To Please His Critics.

Half century ago Wagner was Sc
verely criticised in London for con-
Quoting concerts without score. He
was giving some Beethoven concerts,
and he knew the masters symphonies
by heart.
After the first performance one of
tie London papers scolded the COM
poser of "Tannhauser" for directing
the symphony without score in front
of him.
At the next concert young Wagner
had book of music open before him
on the desk.
The following day the same news
paper printed a commendatory article,
which praised him for his better inter-
probation of Beethoven, the improve
ment due, of course, to the use of the
score. Wagner announced for the
benefit of the critics that the score in
front of him on the previous evening
was that of Rossini's opera. 1.-The

"Ten Nights in a Bar Room"

When will the time come when "Tep
Nights in Bar Room" will lose it's
charm to the rising generation?
Judging by the present freshness, is
alluring powers will be perennial,
There is something in the skillful COM
bination of the pathetic and the hui
morous that never fails to- faseinate,
and the story that it tells of the poor
inebriate appeals directly to the finest
sensibilities of the human soul. Such
plays are more than sermons. They
point moral and adorn a tale. They
teach us lessons in thoughtfulness and
charity, They impress on our mind
the precepts of the golden rule. T. S.
Arthur's book is one of the greatest
books of literature, because it deals
with questions of Unreasonable human

The Horse-Here's to Him.

The Horse: Here's to that bundle
of sentient nerves, with the heart of
a woman, the eye of a gazelle, the
courage of gladiator, the docility of
slave, the proud carriage of king
and the blind obedience of a soldier;
the companion of the desert plain,
that turns the moist burrows in the
spring in order that all the world may
have abundant harvest, that furnishes
the sport of kings, that with blazing
eye and distended nostril fearlessly
leads our greatest generals through
carnage and renown, whose blood
forms one of the ingredients that go
to make the ink in which all history
is written, and who finally, in black
trappings, pulls the humblest of us
to the newly sodded threshold of eter-
ty."-Rider and Driver.

patronage" and the Spells of
Office,

The postal Investigations are extend
ing from the conditions of the general
service TO the organization of particu-
lar post-offices like that of New York
city. Wholly sporadic and unrelated
to these systematic Investigations are
the charges brought against Senator
Dietrich, of Nebraska, who is under
Indictment for having sold his in
fuence in getting a postmaster ap.
pointed for the city of Hastings, in his
State, and against whom there were
currents, last month, rumors of SINH
lar misconduct in connection with
other Offices. 1t is to be hoped, for
the credit Of American public life.
that Senator Dietrich, who protests
his innocence, may be able to clear
himself both of the legal charges
against him and also of all moral sus-
picion ofwrong doing. It may indeed
be a long step, on the part of the Sen
ator, from distributing postoffices in
return for political support to their
sale for cash; but from the standpoint
of the man who seeks the job it is not
always easy to make sure whether he
is paying the required money into the
campaign funds OF his party or into
the private pocketof some boss Or per-
son of superior influence who can give
the Office or withhold it at pleasure.
The plain fact is that Senatorial and
Congressional patronage is very bad
business. The function of aiding and
advising the Executive in the filling of
postmasterships and other federal
Offices does, indeed, properly belong
to the Senators and Representatives
from the States and districts affected;
but to transform this function of Civ
ing advice into theory of patronage
under which Senators and Congress
men own the Offices and distribute
them for their own personal benefit is
nothing short OF a degradation and q
shame. Improvement can come about
through no change Of the law or OF the
mechanism Of government. 1t can
only result from gradually improved

THE BEST KITCHEN UTENSILS.
English Paper Admits Superiority OF
German Methods.

The superiority of German house
hold and kitchen utensils over English
ones is discussed by correspondent
who instances as a delightful exam
pie, the china or earthenware rolling
pin, which has superseded our print
tive wooden one. 1t is almost super
fiuous to point out that it is more
easily and thoroughly cleaned and is
cooler for pastry baking than is the
wooden rolling pin. If the well-to-do
English woman were to work in her
own kitchen she would surely never
tolerate such a thing as the ordinary
jug, always narrower at the top than
at the base, and therefore impossible
to get clean, except with much unnec-
essary labor; she would invent a
soup spoon with lip at the side; and
she would insist on everyday cup and
jug and vegetable dish handles being
put on square, so as not to harbor dirt.

BARGAIN COUNTER POLITICS

The Ploneer-Press, usually ac-
curate in it's statements, on Tuesday
last contained the following re-
markable statements: "The ques-
ton of Judge Collins resignation,
it is said. will be settled today or
tomorrow. The reason why his res
ignation has not been handed in be-
fore this, according to report at the
capital yesterday, is because his sup
porters have not yet been able to
agree on successor.
Has it come to this in republican
politics in Minnesota, that a place
on the supreme bench is to be de-
liberately offered as a price of sup
port of a certain candidate for gov
ernor, and the man who can deliver
the greatest number of delegates to
get the plum? 1t might as we'll be
to put up to the highest bidder to
the man who would put the most
cash in a candidates campaign fund.
1t is just as disreputable to pur-
chase delegates with official posi-
tions as it is to buy them with
money. Why have the supporters
of Judge Collins any more right to
ssagree on his successor" than the
supporters of Bob Dunn or Frank
Eddy.
Judge Collins has just as much
right to run for governor as any
other man. He has the right to
resign his present position or not
just as he chooses. If he does re-
sign he should do so unconditlon-
ally and he ought not to have any
thing more to say about naming his
successor than any other citizen.
When his resignation is placed in
the Governors hands, if he does his
duty, and he generally does, he
will name some man like G. j.
Gunderson, of Alexandria, John
w. Mason, of Fergus Falls, Judge
P. E. Brown, of Laverne or some
other lawyer whose name will be a
guarantee to the people of the state
of his fitness for the position: and
who is in no way mixed up in the
gubernatorial struggle.
Just let the impression prevail
that the Judgeship was traded for
support for certain candidate, the
delegates to the next state conven-
ton Will do things to that Judge
and candidate.
The republicans of this state will
not stand for placing the supreme
court of Minnesota on the bargain
counter. i

REPRESENTATION IN CONVEN-
TONS

The American people in many re-
spects are the most progressive peo-
pie on earth, but on others they are
the most conservative. The manner
in which delegates are selected to
the national convention makes it
possible for states that under no
circumstances will select democratic
electors to name the democratic
presidential candidate and for states
hopelessly democratic to dictate the
republican choice.
The present method of selecting
delegates to national conventions is
Anticipated, unfair and unjust.
Party representation should be
based on the party vote cast.

THE PRESIDEN MESSAGE.

President Roosevelt in his annual
message to congress says in sub
stance: That the country is still
doing a good business at the old
stand, is making money and he is
glad of it.
That the new department of
Commerce and labor is good thing
and he wants it pushed along.
That the corporation and indi-
vidual should be treated alike.
That our money is worth 100
cents on the dollar and should be
kept so, and congress should tinker
other things and let the currency
alone.
That we need merchant marine
and if we had good political sense
we would have one.
That we can't have too many
good immigrants or too few bad
ones.
That before a foreigner is nat
uralized we should find out what
kind of man be is.
That bribe-takers and bribe-giv-
ers ought to sent to state prison
and we ought to be permitted to
catch them wherever the sun shines.
That free rural delivery and good
roads are blood-kin and both ought
to be encouraged.
That the beggarly remmanent of
our public domain should not be
stolen but utilized for homes.
That good way to make desert
land fruitful is to irrigate it.
That modern railway brakes are
better for the fingers than the old
fashioned ones and the law COM
polling their adoption should be en-
forced.
That the way to get better navy
is to build more ships.
That the regular army of the
United States can lick it's weight in
wild cats.
That the men who steal govern
ment lands, government timber or
government funds should be sent
to the penitentiary like ordinary
criminals.
That if 'civil service" is good
for one set of officials it is good for
another.
That the way to get an inter
oceanic canal is to dig it and the
sooner we start digging the quicker
we will get it.
That Uncle Sam got the bulge
on Canada in the Alaskan bound
airy decision.
That we are not having any
trouble to amount to anything with
any old country.
That there is nothing too rich fol-
an old soldiers blood.
That we are the people and he
don't care who knows it.
All of which is good republican
ism and good sense, but we can't
quite understand why the president
took so many words to say it.

doesn't, and no one would believe
him if he did. Those who have

events in this state know that the

Governor are hostile to the senators
