in the department of public school
music this year. 1t began some two
months ago when Jesse e. Baker
gave a Verdi program In the High
school assembly room for the pupils
of the schools from the sixth grade
On up through the High school.
The program was chosen with great.
est good Judgment and gave unbound-
less pleasure to the student listeners
and the teachers who were present.
Finding that the general public were
interested in these recitals of the

worlds greatest artists, Mr.. Hayden
asked Mr.. Baker If he would give a
series of these recitals in the High
school assembly room to which the
public might be invited.
The first OF these concerts was
given Thursday night and in spite
of the intense cold some sixty were
present to hear the program which
was printed in The Gate City Wednes-
day.
Students of the public schools and
the masses of Keokuk citizens have
little opportunity to heas great over
lures and great standard solos. They
occasionally come to keokuk but
unfortunately the mass of the people
cannot avail themselves of these
public exhibitions
With Mr.. Bakers magnificent in
strument and collection of records
thus available no one in Keokuk need
be deprived of the culture and slim
ulation which results from hearing
these splendid performances of
great musical compositions If the
public shows sufficient interest, this
series of recitals will be carried on
up to the end Of the entertainment
season.
The next recital will be probably
! given to the public Thursday evening,
February LIST. The program is some
what of lighter character than the
one just given to the High school and
grammer school Friday afternoon
! While the music is of little lighter
character it is all standard music and
rendered by famous artists and bands
/ In addition to the program given
by Mr.. Baker, Mr.. c. H. Wolfe has
given several programs with one OF
his Victor machines, two having
been given In the Carey school and
three In the Terrence. 1t is hoped thai
! during the year these high class pro
grams will be taken into every build
ing In the city.
The pupils of the public school:
are also active in other directions
as will be seen from the following
announcement printed on the pro
grams which were distributed Thurs
day and Friday.

The Unrest

There is a certain growing unrest In
this country that is reaching the climax.
Before our next issue this unrest may
have so developed 10 such an extent that
we can come to dim conclusion oil what
might be.
Col. Roosevelt and President TAFT were
at one time fast friends, but now we see
them different. By the ''third-terher' ls
rallying to his support some OF the most
Influential men of this country The
..lid-holder" is sly enough to manager to
keep the steam roller in his control
1t has been said and cartooned that the
scramble is more like the acts of two
boys, than of two real men.
The question Is asked, why didn't
they get together" We cannot answer
this. but we do think the result will be
the spelling and running politically OF two
of our 'once-honored' statesmen, and be-
sides this the honor and dignity of the
Presidency has lost much of its prestige
in the eyes of the free thinking multi
tudes The actions of these two factions
plainly point out the unrest in the nation
al republican party.
The unrest cannot be tamed-it cannot
be quenched until all things are made
new-olu things must pass away, must
be side-tracked for the newer, better,
progressive things.
The unrest is not with the Republican
party alone, but in the Democratic party
as we'll. In the Democratic party it has
not centered itself so prominently, but
the latent unrest is there, and when the
opportune time comes it will be seen, felt
and heard.
One reason of this unrest is that the
people are beginning to see how entrench-
ed they have been in party prejudices-
they feel and see the hand of machine
rule"-they realize that the danger line
is not far distant-they realize that halt
must be made, and that other principles,
modern and progressive in effect, must
be migrated into their party.
Parties must have progress as well as
individuals or else they die. Some indi-
viduals are hard to reform and die in
their sins. Parties are no more than a
collection OF individuals agreeing on one
or more things.
