Nonpareil editorial rooms , as to account
easily for the tenderness with which that

ticket , and the prominent pluco it given

The alleged friend of the wumingmeu
who Is so detirnus of keeping the nwyor'd

norant to read the papers , but c .nnot
trust them to hold a regular convention

MERITORIOUS MUSIC.
,
Miss Fnrmy Kellogg Given n Honrty
Welcome na Introduced In Con
cert by the Cocillu Club.
'
The cincort given under the auspices
of tlio Cecil in club caused n hrgo
j nudicnco , composed of tlio very beat
' classes of society , to gather in Doha-
noy's 1ml 1. The Cecilia club is nn
ntnateur organization which has justly
won for itself much local popularity ,
and it was originally intended to make
this ontortninmont a aomi-public musii
cnlo , but tlio advent of Miss Fanny
Kellogg on n visit to this , her old
homo ] , , nnd the general dcsiro of her
many fnonds and admirers to hoar
her sing , caused n change in the plan ,
Tlio club prevailed on her to take a
placij nn the prourninmo , nnd in order
to accommodate tliu public , so eager *
to hear her , n larger hull waa selected
ami the musicale thus developed into .
n full concert. I I
It was indeed n musical treat. Miss
Kollogu acquitted herself grandly ,
mid fully met the high expectations of
her friends , who have watched with
much interest her rapid rise toward
fume. She was most cordially received - j
coivod , and her numbers c.illod forth
enthusiastic ! applause and encores. j !
Ho audience seemed to feel that her
every ' success was also a fresh laurel I
for this city , in which * her childhood
iW
win passed , and as she showed forth '
her powora of song , by which tho.io
successes had bean won , the delimited I
hearers could not check their enthusi-
hias
astio oxpioiaions of admiration.
Tlio rest of the programme proved |
u worthy support to such an artiste ,
appearing in what mifjht lightly bo
termed ! a homo cntertainmpnt. Mr. '
1'easo gave an excellent violin solo ,
fem wliicR ho waa rewarded by an'car -
noot encore. Mr. Tulleya gave a
very pleasing tluto solo , showing
much skill in handling that inatrun
inoiit. Miss Julia Ollicor deserves' '
much credit for her part taken in a
duet with Mr. Por.se , and later in the '
programme ! by her excellent rendition
of Raffs Valso do Juliette. Miaa i
Morklo cave "Tho Day is Done" in u I
manner which called forth hearty apn
pluuso.
Piwi Miss Kato Pusoy joined in a duet
with Miss Kollogf , her voice blending
very closely and sweetly with that of
the popular artist. Miss Blanche
Oliver gave a pleasing solo , which was
evidently appreciated by the audionco.
The closing number given by MUs
Kellogg waa "Proverbs in Song , "
which gave a happy finish to a delight
ful evening of song.
Taxing the Worklngmon.
Great stress has boon laid upon the
unequal burdens of taxation by some
of these who think that on this wave
they can ride into oflico. There ia no
doubt that the burden is unequally d ° -
vided , and that many n humble cir
cumstances pay moro n proportion
than many who own much property.
A man who has only a ttlo homo
cannot escape the assessor , and can
not hide away any of his property ,
while ono'who ' has largo and varied
property nterosts can cover up
some , and avoid the full as
sessment of other property. This is
so in all cities , and moro or loss so in
this. Some of those of meagre moans
have felt the pressure of injustice.
They feel that jiome men of much
more wealth nro not taxed as much as
they should bo , while they are taxed '
more. It is bad enough to have such '
a grievance' , but it is worse yet to
have some cunning politician , under
the mask of sympathy , try to dupe
these same burdened souls , for the
sake of securing personal power.
The present mayor has heard those
complaints , and seeing a chance to
make n point , cries out , "I will bo
your Moses. 1 will slay the Egyptian
task masters. Vote for mo. Ho
proceeds to the worthy task of show
ing that the workingmon's griovn co
is a real ono , but evidently does it for
an unworthy purpose. Ho hasknown
tliuse grievances nil the months of his
administration , b"t has not done a
thing towards righting them. Ho
has kept us mum aa a clam until tliu
election drew near. Then ho cries
out , " 1 would rather bo mayor of
Council liluHs than king of Franco.
Veto for your little Vuuglmn , and ho
will BOO that taxes are equalized.1
Ono of the oldest and best ways
of judging the future is by the past.
Yaugh.in has not oven by voice , much
less by action , attempted to right
these wrongs in the past , and his
sympathy finds words only oii'tho approach
preach of an election in which ho is
concerned , and while ho makes
promises now. the election will soon
bo past , and the promises in any
event will pass away with that. Tno
simple fact is ho has had just as good
a chatico in the past as in the futuro.
Ho has done nothing to help the matter -
tor during Ids term of oflico , and can
do nothing in the futuro. He cannot
> y any hocus-pocus transform himself
nto u board of equalization , and his
> rontis a are about on a par with lii
> romisoi about the Hurdles.
A man who is BO very ambitious for
oflico inevitably fulis into inconsist
encies in his eagerness to catch at
every straw , Ho pretends to bo &
friend of the workingman. Ho claims
that the bulk of the money comes
from taxing the workingman , and yet
In the next breath ho urges the spill
ing of this money like mater , in order
to make the city boom , Ho , the pretended -
tended friend of the workingman , Ill
other words , is red hot to spend their
. The fact is irt'
money. and the willing
. promises knows it , the only way to so-
, euro t most just distribution of taxes
is through other channels than that
of a mayor , and especially so when
that mayor has shown by ono ( crm in
o&co hia inulHcioncy in righting the
* ' wrongs . complained . . _ . _ of , THO workingmen . . '

A Woman's Business Success.
New Yor * I lfcr to lloiton Traullcr
An immense business success has
been reached by the proprietress of
the largest nnd most respected Oer-
man daily paper in Now . . ork. This
lady was loft a widow with six nnmll
children , and a little newspaper which
slm desired to sell. Only $500 wad
the largest sum oflored for it. Hop
ing to find a more generous purchaser
later on , she persuaded its editor to
remain at its he d for n shut t time ,
but no ono wanted the little journal.
Its editor was a clover writer and a.
judicious selector of news , and month
by month the popularity of < the little
sheet gio\v and grow , nnd nt last , after
n year or two , she icHtiquishcd the
plan of parting with it at ull. She
married the editor , but she txlnays
, kept the business of the publication
J under her own care , learning by each
experience how to purchase paper
with moro intelligence , employ workpeople -
people , manage money , nod yet find
time to watch over and direct the
education of her boys and girls.
After a time she bccamo rich , fell into
the habit of driving down to her
handsome and retired ollico daily at
10 o'clock , to return again at J in the
afternoon to an elegant homo , fruin
which her accomplished daughters
wore happily married , and from which
her honored sons went forth to homes
of their owli. She has erected with
her earnings one of tlio handsomest
buildings in New York. Slio recent
ly gave § 50,000 to uu old ladies' homo
( German ) , nnd during nil these years
of prosperous toil she has never been
prosecuted or oppressed by men. In
deed , they have not oven dusired to
rise in her path or stand in her way ,
and ahu has never ceased to be uludy
of high bleeding and swcot womanly
sympathies. Dor Staats-Xoitung is
the leading German paper , and Der
Xeitung building is the most beauti
ful monumonfof woman's capacity to
do the very best bread-winning work
in the world , provided she gives her
mind , heart and enthusiasm to its ac
complishment. This tender mother ,
who must needs provide for her
young , wrought with surrh materials
as she had within reach , and aho never
cried out to the world to ask if she
might.
