party now and will be next year. The
politicians of his party may advise him
that the solid negro vote (for in voting
they are indivisible) holds the balance
of power in the great central states OF
the union, and that in the states of
New York, New Jersey, Connecticut,
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois it is essential
to his party's success.
Unless J. mistake the temper of the
people of this country there will be the
same revolution in public sentiment aud
the same protest that was accorded in
1892 by the white people of the entire
union against the administration of
President Harrison for his attempt to
force negro domination upon the south,
and thus destroy that section and para
lyze the industries of the whole United
States.
This issue is forced upon us by the
president. He has made the gage of
battle, and we must meet it as becomes

thing.

JOHNNY FELL SHORT.
Popular Patriotic Comic Opera
Failed in Topeka.

Through the kindness of the Whitney
opera company Topeka was given a
glimpse of when Johnny Comes
Marching Home" at the Crawford last
evening. It was considerate on the
part of Mr. Whitney to allow his aggre-
popular opera over which New York
went wild, but if the people had known
how he has cheapened the production
for the benefit of western audiences
there would have been more $3.50 seats
to spare than were to be found last
night. 1t is little short of an outrage
on the theater-golng public to send out
company like that seen last night
and it would not have been done had
not the piece made. a wonderful success
in New York. Mr.. Whitney evidently
figured that the opera. could travel on
its reputation and the singing cast is
entirely secondary.
when Johnny Comes Marching
Home" is a patriotic opera calculated
to stir mems souls. and with q strong
company it would certainly do so. But
last night the big song hit of the piece,
My Own United States" was given a
very feeble encore. 1t was sung by a
young man whose name appears on the
bills as Algernon Aspland, and who
also had the leading role, that of Col
John Graham. He failed utterly at all
times to impart the vim and dash which
IS necessary to the success of all comic
operas, but especially so for when
Aspland may be- Is good singer in his
class. but he is out of his class in the
part in which hei appeared last night.
But this is not all. Every male part
in the production was Interestingly
weak There was not a good singer
among them. and the result was that
the solo parts were almost complete
failures.
The women in the company were
somewhat better than the men but they
were not up to the standard that the
people had fixed for such a high class
attraction. Miss Frances Merton has n
we'll trained soprano voice of consider
able power but she sings without feeling
and her work is decidedly mechanical
Blanch Boone as Cordelia Allen was
better and in one of her solos, Did He?
No He Didn't" near the close of the
performance she came the nearest to
scoring hit. Florence Quinn, who was
cast in the unimportant role of Robert
Pemberton appeared to have an excel
lent voice but she had little opportunity
to show what she can do. The quintette
in which she participated, The
Suwanee River" received more applause
than the supposed song hit of the opera,
My Own United States.''
1t is almost painful to dwell upon the
production for there were so few re-
deenling features in it. The chorus was
small and weak and the whole cast
bears the evidence of having been
cheapened for it's tour among the one
night stands of which Topeka is one
Hereafter anything that bears the name
