Where the People
 May Have Hearing
The Skovgaard & Co.

Editor Republican,:
 l read your criticism of the Skov- gaard concert in Tuesdays Depub lican with much varied emotion. It seems strange to me that Phoenix cannot produce a musical critic, or is it that those who are competent have their hands tied and have in StructiOns to smear for the good of the papers policy?
 There are perhaps 300 real music lovers in Phoenix. The rest of the large audience at the Elks on MOn- day night were perhaps searchers for entertainment, wanting something di- verting from the regular offerings of the city. These people very likely would not attend a musical show if they could get diversion in the dramatic. circus or carnival line So when they hand out two perfectly good dollars to hear an unheard of musical troupe and have it indorsed the day following the concert by the leading press of the state, it seems that it is high time to draw atten- tion to these people. who do not
 
 sic, and tell them that this was not an example of a first class musical attraction, and thus give them the inclination to take a chance at the next one. As it is now the unmus- ical who attended the SkoVgaard con cert believe this was high class ren- dition, and most likely decide they do not like high brow music; give us some rag-time"
 l claim, and can get the backing of most of the musicians of the city, that the Skovgaard concert was not any way near what it was advertised to be. The entire program could be given in a better and more artistic manner by local artists, with very little practice. Two dollars was al together too much for it. Fifty cents

SHRINE CEREMONIAL
 CHANGED ID MARCH
monies Until High Official of Order can Arrive

Illustrious Potentate, Geo. A. Mintz of Fl Zaribah Temple of the Mystic Shrine has just sent information to the Nobles in Arizona of change in the date of the next annual cere- monial session
 For many years February 22nd has Jeen the historical date in Phoenix tor the gathering of nobles from throughout the state for the annual ceremony. The date has been changed this year to March Is, 1916. This is done for the reason that the imperial Divan, accompanied by about l25 Eastern Nobles. will arrive in Phoenix on the 18th of March on their way to California, and the Imperial Potentate has requested d ceremonial while in this Oasis.
 Every effort is being made by the members of Fl Zaribah Temple to make this coming ceremonial one of he most unique and interesting ever witnessed by even the Imperial Divan.
 There will be a meeting tonight at he Masonic Hall for the purpose of organizing the new patrol appointed by the Potentate after the recent election.

The Tour of the President

The desperatencss of the presidential program with respect to preparedness is indicated m MT. Wilson's purpose to go into the middle west the lat ter part of this week to appeal directly to the peo- pie in behalf of the program doubtless in the hope that their senators and representatives may be made to her from them. It indicates that the president is hopeless of the effect of direct appeal to gress Mir. Roosevelt used to follow this with good results but Mr. Roosevelt always possessed the confidence of the people; it only necessary for him to make known his views to them. Mir Wilson first this confidence in a the country where there is the greatest op- position to preparedness.
 The most discouragng feature of the situation is the lack of sympathetic leadership in the presi- dents party in congress; there appears be teligent leadership in its behalf, The floor leader of the house is bitterly opposed the program and is under the domination of MT Bryan. The ate leader is apathetc. In the body of the majority there is a division the program itself among the advocates of it there is sharp division as to the means of carrying it into effect
 Thus it is that the presidents task is easy. His principal hope to lie in breaking down party lines and in the consideration of pre- paredness and revenue broad patriotic lines, in which the republicans may come to his cue for it should not be thought that the present sessicn of congress should come to an end without the accomplishment of something definite.
 It is not, however, only in these questions that the lre sdent faces obstacles. In the senate pecially, opinion confined party lines, is d- Vidcd as the entire foreign policy. of the ad- minstration. The senators who have spoken cent debate doubt restrained themselves a certain extent but beneath it all there must be a strong feeling that the president should take the senate into his confidence.
 the foreign policy and such outbreaks will from time to time despite the efforts of Chairman Stone of the foreign relations committee to suppress them. The session of congress- therefore, is likely disclose the unwisdom of trusting the democratic party with the delicate affairs of the country
 In the last session of congress MT Wilson Ceeded in putting through program that dis tasteful in many of it's a majority of in line for the administration largely through the efforts of Mir Bryan Now, Mr Bryan is bitterly opposed preparedness and it's foes under his leadership. and his influence with the majority in idcnt. It yet remains to be whether his infu- is greater with the people. The success of his program rest the attitude of the publicans in congress-whether they shall come to by encouraging democratic division.

WHERE BABIES HAVE NO CHANCE

The government has been working through it's Chdrens bureau. to try and find what effect living conditions have upon the death rate among children. An extensive investigation made in Johnstown Pa, typical steel mill and coal mining town. In the section where large communities of workmen i've in crowded and insanitary tenements the death rate among children was 271 per one thOusa nd. In another part of Johnstown, where different class of workmen live in cottages under sanitary conditions, the death rate of children only fifty per thousand. Montclair N. J., a residential suburb where well to do people live amid surroundings favorable to health, the death rate among children only thirty mine per thousand.
 The announcement of these investigations ought to awaken Kansas City. Two years the polite q the city hall defeated the housing code dnance which intended to protect the living conditions of the women and children of the tene ment districts.-Karsas City Star.
