ParlOr Concerts.

Parlor Concerts.
Theladies of the Lutheran Church
of the Redeemer are arranging tor
series of parlor concerts to be
given at the parsonage. The first
concert in the series will be given
on next Friday night. In answer
to the inquiry whether these con,
certs will be given for the entertain
ment of the members Of the. Luth-
eran congregation alone, it is aD-
nounced that all " II be welcome
and it is hoped that many friends
not members of the congregation
will be present. Tickets, the price
of which will be fifty cents, will be
on sale by the young ladies and at
Mayes' book store. There will be
no half tickets for this entertain
mene, but a program is being ar
ranged for children's concert to
be given on some Saturday after
noon in the near future. While the
parsonage, which was arranged
with a view to the social needs OF
the congregation, will accommodate
a large number of persons, that
number must necessarily be limited
and it is hoped that those who will
attend will procure their tickets
early. Another reason why this is
desirable is the fact that light re-
treshments will be served.
The program will be as follows;
Part 7irst-Male Quartette,
Messrs. Black, Fulner, Eleazar and

CHAIRMAN WARDEN, of the Wis
consin democratic state central com
mIttee, is in danger of being read
out of the party by the Commoner
In his recent call for a state conven-
ton be says: "All voters of Wis
consin, irrespective of past party af-
tiliation, who believe in democratic
principles, are urged to cooperate
in electing delegates to the conven-
ton" Wisconsin is a normally re-
publican state. To make it demo-
cratic-to!wi voters who be-
lieve III democratic principles are
asked to enter the primaries. There
might arise in this state or in Ne
braska a question as to what con
stitutes democratic principles, "
but Chairman Warden assumes that
each voter will settle this question
for himself and act accordingly.
This is the position the party should
assume in the national contest.
The democratic party wants to win
and should invite to its standard
every voter opposed to Roosevelt
and Rooseveltian methods.
