Society
(From tho Knnsas City Times.)
Alien Doono In tho title rolo ot
Joseph Murphy's old Irish piny,
"Kerry Gow," mndo a big hit nt tho
Auditorium thontor yesterday. Tho
plot of "Kerry Gow" Is tho old tain
ot the grasping landlord who holds
(Gow la Irish for blacksmith), a
bright, Hkeablo follow. Thoro Is no
bloodshed Und thoro are no heavy
situations that leave tho audience
gasping' and weak whon tho horo
thwarts tho vllllnn. Mnry Fortuity
ns Nora Drew, tho girl whom Dan
will marry In a few days after tho
last act onds, was good. Tho love
eenoo botwocn Nora and Dan, which
woro froqiiont, were novor overdone.
A feature of tho play Is tho scono
In tho blacksmith shop, whore Kerry
Gow makes a horseshoe at tho blaz
ing forgo and shoes tho vllllan's
horso, which may win tho raco on
wldch all tho hopes ot tho Drows aro
staked, "as woll as though It woro
the horso of my host frlond." Tho
news of tho rnco Is brought to the
Drews by carrier pigeons, which fly
in and llsht on tho dovecote.
Mr. Doono won tho nudlcnco In tho
tho mortgago on tho farm and will
not relcat unless tho poor but honest
father consults to force his daughter;
to marrv the- villainous mortgage
holder This melodramatic plot Is
treated In a refreshing way with thn
oft pedal on tho "melo." Tho situa
tions aro good and Alton Doono
raakei Dan O'Hnrn. tho Kerry Gow
first net with Ills love song, "Sweet
Noruh Drew " E. II. English was
a good frlond of tho lovers us Ray'
tuond Drew. J. J. Hyland mndo tho
vidian a very probablo character; ho
novor ranted and his villlanles woro
not tho usual propostoroiiB horrors
commlttod by tho ordinary bad man
Tho company gavo good support.

"Gontlemon: I shall not burden
you with a lensthy. mcosage, but
shall try to got down to tho meat of
what I have to Bay In n few simple
words, feollng suro that they aro di
rected to earnest mon who hnve
como to thl3 council with tho slnlgo
purpose ot tho city's wolfnro at
heart.
"Doforo proceeding, I want to pny
my respects to tho outgoing adminis
tration. Salem hns taken a long
stride forward In civic progress un-
dor my predecessor. Wo havo ac
complished much toward bottor
streets, bottor bridges, bettor parks,
and aro developing somo or tlto
characteristics" to which our slzo and
lmportnnco ns a city entitle us.
"You and I, gontlomon, In coming
to this council, havo assumed public
burdens which call for prlvato sacri
fice on our part. Wo surely ha,vo
not como hero for tho salary; nor
for political advantngo, for It Is hard
to two whoro any man can count
hlmsplf fortunnte, politically, by get
ting Into a council. Wo don't come
here for prlvato gain, for certainly
no honorable mnn would expect such
n thin. Then, gentlemen, If those
things are true, thoro Is ono thing
wo must do In order to accomplish
tho bet results for our city 'and that
Is to have faith In onch other; have
faith In each other as tho pcoplo
havo shown tholr faith In us, anil in
this spirit, gentlomon, lot us work to
gether, not ns partisans, but as ear
nest servants of tho city, having In
mind only thnt wo otand upon tho
common ground of good citizenship.
"in my rotations with tho council
I shall know no Republican or Dem
ocrat. I shnll bo guided by no dic
tates of party policy or factional
preferences. Tho mnn who opposes
my vlows and my policies Is Just as
good as any othor mnn, so long ns ho
Is honest In his purposes.
In all wo do let its Invito tho clos
est scrutiny of tho pcoplo of Salem
Wo will mnko mistakes; all men of
firm nnd upright endeavor do, nnd
thorofo.ro lot us wolcomo honest crit
icism. Tho volco of tho chronic crlt
lo will also bo heard, but wo may
tako satisfaction In tho knowledge
thnt ho cannot mnko mistakes bo-
cause he rnroly ovor does anything
but criticise. TUo salvation ot tno
nitv lies not In tho hnnds of tho critic
but In tho hands of thoso who, how-
ovor Imperfectly, do tho work to bo
done.
"I wnnt to say first, that I favor
tho creation of a Chnrtor Board to
rovlso our charter and submit It to
a vote ot tho pooplo nt nn early dato.
With duo respect to tho gontlomon
who drow tip that instrument, I bo
iiovo It adheres too much to tho orig
inal document, nnd, nsldo from somo
ambiguities, does not give us a won
balanced Kovernmont. I will tako
up a few features of tho chartor as
I approach thorn under tho proper
heads, but shall not bo Into detail.
"Tho provisions of our city chartor
limiting tho city tax levy to ton
mills and road tax to ono nnd one
half mills wero made whon tho cus
tom of assessing proporty nt ono
thlrd its valuo was woll established
in Marlon county, but now, since our
assessor has wlsoly seen fit to comply
with tho law and place a full valua
tion on all property, I bollevo tho
limit on tho city tax levy should bo
cut down accordingly. Full valua
tion should mean low levy and tho
tax payors ought to bo guaranteed
as much. I bollevo our chartor
should bo amonded reducing tho lim
it for city taxes from ten mills to
about 3H mills and city road tax
from 1H mills to about 0-10 of one
mill. If the old limit was right un
dor tho old system, tho limit I sug
gest would not bo wrong under tho
now.
I want to coneratulato tho admin
istration of my predecessor on its
work for pormanon pavements iti
tho business district and for better
streets generally. This has boen a
crying need for years, and I think a
good share of our proporty owners
have como to realize that good
streets aro not only a good Invest
ment for themselves, but a splendid
advertisement for the city as well.
"Our charter seems to have con
flicting provisions in reference to tho
method of .taxing costs for perma
nent street improvement. Section 0,
paragraph 14, says tho cost shall be
at the "exponsa of adjacent property
holders, or at tho general expense of
