This company is the National Life Insurance company of Vermont. whoso manager, Mr. M. L. Roedor, has just completed arrange- ments by which any poiicy holder of the company whoso insurance is in foree, will, if taken sick or overtaken by any injury or accident, be furnished with medicine, board and medical avtendance free of expense at the now St. Joseph’s hospital, one of the best equipped and best managed hospitals in the United States. The policies issued by the National Life are considered the best in the world, each policy having a guaranteed eash value, thus combining savings bank aud life insurance. Add to these features the puyment of the sick bills of unfortunate po icyholders and the company’s treatment ‘of its putrons be- comes s0 liberal that the immensoe busi- ness done by the western department needs no further explanation.

We have now over a million of population who are amply able to manare our state and municipal governments. I think every reasonable and fair-minded man iu this state wall ugrec with mo that the time has arvivea in this coun! when no man should be permitted to take part in directing and coutrolling the affairs of government, nationul, state or local, until be has become a citizen of the Unitea States. The evil of wllowiog a man to vote and nola oftice on his Hrst papers aud six months resideuco is at ance apparent. In the first place, it1s an inducement to & verson of foreign birth notto become a citiz When such a person-oan vote on his first papers aud be cligible to almost every oftice within the state and help elect presidents, the in- ducement to become a itizen 18 materially lessened. Agatn, it becets indiffer- ence and neglect ~ in regard to full citizeuship, and . leads to complica- tions in many ways; The examples of J. G. Tate, candidate for lieutenant gov- ernor on the republican ticket, and J. J. Mc- Tutosh, candidate for congress on the demo- cratic ticket in the Sixth. district at the late election, are fresh in our winds, aud should servo as convincing arguments in favor of a change in the consiitution us to the vlective Iranchise. Both theso gentlemen were compelled to de- cline and get off their respective tickets stmply because they had neglected to take out their second papers of citizenship. The law in regard to these two offices re- quires full citizenship to render the incuwm- bent eligible. The right Lo vote and to par- ticipate in the affairs of the government, make and unmake vresidents, and to hold office in tnis country should be esteemed the highost civic priviloge known o man, and 1o person should be permitied to do so until 10 has fully completed his citizenship. ‘There are five or six wostern states which, like Nebrasks, permit persons of foreign b'rth to exercise the olective frauchise ana hold ofice on their fivst pavers. This was properly allowablo when these states were voung and sparsely populaled, but there is no need for further continuance of the right. Furthermore, 1n the national elections it is untair to those states which requirve full naturalization as & qualification to vote. The elective franchise in this respect should be uniform. Uader the provisions in our state constitution on the eiective franchise an Arab from tho doserts of Arabia ora Slav fcom Hungory or Buigaria arriving at Castle Garden on the 1st day of Muy last could have taken the train for Omaha, remained here, and thirty days before tne clection de- clared his intention to become a citizen and participsted in -the eloction of tae president and vice president of the Unitea States. 1 am utterly opposed to this condition of the sucred rizht of the elective franchise in this state, This should not ve a party issue. All #ood citizens of all parties should jom in o petition to the legisiature to subwit ‘the pro- posed constitutional umendment herein suggestod. W. 5.

It is not wmy purpose to reply to any adverse comment that may have ap- peaced, mor euter into a controversy roia- tive to the merits or demerits of the operatic productions. I would have but a poor appreciation of the work I have undertaken aid I pormit wyself to regard it from a per- sonul standpont. It Omaha is to have and support a regular season of vpera cach year, and I have the futlest faith that she will, it will como throurh the hearty co-oneration of the paople of Omaha, and it will take several years of conscientious work on the part of its music-loving people before the productions will bo upon a plane which will give absolute satistaction, Toward those who have honestly criticised tho recent performances I feel rathior a sense of ovligation than of hostility. I'rionaly criticism, oven though adverse, is ossential to the growth and development of this plan. 1t should not ve forgotten, however, that mere assertion does not constitute criticism, Nothing could ve easier thar. to sav “it €00d,” or “it is bad,” but I do mnot under- stand that this would constitute a criticism, more especinlly when 1t is not over the name of a rocognized musical authority, » Some explanation is due the public con- cerning the chorus. It consisted of nine malo voices, which wero certamly good, and threo femaie voices. T'his fact alone rmust have suggested a_miscarriage of plans, Tho facts are these: My contract called for six- teen pick s of men and women, for whom' Mr, Maretzek held checks covering their salaries and expenses. . ive of the la- dies missod the train when the company left New York. Thd musical agent, through whom they were engaged, was notifiod of iko fact oy telegram from Pbiladelphia, and both Mr. Maretzelr and mvsolf exvected them to arrive in Omaha ou every train. On Monday, theday of the first opera, the musical burean wired us to use “'supes,” as a chorus could not be obtained. Wo then wired to Chicago, but could not gct a chorus 1 time to reach hiere beMre Friday evening. Tt has boen suggestad that the choras should have been augmented by se- curing the local singers. Unfortunately none were found acquainted with the re- quirements of chorus singing 10 legitimate overa, and Mr. Maretzek was unwilling to use an inexperienced chorus. By training a local chorus for next year, we expect to avoid anv possibility of such en embarvass- ment in the future, Tam glad to ba able to state that only words of commendation were expressed by Mr. Maretzek for the goxtlemen of the orchestra, anda personally [ am_exceedingly grateful to tnem, and 1 think Omaha should be proud of them for their rendition of the operas. Thore is material here for a larger orchestra, and if our plan for an annual season of operas is successful it will exist a vear from now.
