Don't be grumbier. Some people
contrive to get hold of the prickly side
of everything, to run against the sharp
corners and find out all the disagree
able things. Half the strength spent
in growing would often set things
right. No one ever found the world
as he would like it, but you are to take
your share of the troubles and bear
them braveiy. You will be very sure
to have troubles laid on you that be-
long to other people, unless you are

the work needs doing, and you can do
it, never mind about the other people
who ought to hsve done it and didn't.

to harmonize with the sound without"
The foregoing quotation is apt, for
It is so true as to become apparent to
nearly every person who gives this
subject earnest, impartial considera-
tion. There is something about mu-
sic that enthralls and intoxicates the
average person. 1t is a source of
amusement to persons, and is too ga
cred to be treated in light manner.
There is, in my opinion. music that is
really source of delight to those who
know nothing about tones, harmonies,
symphonies, intonations, cadencies,
etc.; it is that class of selections which
Come home to person, as it were.
Every Country. l presume, has its ma
tlonal anthems, which never fail, no
matter where on how often they are
played, to cause the patriotic citizen to
doff his cap in honor of his native land, or
In remembrance of his nation s heroes.
To understand this fact fully we only
need to hear band strike up one of
our national anthems; such as "When
Johnny Comes Marching Home" fol-
lowed by "The Brave Boys in Blue"
who made history while the shot and
shells were screaming upon the battle
field, or sour Country 'Tis of Thee" etc.
And there are also religious hymns
which arouse our latent love of music
when rendered. Take the "Rock of
Ages" Jerusalem" and "Nearer Nv
God to Thee" and you may realize the
potency of that class of music so pop
ular to lovers OF music.
There is another class of music which
appeals to nearly every person. 1t is
what our eighteen carat musician
scornfully dubs rag-time, but which is
the music cf the soul. A few of the
popular melodies may be- saId to begin
with "Under the Old Apple Tree" GO
ing on to my Old Kentucky Home"
or "Where the Silvery Rio Grande
Wends Its Way" and thus we are lit
orally carried away with the song Of
the heart, "Home, Sweet Home" A
great deal might be written relative to
popular music, and by popular
music l mean that class of music
which does not weary US.
In conclusion will add that music
is not oniy an amusement but bene-
fit to mankind, and to what constitutes
true music-well, after all that's a
matter of personal opinion. ERID.

the crying of being in terror, in NOR
tai anguish, or hilarious from triumph;
the longing for the hearts desire; or
the imitation of despairing. hopeless,
or dying person, and still derive less
comprehensive enjoyment than they
would from hearing the bally-hooinp
of some popular song.
One does not need to be versed In
musical lore to be lover of music,
but, think, person requires a good
knowledge of the rudiments of music
to derive pleasure from listaning to
the rendition of classical selections.
Of course, such rhythmic, harmonic
music blended with orchestral ideas
is entertaining to nearly every one,
but to say that the uon-musician OBJ
tains pleasure from such music is, 1
think, overdrawing facts. And yet,
many persons prefer such music in
stead of the popular variety. Why
l suppose it is desire to be on the
big band wagon, tho, like Mr.. Dooley,
dunno.
The power Of music is somewhat re-
markable. 1t seems to enter into q
persons system and stimulates the
nervous system SO that the average be-
ing feels like two-year-old colt when
turned into pasture after being shut
up for weeks. It is unnecessary to
delve into this phase of my subject be-
cause you know how soldiers, especial
ly. become transported into fiery oppo-
nents by the playing of patriotic airs.
Again you may observe the effect of
music most any day; especially Sun
day morning when the band begins to
play. But to accomplish this remark
able change in the nOn-musician it is
necessary to execute popular air, or
play some lively tune. l have marched

Ham while our local Beau Hummels
ripped the air with something great
and said person never batted an eye,
but just as soon as the star aggrega-
tion returned to earth, playing lively
march, lit might have been a two-step
or waltz) this person began to tread
on the air.
In connection with the effect of mu-
sic on persons have made brief
summary of an editorial from an ex.
change. 1 admit being somewhat sur
prfsed at the facts imbedded in the
following:
"We are just beginning to realize
that in music we have great curative

| The tension would increase to sixty

eighteen to twenty in a minute. Long
before this music has been suited to
occasion and feeling. The war song
of the aborigine is quite different from
his funeral march. The effect of mu-
sic upon individuals varies with tenn

respond more quickly than persons

"THE MIKADo" BARRED.

OF course our British cousins will be
unable to see anything funny in the re-
cent action of their play censor in bar
ring THE Mikado,'' but the rest of us
will be pardoned if we smile. The rea-
son given for the exclusion of the OPP
era is the fear that the feelings of
the emperor of Japan may be just a
little bit hurt. The joke about the mat
ter is that '"The Mikado" is fifteen or
twenty years old, that its book and mu-
sic were written by distinguished Brit
ish authors and that it has. in the
course of its merry life, been produced
thousands of times in England.
1t is rather late in the day to begin
being careful of the feelings of Japan
emperor. The chances are that he new
er heard of the opera, that he never
will hear of it. And if ne did, he
wouldn't care a rice straw about it.
But Great Britain is smuggling up
mighty close to Japan these days. She
doesn't want to take any chances. We
are hoping, though, that President
INOOSONCi7 Jul VI Aio SiNo1 NV ADA NhtO
Japanese, will not attempt TO prevent
further productions Of 1.-THE Mikado"
in this country.
We have revivals of it every once in
a while. and many of US who have
heard it often go to hear it again. 1t
is full of mighty good music; not the
classical style, you know, but the sort
that appeals to the lighter side, the
sort that you want to whistle the next
day. Why. the "Tit-Wiliow song alone
ought to save 1.-The Mikado." The OPP
era contains lots of other songs that
really deserve to live.

ARuslNEss PROPOSITION.

The public will watch with interest
the plan of the American council
,snen to dodge the issue raised by the
resolution introduced some time ago
providing for the award of the city's
advertising to the lowest competitive
bidder. That resolution has been buried
in committee now for some weeks, but
a little ruse attempted in the council
on Monday night shows that the idea
OF competition is distasteful to the ad-
lninistration, and that the majority in
control of the council means to evade
the issue if possible.
On pretext of meeting the conditions
imposed by new laws, an ordinance was
introduced which would enable the city
engineer to include advertising costs in
all estimates of public work on which
bids are received, but the ordinance
did not provide for competition in the
advertising nor did it limit the cost.
If the ordinance had been adopted
the present system could be continued
of giving all advertising to a party
organ at any figure it chooses to name
as a reward for party services. Not
only this, but if the estimates were high
enough. the newspaper securing the ad-
vertising could charge ten prices if it
saw fit. and the property owner would
have to stand ii without any possible
recourse in law.
Unhappily for the scheme proposed
on Monday, Councilman Fernstrom de-
tected the job concealed in the ordi-
nance and fought it hard enough to Sc
cure postponement by reference to Il
committee.
1t goes without saying that the
project will be railrOaded through the
council yet. if the Americans" can
muster nerve enough to take the conse-
quences of the plan and assume the
responsibility for non-competitive ad-
vertising which costs the property own
er from three to four times as much as
he would have to pay If the advertis-
ing were let on bids as other public
work is
There is no more reason why the pub
lie should be mulcted for high prices
on this business than there would be
for paying three prices for gravel or
concrete. The Herald would not care
10 compete for the business because its
prices are too high; but there are other
newspaper in Salt Lake which would
be glad to publish all the city's adver-
Using at one-half the price now paid,
and probably for even less. That being
true, as evidenced by the price the
county pays for its tax list advertising,
there is no excuse for the councils per-
sistence in assessing the property own

MO SQUARE DEAL HERE.

Back of the delay in the admission
of Oklahoma is a despicable job TO de-
prive the Democrats of seven electoral
votes in the next presidential election
q delay for which the president alone is
responsible although the plan has the
approval of the managers of the Re-
publican party.
For the first time in the history of the
country, the proposed constitution of a
new state has been made the pretext
for Withholding the presidential proc
lamation of admission because some of
the provisions of the constitution do
not meet the personal views of the
chief executive. Always. heretofore, it
has been the rule to fight out the dues-
ton OF admission in congress. When
once congress has passed the enabling
act and prescribed the terms of admis-
sion. the formal constitution has been
approved when submitted without dis
cussion andIhe state admitted as pre-
scribed by congress.

toral vote for the Democratic candi-
date if il were admitted in time to par
ticipate in the next election. Notwith-
standing the law and the usage in such
cases, the speaker of the house and the
president are understood to have fixed
up plan to delay admission until too
late for effect in the presidential cleo
ton solely for the partisan advantage
