CONCERNING PIANOS.
KimbaIl's Methods Menace TO the
Entire Trade.
tchicago Musical News

JIG AOlIOWfAtR ddtCIllECIllOHb HAS 6COnil
given a prominent position in the daily
papers of Washington, D. c.. and has
been printed in the Chicago Musical
News and the American Hebrew News,
of Portland. We desire to call the atten-
ton of the pnblic to it.
1.-the hhfaiFness of the assertions it con-
tains needs no emphasizing, for they
will appear at once to the sense of right
Inherent in every legitimate dealer in
pianos all over the country:
Next Tuesday viii be special bar
gain day on pianos at our store. We
have found some grand bargains in new
Upright Pianos mot the celebrated Kim
ball pianos), and propose to give the
public a chance to secure new pianos
next Tuesday at manufacturers whole
sale prices.
The prices Tuesday next for these new
elegant Upright pianos will be only $l49
and $159 each. Part time given if de-
sired. These pianos will be on exhibit
at tour stores all day Monday butt no sales
will be made from this lot until Tuesday,
and will continue that day only.

The KimBal eompanys maysregara
sueh methods aa fair and. l5onorahle, but
they are open to the seyerest criticism in
attempting to destroy the piano trade in
Washington after many years of honor
able work to promote it. -
The unfairness of thescard lies ins the
assertion that the pianos which are to
be sold at eacrifieial prices are not made
by the KimbalI company. Therein is
the poison. ---s9sssS ~
This whole scheme is perpetrated to
give the 4Kimball sipianos asposftion, to
which their merits5do not entitle them.
Although the sKimbaII advertisement de-
clares these are not KiJnball pianos
which are to be slaughtered it does not
enhance thezvaI1e of their own instru-
ments.
Those who are familiar with the Kim.
ball pianos know perfectly ybwel1 .that5the
makers can afford to sell them at Just
such. rtiihons prices as are quoted for
other instruments In their possession at
Washington. '7''i' = 'a'sA-if-3 s''4'7'1' al'1
What is there in. the KimbaHs piano to
justify this step? Nothing.
The KimbaH company make one of the
cheapest pianos in the United States. a
And after the Kimball piano is made
ready for the market it is not then worth
Ia place above sslowsrsnk. go ss -
When you come to think of 1t, can you
name any genuine, JfrstcIass house that is
selling the KsplbaIl pidn6sf ~
The Kimbail managers may consider
| they have made brilliant strokes, but
they are merely using gigantic power to
foistsa cheap make on he market.
The question is also one of a broader
conception than mere local purviewt
Such adyertisements as these cut at the
root of the piano industry for. they mis-
lead private buyers. a
1 Z WesshalI not let this subject stop here.

 ''In the vicinity of Pittsburg alone over 10000 worknlen received an advance in wages during the last week. .''-Dispatch from Pittsbufgy-May 12, to New York Tribune. tT ..
 We see that at last few of our repub- lican contemporaries have been con- strained to take notice of this wages movement, although many of them still ignore it in. their editorial columns. These latter prefer to. stand by the fol- lowing remark recently published by the New York Tribune;
 Business has been recovering, demo- crats tell us daily, but the working peo- pie do not get sthe old wages. They are learning that the sort of business revival for which democratic statesmen look means more severe competition with the labor of other lands; that it's coming does not restore wages, but only makes it more clearly impossible to restore them"
 They should know, however. that the Tribune has now laid aside that doctrine.

KANSAS NEW SENATOR.

Hon. Lucien Baker has for years
been conceded to be a very level-head-
ed, everyday kind of man when 1t
came to affairs of finance and business.
While holding that the characterization
Of silver was job in the interest of the
classes and against the masses, in that
it curtailed the volume of real money
by just so much thereby depreciating
values unnecessarily if not wickedly,
and also that of the price of silver IL
self until it has fallen far below the
old ratio, he has yet, in advocating its
reconciliation been quite liberal and
conservative in his demands. The
third message of President Cleveland
was SO unexpected that it set every
public man in Washington to talking.
The views were many and often con-
f1ictinig. The only thing in which
there seemed to he an entire unanimity
was the determination or resolve that
there should be no precipitation or I'M
due haste in so grave matter and that
whatever might be done the recon-
mendations of Mr.. Cleveland would
never be adopted. His message upon
its face, its urgency and suddenuess
had too much the appearance of a job,
as if the war message had been issued
only To prepare the way for and force
the adoption of his financial policy
The Republican senator from Kansas,
Iucien Baker, said:
so far as L am concerned, did not
chink congress should afford Mr.. Cleve-
land any relief or legssla;te along tho lines
indicated in his message of December or
In the one of This date. The message to-
day is but a rehash of his vain financial
theories advanced in his first message. II
Mr.. Cleveland will consent to a revision OF
the Gorman-Wilson tariff bin so that our
revenues may be increased aloag The line
of protection, We shall shortly have sui
ficient money IN the treasury 10 meet the
current expenses of the government
This congress should only furnish re-
lief along the lines of protection. and
should not think for a single moment OF
retiring the greenoacks or permitting Mr..
Cleveland 90 issue bonds, thereby running
the country into debt. The country has

called. OF the Democratic party. Its bus
mess and financial theories are mere
vagaries and are not applicable to the
business interests and wants Of the peo-
pie. There IS no present and Immediate

THE PRICE is TOO GREAT.

II is not without significance tnat all
eyes turn instinctively toward Canada
as the seat and center of hostilitjes in
case Of a war with England. Nobody
thinks of a battle ON the ground in dis
pute between Great Britain and Ven
eZuela, and herein lies the best posi-
be reason why she will take up arms
only as a last extremity against the
United States. In so doing she would
lose in leagues what she could only
hope TO gain in acres in South America.
Sho would lose in treasure that which
she could never hope to regain, and
with it the last hope of ever acquiring
colonial possessions in this country.
England is gruff, dictatorial and
crafty, but her diplomacy has ever
been OF the kind which saved the
question at issue, and that without
bloodShed. There viii be no war, but
it does not follow that the United
States should yield an inch of vantage
ground. or surrender a single strategic
advantage for the sake of peace Cine
of the certain conditions of a possible
war would be the forcible annexation
of Canada to the United States.

GENERAL HARR1soN's CANDIDACY

All the talk seems to be Of Mckinley
and Reed 1t is Reed and Mckinley
in the newspapers. and Mckinley and
Reed in political circles. Harrison for
the week past has hardly been named
except as the probable chairman OF
Cleveland's commission to Venezuela
But it should not be forgotten that the
ex-president is a wonderfully self-cOn-
tanned individual. His whole life en-
phasizes that characteristic in him. He
so as a president, and he is still so as
candidate for denomination. Those
who figure UP results without taking
Harrison and his friends and influence
into the account are reckoning, it may
be, without their host. There is no
doubt of the eX-president's candidacy,
Notwithstanding his reticence. But he
is not the kind of a candidate that
either Reed or Mckinley is. He is,
as his friends term it, only receptive
candidate" He is neither aggressive
or particularly seeking. 1t is said that
the Indiana delegation will not form
ally present his name to the national
convention, nor will any set speech be
made for the purpose of presenting his
name His plan is somewhat similar,
according to all accounts, to that fol
lowed by the friends of Mr.. Blaine in
1883. The Maine delegation in that
convention divided it's vote among the
various candidates. No one presented
Mr.. Blaine's name to the convention,
but it was perfectly well understood
that the Maine delegates were only
waiting an opportunity to spring the
magic name Of Blaine on the conven-
ton. Mr.. Blaine himself alone pre-
vented il. But for his refusal, or de-
chnation by cable, he would have been
nominated. By following the same
tactics at st. Louis, Harrison's friends
believe that they will be able to COM
mand the situation, and also avoid
arousing the antagonism of any of the
other candidates. They guarantee that
General Harrison will not send in any
declination in advance.
