A SERIOUS CHARGE.

The Marysville appeal, with positive
ness that leaves no doubt OF it's earnest
ness, makes an astonishing charge against
one or two unnamed business houses in
San Francisco, and from the discoveries
on which these are based the appeal draws
the damaging conclusion that much of
San Francisco's commercial methods are
as badly favored with the scent of rotten
ness as those of her political and social
tactics The specific charge is that in
one or two instances, of which the appeal
declares that it has positive knowledge,
s'the owners and managers of and for diff
ferent commodities" in Marysville and its
vicinity have had to bride the head clerks
of the San Francisco houses irtrusted with
the agency of these commodities In order
to assure the selling of the goods. One
case is mentioned of the discovery that
head salesman in one San Francisco house
was accepting brides from two persons who
were in competition with each other.
The appeal, with its customary dignity
and firmness, charges the existence OF such
a state of affairs to the carelessness of the
San Francisco houses, and not to their
honesty; if statesmen and heads of depart
ments were more carefully watched by the
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-03-31

Such performances can be listened to by
critical audiences as a harmless recrea-
ton, just as ardent admirers of the classic
drama can unbend occasionally and enjoy
well-performed farce-comedy.
But let the singers of light opera, or.
worse still, singers with the stamp of the
variety artist attempt to render such
works as Gounod's Faust" or Bizet's
Carmen" andsthe performance at once
becomes degrading to the taste of those
people who fondly imagine they are hear
ing good music, because they are being
treated to travesty of grand opera. In
intensely musical communities if the artists
who are applauded to the echo in 'La File
de Madame Angot" were to attempt CLASH
cal works the public would not thank them
for giving refreshing glimpses of good
music. On the contrary, they would be
fiascoed for attempting to sing what it was
beyond their province to execute artist
cally.
In short the tendency to go into raptures
over classical operas performed in an I'M
classical manner is what a community has
to guard against more than against the en-
joyment of trivial music, adequately per-
formed, for in all art triiing subject well
rendered is better than the butchery of
classic by inferior execution. The first Is
only triviality, the second is biasphemy
against the canons of art.

THE CONNECTING BOULEVARD.

That high sense of civic patriotism which
contemplates the public welfare in the accom-
pllshment of individual enterprise is the only
policy that can be successfully employed in the
identifying of a city. Such is the policy
adopted by the gentlemen who propose to give
to thiscity connecting boulevard from Golden
Gate Park southwark through the City to meet
the San Jose grand boulevard at given point.
1t is that sort of patriotism that is the founda-
ton of all permanent public improvement.
Either OF the two routes presented in yester-
days CALL is feasible and will make hand
some boulevard. If they are both placed upon
the same liberal footing in the offer to present
the boulevard free to the City they will furnish
to the Half-million Club propositions either of
which is worthy of the recommendation of that
important body to the Board of Supervisors,
and either of which will be approved of and
aided by the Spring Valley Water Company
and other parties in interest
The superior attractiveness of the scenery
Claimed by the projectors of one route may be
outweighed by the less prOhibitory grades Of
the other. Yet in the consideration of the
leveler road there may be taken into account
the liability to intrusion by heavy traffic. One
of the prime requisites of boulevard is that it
shall be attractive and free from the annoy
ance of heavy teams. On the other hand the
ease and speed that may be attained over the
leveler and more direct road is also entitled to
consideration. But whatever may be the deci-
sion In this matter the public should bear in
mind the spirit that originated the idea of con-
Meeting the beautiful Golden Gate Park with q
proposed boulevard that will pass through that
grand stretch of country between this citySand
san Jose, and emulate it by supporting the
project.

GOOD MUSIC AND GOOD TASTE.

Herr Scheel expresses the belief that
only through the stage can the general
public be made to respond to music of a
higher order. AS far as it goes this state
ment is true, but it needs qualification.
The fact is that good music on the oper-
attic stage must be adequately performed
or else it corrupts and demoralizes instead
of elevates popular taste. .'Robin
Hood" or the ''Mikado,'' given by singers
of high opera, who render their parts pleas
ingly and in tune, is something that, while
not exactly instructive from an artistic
standpoint, is certainly not injurious,

VICTIMS OF CIRCUMSTANCES.

Although San Francisco is well equipped
with asylums for the unfortunate there is one
class that is sadly neglected There are hospi-
tails for the sick and injured, asylums for the
insane and for young girls who have strayed
from the path of virtue, retreats for the cure of
inebriates and men addicted to the excessive
use OF morphine and similar drugs, homes for
children who have lost their parents and for
the aged who are destitute. There are charl-
table organizations and church societies for
supplying the wants of the poor and needy and
other philanthropic institutions. But for the
wives and families of men who are confined in
the penitentiary or in jail there is no home,
asylum or retreat.
Any one who cares to give the subject thought
or attention will be forced to admit that they
are entitled to as much, if not more, sympathy
and consideration than almost any other class
OF unfortunates. They are generally in the
deepest distress and in the greatest need of
pecuniary aid. sympathy and advice. Tie man
is not the real sufferer. He is deprived for the
time being of his liberty, but food and clothing
are supplied to him. The wives and families
have to bear the shame and modification of his
disgrace. They are Stunned by their neighbors
and often forsaken by old friends Although
anxious to obtain work, they find it difficult
to secure employment either at home or in
shops OF factories. If they go among strangers
they are in constant fear that the fact of the
bread-winner being criminal will be discoy-
cred. They are often in want of the necessaries
Of life, and if the family is grown up it is
seldom they can resist the temptation of being
dragged into the ways of sin when they are
compelled to believe that they are virtually
outcasts
1t seems strange that no benevolent institu-
ton or charity organization has ever turned
its attention to aleyiating the sufferings of the
families of convicts, who are the unfortunate
victims of circumstances. The subject is one
deserving the attention of philanthropic indi-
Viduals
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-03-31

proprietors such rascality as this would
not be possible. Assuming that the charges
made by the appeal are true, every mer-
chant in San Francisco who is in a position
to be thus betrayed by his employees will
be grateful for the warning. But he should
also carefully overhaul his business and
ascertain if this practice has been carried
on in his own establishment. No reputable
merchant would easily condone SO grave
an offense, for it is not only direct injury
to his own business, but it is "a matter seri-
ously affecting the interests of the whole
State.
1t may be suggested in this connection
that II no organized machinery already
exists among the San Francisco merchants
for ferreting out and Furnishing such scan
dalous practices as these, it is time that
proper steps to that end were taken. No
doubt the editor of the Appeal would
cheerfully do all in his power to assist in
uncovering the "a scalities of which he has
