PRAISE FOR THOMAS.

What the Boston Newspapers Say
About the Great Orchestra's Work.
The Boston Transcript has the following to
say of Theodore Thomas orchestra: But to
return to the performance. We could fiji a
column with admiring remarks about it; Mr..
Thomas reading of the score was 30 SYM
pathetic. so exhaustive of its meaning, ard
the orchestra carried out his meaning SO
thoroughly, hat II could be called nothin z
less than great. Mr.. Thomas notifications
of the tempo in the symphony OF Brahms
were always in place, always to the point,
not because they were sudden or gradual,
strongly marked or delicate but solely be-
cause they seemed ar iStically necessary, and
not dictated by any whim of the conduc or
they carried conviction with them because
one felt that the music could not go other
wise, and such passage could not b. played
without hurrying, that such another could
not be played without holding back The
inner necessity of the thing was always
patent Mr.. Thomas never seemed to be
merely aiming at an effect nor Of impress
ing pet idea Of his own upon the audience.
When the tempo is modified in Chis way,
we applaud with hand and feet, and as
ready TO burn at the shrine Of the god Ru-
bato as any enthusiast we know
The programme for the Theodore Thomas
matinee Saturday afternoon, Dec. 8, is sa d
to be, by those who know. the mos, artistic
programme of his three. For instance enc
feature of the concert Will be the symphony
OF Beethoven. In speaking OF this symphony
the Boston Journal says:
And here it would be easy to indulge in
eXtrayagant rhetoric. For clearness beauty
and true dramatic feeling the performance
was unsurpassable The scherzo never
seemed so mysterious, and the strange and
shuddering transition to the march-fnale
was Of thrilling effect. Careful as was the
treatment of the detail, abundant as were the
subtle nuances, the rhythm never tagged. the
grandeur of the composers conception was
never befogged. 1t was a performance OF a
lifetime"
And of this same symphony the Boston
Traveller says;
THE great, the overwhelming feature was
the playing OF the symphony. In this case
Beethoven's immortal fifth had a reading and
a performance that simply impoverish pra ss

was superior to either, in that It had all the
qualities of finish. power saneness and fas-
cination combined. And he played upon his
band like the mas er that he is. Nothing
moro noble he'd been heard in Music hall
than the splendid outburst of the finale, that
triumph of hope and JOY. At the close Of
the work the really genuine enthusiasm of
the cultured audience seemed unbounded and
the conductor was recalled again and again.

Vote ms Thex PIease.

Some Of the sneer1ng comment. INDUCED IN
by part OF the Republican press, against the
Swedes for their support of John Lind, shows
very bad taste, and is rank injustice to their
nationality. The Swedes have always been
staunch allies Of Republican principles. and
have saved the party from defeat more than
once. To accuse them of treachery now, be-
cause the only man elected on the state DEM
ocratic ticket is Swede. is entirely wrons-
There is no doubt that a good many individ-
ual American Swedes supported John Lind,
that otherwise voted the Republican ticket
straight, but they only voted their convictions,
which is undoubtedly a privilege they are
entitled to, and the man or party that tries
to prejudice the people of the state, against
the voters of that nationality, will find it up
hill work to ever receive any favors at the
hands Of the party.-Big Stone County Jour

Advice for the Senate.

The idea advanced by some that the SEN
ate should refuse TO confirm the appointments
that will be made by Gov.-elect Lind should
receive but slight consideration. That pol
icy might please the small boy politicians
and present oflceholders, but would never
be approved by the great majority Of the
people of the state who are more deeply in
terested in having a wise, business-like ad-
ministration of state affairs than they are in
seeing any party gain a political advantage.
All good citizens, regardless Of party, hope
that Mr.. Lind will prove himself worthy Of
the high position to which he has been elect
ed. If he does he will select none but good
men for the offices at his disposal and If
he does not upon his own shoulders rests
the responsibility. During the campaign Mr..
Lind charged that in many of the depart
ments affairs were grossly mismanaged, and
if elected he would at once proceed to re-
move the evils complained OF. We believe
that he should be given every opportunity to
prove the charges, because IL the wrongs
do exist we all want them righted, but II he
fails to show up the alleged corruption and
mismanagement 1t will prove that he resorted
to deception in his campaign, and two years
hence the people will call for an explana-
ton. 1t would be unwise politically for the
Republican senate to antagonize appointments
made by Mr.. Lind, but aside from this there
are a number OF parties now holding ap-
pointive positions in this state who should
be removed on general principles Not that
they have been corrupt or mismanaged the
states business as Mr.. Lind charged, but be-
cause their personal and political conduct
has been such as to create a general pretu
dice and dislike which is showed by Repub-
licans as well others. Had Mr.. Eustis
been elected these gentlemen would have
been notified that their services were no
longer needed, and the election Of Lind does
not make their retention in office any more
desirable. The Republican members of the
senate will best serve the interests of the
state and the Republican party by putting
no stumbling block in Mr.. Lind's way I'M
less his political obligations should lead him
in some Instances TO select men who are IN
qualified or unworthy.-Wheaton Gazette
