NATIONAL Is BANKRUPTCY LAW

Years of business depression and
financial stringency have left the people
OF the United States in serious condi-
ton. Many who lost all they possessed
during the dark days Of the past FIVE
years, Notwithstanding they have made
every honorable effort to discharge their
obligations, are still 30 deeply involved
in debt that unless the national gov
eminent comes to their relief in the en-.
acsment OF uniform bankruptcy law,
they can continue In business only un-
der great difficulty and entertainment.
With suits, judgments and executions
threatening or hanging over them, life
becomes burden and business q source
OF constant worry and annoyance. Their
best energies are psralyzed and their
efforts thwsrted until they eink dis
couraged under the weight of care and
anxiety.
Thsta bankruptcy law is imperatively
demanded the common sense Of the
country has long ago decided; but Con.
gress still hesitates to put unfortunate
debtors upon their feet again, allowing
them to continue the unequal struggle
with only such protection as Is afforded
by the insolvent laws of the several
States Of the Union. The framing of
general bankruptcy bills has engaged
the attention of Congress for years, with
no further result than to excite hopes
that are never realized, and create ex.
pectations, which are doomed to disap-
pointment. Such . bill is again before
the House, and was taken up yesterday
with view Of pressing it to q vote. II
hos been carefully prepared and en-
dorsed by the leading lawyers OF the
country, and 1t is expected that 1t will
pass the House. The Senate, however,
IL is feared, will oppose 1t, and there
fore Its fate Is still unsettled.
Every great commercial country exc
cept this one has o uniform bankruptcy
law. and it is to be hoped that a salts
factory enactment will soon be among
the statutes of the United States. A
uniform law properly framed would pro-
fecs both creditors and debtors and
would be in the interest Of business
men. Ithas been tried In the past with
she most beneficial results, as thousands
of men once in debt, but now prosperous,
can testify.

SINGERS, OLD AND YOUNG
Six Hundred Voices Will Be
Lifted Up in the Mormon
Choir.
A Famous Organization That Will
Be Heard Here Next
Wednesday.

This week San Francisco will be visited
by unique body of singers, the largest
church choir in the world.
One hundred and fifty picked singers of
the famous Mormon Tabernacle choir left
for the coast yesterday. They will give
sacred concert at Sacramento this even
ing, a concert at San Jose on Monday,
Oakland on Tuesday, and in the Metro
politan Temple of this City on Wednes-
day, Thursday, Friday and Saturday
They will leave for their return trip to
Zion on Saturday evening and arrive on
the following Monday, thus consuming
ten days on the trip.
This body in its entirety comprises
nearly 600 singers. Nine-tenths of its
membership consist of young men and
women who have been reared, as it were,
in the present directors classes. The re-
maipder are the fathers and mothers in
Israel who thirty years ago copied their
own music, and carried candles in their
coat pockets to their rude places of re-
hearsal, and held the flaming dip in one
hand and their music in the other while
judgment to muffle such threadbar
voices by enveloping them in the mass of
rich young voices OF their children, and in
some cases children's children. Their
conductor succeeds in the task, however if
the enthusiastic praise of Paderewski and
Sousa go for aught These famed lumin-
aries OF the musical armament lifted up
their lights upon Utah's musical horizon
and shone resplendent. The fixed stars in
the Utonian sky did not pale in compari-
son. Sousa is said to have declared that
Evan Stephens, the director, is the best
chorus conductor in the United States,
and Paderewski declared he had never
heard finer chorus than that which is
heard in the eggshaped tabernacle on
Sunday and in the massive neighboring
temple on occasions OF special solemnity.
There is much musical talent in Titan.
1t is rare indeed to find any one of the
dominant faith in the young State who
does not sing and there are some rare
voices among them.

He was fortunate from the time he ar

reporters. "The difference between an
American and an English bar" Chevalier
is reported to have said, 'is that in Eng

to mix it with all the water you want
while in happy, free America they give
you water, and allow you to mix it with

Evan Stephens is sometimes referred 10
by the older saints as "Our Shepherd
Bow" Some one with musical discern
ment and a kind heart "discovered' him
when he was an ungainly boy living IN
one of the humble settlements. He soon
attracted attention at the Boston Conser..
vatory by his genius, and in his SIX years
leadership has transformed the CHOIR.
Willard W eihe, the violin virtuoso who ac-
companies the choir, was q protege OF Ole
Bull. The great Norwegian vlollnist, took
the dreamy, fair-haired little fellow on
his knee and gave him his first lesson IN
the use of the bow.
Several daughters of Brigham Young
are among the singers who will come TO
the coast. Indeed every member OF the
organization represents some phase OF the
religious romance Nhose pages have been
scanned with keen interest by curious
world.
The choir is strong in oratorio, but its
repertoire includes compositions by the
leader and other Utonian composers. The
favorite, "HosannaW anthem by Evan
Stephens is used in the dedication OF all
the Mormon temples and its choruses
are most impressive. 80 My Father" is
a beautiful hymn written by Mrs. Eliza K.
Snow, an inter ountain poetess, sung IN
almost every Mormon assemblage.
This is the second pilgrimage o. the
choir, the first being to tue Worlds Fair,
where it won a prize. 1t carried off the
first prize at the Eisteddfod held at Salt
Lake City in October.
The Mormon singers will travel IN a
special train.
