TAFT CRITICISES GOVERNOR HARRISON San Francisco, Sept. 6.-^*William f{. Taft, in an address before the Jommonwealth club of California, oday severely criticised Gov. Gen. larrison's administration of the Philppines. Mr. Taft said that Gov. Harrison, vhom he designated as "a Tammany :ongressman of long standing," knew lothing about the Philippines, their jeople or their problems, and that lis first act in office was to place' himself under the virtual control of Man;el Quezon, a delegate to congress rom the islands, "a Filipino politician of not the highest standing in the Philippines." - .j"Anders BUYING low buying a stock of Ne1 ill be on sale s on or about embe / toying Publi me real Bargj SLOTHING, SHI1 COAT SUITS, II AND NOTIONS. ur store on Septemb< ining Announcement )ERS0N 0 "DAMAGED GOODS" , The attraction at the Opera House Thursday, Sept. 30th, will be "Damaged Goods," the most discussed drama which has been produced on the American stage in two decades, not only on account of the sensational feature attending its first production in New York City last Spring but also on account of the startling frankness with which it discusses a subject that has been taboo in* the theatres for * centuries. The very frankness of the dramatist however, disarms the criticisms of those who customarily attack the stage on account of the suggestiveness with which sex problems are Usually discussed. In "Damaged Goods" the author, Eugene Brieux, one of the forty immortals of the French Academy, takes up the weapons of truth against the shame of innuendo and against the great conspiracy of silence concerning the fundamental facts of life. The story of ."Damaged Goods" "is that of a young man who refuses to follow the advice of his. physician, who tells him that marriage for him in his present physical condition * would be a frightful crime against the woman he loves and the future generation. The result of the young man's sins are seen in the second act where amid the happiness which he /> is enjoying with his wife and baby girl there enters the dread spectre of hereditary disease. . But unlike Ibsen, Brieux is not a r pessimist. Having shown the con- , sequences of evil the French dramatist points a -way out of the difficulty , and inspires the spectators with a feeling that they nave it in tneir power to aid humanity by lending their influence toward the establishment of a custom which will' require a health certificate with every marriage license. , Richard Bennett, the produfeer of the play, has engaged a company- of exceptional merit to present "Damaged 6oods" in Abbeville. It is the same organization that supported him during the long run of the piece at the Fulton Theatre/New York, and which went with him to..,' Buffalo to present it before the inter- national Congress on School Hygiene at the request of the Congress. "Damaged Goods" has been described by the New York' Times as "The play which initiates a new epoch of civilization."?Adv. ' r ' 1 . JX' j '-XJ 1 ;? ." ' v on Co.
