Charles 5. Konissberg, wrathy at the
alleged malicious forgery charges
brought against him by the West Coast
Life Insurance company of Denver,
with which he was formerly connected,

UTAH ARTISTS IRE
OPENLY SNUBBED BIZ
+ SITE FAR JUDGES
Failure to Award Prizes in Certain Glasses Because Pictures
"Are Out of Value" Raises Storm of
Protest.

Why did the judges in the art depart
ment of the state fair withhold the
| awards for three classes of paintings
which were clearly within the limita-
tons set for these awards?
This is the question that is upper
most in the minds of local artists at
present.
According to the rules and regula-
tons governing the award of prizes,
as printed by the State Fair associa-
tiOn these awards should have been
made unless it was the opinion of the
! judges that the article exhibited was
| worth less than the award offered The
| only limitations in this catalogue read
mo exhibit shown in any previous
Utah fair will be admitted in COMPETE
ton in this department" and mo
award will be made in this department
when, in the opinion of the judges, the
article is worth less than the premium,
though it may be the best of its kind
exhibited. Originality will be the first
consideration"
None of the pictures in the three de-
partments for which awards were with
held were ever exhibited at a fair in
Utah before; their originality cannot
be questioned; the judges will not say
that they were worth less than the
premiums offered, but. nevertheless
they were withheld. Puzzle: Find the
reason.
Fairbanks Statement.
For my part said j. Leo Fair
banks, Il feel pretty sore about it. Not
because l did not receive the prizes.
but because of the fact that the only
reason the judges could give, accord
ing to the rules and regulations. is that
the best exhibit there was not worth
the premium offered
This is the first time l have ex-
hibited at a state fair here in five
years. I did not do so willingly this
time, but so many friends asked me to
send out some of my own and my IA
theirs work that 1 finally sent some of
the best we had here.
My landscape in oil, A Rainy Night
in Paris was rejected by three APP
parently competent judges, and the
only reason visible is that it was not
worth the premium offered for that
class, which was $50. Now the fact of
the matter is, that 1 have refused $12;
for this picture. / hold it at $50, and
nothing less would take it, And other
artists Jared equally as bad in this
class.
There is no explaining the reason

pictures the secretary of the fair said

What reason could an artist have
Tor exhibiting his work at state
fair" said Mahonri NJ. Young, IF it
were not that he expected he would
stand chance to receive an award for
them? l speak not for myself. but for
artists in general. 1 take the with
holding of awards to all. when there
were pictures clearly within the limits
called for by the supervisors, as an af-
front to art in general. / worked hard
to make the art department of the fair
success, and so did my brother art
lists. Furthermore, 1 would not take
less than $50 for even the merest sketch
that l exhibited there, while the high
est award offered, with one exception,
was $35.
When | asked Professor Edward
Evans, one of the judges, why the
award was not made in the water color
landscape exhibit, he said that in my
case the exhibit was out of value.
Now / consider that the water color
exhibited there was the best / have
ever done. William NJ. Chase of New
York has purchased one of my water
colOrs; | have two in the Musee Car
navel in Paris, which were purchased
by the French government, and there
are several in private collections in
purchased for many times the amount
of the award offered.
What l want is that the awards be
made to some of the artists who exhib-
tied at the fair. If these awards are
not made, ] want a just and valid rea-
son from those in charge as tic why
they were not made"
Richards Is Puzzled.
Il am at a loss to understand why
these awards were not made" said L.
@. Richards. Il received prize of
800 for one of my works, and / suppose
should be satisfied, but / feel that
some explanation is due to those who
exhibited their work at the fair as to
why these awards were withheld. One
of these was a prize of $40 for the best
original flower painting. 1 had my
Corner of a Garden entered in this
class, and l can see no reason why it,
or some other i'm competition, was not
given the award. The only apparent
reason, according to the rules and reg
ulations, was that ii and others ex-
hibited We're out of value, but that has
been exploded since, for shortly after
its exhibition at the fair / sold this
picture for $40, a price which l con-
sidered to be very low.
Il want these prizes awarded to the
right parties, or if not. a reasonable
excuse from the state fair authorities
for not awarding them. The accommo-
dations for exhibiting pictures out
there were very bad, and we artists
worked hard to give the best showing
possible. All we asked was a square
deal, and 1 feel that we did not get it. -

TAFT SEEMS TO
HAVE A "HUNCH"
Continued From Pace 1.

Secretary Taft opened his address by
declaring that the future prosperity of
the Philippine islands depended pri-
marily on the Philippines themselves.
They must make progress as a nation
before they could obtain benefits real
lied by other nations and it was the
duty of business men and others con-
templating investment in the Philip
pines to help the natives to better
their condition. 1t was with the most
intense satisfaction that he came to
the islands today and found them
quieter than ever before in their his
tory. He was glad the assembly had
been established, and hoped it would
take over some of the responsibility of
the government. He said to capital
lists and others looking for franchises
and concessions that another power
had arisen in the land, and that here
after they must come to the assem-
bly, with their requests. He had no
doubt the assembly would carefully
consider all questions affecting the
welfare of the islands; that it would
not only look out for the interests OF
the people, but would welcome with
liberality the investment of foreign
capital absolutely necessary TO the de-
veIopment of the Philippines. The ex-
istence of the assembly would
strengthen the hand of the govern
ment, and the government was anxious
and ready to help the business pros
perity of the islands, in which the peo-
pie themselves were quite as much in
terested as the merchant.
Beginning of Prosperity.
b This was the beginning of period CT
prosperity, the speaker asserted. AMI
he thought that under it everybod V
would be happy and contented. 1t had
been charged in the past that the gov
eminent had not had proper sympathy
with the American merchants in the
islands. but this was not true. There
could be no prosperity IN the Philip
pines for anybody unless there was
prosperity for the Filipino people, and
when prosperity came ii would be d.
vided among all who had had the cour-
age to invest their capital and work
with energy.
The secretary declared that he was
not ashamed of anything in the islands,
and urged the Americans here to make
every effort to bring the Filipino peo-
pie to a realization of their wonderful
opportunity. He had been to the Phil
ippines three times already and he
hoped in another two years to visit the
islands again, but then he probably
would come as a private citizen.
Mr. Taft was greeted with cheers at
the close of his speech. This after
noon Secretary Taft laid the corner
stone of the first permanent school
built in Manila under the American re-
gime. He delivered a short address to
the principals of the school.
