Th people of Salem are perfectly willing to patronise and wel come any first-class attraction ox star. The fact of the matter la this: Salem people ob ct to being forced to Tr flrst-class prices for attraetlona which are not first-class. Ther decline to pay ll.SO for attractions which piay elsewuere ror 70 cents ana &. It is the custom of many producing man a rr in Mud on the road a Slav which has achieved a New York success, but for the road the producer will fill his company wnn Inferior people. Although cneapentng in eortouir. tli. manager does not lower th price, but Insists on maintaining the tax demanded for a real performance or com Dct.nt nlavers- There is nothing the matter with the peo ple of Palem. Any manager, the Bhuberts or others, whs will send good attractions a the right prices will receive the patronare of fsalem. So many poor attraetlona and cheap companies have been foteted upon Halem at prices Dejrona wrwal me eirmcnon deserves that the theatergoers of that city . : iuntnii hit BiimDlrinui. No recognized atar nor piay. properly presented, need fear a frost at fa lam. Poor companies at fancy prices are not wanted there any more tnan they are In Portland.
