While perhaps some of the lending- charac ters lacked the confidence of profes- fdonnls, vet thoir simplicity of mnii nor nnd purity of voice eomo nearer Tjrrcsonliiii? Hubert's idea of tho libretto (linn many of tho ocr-eoiifi-denfc professional companies. Many peoplo bought tickets to help (ho high school along, regarding it ns n 'donation, but thoso who nttcuded were most agreeably disappointed and declare Hint the performance is as well worth n $1 as any that has ever been exhibited in Medf,ord at Hint pnec. Herbert Alford, as Sir Joseph Por- tcr, sustained his chnraclor through tho entire piny with the dignity Hint was intended by the author. Ho sjwke his Hues distinctly and sang his. music entirely satisfactorily. He has a good, clear, high baritone voice. Caroline Andrews; ns the captain's daughter, wns very good indeed. She has a splendid, clear soprano voice and sings with nu intelligence that would do credit to an older perfor mer. Dorothy Wicks, ns Little Butter cap, was right at home in the part. Her make-up wns good and she spoke heroines and sang her music with a confidence that showed both ability and training. Marie Kiferl made a crv sweet Cuuin Hebe. She acted nnd sang ns (hough she were entirely free from nny embarrassment. We don't won der that Sir Joseph was at Inst cap tivated by the cute lit He cousin. Seldeu Hill, as (he Boatswain, did his port like a jolly sailor. His song, "He is an Englishman" and his trio with WiNon and Andrews were splen didly done. Hill has a good baritone voice, with much promise. j Dick Doadoyc, Captain Corcoran and Ralph Rackstraw were in (he hands of experienced singers and nc tors, who fully came up to (he e.x iM'Ctatinns of (he audience. Much was expected from (hem nnd (hey did not disappoint. The chorus was n big hnlf of (he entertainment, The pretty girls and jolly sailors- formed a beautiful pic ture as a background for the princi pals." Arthur Sullivan did more pethups in writing for a chorus than nny oili er light opera composer and his mu sic 'was well handled by the high school opera company. Mr. H. II. Howell idiot cd skill ns a director. Ho handled his chorus nnd nrchchtrn in a thorough musicinu like manner. There was not a hitch from first to Ias(. The Pinafore scene was very nice. Mr. rUura U an artist and did some of his bet work in the painting of her majesty's ship. Pinafore. The production cost about $-100 and with the largo house of Inst night, and we hope a still larger one for tonight, put (he high school on tho right side of the ledger. They should be en couraged in (his kind of entertain nicnt. They give (he public tho worth of their money, and besides, it is a splendid musical drilling for (he school' Miss Eva McCJntehie nnd Iter n. ley of pieUy Jiltlc cousins was (he stiir feature of the play. They were encored time mid again. Wilson and Andrews nro produ cers (lint thoroughly understand their business. ' CINCINNATiraTNovT 19.

CONGRESSMAN'S WIFE LEADS CAMPAIGN FOR GOVERNMENT POSSESSION OF JEFFERSON HOMESTEAD IN VIRGINIA ALL INTERESTS PROTECTED (Continued from Page Ono) not want you to go beyond a certain basis of rates, but wc expect you to determine minimum rates and pre vent the railroads from exceeding reasonable minimum rates," This is tho plain duty of the commission, to obey the will of the people, and en force its laws and not show the peevish splprlt with which they havo met this bill ever since It made its appearance. Best of Cliancci To evade suppression by the courts tho bill linil to be dratted giving to the railroads certain privileges which was done, but at tho eanio time the privileges accorded in the bill were under restrant of the commission, so that by this combination of circum stances the bill has tho best of chances of passing a favorable court rovlow and being sustained and at tho same time all of the rights of the people arc fully safeguarded. To give a concrete example of the operation of the bill, the first class rate of 37 cents, as fixed by the rail raid commission between Portland and Medrord. will be taken. The scale of percentages given in section 1 of the bill will have to be applied to the 97 cent rate. This will leave he uti class rate as it now Is fixed under the percentage bases of tho commission, but It reduces the class A rata to 42 per cent of 97 cents, instead of 5 per cent as now, and would niako class A 10.71 cents, or a reduction of 8.26 cents per h un it r d The western classification now provides that Class A applies on agricultural implements in mixed carload lots, minimum 21,000 lbs. Tho mixed carload provision in the hill fixes tho maximum rate that can bo applied on this mixture, which contains articles taking less than carload rato of 1st class, at 57.23 III Hr 'HKnu g-" dflf-W-M .a HOME MISSIONS JW DISCUSSED GOLD DUST cleans like magic Gold Dust is moro than soap does moro -than soap.

Instances Cited Ou tho "other hand many of the agricultural Implements aro classi fied aB 3rd class In tho classification, and such articles In straight carload lots would take 59 per cent of the 3rd class rato with a 24,000 pound minimum. Tho 3rd class rato under tho bill's percentages will bo 67.30 cents. St per cent of this would bo 40.06 cents which would bo maximum rate under theso conditions. In groceries, tako sugar, a 1th less than carload classification. Tho minimum Is now carried at 36,000 pounds in the classification. The 4th class rato of a 97 cent first class rato will be 57.23 cents. For a 36, 000 minimum tho carload percentage Is 50 per cent. On this basis the carload rato on Bugur from Portland to Mcdford would ho 28. Ci cents as compared with a 49 cent rale as at present. Could Lower ItiitcM if the railroads wanted to make a 25 cent rato on sugar between Mcdford aud Portland It could do so without violating the provisions of tho bill, tho lossor rato Is the law ful rato. Tho bill reads tho carrier shall uot "domand, churgo, collect or recelvo a greater componsatloln for tho transportation of property In carload lots than tho following:" Then follows the percontago rules. It docs uot say theso percentages aro reasonable rates to be charged, but no greater rates can bo charged. Hut very few of tho farm com modities such as grain, live stock, hay, etc., forest products such as wood, lumbor, etc., soil products such as brick, sand, etc.; products of mlnos such as stone, oro, etc., aro carried or transported undor class rates, but under special rates. While the bill covers thoso articles as to the maximum rates that may bo chargod thereon, it doen not Inter foro nor cancel auy of these com modity rates or special rates that are less than tho maximum rates pre scribed In the bill. Te bJU dow not prohibit the rail- roads nor the commission from mak ing less than carload commodity rates, but it does restrain them from making such rates with the object of protecting ' centralized jobbing zones, ns the bill automatically Mcs tho carload rates ou the less than carload rates provided for the move ment of tho article. Tho bill does not advnnco rates, but It does reduce rates and all In tcrcstco. producer, manufacturer and consumer are protected by It s pro visions. xotici:.
