Are They Wise Musicians p

The Symphony orchestra that makes
music in the big Carnegie music hall IN
New York struck the other night because
its leader, Walter Damrosch, insisted
that musician, who has great reputa-
tion in Europe, but who does not belong
to the musicians union in New York,
shodld play in the orchestra. This mu-
sician's name is Hegner. and he does not
belong to the union because he has not
been in this country long enough to join it.
The Symphony ochestra is very large
one and is composed of picked musicians.
There is no other orchestra in this country
equal to it. Indeed, there are only three
or four in Europe that compare favorably
with it. The members of it are paid all
the way from $50 to 500 per week, and
they get their money whether they play
or not. The money to support it is sub
scri6ed by Cornelius Vanderbilt, Andrew
Carnegie and other rich men.
The men did not want to strike, and
they resisted doing so until they were
told they would be expelled from the
union unless they did as they were or
dered. Now they are out of work, and
most of them have families to support.
Had they stood by Mr. Damrosch they
would have had good wages for twenty
five weeks, with the certainty of being
engaged for next and subsequent seasons.
Mr.. Damrosch, who is a son-in-law of
the late James G. Blaine thinks he is in
the right and will not discharge his i'm
ported musician, Hegner. He will en-
deavor to form a new orchestra. 1t will
take him some time to do that, because
most of the best musicians are members
of the union. He may import a number
of musicians, but even in that case he
will lose a good part of his season.
1t is a question whether the striking
musicians will not come to the
conclusion that they made
mistake. Mr.. Damrosch had no
objection to the union and did
not want to have any trouble with it. He
thinks, however, he ought to have some
thing to say about his own orchestra.
The man Hegner he wanted for certain
purpose. No man in the union in this
country can do what he can; hence the
the union could not supply MIR. Dam
rosch's want. But the union had its cast
iron rules and Mr. Damrosch has a cast
iron will. The result is, a large number of
musicians are out in the cold, and they
are apt to remain out for good long
while, because the demand for musicians
is not equal to the supply.

The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1893-12-21

The MORNING News was wrong the
other day when it said the South Carolina
Legislature was experiencing lucid in
terval. 1t was misled by cranky
crotchet, which at first looked like an evil
dence of reason, when the House killed
the bill to put Charleston in the black dis
trict. Since then the bill has been re-
vived and passed, and other bills have
been passed which make it evident that
the lucid interval we so much hoped to
see is as far off as ever. One effect of the
new redistricting bill viii be to put a
premium upon fraud in congressional cleo
lions in Charleston. That Gov. Tillman
realizes this is shown by the utterance on
the subject of the Columbia Register,
generally conceded to be the governor s
official mouthpiece. 1t says: Charles
ton will carry the Seventh with ease Her
people know they can do it." If the
people of Charleston do really know how
to overcome vote of three to one, they
are earnestly recommended to communi-
cate the plan to the ti-Tillmanites
throughout the state and advise it's adop-
ton.

Michael Davitt is likely to be called
upon to testify in the Coughlin-C ronin muir
der trial at Chicago, by affidavit or in per-
son. Mrs. Foy, the wife of one of the con-
spirators, who has turned informer, says
the conspirators received a letter from
Davitt with reference to DR. Cronin in
which occurred the expression, Remove
at all hazards, but use your own discre-
ton" This letter, according to the
woman, sealed DR. Cronins fate. Mr..
Davitt will probably have little trouble
in proving the letter to have been a
forgery

Is It Within congress, Provinoep
F,rom the Philadelphia Times Dem. }.

The President submits the whole question
to the broader authority and dis, retion Of
congress- But it is not clear that congress J
has anything TO do in the premises. The
Presidents own position is absolutely unas-
sailable. SO far as was in his power, he has
corrected wrong for which he was not re-
sponsible, while keeping entirely within the
limit OF his constitutional authority and he
may safely leave the final Judgment to the
conscience Of the American people,

Gov Tillman, of South Carolina, is a
living reminder of the fable of the gnat
on the bulls horn. He processes to imagine
that Chief Justice Fuller was influenced
in his decision in the Swan case by what
he said in hisrecent message. The chances
are about ten to one that the justice never
saw the message, and about ten million
to nothing that the justice does not care a
picayune what Gov. Tillman thinks or
saws about anything.

Never Contemplated Force.

From the Columbia Is. c. State DENY.
Now that the disclosure is made, il is seen
that the President, while believing that JUS
tice dictated the restoration OF Liliuokalani.
has been using moral suasion only toward
that end, and that the delay in the case has
been caused by his efforts to protect the revo-
lutionists from the vengeance which might
follow restoration.

that Its demagogues and partisan ranters

terest, whether the legislature, that has no
diplomatic power, can do anything by legis-
lation to settle a purely diplomatic affair.

The Brazilian war vessels that were
improvised at New York and sent south
ward for the ostensible purpose of blow
ing Mello, the rebel. out of the water,
have so far not demonstrated that they
ale worth anything to PeiXoto. Indeed,
they have been a source of weakness to
the government, because of the breaking
down of one and the disaffection among
the crew of the other. The America has
been a cripple ever since her second or
third day out and the Nictheroy has been
manned by a disaffected crew who, Off
GERS and men, are enlisted for revenue
only. The officers of the Nictheroy
have been palliated by PeixO-
tO's accession to their demand
for 5000 each for three months SER
vices, but the men were still virtually on
strike at last adyices. They demand $500
each for three months, while Peixoto is
willing to give only $500. The men are
firm in their demand, however, and may
bring the government to their terms or
take the ship out of the fight. 1t would
be positively funny, if Mellos agents
should come along with a bag of gold and
persuade the Nictheroy to change her pol
tiles.

country in fifteen years.

The comments of the republican papers
on Mr. Cleveland's Hawaiian message
show that it hit them hard. They had
been making themselves ridiculous for
weeks by assailing him and his Hawaiian
policy so bitterly as to justify the sus
picion that they recognized the fact that
they were in the wrong, but hoped ID win
the public to their views by abusing Mr..
Cleveland and ridiculing Commissioner
Blount. They assumed that the Presi-
dent had instructed Minister Willis
to overthrow the provisional government
and re-establish the monarchy by force,
and they suggested the President ought
to be impeached.
They have found out that the President
has done nothing that he is not author
lied to do and has kept within the consti-
tutioual limits. But they have not the
courage and fraukuess to say they were
wrong and that they did the President
injustice. In a sneakiug and cOwardiy
way they attempt to belittle him by ridi
cule, because his efforts to settle the
Hawaiian muddle by peaceful methods
have failed. And they are particularly
bitter because the fact is made so plain
that Minister Stevens is responsible for
the overthrow of the legitimate govern
ment Of Hawaii, and that the Harrison
administration made haste to take ad-
vantage of the wrong done by Minister
Stevens
But of all the queer views taken of the
Hawaiian matter, that of the New York
World is the queerest It admits that
the Presidents position is right, and that
his policy is sound, but says that the
American people will never consent to
the restoration of the Hawaiian mon
archy, because they are opposed to that
form of government In other words, the
World thinks that the people. of the
United States are not in favor of undoing
a wrong-that they admit that their rep
resentatives were instrumental in depriv-
ing the weak and defenseless Hawaiians
of their Legitimate government, but
will not consent shat that govern
ment shall be restored because
it is not the kind of a government that
meets their approval. The World mis-
judges the people of the United States.
They believe in doing what is right, and
the World admits that what Mr.. Cleve-
land proposes is right.
. 1t is noticeable that the revolutionists
have Weakened to the fact that they
haven't a government based upon the viii
of the people. The provisional govern
ment is based on force, and Mr. Thurston
left for Honolulu a few days ago in hot
haste for the purpose of advising the es-
Enlistment of a republic. Just how re
public is to be formed with the majority
of the people against a republican form of
government doesn't appear. Perhaps only
a few of the people are to be consulted.
