BY ST. PAUL SYMPHONY Or

Fargo Philharmonic club, accompanied
by the ST. Paul Symphony orchestra,
E A. Boehmer, acting director Of the
conservatory, conducting.
The armory was crowded with an
audience which several times demon
strated it's approval with liberal APP
plause, especially at the close of the
different majestic climaxes so familiar
in Tannhauser. The great overture
was splendidly rendered, and Mr..
Boehmer and the orchestra were called
upon twice to acknowledge the demon
STATIONS of the audience.
Despite big handicap of having to
be divided half at one side of the stage
and half on the other, and some under
the side balconies, the choristers &C
Quilted themselves splendidly, but the
bassos exhibited a little nervousness,
but the dple support OF MI CHEs The
voice teacher at the conservatory, as
sisted them in maintaining the i'm
portant attacks. All of the soloists
gave perfect satisfaction, Mr.. Bunce,
a local man, acquitting himself splen-
didly. Mrs. Wolff. as Venus. was

to be hurried and Mr. Boehmer was
called upon to do some cutting, as the
train was waiting to take the orchestra
and soloists to Winnipeg.

The Wrong WAY.

The Kansas City Star is guilty
of a peculiar mistake. 1t discusses
railroad rates and values and says
that if Kansas had a public utili-
ties bill it would be enabled tn
ascertain physical valuation and
other important items concerning
the railroads.
And yet the Star knows, or
ought to know, that the utility
bill favored by Gov. Stubs two
years ago expressly and absolutely
excepted the railroads from its
operation.
The reason for this exception was
that the present railroad law pro-
vides for physical valuation and
all the other things desired by the
advocates of the utility bill.
It would be fair to Kaneas to
say that her present railroad law
is as good as any state in the
union and not be referring to the
Law as if it were weak and INSULT
The Star with its great circula-
ton can keep on giving til s
wrong impression, when it should
not do so, until the people think
the utility bill concerned the rail
roads. 1t did not. Not a line in
the bill referred to railroads or
gave the state additional power
over railroads and railroad rates.
Perhaps the editorial writer on
the Star should be better posted
about Kansas.
