As to whet thcr W. J. Bryan is out of
politics we do not know; but we don't
mind saying this. William ]. Bryan
has had more influence for good on the
United States of America during the
past eighteen years than any other one
man in the country. He has set the
pace for the country in advanced
thought for moral, financial and indus
trial development. He has done more
for prohibition than any other one
man and he has done more for the up
lift of honest labor in every line of in
duStry. He is more largely responsible
than my other one man for monetary
reform and for the land loan bank sys-
tenn There is absolutely no question
of the fact that hut for him Woodrow
Wilson would never have been presi-
dent: but there is very considerable
question as to whether Woodrow Will
son is as good 4 man as is MIR. Bryan
AS to whether Mr.. Bryan can now be
elected we do not know. We are in
Clincd TO think now that whoever the
Democrats may nominate. the Repub-
licanS are TO elect the president in
1920: but however that may be there
is not Il better man in America for the
than W. J. Bryan.

MORE TSCHAIKOWSKY
Sacha Jacobinoff Plays Violin Concerto
= With Philadelphia Orchestra
in Academy

The third violinist to exploit the Tschai-
EowSty u major concerto here this season
Is Sacha JaCobnom, soloist on the Philadel-
pha Orchestra program given yesterday aft
ernoon in the academy OF Music. The young
vrtuoso's predecessors were the superb Hei-
fetz and the faCile and fiery Mischa Elman.
All three readings OF this work were OF
very disparate qualities, Heifets has the
tone glorious and today unparalleled, FL
man the vlgor. JacobinoT is not yet OF
their stature. His technique Is brilliantly
resourceful, but sheer beauty sometimes fees
his bowing. He has a tendency to avoid the
e%igent key and his coruscating pyrotechncs
lack charm. In a word. his art seems still
immature. His tones in the norid passages
or the first movement though always ex-
ceedingly clean were pinchcd and wiry. He
was more at homo in the simpler canzonetta
and in portions of the final allegro
Unquestionably this Philadelphia born vio-
linist possesses talent. which, properly
guided. should attain luster. Just now his
playing Is characterized by disconccrting un.
"'cnncss, truly lovely effects being pro-
duced at one moment and at another sounds
of positively raspnG harshncss. He was
generously applauded.
Mr.. StoHowsld offered q composite program
introduced with the dcathless g minor svm-
phony of Mozart The work was played with
80 rigid a regard for cassicism that the
Orchestra was reduced to AN eighteenth-cen-
tury standard. With a personnel Of about
forty musicians the symphony. with its con
spCuOuSly small string choir, took on some
thing of the aspect of chamber music
The predatory national anthem was also
played by these diminished ranks. With
the absence of tympani, tubas and other CON
comitants of modern Instrumentation. the
music was possibly restored to the condition
familiar to Francis Scott Key when he Sc,
his star SpangIed Banner" lyrics TO AN
acreon in Heaven" TO modern cars the score
usually so admirably arranged in Mr. Sto
kowSEts new version, seemed rOttbed of its
martial appeal
Brahms's ingenious and effective variations
on theme Of IIadyn. Chorale ST. Antoni
and Svendsen's unimportant and conventional
'arhaNal Paris' were the two other pure
ly instrumental selections II was an nm
miStal:able tribute to the cloqueuce OF

warmcst applause of the afternoon.
