The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1902-01-18

A program of high order and unus-
afternoon before the Matinee Musi-
Gale illustrating the Gypsy Element in
music. The program was arranged by
the third division assisted by Mr.. Aug
ust Hagenow and Mr.. Alexander Ber
ger and reflected great credit on the
leaders, Mrs. f. Lewis Baker and Miss
Ensign. The stage was arranged with
brilliant colored Navajo blankets TO
represent a gypsy camp and part of
the performers We're dressed in gypsy
costume. A most pleasing feature of
the program was the group of songs
given by four young ladies who had
been drilled by Mrs. Baker. Their
singing showed a high degree of finish
and blending and gave a very vivid
picture of gypsy life. The scene from
Carmen given by Mrs. Baker, assisted
by Miss Agnew and Mrs. Hart, also
deserves special mention and was Civ
en- with true dramatic style and col
oring.
The music throughout was very bril-
liant. Mrs. Will owen Jones played
a List rhapsody in a most delightful
manner and the string numbers We're
given with the same brilliant abandon,
which characterized the entire pro-
gram. Miss Herrick. who appeared for
the first time before IA Matinee Musicale
audience, played her solo and two ac-
compartments with taste and expires
sion and Miss Murphy's songs We're
charmingly rendered. The program:

MONEY IS WRONG

" The Hon. Fernando de Soto, Senator de
Mississippi, discussed the transfer ques-
ton with a Washington street car con-
ductor yesterday and after failing to con-
vince the conductor and a fireman BY
means of fistic arguments, resorted to the
knife. This, too proved to be an in
effectual argument. Now the senator Il
wroth He has had the conductor ar.
rested and desires to have both him ane
the fireman who assisted him to remove
the angry senator from the car dis
charged from their positions.
These are the requests of an angr,
man clearly in the wrong. Neither of the
men should lose their positions. The
senator should be arrested for breach
of the peace The constitutional i'm
.munity of members of congress from ar
rest under certain conditions is not in
volved in this case.
Senator Money seems to be a pretty
good sort of statesman with bad tenn
per. When he cools off he should apollo.
gize to the conductor. In that way III
would make up for the bad impression he
senator, has created by allowing him
self to become involved in disgracefu
quarrel with street car conductor wht
was doing his duty.
And whi1eswe are on the subject it ma!
be suggested that another conductor ha
an apology coming from Senator Hoar
The kind conductor tried to help thu
aged senator onto the car. The senator
being quite sure that he is still stron,
and hale, regarded this courtesy as tend
ing to advertise him as a weak and de-
pendent old man. Hence it was an in
suit. Hence the conductor must be dis
charged.

JUST A FIGURE OF SPEECH

Ever since Henry Watterson drew that
banquetinspired picture of the formidable
and menacing Man-cn- Horseback 1T has
troubled our dreams. Into our peaceful
slumbers there has been injected recol-
lection of a French poster of the original
Man Horseback. There was the Cur
veting white horse, with heavy, flowing
name. And astride him sat the Man,
but under the chapeau was not the Ma
poleonic but the Rooseveltian face-thick
lenses, prominent teeth. 81
At thesfeet of the charger lay in lieu
Of the fertffe plains Off Pie dmon1t plain
and valley and forest Of the American
empire, to say nothing of the islands of
the seas with their w9eaught sullen
peoples And the vision of the Man was
but the preface to other visions Of a land
bristling with bayonets and resounding
with trumpet calls; of an ocean black
with frowning battleships.
But now comes the colonel and ex-
plains:
There is no man.
There is no horse
Therefore there is no real Man-on-
Horseback.
This sudden release Of the tension OF
apprehension. is something awful. Why,
colonel. did you scare us SO? Why didn't
you tell us that your language was only
hgurative and fantastical and not to be
taken seriously?

The JuNTA SEES THE LIGHT.

A significant phase of the progress of
the paciflcation Of the Philippines is the
bowling of the Hongkong junta to the
inevitable. This iunta, composed largely
Of Filipinos from Batangas province, has
taken an important part in stirring up
opposition to american authority arm
ing and encouraging it. Located on neu-
trail soil at Hongkong and not far from
the islands, it has been more dangerous to
American authority than the rebels in
the field.
Devoted to the independence of the
Philippines, the junta has proceeded on
the theory that If it could only keep the
war alive the time would come when the
American people would tire of their bur-
den and leave the Islands to themselves.
It is significant Of its determination
that the instruction was most stubborn
in Batangas province. But General Chaffee
reports that the junta advised General
Malvar to surrender. This is taken to
mean that the junta has now recognized
its error in supposing that the Americans
would ever leave an unfinished fighting
job. The members of the junta at last
understand that the future Of the Philip
pines cannot be worked out as they would
have it by opposing American authority.
The Americans have made up their minds
to lay the foundation of whatever politi-
cal structure is to be raised in the
Philippines. They will do it. 1t is best
that they should do it.

The BIG SHIPPING DEAL

1t is interesting to note that many of
the most ardent opponents of monopoly
who are supporting the Frye ship subsidy
bill. do not seem to perceive that the
American line recently taken into the big
fleet of foreign tonnage would receive I'M
der the provisions of the bill, the lions
share of the disbursements which are
made discriminative in favor of vessels
which are least useful for our ocean car
rying trade. Not only this, but the enor-
nous amount of foreign tonnage acquired
by the Morgan syndicate may become ell
gible to the subsidy benefits through the
clause in the Frye bill which directs and
commands the postmaster general to con-
tract for postal service with steamers
answering the requirements of the meas
ure, which would restrict, prejudicially to
our interests, the foreign mail service of
the country in several important direc-
tions. The, attorney of the Merchants AS
ISOLATION of New York has reported to that
body his opinion that the language of the
bill favors such construction of it's scope.
He states that under this construction q
practical deadlock would be reached and
the choice would be offered to the govern
ment as between the injury to be sus-
tanned by curtailment of the postal serv-
ice, which would be extinction in some in
stances of our mail service, and on the
other hand the admission of large feet
of foreign tonnage to American register
and to the big mail subsidy granted under
the Frye bill. Americans would be taxed
for the benefit of foreign ship owners.
The acquisition by the Morgan syndicate
of sixlines of trans Atlantic steamers with
a prospect of getting more, would seem to
indicate that the syndicate has little conf
dence in the possibility of the passage of
the subsidy bill, or that it believes that it
may be able to secure the passage of a
bill through congress admitting to Ameri-
can registry vessels of foreign construc-
ton. Every now and then congress adj
mits foreign built vessel and so it has
established precedent for such registra-
tion.
1t is not impossible, indeed, for congress
to entertain such liberal view of the
subject that it may enact that foreign
built ships owned by Americans may be
given American registry. The recent large
acquisition of foreign bottoms is under
control of American capital. At one blow
American capital has acquired formid-
able and almost controlling amount OF
Atlantic tonnage. 1t may proceed to con-
troll the Pacific tonnage, most ,of which
will carry foreign flags The next step
may possibly be to transfer the whole &C
quired tonnage to our flag. Will such &C
,tionaeinjure our ship building industry?
Hardly 1t is very certain to stimulate 1T.
