MUSICTSNy ORGANIZE
Civilian War Against Military Will
Probably Rrenk Ouf.-=s ,.


You are invited to attend a meeting Of
the civilian musicians at MetZerott's Music
Hall Wednesday Inorning at 1890 o'clock to
devise ways and means to better our con-
dition." The above notice brought together
about forty representative musicians, and
inaugurated what many declare to be one
of the bitterest fights in which labor has
ever been involved in this CITY,. ,,.-..-.,-
The meeting was called to order by John
w. Orem, presfdenr OF Local Assembly.
No IL, Nationa1AeaS afu RalUmore, who
gave history OF the organization, and
then, after ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS z. Heustis
ness.
Those who took the initiative assert that
they are not lighting the knights of
Labor, but protecting themselves from the
numbers OF military bands in this city,
notably the Marine Band. The trouble
dates back to the time when Prof. Fan
ciulli took command of the band 1t Is
asserted that he has ordered all the MEM
berS OF the band to attend the meetings
or the local assembly of the Knights of
Labor. known as the Musical Union, and to
control that body in their own interest.
In addition to this, it is asserted that the
band is contemplating another tour over
the country, and this was too much for the
civilians to stand. MIR. William Keppler
asserted that the laboring element would
De against the movement, but Mr.. Charles
Wagner said that the unions were opposed
to the interference by military bands, and
considering the conditions, would undoubt-
ediy support the new movement. He called
attention to one man who is drawing two
salaries from the government-one as a
member OF the Marine Band and another
in the United States Insane Asylum.
MIR. Henry Neiman asserted that there
was law in the knights Of Labor that
would exclude military bands, but the bulk
of opinion was in favor of the new organi-
cation. Mr.. j. e. Esputa said that all of
the local musicians We're with the move
ment, but that some were in positions
where they could not take a stand. He
further said that some of the members of
the union had not been able to make more
than SO this entire season, as the business
was controlled by the band. He then
moved that paper be drawn up and sigma
lures be secured looking to the formation
of local league of the National Musical
League, which organization, Mr.. Orem as
Federation Of Labor. Mr.. C. c. Campagna
spoke very warmly in favor of the new
movement, calling attention to several
members of the band who have amassed
fortunes Notwithstanding the small salaries
paid Mr.. Wagner moved that those pres
ent bind themselves not to play in connec-
ton with members of the government
bands, but withdrew his motion, con-
siderable opposition was evidenced. A tenn
porary organization was effected. with Mr..
j. T.. ESputa as president and Charles E.
Huestis as secretary. A committee to ob-
tain signatures was appointed, consisting
of Fl. Davey, Charles Huestis and J. z.
Esputa. After adopting the name of the
Columbia Protec tive Association, the meet
ing adjourned, subject to the call of the
chairman,

Concerning Vaccination.

From the ST. Louis Republic.
There are still a good many doctors who
think that vaccination for smallpox does
more harm than good One of them was
a member of our school board few years
ago, and he and his colleagues almost sue
ceeded in persuading the board to resist
the health departments efforts to have the
children of the public schools vaccinated.
Fortunately for the city, he did not sue
ceed. The children, OF most of Them were
vaccinated and the health department has
been vaccinating the children of the city,
and grown people as well, ever since. st.
Louis has been almost free from smallpox
from that time.
In Chicago the result was different, or SO
1t appears to nave been from recently
published report of Health Commissioners
Reynolds of that city,
Over 5000 cases Of smallpox were treated
in Chicago last year. Sixty-five per cent
of the patients who had never been vac
cinated died. while of those who had been
vaccinated at some time in their lives only
6.S per cent died. Unfortunately, the num-
Der that had not been vaccinated was very
large, forty-fve per cent of the whole, and
heavy.
Chicago had 1920 deaths from smallpox
last year; st. Louis had several cases, but
not single death.
TnOugh the percentage OF 12tal cases
among those vaccinated was very light,
there is good reason to believe that 1t
would have been lighter if the patients had
been vaccinated within, say, five or six
years.
Further it may be said that many of
them would not have caught the disease
had their vaccinations been of recent date.
These statistics have special interest for
the public at present on account of the
anti-toxin treatment of diphtheria. Vac
cination with virus was as bitterly opposed
by a large element in the medical fraterni-
ty for many years as the serum treatment
for diphtheria is now. The opposition
gradually weakened, however, in that case,
and the indications are that it will in the
treatment of diphtheria.

Our Petroleum Trade.

The United States consul at the Straits
Settlements calls attention to the fact that
Russian petroleum is supplanting the
Amerio an product In those settlements.
He attributes this to the superior facilities
for slowing and handling used by the Rus
siars, and suggests that the United States
trade, which is considerable, might be re-
tanned by the use of tank steamers, which
are sure of return cargoes, and the cree
ton of storage tanks at the ports Of de-
barka ton.

The OrnitbOlC gist Examinations.

The civil service commission finds 1t i'm
practicable to give the examinations for
assistant ornithologist and pathological
clerk outside of Washington, owing to the
fact that competitors will be required to
examine pathological specimens, which
cannot be transmitted to other cities. All
applicants for these examinations will,
therefore have to come to Washington.
