Just at the) Ume that Richmond, In'dlana, has hold Its symphony concert It Is Interesting to rend In the Kansas City Star of February 17. the following laeeouat of the symphony orchestra there: "It Is now time to bury with all dis honors the historical phrase, "Art is on the bum In Kansas City." "Practically every other city that i maintains a symphony orchestra had financial troubles in its first year. The ' customary practice Is to obtain guaran tors, who, in every Instance on record, hare been required to make up a deficit at the end of the season. There will be no calls for that purpose, all expenses of the concert season already being provided for. "The expenses have not been covered by the seat sale, however. Of the twelve hundred subscribers to the series of conoerts about one hundred contributed to the foundation fund sums ranging from $5 to 11.000. Replies received from these latter subscribers regarding their support for next season encouraged the retiring committee to recommend an increase of the sustaining fund so that the orchestra may be enlarged and more conoerts given." According to the census, the population of Kansas City Is 248,381. Richmond has 22,243 citlsens. It may seem an exaggeration and a boasting statement to make but it is ' safe to assert that the Richmond organisation Is on a aolider basis, represents more truly the musical culture of the town and Is the equal technically of the Kansas City enterprise. This happens to be nothing but the opinion of critics of national reputation. it might be a good thing for the citlsens of Richmond to reflect on how this oame to be. Perhaps Col. Harry New and Boss Keeling wonder now whether Col. Ed Leo might not have been safer If they had allowed him to become state chairman than If they had forced him to shoW why It Is that Taft can not be elected. Taft might even have been nominated. The New York Sun prints on its editorial page a letter on the subject of Lew Shank's ambitions for the governorship. The secret of Mayor Shank's tremendous popularity is that the people of Indiana In addition to other virtues Itare a kener sense of humour than those of any other State. The prevalence of this quality Is not commonly understood outside Its wide-spread existence being obscured by the undue prominence of a few such humorists as George Ade, John MeCutcheon and William Dudley Foulke; but these are far from being our greatest humorists. We hope these three gentlemen will ue Mr. Shank's press bureau for libeL And now perhaps the Indianapolis News will reprint on Its editorial page the following item from the World Almanao for 1911: "Under orders from Mr. Roosevelt the Attorney General Instituted proceedings In the courts of the District of Columbia against both the World and the Indianapolis News. The government was completely defeated in the Indianapolis News case. United States District Attorney resigned his position rather than assist in the attempt to remove the defendanta from their homes to the District of Columbia for trial." Now lant that funny?

Roosevelt And The 1907 Panic When the Democratic members of congress a few weeks ago refused to allow the Investigation of the so-called Money Trust to go farther, they impaired their own credit. When a few days ago the storm of national criticism forced them to take action and appoint a committee, Mr. Korbly of Indiana, took the chairmanship with the remark that he would conduct a "sane investigation." This Is the year 1912. In the year 1907 the news came to the people of thia country that there was a Money Trust and that there was a power in the United States stronger than the Federal Government. And this is four years after! The news was made only too apparent when the panic broke. It was made the common knowledge of every American citixen when the meeting was held In the library of J. P. Morgan on the eventful night preceding the announcement of the morning papers that Morgan had come to the "rescue" of the country.
In the four years that have elapsed what has been done to render this country any safer from the gentlemen who control the credit of the United States; the disposal of all the savings of the country; the life blood of all the Industries? In view of later events the enemies of Theodore Roosevelt have held that he should have wrecked the country rather than allow the United States Steel Corporation to acquire control of the Tennessee Coal and Iron company, whose shares were in the possession of the ill-fated trust company about to fall if the panic went farther. Perhaps the situation waa not ao acute as Mr. Roosevelt was led to believe it was. Who knows? Perhaps Mr. Morgan would have had to come to the "rescue" of the country anyhow. Who knows? But if the proposition had to be decided between breakfast time and the time the banks of the country open in the morning what would any American citixen be likely to do? That morning Theodore Roosevelt had in hia hands the property of all the men who had invested in any industrial security; he held the fortune of every man who had put a cent into the banks of the land ; he held the food of those who were to receive wsges from their employerson the other hand he had the alternative of allowing one gigantic corporation the United States Steel Corporation to swallow up its larger rival, the Tennessee Coal and Iron company.
Would it have been to Theodore Roosevelt's credit as the chief executive of the United States of America to have done otherwise. By that act be could not have curbed for one brief second the operations of the holders of the sources of credit in the United States. If an executive order could have taken Morgan from control of credit in America it would have been done then or before. Nor has it been done since nor has congress done anything to change the situation to this day.
The Progressives in congress have urged measures which would do away with many of the abuses of those who hold the control of credit but these have been defeated. The fact remains, as always, that he who controls the credit of the nation is stronger than the nation. Kings with Imperial ambition have had to bow to the will of the Rothchilds' and all the great money lenders from the beginning of time. The loosely constructed government of this republic is no exception on the contrary it has been notoriously controlled by this same Money Power. It is the struggle in which the American people are now engaged to try to solve this situation. To blame Theodore Roosevelt for not taking the risk of wrecking the business of the country and the fortunes of small and helpless investors in banks, or of risking the employment of countless thousands to whom he owed allegiance is to blame a man for erring on the right side.
For twenty years the Sherman anti-trust law has stood on the statute books. Within the last year the Supreme Court decided that all the law amounted to was a change in book-keeping for the Standard Oil company and the Tobacco Trust. The question of monopoly has been no more nearly solved than the problem of Democracy.
These two issuesare before the country today no cut and dried plan can solve these problems. They must be solved in the old way of mankind, "trial, error and sense." In the next four years these things must come increasingly to the fore. The man who goes in headlong without keeping his eyes on the fortunes of the ninety millions of people in this country will not solve it of himself and he may do irreparable injury. Grant if you will, that Theodore Roosevelt was fooled by Gary on the morning in which he had to decide before breakfast whether the panic was to go any farther grant that if you will Theodore Roosevelt's thought was of the people of the United States and not of any theory of economics. And for this shall he be condemned?

By EDWIN A. NY HIS LOSS AND GAIN. She jilted him because bis father was a blacksmith. Scarcely believable comes the story from New York thnt a society girl of that city, engaged to a One young business man. broke the engagement when she learned that the young man's father, living in the west, is a blacksmith. One wondersDoes this pretentious young woman know that the head of the house of Vanderbilt was o ferryman or tbat the first of the Astors once peddled mousetraps? Let's see. Taking the story as It comes, figure what the young man lost and what be gained by the breaking of the engagement He lost a heartless girt. He lost a girl who seemed to him the fairest among ten thousand and alto getber lovely and wasn't. He lost a girl who cared so little for him that she cared a great deal too much whom his father might be. And, what hurt mostHe lost a beautiful belief that sweet appearing, gracious acting girls are not always the simple, loving creature? they may seem to be. What did he gain? He gained his freedom from a girl who was not what be thought she was. a girl unworthy to be his wife. He gained the privilege to go and find a sweetheart and wife who will care so much for him that she will not care a rap wbo bis father may be. And be gained the somewhat bitter knowledge that In this country, where, theoretically, we are all on an equality, there are snobbish young women who have not sense enough to love a young man for what he is and may become. NowHow does the ledger stand? Charge on the debit side a few twinges of the heart, a few fond re grets, perhaps a line in the forehead of the young man tbat was not there be fore and that time may never erase. That's all on the debit side. How. then, does the balance sheet show? Loss Nothing except experience. Gain Everything, experience inclnd ed. Peculiar After Effects of Grip This Year.
