Davenport, June 12.-The Iowa State

prohibition followed stirring address

and one of the most prominent figures
in the labor circles Of his home city.
There may, however. be further
trouble over the liquor question tomor-
row. as opponents of prohibition were
questioning the Rev. Mr.. Henke's righv
to a seat in the convention. As result
an effort may be made to unseat him
and force the reconsideration of the
prohibition question on the ground that
liquor question made all action with
regard to it null and void.
Opponents Of the liquor interests
were free today in declaring that the
refusal Of the state federation to enter
into the liquor controversy was VIC
tory for the dry" forces. They said it
showed that labor is not lined up with
the wet" forces as many have claimed
in the past.
The hattie over the prohibition ques-

CITY COUNCIL TIRES
OF POLITICAL POSTERS.

Des Moines, June 12.-Politicians
whose pictures and advertising cards
were nailed to posts, fences and bill
boards during the recent city and pri-
mary campaigns are required to re-
move them at once, according to an or
der issued by the city council yester-
day afternoon.
Mayor Hanna called the attention of
the council to the fact that the town Is
plastered with political advertising
which Is likely to remain up turnout
the year unless those who put the
signs up are compelled to remove them.
He introduced resolution which was
unanimously adopted, authorizing the
department of streets to take action
against politicians who do not comply
with the order.
The members of the, council, altho
some of them used the telephone ana
electric light poles as billboards during
the campaign, say they are tired OF
looking on the pictures of defeated
candidates in the city and primary
election. They declare that the pic
lures never did add to the beauty OF
the town. Mayor Hanna and Council
man Myerly allege that none OF their
advertising matter got on the posts.
The city claims the right to force
persons to remove Objectionable ad-
vertising matter by the terms of an or
dinance which was adopted several
years ago. This Is the first time that
any effort has been made to use the
law in this connection. Politicians,
successful and unsuccessful, were gen.
orally considered privileged characters

Music

Omaha music lovers were privileged to
hear Mr.. George Hamlin in song recital
yesterday afternoon at the Brandeis
theeter. And a privilege II really was,
for Mr.. Hamlin only proved again that
he well deserves his place among the
foremost tenor singers OF the day His
voice is full of a variety Of color, his
tones are clear and distinct, even in the
pianissimos and his voice shows a flex-
ibility aud evenness which makes 1t pos
sible for him to do with it whatsoever
he will, and he knows exactly what he
wishes to do His work at all times
shows a care and thoughtfulness of even
the smallest details, and as a result there
IS a polish and artistic finish to his in
terpretations which make a convincing
impression upon the listeners. He sings
with sincerity and dramatic ability
which presents each number in It's clear
est light. Mr.. Hamlin deserves a vote
OF thanks for the excellent program with
which he honored us. 1t not only pre-
scented variety and interest, but was from
the very best literature in the world of
song, yet it scarcely touched upon tho
usual recital program of the usual visit
ing artists. Even the numbers from the
classic and romantic writer's were from
among the less familiar of their works.
The program opened with the rccitative
md air, I'm Native Worth" from the
Creation" by, Haydn, followed by the
:ir, Love Sounds the Alarm, from
'Alcus and Galatea,' by Handel In
both Of these numbers Mr.. Hamlin re-
speeted tradition. and sang them with ex-
ceptlonal taste and understanding, These
were followed by two numbers each from
Schubert and Schumenn.~ These were
ponctheless beautiful although they were
little known. Especially attractive were
I'm Abendroth" by Schubert, full of
roverent devotion, and the Uveller Hi
dalgo," by Schumann
A group of three modern operate arias
succeeded. one from "Enfant Prologue. o.
by Debussy one from Fedora" by
by Puccini In these Mr. Ham!n showed
a fervor and dramatic intensity. which,
governed and controlled by his excellent
taste gave a vivid presentation. The
group In English, three from the cycle
'"ro JULIA" by Quilter; "Since You Went
Away" by Johnson, and "Nocturne," by
Hermann. were ably interpreted. The
Quilter numbers are beautiful bits The
last one made a most favorable impress
sion for the delightful manner in which
the subject matter was treated, end its
dainty accompaniment. "Since You Went
Away" proved such a favorlte that II
was repeated, and the "Nocturne" was
sung with fire and brllliancy which
completely captivated the audience. Two
