Finance Will Be The Issue.

There can be NJ other outcome of the
next Democratic national convention
than the readoption of the free silver
doctrine. Colonel Bryan stands by the
theory, and he and his followers have
the organization of the party in their
own hands. To make the a easier for
them to put free silver to the front, the
Republican congress will. ere the con
vsntion be held, pass a strong gold
standard law, which will take from the
president the power to put the country
on a silver basis. and thus the Demo-
Gratis will be compelled to make free
silver coinage the issue and opposition
to the gold standard their chief cam
paign cry. Imperialism and militarism
are side issues that have served for di-
version this year, and been set aside by
the November elections. The fight
against trusts cannot be made al, issue
with the platforms of both parties and
the speakers on each side ~condemning

PROGRAM For CONGRESS.

One week from mex Monday the fifty
sixth congress will assemble. The Re
publican party will have a majority of
sixteen in the senate and thirteen in the
house, and will therefore be held re-
sponsible for the failure of any desired
legislation. The matter of government
for the new territories will be among
the most important work of the session.
1t is to be expected that the minority
party, having assisted in bringing on
the war that has resulted in new ques-
tions for congress to solve, will do what
it can to hinder the majority from TAX
ing prompt and effective measures for
utilizing the results of the war, as this
will be a session when the minority will
play politics in order to embarrass the
opposition so as to be able to go be-
fore h country next yea and charge
the Republican congress with failure to
accomplish needed legislation.
The slender Republican majority will
make it difficult to pass any measures
which a few Republicans might oppose,
but there may be Democrats who can-
not be induced to stand in the way of
progress. Partisan as are congressmen
from the south, that part of the United
States is strongly for expansion, and
some of the members may not deem it
their duty to attempt to harrass the
president. I've Republicans will enact
the very best measures that can be
passed. Obstructionists cannot hope to
defeat all legislation, because wise
council will prevent the urging of very
Objectionable bills.
The probability is that Hawaii and
Porto Rico will be provided for at once,
while events may delay arranging for
the Philippines. There will be the usual
fight on the Nicaragua canal bill, and
delay may be expected in it's passage.
The Pacific cable, so greatly needed ev-
cry day, will probably be provided for
early in the session, although there will
be a lobby to oppose this measure, as
there will be in the case of the canal
bill. The army reorganization bill will
occupy considerable time probably, but
there is no haste in this matter, as the
present Law was enacted for two years.
This measLs y should be settled early
enough, however, to prevent the enc
mics of the United States taking fresh
hope that the army may be rendered in
effective.

ent says that Delegate Perea is in
Washington, and is already doing good
work to secure statehood for the terri
tory. Colonel Twitchell, in his comba-
tive and cheerful way, also is doing a
good service for statehood. Nearly ev-
cry territorial newspaper, regardless of

Twitchell makes the good suggestion
that meetings be held in every town in

tanning facts and figures be adopted and
sent to Delegate Perea at Washington,
While the United States is expanding
and the people of the islands of the Pa
citic are being annexed, it is high time
thai the people of New Mexico and Ari-
zona were doing something to receive
self-government. The way to secure
statehood for these territories is to push

The naval expert appointed to exam
inc and test the Holland submarine boat
reports that it is all the inventor
claimed for it, and strongly recon-
mends hat the United States make a

although the crew consists Of but five,
1t went wherever the engineer chose to
go, was invisible, crawled along on the
bottom of the ocean or rushed ahead at
any desired depth, and approached ves-

covered. The Holland boat is a verita-
BILE monster of the deep, and will un-
doubtedly replace the ineffective torpe-
do-boats now in use.

THE SOUTH AND SECTIONALISM.

NMeIIlpHlS CCllIlGldI.)
The Democracy of the south is not a
sectional party. Whatever of local in
fluence it bows to is derived, not from
sectional feeling, but from a race an
tagonism, which is not and never has
been sectional. 1t is not prejudice
against the north, but the negro in pol
itics that makes the south solid for the
Democracy. The Republicans have won
IN election now and then in a border
state where the negro amounts to con
p~aratively little in voting strength, but
since the carpet-bag era they have new
er carried a southern state where the
negro population was large enough to
constitute a menace to white control,
and they never will carry one of these
states so long as they call their organ
ization the Republican party.

ATLANTA Constitution.)
No people outside of France present
such an aspect of political chaos and
confusion. The average citizen seems to
have lost his bearings, and men of I'M
doubted intellect have suddenly become
childish. A great editor calmly writes
an editorial article formally to deny
that his club gave him the cold Shout
der, or that an intimate friend refused
to speak to him at a reception. All sense
of proportion seems to be lost, and the
ordinary standards of conduct to be
swept away. Although Kentucky is a
great state and is inhabited by a great
people, it is impossible not to feel a lit
tie awed by the strange spectacles that
have been presented there during the
past few years. We can only ask what
next?

MUSICAL CULTURE

Has Kept Pace With City's Intel
IectuaI | ife.
AN APPREClATIVE PEOPLE
The Season Will be a Brilliant On e.
Several Notable Events Are Al
ready Booked-Concert ofthe
Festival Orchestra
AN APPREClATlVE PEOPLE
BY WILLIAM RYAN

Musical culture has kept fully up with
Birmingham's intellectual life. This is a
musical city. In few cities five times it's
size could a larger or more capable chorus
be brought together than the May Festival
chorus. In no community in the south is
there SO large percentage of people who
listen with appreciation to the works of
master composers as one finds in Birrning-
ham. All this is certainly encouraging to
those who are laboring for the advance
ment of musical art.
Birmingham is to have more good music
this season than ever before. On the 18th
of this month the Birmingham Festival Or
chestra Association will give a concert at
o. Briens opera house which promises to be
very brilliant event. The programme
will be strikingly varied Part |. will in
clude five beautiful orchestral numbers and
part III. will be made OPP of seven choruses
and all the great solos from Handels Mes
siah." On all former occasions Mr.. Guck-
enburger has led the oratorio with chorus
of between forty and fifty-five. At the con-
cert on the 2Sth he will have a chorus of not
. less than slightly picked voices. He had
a splendid rehearsal last Wednesday night.
There will be another full rehearsal next
Wednesday night. Heretofore the Mes
siah" has been sung in Birmingham with
out orchestral support. This year the fes-
tival orchestra will accompany the chorus.
Among the vocal so1oistS will be w. C.
Ernst Cincinnatfs best tener, and Oscar J.
Ehrgott, Cincinnatfs most distinguished
baritone.
About the middle of March Birmingham
will hear for the first time Theodore
Thomas matchless orchestra. This famous
organization will announce one or two con-
certs.
As grand as the music festival was last
May it will be even grander next May.
1t is understood that the Boston Festival
orchestra will be re-engaged, and with the
orchestra will come, in addition to a num-
Der of vocal soloists, the word-famed pi-
anist, De Pachmann. Mr.. Guckenburger
hopes to begin the chorus rehearsals early
in January. He expects to give Mendels-
sohns "E1ijah."
The Treble C1ef club had its first concert
of the season last Thursday, and two more
will follow. Among other local musical
events of decided value will be the song
services at ST. Mary's church. The st.
Marys programme for tonight is exception
ally rich. 1t is indeed almost up to the
dignity of a festival
1t is said that several concert companies
of the first rank are arranging to appear
here between the first of the year and
spring. 1t IS hoped that Paderewsh will not
allow the season to pass without giving
recital in this city.
Speak king of the Treble C1ef club one Will
not often hear finer four part harmony than
was heard Thursday in Vogrich's "Sere-
made" The ladies excel the mixed chorus
in that class of music. They rendered the
exquisite little work with such artistic
shading as to produce the effect of string
quartette.
