Wilson is to Blame.

Mr.. Wilson is to blame. For three
years he has led us in all directions
except the right one. And who Is
there now that is right sure what he
will yet do. Nothing In his past con
duct invites confidence in the present
crisis, lie has been contradictory in
almost every move he has made. No
longer ago than January Of last year
he was saying that 50 far as HIS in
huence went, while he was president,
nobody should interfere with the
McxlCans, least OF all the United
States, says the Wheeling Intclligcn-
Ger. But think Of these words with
what actually happened before He
had by summary and high-handcd in
reference in Mexican affairs. over
thrown the substantial Ilucrta gov
eminent and was cndeayoring by
ayowed encouragement and unlimited
supplies Of arms and ammunition to
set up in It's place a rebel force.
II Isl mistake to speak Of patience
as having guided the presIdcnt in hia
dealings with Mexico Gross impa-
thence has marked lis course, and it
has been course which has seemed
to the Mcxicans, however mistakenly
to be at once hostile and cowardly.
He has naggcd them into hatred with
ont at any time commanding their re-
spcCt.

REMARKS AND SONG
IS CAUSE OF PROTEST
Claim Agreement TO Sing
0uly Sacred Songs Was
Violated

Those attending the Sunday evening
entertainment of the Chautauqua last
evening were given the benefit of
several numbers not on the program.
Ellison White, having agreed that
only sacred music should be allowed on
the program, on account of the protest
of the Ministerial union against secu-
lar music, had arranged with Hartridge
Whipp of Portland to sing.
Mr.. Whip is leader of the Grace
church choir and prominent in musical
circles of Portland. After singing sew
eral sacred numbers all of which were
eneored, Mr.. Whipp announced that he
sang sacred music for living, not
especially because he liked it and that
as an encore he would sing something
different. What he did sing for the
encore was long way from the agreed
secular music, so much so that Rev.
James Elvin, one of the directors of
the Chautauqua, made a vigorous pro-
test, on the grounds that he had told
the Ministerial Union only sacred
music would be on the program.
The Mawson pictures of adventures
in the Arctic regions was one of the
best entertainments of the entire
course.
1t is probable that in the handling Of
the Chautauqua for the coming year,
several prominent business men will be
invited to assist. The question as to
whether Salem wants Chautauqua
next year will be taken up this evening
and again tomorrow night.

Mr.. Geo. T. Wilson, director of the
Moose Big Comic Opera that will be
given in the Grand Theatre on the
evenings of Monday and Tuesday, July
3lst and August LIST.
Mr.. Wilson who has had many years
experience in conducting operas has
aroused enthusiasm among the forty
odd members of the cast during the
past week by the manner in which he
handled the many comic situations, in,
troduees original pieces of stage bust
ness, and conducts the various chorus
evolutions and dances.
Between the lines of all the Gilbert
and Sullivan Operas there are many
little dramatic effects introduced that
are only known to those who have
sung or acted in them many times.
This is one reason why that many times
home talent productions do not meet
the expectations of the theatre going
public. Those who take the several
parts have the voices and the acting
ability, but do not know what to do
in the various situations. 1t is not
what is said or sung, but the way it is
said or sung that makes it interesting
TO those accustomed to seeing excel
lence of performance. 1t is the ability
to do things in different way that
raises the actor to stardom. The same
thing is true of the producer of dramas,
operas or photo-plays.
Those who go to see "The Mikado" J"
will see nothing amateusish, despite
the fact that it is to be sung and acted
by home talent
In every city of the size of Salem
there is talent that is superior to the
so-called professionals. All it needs is
the right kind of direction to produce
any theatrical performance in profes-
sional manner. Mr.. Wilson uses the
same care in staging his shows as in
their direction. He carries over ST.
500 worth worth of scenery and cos
tunes for ''The Mikado" alone. An
orchestra of ten pieces will play the
accompaniment to the entire show. 1t
is safe to say that no local production
ever given in Salem will excel the
opera to be given on the dates men
toned.
The prices will be Sl.00. 75c and
50e, and exchange tickets win soon be
in the hands of the lodge members for
advance sale.

FOURTH VICTIM OF EXPLOSION

Keswick, Cal, July 1.-THE death of
R. d. Murphy, of Los Angeles, this
morning brought the death toll of Sun
days oxygen tank explosion here to
four. The machine shop damages are
estimated at $4,000. AS the man oper-
ating the welding apparatus was exper-
fenced and the Metal Weld company
wired to head off the use of the tank,
it is believed that the coroner's jury
will blame the San Francisco concern
for the fatality.
