10 que signi6ca el modernismo, oca-

MIA.
Pero vienen los partidarios de
la nueva escuela, y nos dicen: En-
el perfodo de transici6n que atra-

del Arte, dos tendencias opuestas:
La Tradici6n y La Innovation; no.

lleza intensa y de justicia positiva.

Tales son las dos tendencias
rivales que Sc disputan el predomi-

Por mi parte, y como contribu,

Modernism, ell artista pretende
exaltar su psrsonali lad, triunfandc
d. los convencionalismox dogmati
c)s.
FL ModerniSmo es al Arte Ia
que la Utopia 4 la .sCiencia. Uu
punto de mira. UA Objetivo. Hay
u modernismo chico, careta ridf
cula del modernismo grande. E
primero es una presunci6u pedante
rabioSa y corrosiva de los ChNLos de-
Arte. FL segundo es el esfuerzC
noble, independence y her6ico d
los grandes innovadores.
En- este sentido, el Modernismc
es una esperanto, un progreso.
Yo veo en- la profanaci6n y

ula simpliflcaci6n; en- las inciertas
lineas, una investigation; en- la,

ell rena>imiento de uu primitivismo
sano, vigoroso y fecundo.
Para mi el Modernismo Simbo-

que despide, rasEa las tinieblas del
pensamiento, dejando yer en- lon

eagle quill pen, President Roosevelt,
at 10 o'clock tomorrow, will sign the
proclamation that will make Indian
Territory and Oklahoma state. No
ceremony will attend the signing, the
effect of which will be to put in mo-

Japan Blocks American Trade.
San Francisco, Nov. 15.-The
Chamber of Commerce Of this city
resolved to ask the California dele
cation in congress to inquire into the
action of Japan in alleged attempts
to override the treaty existing be-
tween the United States and Korea.
The matter was called to the atten-
ton of the commercial organization
by Fl. 81. Hubert, who, it is said, is
the official representative in Ameri-
ca of the deposed emperor of Korea.
Hubert addressed a communication
to the Chamber of Commerce in which
he stated that Japan had taken the
initial steps Of course, which, if
carried to fulfllment, would mean
the destruction of American influence
not only in Korea, but in China as
we'll. The United States has a close
trade treaty with Korea. Under
this agreement American goods enter
the hermit kingdom upon the pay
ment Of z per cent. duty. In the
process of reorganization of the af-
fairs Of Korea, Japan has undertak,

This arrangement, it is stated, con-

will be charged the same rate Of
