crafty personal animosity in the
selection of officers to fill the
various positions. He should
remember that he is there to serve
the people. not to dictate. He is
very small part Of the Republi-
can party Of the state. Some
appointments should be made for
TIE purpose of Strengthening the
party organization. He acts as if
only his personal wishes should
be gratihed. The refusal to
appoint Frank A. Flower, of West
Superior, was probably gratifying
to the Governor personally, but
party interests have not been
served in not recognizing him.
The bill was passed with the under
standing that Frank should re-
ceive the appointment. Why
didn't he? Let the Governor
answer.

the Free-Trade editors recorded

they voted for President Cleveland

The River Falls (ReDl Journal

The River Falls rep Journal,
which is supposed to be Nils P.
Haugen's organ, has come out
boldly and notified Gov. Upham
and the present state administration
that they need not look for a
second term. Quite number OF
leading Republicans have express
ed the same idea. Maj. Upham
has not endeared himself to the
party in the seven months he has
been governor, and the early
opposition to a denomination con-
clusively shows that fact.

Manitowoc DEM Pilot: The
Upham administration is unpopu-
lar. This would not necessarily
mean that it is an inefficient one
but such is the fact. Gov. Upham
has shown a wonderful capacity
for blundering. He has no execu-
tive ability and he will take no
advice. There is hardly republic
can paper of standing in the state
which speaks we'll of his admins
tration. He has been as prodigal
of promises as MicaWber was of
his notes of hand and as careless
in redeeming them.

Appleton Post: There will be
work for the Republican party to
perform IN it's next state convention
That will be to repudiate the acts
Of the men who have repudiated
the pledge which the party gave
to the people. We hope there
will be no lack of courageous
voices on that occasion. At best
the party will go into the campaign
with a stigma upon it. 1t can,
however, do something towards
Wiping this out, if it will. We
shall hope for the best, and in the
meantime will contribute what
little we can to that end.
The only way for Republicans
who have the party's interest at
heart, is to refuse to aid in the
denomination or reelection of any
member of the legislature who
voted tor the relief OF eX-treaSurerS
including the Governor who
signed the bills. If any such
legislator be renominated, Republic
cans generally should repudiate
them at the polls. We give notice
that we are tired of such per-
formances and shall refuse to aid
in the election Of any such man.
Honesty in party pledges should
be as sacred as with the individual
The Appleton Post voices the
sentiment of every true Republi-
can in the state who desires, first
of all, integrity and honor in its
Party pledges.

The Tenor HIGH &.

There is a question in music which
| have heard debated often and one up
on which musical people, even singers,
disagree. AS the question is such
fundamental one, it seems strange
there should be any difference of opin-
ion concerning il among those at all ed
uCated in music. The question is this:
Is the range of the male voice an oc
taye below that Of the female voice?
In other words, is the tenor high G
and the low q of the baritone an oc-
tave lower than the low q of the con
tralto: If this be so, why is the music
for tenor written on the same CIef as
for a soprano, showing apparently iii
the same pitch. instead of indicating in
some way that there is an octave diff
ference between the two? \ clear eX-
PLANTATION of the question will be CRATE
fully received.
Answer: The tenor high G is an oc-
tave below the soprano high c, and the
low G. of the baritone is an octave lower
than the low G of the cOntralto. All
"opinions" to the contrary belong in
proofs of the exact squaring of the
circle which continue to be put forth
from time to time.
Another cause of mtsconception on
this point is. however, the very differ
ent impression made upon the ear by
notes in male or female voice. High
tenor A. for instance, is in unison with
the medium 4 of il contralto; but some
how it seems to sound higher That is.
everyone Immediately recognizes the
high 4 of tenor voice as "high
note" no one thinks Of the medium A
of Il contralto as high note" And
vet both notes are Of exactly the same
pitch. The reason for this difference of
impression is that this A really is a
high note for Il tenor-it lies very near
the extreme limit of his compass. and
its production is associated with a Ger
tain amount of effort to sing high"
but this same note lies in the medium
OF contralto voice, and no sort Of
physical effort or Straining is associated
with its production. Thus it is difn
cult for ears of no more than ordinary
acoustical keenncSS to realize that high
tenor a is really 10 higher than medium
contralto a; the ordinary ear is the vie,
tim Of an 'acouStical illusion"
That some singers, even profession
al ones, are still victims of this illusion.

be considered as cranlls, ut least on this
