Harold Bauer,

After Paderewski, Harold Bauer. Aft
er in point of time just one MONTH as
he makes his only appearance in Salt
Lake Monday, March 9. and after in the
sense that many of the best critics
think that the mantle of the elder will
fall upon this one of the younger pi-
anistS.
Bauer began to play as a violinist
and made his first public appearance
when about 10 years old. He had also
studied the piano, but did not dream
of a career as a piano virtuoso until
the great Paderewski heard him and
urged him to devote himself exclusive
ly to piano. In 1892 he went to Paris
to study with Paderewski. and has
studied since under other masters.
He made his first visit to America
eight years ago. His present tour is
the fifth in this country. He likes to
come because he says Americans diff
fer from Europeans in that they are
not satisfied with merely being pleased
and amused at a concert. They come
also to learn, to increase their 'knowl-
edge of music"
The mood is responsible for very i'm
portant things and may one day mean
the absolute domination of America in
the music world.

MADAM Butterfly"

Local music lovers have already
welcomed the announcement that Hen
ny w. Savage's English grand opera
company is to pay a return visit to
the Salt Lake theatre on Saturday
Feb. Is. 1t is interesting. to note that
Mr.. Savage's picturesque production
of Madam Butterfly was greeted
here last spring by the largest au-
diences perhaps ever seen in the Salt
Lake theatre. The advance inquiries
for seats already indicates that the re-
ception this year will be just as great
and fully as cordial as it was last
spring. Only two performances are to
be given, with an opportunity to hear
a different cast at each performance,
same as last year.
Since Madam Butterfly" closed its
last tour the opera has been intro
duced in Paris and Berlin, and in both
cities, which are renowned for their
aesthetic musical taste, the Puccini
opera scored a complete triumph. In
Berlin the German Opera-gOers en-
joyed the novelty of hearing two Eng
fish singing artists in the leading roles
of the opera. The part of Madam But
terfly was taken by Geraldine Farrar,
last season with the Metropolitan ope-
"a company in New York, and an
American by birth. and the part of
Lieutenant Pinkerton, the tenor role,
was sung by Francis Maclennan. who

as it is now two or more years since
he has been heard in public, and. as
usual, when a great man takes a much
needed rest, all sorts of rumors are IN
circulation. 1t is, therefore, matter
of congratulation to the entire musical
world to know that not only is Pade-
FeWski in good health but that his play
ing again shows him to be without a
rival.
His own Variations and Fugue,' op.
%, which he played during his tour.
is based on a strikingiy simple theme,
the twenty variations being most elaD-
crate The work is said TO be of high
distinction. mystic and capricious. full
of surprises, with many passages OF
great beauty. and it exhibits to the
full the resources of the instrument
and its player.
What Paderewski accomplished in
Great Britain is being repeated now in
America. where he is making his sew
enth tour except that in this country
he will give seventy-five concerts in

"Arisen From the Ashes.

The Utahna stock company at the
Lyric theatre will go back to melo-
drama the coming week and produce
Arisen From Ashes 1t is a good
one full of thrills, comedy and a pretty
love story. The plot is laid in New
York City and IS truly American
throughout. There is the scheming
villain, who seeks TO gain a fortune by
dishonest means: the poor but honest
hero. who triumphs lover the bad man:
the pretty heroine, the good -natured
Hebrew. who is out for a lark" and
numerous other characters that help
along the play till all is happily end
ed II. 3. Carpenter and Agnes Johns
will be seen in the leading roles: Fan
ME Hammond, e. r. Stanley and w.
r. Abrams viii have prominent parts.
"Arisen From the Ashes" is just the
kind of drama that will surely prove q
winner for the popular South Main
street theatre.

, Paderewski's Triumphs.

The Musical Courier printed last
spring under a London date line Of
May l the following interesting dis
patch:
"A great artistic triumph has again
been won by Paderewski in his recent
tour through the provinces, a tour that
began late in February and continued
for a month. ending the last of March.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-02-02

During this time he was heard at re-
citais in BournemOuth, Cardiff, Chel-
tenham. Bristol. Hanley, Oxford, Read
ing, Birmingham, Sheffield. Bradford
Newcastle, Aberdeen, Dundee, Glas-
gov, Edinburgh, Liverpool and Man
chester.
The reports of each of these eight
cen recitalS have been practically the
same-immense aUdieHces, great en-
thusiasm, and Paderewski himself play
ing better than ever Special interest
is, of course, felt in his temperance,

Rrran,s Popular Policies.

DR.. Bryan, heat physician of the
Democratic fanny, said that his NOM
nation for the presidency could only
be explained by substantial and
undisputed growth" Of the principles
for which he and his followers con-
tended for years. 1t is. indeed, re.
mariable, aye wonderful, how those
policies have grown in public favor
during the last ten years.
One noted instance is that Of the
free coinage of silver at the ratio OF
sixteen to one. now one of the most
popular issues of the day. Another
is the policy of packing the Supreme
Court of the United States. Still
another is that of denouncing the
federal courts for enforcing the laws
and protecting life and property, a
measure that has aroused enthusiasm
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1908-08-21

to such a pitch that the platforms 81
both the leading parties had some
thing mica to say about It. Another
Instance IS the policy Of opposing
I'eiyiI service reform which Is enthus-
iasticaily upheld by people all over
the country who think the old spells
system is the real thing. And yet
another extremely fayorite issue be-
fore the people Is that of govern
ment ownership OF railroads, which
Us deemed to assist the Democrats in
a sharper distinction Of the antiquat-
ed theory of state righs. The ini-
tlatlye and referendum, too, has set
about three-fourths of the people
Wild to, have It Incorporated in our
system OF government. The policy
OF class hatreds is also another Bryan
issue over which the great majority
Of fine people are fairly rolling In the
ecstacies of delight. A deep feeling
OF tender regard is also cherished by
the masses for the Bryan brand OF
sectlonalism.
In fact, Bryan's policies have so
grown and expanded in the affection,
sympathies and esteem of the people
that 1t is simply a wonder that he
was not made president of the United
States some time ago.

q
year insisting that Senator Scott must
be SEN back to he United safes sem
ate, and now they are trying TO fur
Their schemes to send a Democrat In
his place.
Senator Scott himself never gave
any eredence to their stories that
Isaac T. Mann would succeed him,
Ia the event Of the election OF Charles
W. swisher for governor. In fact,
Mr.. Mann took it upon himself to
personally assure Senator Scott that
there was no such intention and that
he was for HIS reelection. Senator
Scott, however. does not know that
he is to be reelected, II Swlsher
wins. but that does not change his
loyalty to the party. The Scherr
bunch was unable to do that, though
il resorted to fabrications, which. II
true, they supposed would appeal to
the Senator and for personal reasons
influence to become a traitor to his
party
But. they trlfied with the wrong
man and they resorted to tricks
which we're easily and quickly ex-
posed, They tried even to draw
Senator Scott into the fight and
fought their fight over his shoulders,
and, when they found they had lost,
they tur'ed on him and passed reso-
buttons OF condemnation and have
been declaring their opposition ever
since, Really, they cared nothing
for him to begin with but thought to
use him. Sadly mistaken were they.
and now they find him hand in hand
with the party he has always worked
for and with, true to the flag he
fought for and to those who honor
him and are honored by him.
The situation is one that does Sen
ator Scott and the Republican party
credit but one which reveals the
boilers in the light Of the most repre-
hensible inconsistency and dishonesty
of motive as their own past conclus-
lively shows.

Another Fnke CaIled.

The Wheeling Intelligencer got a
little too over-zealous in its misrep-
reservations of the political situation,
when it gave space to wild story
sent out from Wetzel county about
the motives and ambitions of Judges
Jacobs and Willis, and had to take
the fake stun all back. Judge Jacobs
was not long in calling 1t to account.
and Judge Willis's friends and the
Judge himself laugh at the ridicu-
lous assertions about him. That
loathesome sheet, infected with the
worst political rottenness known out
side of Tammany Hall and equally as
bad as it is 1t wanted to make 1t
appear that Judge Willis intends to
move out of one congressional dis
trict into another to run for congress.
Such is the purest rot, for, If Judge
Willis desires to run for congress. he
certainly has as good show in his
own district as he would have in one
he would move into. Judge Willis
is on the bench and is holding the
job down with dignity, giving good
service and is well liked by the law
yers and Iltigants of his circuit. In
deed. II We mistake not, the Intelll-
gencer not many moons ago was say
ing some good things about him. In
the face of all this 1t is not decent or
respectable on the part of the Intel
ligencer to make a personal attack
on him or to misrepresent and revile
him. He has done nothing to call
down upon him the calumny that
boss-ridden sheet undertakes to heap
upon him.
The people of this state, and es-
peclally, where the Intelligencer is
read. should determine at once not
to tolerate the abuse and SANDER of
every public man or private citizen,
who does not bow the knee subserv-
iently to Boss Ogden OF the Intelli-
gencer. professed Republican paper,
the Wheeling News, professed In
dependent. and the Wheeling Tele-
graph, Democratic paper. Ogden
is the dictator OF them all and like
buckwheat grain he has three faces
as these three papers of his show.

Scott and the Boilers.

For many weeks before the Repul-
Jean state convention. the Parkers-
burg Dispa ch-News and other Scherf
subsidized and purchased newspapers.
2ppeaied 20 the voters Of this state
TO come oaf Tor Schcrr. so as TO save
Senator Nathan D. Scott from being
deprived Of his seat in the federal
congress by Republican, and they
wen 80 fsr as to name Isaac T. Mann
Is the one who was slated. for the
place. These papers tried 10 make
It appear that the nomination OF
Charles W. Swisher for governor
meant that Isaac 7. Mann would sue
coed Senator Scott at the expiration
OF his present term. Swisher papers
denied this and showed how fufound-
ed such statements were. But the
Scherr papers did not heed but be-
came more insistent than ever that
such plan was TO be followed.
Developments since then sufficient
~ prove that the Scherr papers did
not know what thew were talking
about and they prove concluslvely
that the Swisher papers did know and
did take the correct grounds.
1t Is revealed also in this connec-
ton that they then uttered mere clap
trap and resorted to that line of mis-
representation merely to deceive some
one and merely to lead the voters
astray, They used 1t to ensnare
them into the Scherr trap.
The course the Scherr-bought pa
pers have pursued of late also reveals
the fact that they were not honest in
their expressions Of friendship to-
ward and their solicitations for Sen
ator Scott. No sincere man or paper
could spend months begging the peo-
pie to vote for. scherr to save Sen.
ator Scott his job and then suddenly
show up with bitter denunciations Of
Senator Scott. But, that is exactly
what the Scherr-bought newspapers
have done and are continuing TO do.

Collision Proved Conclusiyely.

John G. Evans, OF Lincoln county,
is a fair type of that sort OF Repubn-
canism that is backing the Scherr
ticket. Evans is a member Of the
Scherf state committee, and is a
Democratic nominee for prosecuting
attorney in his county. Evans was
elected twice to that office by the Re
publicans OF his county and is serv-
ing his second term. When he went
to the Charleston convention he join
ed the jumpers, and, returning home
he again went before his county con-
vention for denomination, but be
cause of his actions at Charleston he
failed to command sufficient strength
to nominate him and withdrew from
the race before the convention was
called to order and placed his sue
cessful rival in nomination.
The action o. placing the other
man in nomination ought to have
committed him to the results of the
convention. but not SO in his case. as
he took bold step in line with the
! Scherr policy OF collision with the
Democrats, and shortly afterward he
Is found as the nominee OF the Demo.
cratic convention held after the Re
publican. for prosecuting attorney
and arrayed against the man he plac-
ed in nomination for the Office. Many
Democratic objected to him, but the
designing leaders recognized in him
plant tool to use In their endeavor
TO defeat the Republican ticket in
that county. In years but recently
passed they abused, slandered and
! hurled the direst madelictions upon
him, but convention day Evans was
seen standing on their stage claiming
that he was accepting the nomination
given at their hands in the interest
u his party end asking them to help
him make 1t a clean party.
What could be more dishonorable
than the course he pursued after hav-
ing placed his rival in nomination?
VIA. real cause had Evans to turn
upon his party after It had kept him
in office eight years? But, how SINH
lar his course is to that Of Arnold G.
Sahcrr and some of his leading back
era, The Evans incident certainly
proves conclusively the sort of Re
nuhHcanism the Scherr crowd has,
Since he is one OF the members Of
the Scherr state committee and is
supposed to be one of those who is
guiding the Scherr campaign. 1t is
an open admission that the Scherr
ticket and, state committee exist
merely to turn the state over to the
Democrats, If possible, even il some
Of that bunch have to resort to run
ming on the Democratic ticket to
make good their part of the compact.
