the citizen who has thought of the best

there can only be one answer.

might want to monopolize what belongs
to the people. I certainly think it will

with Hamlet left out.
Other municipalities and cities are
now engaging In movements that will
lead to revivication of their musicians
and their bands. In this movement
Walla Walla is not behind Perhaps
why things have been stirred up at
this time in Walla Walla is because
of the fact that the city is soon to
need park music and need it very bad
ly. Walla Walla now has a park that
represents an investment of many
thousands of dollars. The park is for
the people. But the people demand at
fractions. And when those in authori-
ty look about for attractions there is
only one thing they can't think of and
that is good band A band will fill
the bill. A band they must have.
Walla Walla now has a good band.
But how to maintain the organization
in an efficient state is the thing that
is now bothering the commercial
club, the park club and the many
other public spirited citizens who are
interested in band music in Walla Wal
la. All these know that in order to
have band give programs during the
summer months at the city park it
must be maintained as an organization
and be in a position to rehearse reg
ularly during the winter months. In
fact they are finally beginning to re-
alize that band to remain a band
must be in receipt of a permanent and
fixed income each and every month
during the year. Under these circum-
stances the one big question that will
have to be settled and settled very
quickly is how a permanent band fund
can be gotten together in the city of
Walla Walla. In connection with Wal;
Ia Walla and her band the situation
has resolved itself into this. The
members of the local band are willing
to give their. services free; individ-
lfually they ask for. nothing from the
municipality but they do demand
enough money from some source or
other to defray the expenses of the or
ganization such as leaders salary,
hall rent, music, light, fuel, etc. All
who know anything about music and
even business men who are not expert
| musicians will be quick to see that this

feriority In this country, if all the
women wanted to vote. they would have
voted long ago. The laws of the Unit
ed States and of the several states have
conceded women equal rights in bust
ness, in respect to property holding
education. and personal liberty.
In most cases where disputes over
the conflicting interests of husband
and wife, the wife is favored by courts
and juries The daughter is legally no
more subject to parental control than
the son. The woman is given absolute
freedom of choice in marriage.
The agitation for woman suffrage
is waged by many Of the most intellf-
gent women of the country, by women
of high character and lofty aims. But
they do not constitute by any means a
majority of their sex. The great body
have shown themselves Indifferent, and
some women of considerable reputa-

If the suffragettes would succeed

paign more directly into the ranks of
their own sex. Man, as mere man, is
not the tyrant that some of the suffra-
gette orators represent him to be. He
is prone to be indulgent to his women
folks.
The average person Of the masculine
gender in this American union will
not oppose the extension of the voting
privilege to women if he is convinced
that a large majority of the women of
his kinship and acquaintance really
desire it, Perhaps he thinks it would
not do them any good and that lit
would make no great change in politics
except to double the vote, but he
wouldn't stand out long against the

local musicians. If Waila Walla can
secure park music on such terms as
these she surely will be getting OF very

COMMUNICATED
WAlLA WAlLA'S BAND.

The world moves. The most uneX-
pected changes take place. One OF the
latest things that has now become
recognized fact is that there is a
scarcity of bands-at least organlza-
tions entitled to be called such, in the
cities of the northwest. Portland has
no band: Spokane is in the same fix.
Pendleton has been down and out for
some years Boise is worse off than
nothing. When it is said that these
places have no bands what is intended
is that they have no such bands as
they had half a dozen years ago and
which stood out as the official musical
organization of their respective cities.
The bands that do hold forth in these
places today are of the nonscript var
iety or what; is known as 'privates."
The majority of them are very small.
This state of affairs has created
CONSERVATION among municipal Off
Gals and other prominent citizens who
realize that no city amounts to much
that has not good band A city
without a band is not in a healthy
state. This is true because no people
can live on bread alone Writers, think
ers and philosophers from the ages
down have told us is that there is a
time to work and they have also been
emphatic in their statements that
there is a time for people to hear good
music. With, the masses of the people
there is nothing that will. take the
place of good band music. Music other
than this kind they are denied ninety
nine times out of the hundred on ac
count of its cost and it is a mighty
mean municipality citizen or citizens
who would deny poor people Of their
one real enjoyment when they have an
opportunity to visit parks and other
public places at many times through
out the year. Then, the city is in
mighty bad fix when it has no music
for it's state and other gala occasions
A uniform parade or amy other kind
of parade, or a celebration without a
band is similar to the play Hamlet"
