THE TWINS OF BlSTRITZ.
Originality Marks the Creation
Throughout:

Prescott, March 6, Editor Journal
Miner:-In "The Twins of Bistritz'
Mrs. Smith has achieved a work Of
unusual worth in many respect!
which has not yet received comment
in the press.
! Time after time, the frequenter Of
the opera listens to performances which

him in the search for other music,

not unreasonable to expect that thi:
experience would be repeated last Fri
day. But the contrary appeared.
From the first note of the overture tc
the last chord of the finale new ,melo-
dies, bubbling spontaneously, greeted
the audience. The opera is rich in
melody, fresh and sparkling, and all
without any suggestion that the CON-
poser has been influenced by Beethov-
en- or Mozart, by Verdi or Wagner OF
any other great worker in this act.
Not even the style Of former works is
here. There is no Wagnerian blare
and buster, no Italian Torture, but
originality marks the creation
throughout, and withal it is fine orig
inality.
The orchestration is most excellent,
the intermezzo being especially, graft
flying and giving hint of the gypsy
march which is heard in the second
act. 1t is musicianly and the climaxes
are skillfully reached.
No incongruous Phrases are loosely
united, no forced progression to
bridge deep CULTS between one mnsi-
cal idea and its successor, but all
moves as harmonious whole, without
break or jar to mar the enjoyment of
the listener. These features are signifi-
cant indications of genius insistently
seeking utterance through music.
The solos we're remarkable for their
beauty and simplicity, each phrase
seeming the natural and inevitable
companion of its fellows. The Choir
uses were fine examples Of skillful
harmonIzation especially that at the

having continuous healthy growth,
and is destined to take a proud place
among the commonwealth comprising
our country.
The aspirations of the citizens OF
Arizona should not be unreasonably
checked, hut, on the contrary, should
be encouraged, and their loyalty and
constructive energy should be reward
ed in conformity with the theory OF
our constitution, and as like loyal
effort by others has been rewarde
elsewhere.
These good people should have indie
pendent statehood, and in taking such
action congress will make no mistake,
and there can be no valid objection
on the part of any we'll informed
American.

music, that is its appropriateness to
the sentiment which seeks exnression
FOR instance the Priscilla song is fplI
OF the self satisfaction of that admira-
ole splnster, a satisfaction cIoudad
only by the circumstance that other
recognize her charms less clearly than
herself; the Sunshine duet in which
love and happiness throb in every
note; the chorus before mentioned at
the close of the second act, where dis
cord voices the violent grief of the
bereaved parents. And so the music
and the story run together. If the
emotions are to be touched the music
is sweetly melancholy or poignantly
sad. If tine incident is gay the score
is merry and sprightly. There is none
of that fault sometimes prominent. of

word and the WORD to the action, as
Hamlet enjoins.
It might be that larger part for
bass and contralto voices would not
detract from the merit of the ensem-
BILE, but that is a matter of personal
opinion rather than artistic necessity,
and in no way detracts from the beau

it will take among works of art. Mrs.
Smith has reason to be proud of her
work, and Prescott, surely to be proud
of her. A. Fl.

SOME LEGISLATIVE WORK

The legislature does not seem to be
transacting much business of general
importance to the territory. a bill
providing against the employment of
teachers in the public schools, aftiict-
ed with tuberculosis was passed by the
council.
new anti gambling bill has also
been introduced.
A county division bill providing for
a slice of Pinal county being added to
Pima was introduced in the house on
Friday.
A bill to encourage fraudulent vot-
ing in the counties bordering on Mex
leo was passed by the house. As orig
inally drafted this bill provided for
voting everybody living in Sonora,
who would swear that at some future
time they intended to reside in Ari-
IONA. As amended and passed it was
not quite so raw as the original draft,
but is raw enough to permit of all
sorts of election frauds, If passed by
the council. Anderson and Hull, of
Yavapai county, voted against it.
The house also passed bill impos-
ing a tax of ten cents per head on

MINSTRELS

The Phoenix Elks' Ministries will
play in Phoenix on Thursday and
Friday evenings of this week and will
then come direct to Prescott to keep
their engagement for Saturday even
ing. In describing their entertain
ment the Phoenix Republican says
that "they have been trained night
and day by Mackenzie Gordon, until
they reached the point of perfection.
In every other minstrel show that has
ever shown in Phoenix the chorus has
merely carried the refrain of the song.
The Elks chorus is unique in this,
that the entire chorus sings in parts,
that Is to say that the tenors sing ten
or, the bariitones baritone and the
bsssos bass, throughout the entire
song. There will be six solos during
the first part, all rendered by we'll
known singers and the songs the very
latest. The second part will consist
of vaudeville sketches, both beautiful
and funny, one of which is an Indian
dance and song, personally conducted
by Mr.. Mackenzie Gordon. The beau
tiful costumes used in this act are
valued at over one thousand dollars
and have been kindly loaned to the
lodge by Brother Paul Brizzsrd. -

A PIONEER
SUMMONED

Guilford Hathaway, one of the old
est and most highly respected citizens
of Prescott died on Sunday morning
about O'Clock after an illness lasting
with paralysis about month ago the
entire right side of his body being af-
fected and while at times be would
apparently rally his condition grew
gradually worse until death afforded
him relief.
Mr.. Hathaway was born in Massa-
chusetts in 1875, hence at the time of
his death was seventy years old. He
came to Arizona in 363 and has re-
sided here continuously ever since
and won and maintained the respect
of all with whom he b. cane acquaint-
ed.
He served one term as member of
the legislature, but ala not take kind
ly to politics as a calling though al
ways taking keen interest in them
as a citizen.
After twelve years residence here
he induced his cousin, Barney H.
Smith, at present a member of the
board of supervisors to locate in
Prescott.
Deceased was an active and ardent
member of the Masonic fraternity, be-
ing connected with Aztlan lodge No.
1 of Prescott and the funeral will be
conducted under the auspices of that
lodge.
One brother and two sisters in Mas
sachusetts and brother in California
survive him.
The funeral is announced to take
place this afternoon from Nevin's un-
dertaking parlors at o'clock.

A council bill which has been up
before several legislatures, prohibit
ing one not belonging to a secret order
from wearing the insignia of such or
der was passed by the house and now
goes to the governor for his signature.
Societies requiring the offered protec-
ton must pay 81. 30 for filing with the
secretary of the territory facsimile
of their insignia. 1t looks as though
it might remain a dead letter on the
statute books if signed by the COVER
nor as no elamor has been noticeable
from secret societies for such alleged
protection.

The Journal Miner is indebted to
DR.. R. L. Looney, member of the
council from this county for copy OF
the superior court bill. The bill is
an infamous one unless it is amended
so that only counties desiring such an
institution may be allowed the privi-
lege of having them. Yavapai county
does not want any superior court, and
would not know what to do with it if
it should be forced upon US by the
legislature, so we implore the mem
bers of the council to spare us from
the lnfiiction. Give such a court to
every county that wants but it let US
off from is provisions.

JUDGE TUCKER ENDORSED.

The Journal Miner has received a
number of Nebraska papers which
speak in very complimentary terms Of
Judge Tucker, recently appointed as
sociate justice of this territory, both
as to his character and standing as a
man and his ability for the position.
At the time of his appointment he
was a member of the Nebraska senate
and his fellow members passed very
| fiattering resolutions in reference to
him. The following from political
opponent of Judge Tucker, which was
published few days ago in the Phoe-
nix Republican, will serve to correct
some slanderous statements, concern
ing the newly appointed associate jus
tice, which have found their way into
print in this territory:
CDR. F. c. Wiser, of Nebraska, who
is spending the winter in Phoenix, is
personal acquaintance of Judge
Tucker recently appointed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt as judge of the first
district of Arizona. He called atten-
ton yesterday to the publication in
the Tucson Citizen of a clipping from
the Nebraska Independent, on which
the Citizen commented, not disre-
spectfully of the judge, but dipsara-
gIngly of the federal administration
and its Nebraska representatives who
may have had something to do with
his appointment.
1.-THE clipping referred to says Judge
Tucker is Unfit and wholly unquali-
fed DIR. Wiser says it is that state
ment that he desires to take issue
with, not caring what the Citizen may
think of the national administration.
DIR. Wiser says he is himself a demo-
crat and therefore not a partisan of
Judge Tucker but as fellow citizen,
knowing him personally and knowing
his standing in the state and county
of his residence, he desires to say
that the comment of the Nebraska In
dependent is entirely unjust, unwar-
ranted and uncalled for. He says
Judge Tucker is highly respected by
Nebraska people regardless of party
affiliations and that he is con ;idered
an able lawyer and we'll qualified for
his new duties.
ITO explain the animus of the un-
favorable mention, DR.. Wiser says
further, that the Nebraska independ-
ent is not the sort of PAPER that
Judge Tucker would expect to say
nice things about him. 1t is popu-
list sheet supported mainly by the
third party cranks and soreheads, and
one of the sort that does not command
the respect of either of the two parties
that represent the major part of the
political sentiment of the state. DR..
Wiser has no doubt of Judge fuckers
ability, or that he will be warmly
welcomed when he reaches Arizona
but since he is not here to defend
himself, he takes pleasure in refuting
the SANDER against the reputation of
a worthy man and fellow Nebraskan. "

1t transpires that the legislature
will not redistrict the territory to
make room for the new fifth judge.
That matter will be left to the judges
themselves and it is said that it has
been already practically arranged,
changing the boundaries of the pres
ent judicial districts. Judge Tucker,
who will succeed Judge Davis, will
have Cochise county and it being &C.
copied as already done, that Assistant
United State Attorney John H. Camp
bell will be appointed to the place
just created, he will be located at Tue
son, his district consisting of Pima
and Santa Cruz. -Republican.

WELL DESERVED HONOR.

The news which reached Prescott
yesterday of the elevation of our wor
thy townsman, Hon. E. S. Clark, tt
the distinguished position of attorney
general of Arizona territory, will be
hailed with delight by all classes, but
more particularly by those who
are intimately acquainted with the
gentleman and know the sterling worth
and capacity for infinite and painstak-
ing labor which he has evinced during
his residence in Yavapai county.
Honor does not always come in due
| time and season to those who most de-
serve it, but while there is much food
for thought in this direction, il is a
matter for the sincerest congratulation
that the consistent and conscientious
discharge of obligations and undevia-
ting adherence to the path of duty, as
exemplified in the official career of
Nh. Clark, have now received their
reward and that that faithfulness in
the performance of smaller duties has
brought as it always does, sooner or
later, its inevitable reward.
On the advice of ex-Attorney Gen
eral Kibbey, rendered to Acting Gov
ernor Nichols, Mr.. Clark was yester-
day chosen to fill the vacant position
of attorney general and We have every
ao.Gla.41 haA h. Mill hrirn 70 hn
discharge of his new duties an intelli-
gent and comprehensive knowledge of
territorial legal affairs which cannot
but rebound to increased efficiency in
our administrative machinery.
Mr.. Clark has for several years past
been very favorably known as law
practitioner in the territory, begin
ming his practice at flagstaff, coming
to Prescott about four years ago. In
til December 3lst of last year he was
district attorney of Yavapai county
and his record in this position will be
hard to eclipse. 1t can be asserted
fearlessly that he has never permitted
any selfish consideration or any other
untoward motive to stand in his way
when a disagreeable duty required to
be discharged, and the many efforts
which he has made to save the taxpay-
ers of this county from unjust bur-
dens will be long and favorably re-
membeIed.
There is perhaps no more eloquent
example of the virtue IF self help to
be found in Arizona today than Mr..
E. S. Clark, and it is with the object
of pointing out this example that We
wish to direct attention to the earlier
portion of Mr.. Clark's career. -Four
teen years ago he was worker in the
ranks of the workers for then he held
the position of foreman in the Jour-
nal Miner office. He occupied this
position with honor to himself and
profit to the proprietor, but his ex-
pansive mind could not be circum-
scribed and he was, about the time
mentioned, appointed as supervisor of
the Arizona census.
The successful study of law, and
successive steps assembled up the legal
ladder brought him finally into lu-
crative practice and later events in his
career are too we'll known to our read
ers to need recapitalation.
We wish Mr.. Clark every success in
his new sphere of activity and are
satisfied that the present honor has
been we'll earned and will be but the
forerunner of greater honors to come
in the future.
