done this year. The Democratic party
has achieved the feat of nominating
nine candidates for the assembly, every
man Of whom Is entitled to the most
unqualified respect of the public.
There is not one on the list who Is
backed merely by his party record,
but all are citizens of worth, OF high
ability. of unchallenged probity and
of st. Paul. There is not one of these
candidates for the assembly who does
not make the run at his own personal
cost There is not one who will not,
if elected, take up this office as mat
ter of conscience and as public duty
disagreeable to him, but owing by him
to the city in which he lives. There is
not one whose candidacy is not an
honor and a gift to the city. BY the
selection of such men and by securing
their assent to run. the Democratic
party has distinguished itself. BY
electing them without an exception by
the splendid majorities that they de-
serve, the community can show not
only that it appreciates party action
on a high plane, but that it is sensitive
and responsive to the claims that such
men when nominated have upon itself.
The nominees for aldermen in the
several wards are men of experience
and character. We shall refer to them
more particularly and in detail here
after, urging voters to throw their
ballots to those candidates who are
known to be of good report, who have
a high ideal of public duty and who
will not permit the claims Of any cor
porate interest or of any private pull
to influence them as against their pub
lie duty. We sincerely hope that in
the absence of stirring events in this
campaign the voters are determined to
embrace the opportunity now given to
them for securing and perpetuating
municipal conditions as nearly ideal as
human nature will permit. Democracy
appealsso the voters of st. Paul not only
in its name, but in that Of the cause Of
good government, with which in this
municipal campaign it is thoroughly
identified.

CHARITY AT HOME.

The disposition shown by the dis
pensers Of charity to give their own
neighborhoods the benefit of their phi
1anthropic impulses is one of the en-
couraging signs Of the timesF In for
mer days when an individual made up
his mind that the serving of his fellow
men with his hands and his heart was
his proper vocation, he fastened his
minds eye on the heather across the
sea, and became the president of a So
ciety for the Distribution Of Bandanna
Handkerchiefs Among the Hottentots,
or of some other organization whose
sphere OF action was equally remote.
In those days the philanthropist of the
East saw only thu vices of the West,

Hearst in Kansas.

The Hearst forces have been utterly
routed in the Wichita convention. There
are always some men in politics who
can be approached through the meth
DDS employed by Hearst but they are
neither numerous enough nor influen-
lal enough in Kansas to control
party in that state. And when it comes
to importing boomers to take charge Of
a convention Kansas draws the line.
If there is one place on earth where the
politicians want to run their own af-
fairs it is KanSas.-Kansas City Star.

THE MUSIC OF THE PRESENT.

This music of the future is surely
thy music and my music. beloved"
wrote enthusiastically the poet Lanier
to his wife after hearing for the first
time the "Tannhauser' overture. But
the organ grinder man still refuses to
acknowledge that it is the music of the
public. Yesterday was the first spring
day in st. Paul, and the street organ,
truer harbinger of spring than the I'M
certain crocus and the deceitful robin,
exhausted it's repertoire on the street
corners; but it was noticeable that not
a single Wagner composition was in
Guided in the medley of the truly
popular" that it ground out. And while
the too sensitive may rejoice over the
fact, it must, nevertheless, be accept
ed as a proof that the German has not
yet arrived.
For there is no more conservative
musician in the world than the man
who operates a street organ. Every
body on the street may be whlstling
'Bedelia," but the organ grinder man,
knowing his public, continues to grind
out the "Intermezzo" and 1.-TWO Little
Girls in Blue" the "Miserere" and
Jenny, Put the Kettle On" the holy
City, and "McGinty." Well, he knows
that tomorrow "Bedelia" may not be
recognized; that were he to add it
hastily to his repertoire it might be
dubbed internal noise" by the very
people who today pride themselves on
knowing what it is when they hear it.
AS for those compositions which are
honored by having a place in his rep
ertoire, they were compelled to prove
themselves indisputable public favor
ties before they were tucked away in
the music box of the organ. The pub
lie whistled them, not for a day, but
for a season; and by that token the
organ grinder man knew that they
were accepted.
The repertoire of the street organ is
very fair reflection of the musical
taste of the general public That that
taste is not utterly and hopelessly and.
decadently popular Is evidenced by the
fact that Verdi and Mascagni and
Mendelssohn are sandwiched in with
the unknown composers of well-known
compositions If Annie Rooney at
tracts the most attention, it is only
just to say that the Spring Song"
draws a respectable gathering. And if
it is an indisputable fact that a straw
vote would show that "You Are MY
Honeysuekle" was the winner, neither
can 1t be denied that there would be
very respectable number Of votes
cast for the anvil Chorus" For all
of these the public recognizes. But
until "Elsa's Dream floats out from
the street organ, it cannot be said
that Wagner has received public rec
ignition; and until he does receive this
recognition Wagnerites cannot claim
that the music of the creator of ''Parsi-
fal' has become the music Of the
present.

The ALTITUDE OF RUSSIA.


According to the German and Eng
hsh news agencies, the Russians are
treating Americans residing within
the war zone in the far East with such
rigor as to evidence a disposition to
prosecute the individuals for the sins
Of the nation they represent. There
is, however, reason to believe that the
sources Of these reports are affected
by national and political influences.
Until we are positively assured that
the Russian authorities at Mukden
have arrested several Americans with
out cause, and have made one to dis
appear mysteriously, and that these
Americans are non combatants and
entitled to the protection of the flag,
there need be no alarm felt. The
principal object of Great Britain and
Germany just now Is to involve the
other powers with Russia, and their
ends would assuredly be promoted if
our relations with the ears govern
ment were disturbed.
Even though the report be true and
Americans have been imprisoned at
Mukden, there is nothing in the pro-
ceeding to warrant us in making trou-
BILE. 1t is most assuredly the business
of the federal government to maintain
the rights of our citizens travelling
through or residing in foreign coun-
into the methodsAbf life and claims to
citizenship Of many so-called Ameri-
cans sojourning on foreign soil. There
are some very queer citizens of the
world going about the Orient Haunting
the starry banner in the faces Of the
natives. Many Of them are soldiers
Of fortune, owning no flag or country
other than the one under whose ban
ner they are for the time enlisted.
That many Of these men have sub
scribed to the cause of the Japanese
is not to be doubted. There are among
them chevaliers of fortune who would
be very likely to accept service with
the Japs in secret Investigations, the
nature Of which, if discovered, would
render them liable to be treated as en-
emies or spies if captured on Russian
soil.
It is matter for grave concern if
the Russian authorities have deprived
American citizens Of their lives or lib
erty, but 1t should be gravely inquired
into, not made the basis for hystericat
protest. 1t Will probably be found that
Russia has proceeded with a proper
regard for the rules prescribed by the
comfy of nations. The fact that the
Russian authorities have hanged an
Englishman at Mukden is not to be
considered at all. The peace of the
world would be promoted If there were
more Englishmen hanged at Mukden
and some other places along the coast
line Of Eastern Asia.

To Democracx,s Credit.

There have been but few happenings
In the history of political life more
creditable to the intelligence, integrity
and patriotism of the American peo-
pie than the reputation by the Demo-
Gratis of the entire country of Mr.
Hearsts presidential pretensions. These
pretenSions were monstrOus in spirit
and form, and that they have been
flung aside and trampled under foot,
While matter for public rejoicing, is
especially honorable to the national
Democracy. 1t has been thus settled,
for the present and the future, that no
vulgar pretender, no unspeakable DEM
agogue, no creature Of millions, can
either force or buy his way to the
presidency Of the United States.-PhiI-
