Stencil Pianos.

The following article appeared in
the Musical Courier Extra of Sept. IA,
the leading piano journal in this coun-
try. 1t is a fitting tribute to the great
house OF Thos. Goggan & Bros. of
Texas:
This will certainly answer our cor
respondents inquiry regarding the at
utude of the President Of the Nation
al Piano Manufacturers Association
as regards the stencil, and if our cor
respondent will kindly look up the
matter i'm Piano Quality. it will be
noticed that it states there definitely
that the Goggan Piano is manufacture
ed for Thomas Goggan & Brother and
is marked XX Stencil.
AS far as the house of Goggan is
concerned. all in the trade know that
il never has used the stencil in any
but the most conscientious manner It
has never claimed anything but that
the Goggan Piano was manufactured
under the directions of the head of
the house. and that never has there
been any attempt to create the inn
preston that the Goggan house man
ufactured. No house stands higher in
the commercial world. and no house
is more honest in its claims about
pianos. II would be impossible for
John Goggan to do dishonest act,
and he will under no consideration
allow any salesman. as far as he can
control him. to make any statement
regarding the Goggan piano. OF any
other piano handled by the big Texas

has never been any attempt to con-
ceal where the Goggan piano is man

way, and if we accept the statements
of Mr.. Bush there can be no wrong
when a house openly states where
the piano bearing the name of deal

turer of that piano does not attempt
to hide that fact. Our correspondent
can rest assured that there is nothing
shady in anything the house of Cog

The negroes in Washington got a
very decided slap in the face the other
day when equality was the issue. The
veterans of the Spanish-American war
by a decided vote refused to allow the
negro heroes to come into the camp
as members. This is a surprise to
the rest of the country who have been
led to believe that the negro was pre-
ferred stock up in that section. The
northern people are declaring their
position very frequently these days.
and the sentiment of the South in
this question is very largely the senti-
ment of the North. East and West.

1T is A GOOD LAW.

it was the first time within her mem

II Hearst is a man of his word,
which a great many will deny, he Is
not a candidate for the presidential
nomination on any kind of ticket.
This does not carry with it, however,
we suspect, a promise to stand up and
root for the element that has been
knitting him on every occasion. This
would be too much to expect from
such man as Hearst is charged with
being by his enemies.

Road Maintenance.

Some have an idea that the perma-
nent roads, so called, will or ought to
last forever without any repairs be-
cause they cost SO much to build.
With that same kind of reasoning we
would have right to expect that n
modern thraShing machine that costs
several thousand times as much as the
old fashioned fail ought to last forever
without cent expended for repairs.
And that while a violin that costs So
has to lie tuned and have new strings,
one costing Il thousand dollars should
never need new strings and should be
ways stay in tune. \ good road Is
worth, for business or pleasure. sew
eral times as much as a bad road, and
some portion of this we can afford to
eXpend In keeping 1t in good condition.

FUNCTIONS OF THE STATE.
Interesting Analysis Made by Bishop
Stang of Fall River.

In recent address in st Mary's
cathedral Bishop Stang of Fail River
thus analyzed the functions of the
state:
"Thc state should not absorb the
rights of individuals, but should keep
them inviolatc unless they clash with
the common good and the interests of
others. The proper office of the GOV
eminent is to foster public we'll being
and private prosperity by maintaining
peace and good order, safeguarding
family life, respecting religion and
furnishing evil doors.
civil authority may step in to in
terferc if through strikes there is i'm
minent danger of disturbance to the
public peace, if in workshops and fac
tories there is danger to morals
through the mixing of sexes or from
any occasion of evil, if the health of
labOrerS is endangered by excessive
work or the want of sanitary arrange
mentS or if labor is unSuitcd to sex or
age, but the state should not intervene
in or NEEDLE with private concerns any
further than is required for the rem
edy of the evil or the removal of the
danger The state should not only
protect private ownership as some
thing sacred and invioable, but its pol
Icy should be to induce as many people
as possible to become owners. The
posseSSor of the poorest cabin will not
change it for the dreams of a socialis-
tic paradise"

A PUBLIC OWNERSHIP PERIL.
1t Would Intrench Corrupt Political
Bosses Permanently In Power.


Referring to the recent announce
ment that 51,146 persons are on the
payroll of New York city, the Newark
Advertiser declares that in the event of
municipal ownership of street railways,
electric light and gas plants, ferries
ana other public utilities the city en-
ployeeS would constitute a political
army that would make change of adj
ministraton impossible.
1t recalls the fact that $4,000 city
employees in Philadelphia kept Phlla-
delphia in the hands of the corrupt
Durham machine for years and only Il
great popular uprising finally over
threw the grafters.
IF Durham had had control of the
street railroads and other public utlli-
ties in Philadelphia through municipal
ownership" it observes, "he could have
laughed at popular uprislngs. He
would have been as absolute in his au-
thority as the car"
The point is we'll taken.
In other cities the political situation
under public ownership would be as IT
would in Philadelphia and New York,

A JUDICIAL WARNING.
Justice Brewer of United States Su'
preme Court on Public Ownership.


There is this important difference
between public and private indebted
ness: The individual may mortgage his
home or other property. and if the pur-
pose for which the mortgage Is given
proves failure the property may be
lost to him, and on his death his heirs
simply receive so much less than they
otherwise would. but the Indebtedness
casts no burden upon them. 1t may
wipe out his entire property and they
receive nothing. To that extent they
may suffer if failure to inherit prop
crty can be called suffering. But pub
lie Indebtedness is of Il different char
actcr 1t does not wipe out property
now existing, but it casts burden
upon the industries and toll of those
who come after us Interest and prn-
Cipal are met by taxes, and taxes con
tinuc from age to age until the debt Is
paid. They who come after us, who
may receive little or no benefit from
the debt, are called upon to contribute
the proceeds of their labor to its pay
ment. In other words, while private
llutbttNlllPNS ubtS llbl lIpl SdSC vi III
Cumbcr future industry and labor, pub
lie Indebtedness does. And in pilinG
up public Indebtedness we too often
forget that the future will have its bur
dcns-that there will be demands upon
it for expenditures. improvements and
convenicnces corresponding to the life
of that day will be needed. SO that
there is injustice in creating public
Indebtedness for improvements which
will be mainly available in our day
and only to Il slight degree of benefit
to those who's come after us. Indeed,
generally speaking, it is fair to leave
each generation to determine what
amount of public burdens it will as
sumo, and each should take care of its
own public Indebtedness. - LcSlie'S
