great sensation in Augusta. We

the political atmosphere and make
Augusta good place.

those who have strong constitutions,
but it is doubly trying to thope who
are weak and delicate, or who have

heated houses. The system should
be kept strengthened and toned up

dearly for their report in this case.

REPUBLICAN CONFESSIONS.

1t is dangerous for the Republi-
can party to allow one of it's old Of
fee holders to be defeated for re-
election, for he Immediately begins
to confess how fraudulent are its
pretenses. Mr.. Ingalls, startled the
country and chagrined his party the
other day by explaining quite coolly
that the republican party's solitude
about negro suffrage was purely for
political purposes. Onslaughts on
the South, he explained, had been
threatened in order to keep
the Republican party solid, and pre-
vent a union of the West and the
South in common political action
against Eastern interests. This was
quite a severe blow to the Republi-
can pretense ofphilanthropic regard
for the negro and exceeding rever-
ence tor the fifteenth amendment.
They had simply used the negro for
party purposes.
This confession by Mr.. Ingalls,
was surprise to the country. which
had thought him reasonably honest
in his bitterly partisan course. But
a greater surprise awaited it in a
confession by ex-senator Blair. This
gentlemen, in a recent interview,
among other things, said:
II don't want the Chinese govern
ment to think that l have antago-
nized them in any more than in a
Pickwickian sense. We had to get
the vote Of the Pacific slope, and we
did,"
Everybody thought Blair an hon
est fanatic, crank, an intolerable
boIe-but thoroughly honest in his
political convictions. He here con-
tesses that ne was hypocrite that
his eager denunciation CT the Chi
nese, in which he compared them as
a pestilence With yellow fever or the
cholera, was not meant except in a
Pick wickian sense; that his anxiety
to protect the people of the United
States from the "seething rotten
ness" OF Chinatown was simulative,
his real purpose being to crafty the
prejudices of the people of Califor-
MIA and thereby gain votes for his
party. MIR. Blair seemed quite un-
conscious of the fact that in making
this confession he was disgracing
himself and his party. 1t is this de-
liberatc defamer of the Chinese
slanderer by his own confession
that the president has appointed as
the representative of our govern
ment among the people he injured.
The true inwardness OF the Blair
educational bill becomes better un-
derstood as time passes. That, too,
was based on the desire to gain
votes for the Republican party,
though the author pleaded for it as
an act Of justice and mercy to the
poor, suffering blacks of the South.

PROGRAMMES AT THE EXPOSITION.


1t is scarcely necessary at this day to
argue at length before the readers of this
department the proposition that musical
Pittsburg needs nothing SO much as a per-
msnent local orchestra OF symphonic grade.
The overwhelming prominence of the or
chestral department in the modern musical
life, the prime importance of orchestral
music in the development of the public
taste, the almost entire absence of op-
portunity for local music lovers
and students to become familiar
with the greatest works of the
master composers (the greatest works are
either wholly or largely orchestraD and the
grievous need of our local choral societies
and other performers for worthy orchestral
support-all these considerations, and more,
have been frequently set forth in these
columns
To them is to be added the fact that the
projected new auditorium on Penn avenue
will this season afford the much-needed
hall seating enough patrons to support such
On expensive series of concerts, and the
urgent desirability of developing such a
permanent musical institution to be in
Readiness for the promised Carnegie Music
Hall, with its noble opportunities for the
further future of the art in this community.
Musical Pittsburg does need permanent
symphony orchestra more than anything else.
She needs it and is ready for it right now.
That is emphatically the need of the hour.
And the man of the hour is here!

Mr.. Moore, who has formulated a most
admirable plan for supplying Pittsburg's
orchestral need, is q young man, though
not so young looking as the above cut, from
D photograph taken some years ago. He was
born in New York State in 1868. But he is
Q man of brains and of strong personality.
His father was such before him-the Rev.
known NJ. E. clergyman and philo-
sophical writer. Young Moore, after
p musically spent childhood, went to
Boston at Is and for two years studied hard,
voice culture with Harry Wheeler, German
Jieder with Louis c. Elson, harmony and
counterpoint with Stephen A Emery and
George W. Chadwick, composition and Or
chestration with William F. Apthorp, ora
torio and conducting with Carl Zerrahn. At
Columbus, Chicago, Cleveland and
several other places in succession,
che next seven years were spent
IN teaching, concertizing, opera
singing and church choir work. During
this period Mr.. Moore organized and con-
Quoted several orchestras, was one of the
principal baritones of the American Opera
Company during its first season in New
York, was soloist and precentor at Prof
David Swings Church in Chicago, etc. His
reputation as a singer has for some years
enabled him to command $50 and more for
concert appearance. Mr. Moore then
spent a year in Munich, where he
studied scores and orchestral conducting
with Concertmeister Abel, of the ROYAL
Opera, and worked also at baritone roles and
gathering materials for series of lectures
on "Nibelungen Ring" Returning last
June, Mr.. Moore has spent the summer in
delivering these lectures at Chautauqua and
elsewhere The members of Calvary and
6hadyside churches have had taste of Mr..
Moore's musical quality on his visits to
friends in this city during the summer.

Couldn't Find the Advertisement.

One of Mr.. Wilson's editorial paragraphs
in the last Boston Musical Herald tells thu
capital story:
Years ago, when Hastings was the greatest
American composer, the church at Duxbury
was considering, the Introduction of new
hymn books. A shrewd publisher made
offer of one kind, strictly pure as to verse
and music, containing nothing calculated to
lead the rustic mind from considering the
dire consequences sure to fall on him who
wandered from the paths of orthodoxy. A
second and cheaper offer the publisher
made; but the book must contain an adver-
tisement. The committee of the church
pondered the question long and well, finally
deciding TO save few shillings and take
the books having the advertisement. In due
course they came. They were beautiful to
the eye in their garish colors of green and
white-tints the clam Goth love. Before US
ing, the parish met at one Of the deacon's
houses to search for the advertisement; IL
could not be found. The descendants OF
Standish concluded that after all they had
been the victims Of happy mistake; that
the books they had receive were free from
the heathenry OF the packer Of canned
goods or the maker of yeast cakes. So into
the pews of Duxbury meeting house went
the green and white hymn book. It was
some months before the preacher read aloud
to his congregation the following stanza:
God Of heaven and angels sing
Peecham's pills are just the thing.
Lord of love and mercy mild
Two for man, one for aechild.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-09-13
Plan of the New Orchestra.

The present plan in its general features,
as it has been discussed with and heartily
approved by few of our leading men of
music and wealth. may be best given in Mr..
Moore's own words as follows:
1t is intended that the orchestra shall con-
Eist of from 30 to 56 professional musicians,
Including as many OF those already resid-
ing here as are competent and will heartily
cooperate in the success of the whole. The
remainder could be obtained in New York.
The entire number are to be engaged for the
season of five months by contract, accord
ing to which all rshearsals and concerts are
to be provided Tor.
The primary intention is to give series
Of ten Cornerstone every two weeks-the
season beginning in the middle of Noyem-
Der and closing in March Besides these,
three or four concerts will be given in
Allegheny, and two or three short tours ar
ranged through Western New York, Penn
sylvania, West Virginia and Ohio. The
most Of the players being on salary, the
additional cost of these extra performances
would be slight and the burden of the whole
expense would be shared by a greater num-
Der of supporters. 1t is also intended that
the orchestra shall assist vocal societies at
their concerts and support prominent artists
visiting Pittsburg.
1ne proposition IOr Une programme pre-
sents the following original features Each
evenings program is to consist of two parts;
the first Historical, the second Miscel-
laneOus. Each first part will be devoted to
q single composer, or a single work; each
second part will contain at least one work
by an American composer and two or three
characteristic or brilliant solo and orches-
tral numbers. The following composers
works have been considered for the first
three concerts, respectively: Mozart,
piano and baritone solos; Beethoven, violin,
piano and soprano solos; Weber, soprano
and baritone solos. These programmes
will include overtures, symphonies, concertos
and operate selections and Will fully illus
trate the various styles of composition that
are especially characteristic of each CON-
poser.
On the basis that one enjoys only what he
understands, an entirely new and most
valuable departure is to be a feature of these
concerts. This is a verbal explanation of each
pumber on the programme, its meaning, and
intended method of Interpretation, including
points of tempo, climax, orchestration and
thematic development. 1t is expected
that in these short talks before the numbers
enough will be said to give the audience a
fairly complete idea of what to look for in a
musical composition and how to enjoy it
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-09-13

when it comes. 1t is also intended to print
descriptive programmes, giving a short
biographical sketch of the composer repre-
sented and other explanatory matter, which
will be useful to the audience before and
after the concerts.
Soloists-vocal and instrumental-are to
be engaged for each concert, care being
taken to get the best Beethoven player for
the Beethoven night, the best Liszt player
for the List night, etc, thus obtaining the
best possible Interpretation of each COM
poser's style and works.
Two plans are under consideration re-
garding the finances; the first is to OBJ
tain guarantee subscription of from
$4,000 to $50, 900 for each of three
years, to be called on only in case
of deficit, and to sell by subscription
as many seats as possible, employing prop
er person to canvass the city for that pur-
pose. The second is to secure a subscrip-
tion of from S15, 900 to $4,000, the same to
be paid in ten parts or installments to a
treasurer duly appointed, one installment
to be paid on the day of each concert; to sell
tickets as above stated, and as many as pos
sible; and to invest, upon the recommends
tion of the subscribers, all money remain
ing with the treasurer at the end of each
season, and thus establish an endowment
fund for the permanent support of the or
chestra for all future time. All music pur
chased by the organization for use in these
concerts to be paid for out of the general
fund and to remain forever the property of
the organization, for its use, and as library
of reference for resident musicians and
music students.
