Current Comment.
'Die Kansas City Star (Ind.)says;
‘‘Three million dollars may not bi
enough to build a Miss' uri capital
to hold a General Assembly of 17b
members. But ii would provide a
beautiful building for a sensible
com mission government. ’
The Montgomery Advertisei
(Dem.) says: ‘‘The voice of Joe
Hill Hall will now be heard from
one end of Georgia to the other
In addition to his voice, Mr. Hall
has brainsand an enviable record
as a statesman. He is going to
make some candidate for G >vernui
wish ho hadn’t run if the ‘watch
dog of the treasure’ isn’t success
ful.”
The Columbia State (Dem.)says:
•‘We gladly coaoede that col. Koo
vevelt is America’s William T-A’,
Ko ctasko, J .hn Bright, Arnold
son Winkelried, Aristide 0 , Hanoi
bid, Patrick Henry,
and nil other apostles of liberty
and freedom, rolled into one, and
shall therefore be constrained to
vote against him. Such a man is
entirely tpp good to be President.”
The Washington Post (Ind.)
says: “The old-fashioned lobbyist
went out when the publicity agent
carnein. Practically all the lob
bying done now is conducted by
press-agents A’orking away from
Washington. The new method is
not to bribe statesmen, but to cre
ate a public sentiment in their dis
tricts which will impel or compel
them to vote “this way or that.
Whatever Washington may have
been in the roiring fifties, there is
no cleaner capital on earth now
than this cne.”

The primary for the nomination
of county officers is drawing near.
The candidates are most earnestly
presenting their own merits; but
we regret to state that one or two
of them are guilty of circulating
falsehoods against one whose con
•dition should appeal to every man
or woman whose blood vessel can
truly be called a heart.

THE BATCELOR.
In “THE BATCHELOR Mr Fitch is said to bare dan* th*
jest work of hie life. The Sbubertu have given the piece an eloelient
■•etting and are sending it to the coast as one of their earls
door” attractions with the original Maxine Elliott Thratry
production. The piece has not been seen out of New York, wh'r* it
was first produced last spring and in Chicago, where it ran during the
part summer.
The story begins when the Batchelor, who thinks co« nutting
matrimony is one of the eight deadly sins, is beginning to hit nntind
of the wiusomentss of hie pretty blond stenographer. He baa taka*
her to the matinee several times and indulged her in an oeeaatn*al
'u icheon, but there his attentions have discieetly stopped. Thn
(range part of it all is, that the bach-dor, who is a Well Street broker
loes not realize his love for 'he girl until her young brother
ng that he must protect his against “The Perils of a great City" and
moreover the attent otis of a handsome looker, informs him that ha
must eit.ier propose to his sistet or suffer the c-msequenco. Thsaoaoa
of course, is entirely ridiculous but the batchelor, realizing that pa**
may think he has compiomised the girl, decides to propose. The ate*
n igr..pber in the meantime learns the part her brother eal.’a the ah*
rsgement off. Mr. Fitch, however, d >ef not allow matters to rest here
but Orings the lom rs together before the final curtain.
Mr. Paul Gilmore will appear at BAINBRIDGE in S»s 8.
