupid worked full time in
Brown county last year and he has

Clerk of Court John Larson's matri
monial register shows that 173 licenses
were issued during the twelve months
and, therefore, 346 young people were

banner month, when thirty-six couples
took out permits. May came second
with eighteen and December won the
booby with a stingy seven.
Springfield Hen Enthusiastic.
Bergt. Edwin Juni of Company A,
went to Springfield last week with
twenty Krag-Jorgensen rifles for the
members of the Springfield section and
he reports that the boys in the western
end of the county are very enthusiastic
over militia matters. They have taken
in eight recruits and now have a
section of about thirty-five. A new
armory has been secured and they now
have a room large enough for drill
purposes.
