ABOUT THAT HARMONY PLAN.
TrOutman Says ingalls, Is Mistaken
About Some Things.

Topeka, April 10.-J. A. Trout
man of Topeka, chairman of the
committee in charge of the harmony
meeting to be held in Topeka, June
8. is for harmony of his own kind
and he would like to take a few
shots at those who do not believe
in harmony if he dared. Yesterday
Sheffield ingalls,, lieutenant gover-
nor, refused to attend the harmony
meeting because he could not see
where the meeting would do any
good. Senator Troutman did not
like the remarks of the lieutenant
governor and in letter to him to-
day Senator Troutman said:
"There are lot of things in your
letter that / am aching to answer;
if l were not a herald of harmony,
I'd cut loose.
"You say the only point of simil-
arity between the Republican and
Progressive parties is that they both
believe in the theory of protective
tariff Pardon me when l say that
you are radically wrong in this
statement, especially in its applica-
ton to state affairs. There is
scarcely any room for discussion be-
tween the two parties in this state
as to progressive measures. There
is perhaps some difference as to the
Importance and scope of the initia-
tive and referendum and the recall.
The last legislature, however. DEM
onstrated very clearly that no party
is a unit on these propositions"

of concerts at Cincinnati, Ohio. Among
others there appears an anticle on
The Advantage of a City Orchestral
by Mr. Lee B. Nusbaum of this city.
The article is interesting as it is a
clear and concise statement of facts
and in short outlines a condition that
has made Richmond famous along
musical lines as compared with other
cities of it's size in this country. The
article as written by Mr.. Nushaum fol-
lows:
BY "City Orchestra" we take it is
meant an orchestra which is a product
of the city in which it exists and is an
outgrowth of the musical advantages
offered by the community and its pur-
pose is musical culture rather than
financial gain for its members.
The true test Of a city's achieve
ments in any line is what it can do
through the public spirit of its citi-
zens and not by the talent and endeav
or it can purchase outside its borders
