has earned popularity by writing a is»

Mr. Harris was an obscure banjo
teacher in Milwaukee. He had written
several ballads. but none of them
“caught on" until one morning in the
spring at run heawcka to llnd himself
lemons. Orders for "After the Ball"
cause from leading dealers in 5,000 lots.
and he began to enjoy an income oi over
31,000aday.
His first songs were sold to publishers.
but he decided to become his own pub-
lisher. and one oi his songs, written be-
fore “After the Ball," and entitled “Kiss
and Let's Make Up," netted him 88,000.
Mr. Harris is about 30 years of age. He
lives in Milwaukee in o. sixteen-room
house, built by him a year ago. He is
married.
When asked by a correspondent about
his method of compositions. he replied:
“There are weeks at a time when I do
not touch a piano or think of composing.
I play byear only. and do not know a
single note. My arranger. Mr. Joseph
Clander, who is, in my estimation, one of
the beat strangers in the country to-
day, is the leader of the orchestra at
Davidson’s Theater. Whenever i have
asongto take down I sound for him. I
play it oil by car to him, and he jots it
down. Then he plays it over in the right
key. and ii there are any mistakes I cor-
rect them.
“I do not write vulgar songs. My
songs are tuned in every home in the
United States which has a piano or a
parlor organ. I write for the people and
my subjects are taken from life. I re-
ceive hundreds of letters daily from all
classes of people. irom bootblacka to so-
ciety belles. who desire me to put music
to their poems. l have tried it several
times, but have always found it an utter
impossibility. ,
“I write both words and music oi. the
same time. and if you will pick up any
of my songs you will ilnd that the words
and music harmonize closely. in com-
posing a song a man must have musical
ability, and must also be something of a

“1 attended a ball in Chicago given by
one of the prominent clubs there, and
stood talking to a handsome business

followed a certain young lady in the
ballroom. I lound out subsequently
that they had been outraged. but. bad
parted through some lovers’ quarrel.
While he was dancing with other girls
she Would anxiously watch him. I knew
by the expression of their faces that their
hearts were aching.
”On my return home I was in my silica
completely tired out when a member of
the Wheelmen’s club come and asked
me to compose a song for an entertain-
ment to be given by the club. i told
him I was too tired after the ball, but if
he would leave me alone i could perhaps
compose something for him in time for
the entertainment. The wards ’after the

It was an answer to a request made
by 0 State board, and it will be .pro
stead to the Legislature along with the
reporter the bard. In the course at the
letter the judge says that the cause of
the srlks lies in a state not disquiet and
moral protest, not confined to the am-
Plonfl of company. which was
caused by at speculative uses and
manipulations which the companies
have been subjected to by certain indlv
vidnala who have come into control 0!
them. He then discusses the Brooklyn
City Roilroad company. . Until three
-years ago, he says, it had $8,000,000 in
stocks and “3,000,000 in bonds and paid
big dividends. Then its bonded indebt~
edneas was increased to {6,000,000. and its
capital stock to $12,000,000.
“It is true," says the judge, “that a
change was nindc from horses to elec-
tricity at this time. Whether the cost
Was equal to the uctunl increase is a
question for railroad builders."
The two steps utter this, the judge
says. are what accuse the public con-
science. Those in control of the company
leased it for 999 years to the Brooklyn
Heights company. which they got con-
trol of. By the‘terma of the lanes, the
Heights company agreed to pay the in-
terest on $6,000,000 in bonds and $10,000.-
000 in stock. it was to keep oil the over-
plus.
“Thus this little company was made
the absorber of all the earnings of the
Brooklyn City company over and above
what would have to be taken to pay the
interest and dividends. but. this did not
satisfy these who had gene that far.”
The judge tells next how the Long
Island Traction company woe organized
in West Virginia. with a capital of $30,-
000,000. “I need hardly say this huge
paper company had not a day’s work or
adollar back of it. It did not own a
steel rail, :1 stick of wood, or anything in
theworld. All that there was of it was
on paper. It was not a railroad company.
but a business. its very name being a
falsehood. It was brought up to Brook.
lyn, and those who created it, and also
owned and controlled the little Brooklyn
Heights company, turned over to it the
certificates of stock (mum) of the latter
company, and thus. connected by these
two links and the Brooklyn City com.
pany, this West Virginia. company, with
its paper capital of Mllloiwoll. became
the absorber, through the little Brooklyn
Heights company, of all the euruings of
the Brooklyn City company over the in-
terest on bonds [illil the 10 per cent. on
stock."
The object of this. tllejudge goes on to
soy, wax to absorb it surplus out of the
Brooklyn City cornpuny large enough to
pay n dividend on the MLMMXM oi paper
stock of the “'est Vlrglulu company.
thereby to nmke that stuck Worth par
and enrich the holders thereof out. of the
industry of others. To do this it was
necessary to out. down expenses to the
lpwest point. The history at the Atlantic
Avenuocompnny, he says, is the some.
“Thus. with this just apprehension on
the part of the employees. and the im-
pulse cn the other hand to out every ex-
pense down, it. was natural that even
a small dispute should become a serious
rupture. Nothing else could be reason
ably expected from such feverish and un-
healthy conditions.”
Next the judge says tlmt all the trans
actions Wore lawful; but he risks is the
law always right in wlmt it permits, and
he answers that. if it were so we would
never need so cbungv, A little later he
says that. the Lrllllrizii‘llllllri are not. singu-
lar to Brooklyn. and tlmt in place of
being checked by law's ilnvy are often fas-
ten-«l lu- lmvs.
"i. this condition were to continue,”
he says. "what the 0nd would be no one

in history con full to perceive with clear
vision. The prime object of govcrnment
is to promote distributive justice and
thereby motifs the governed stable and
content, and no government which does
not do this may. in the nature of things,
loruz endure."
The judge concludes by Rtiylllfl that the
immediate dispute which led to the
strike didn‘t (loserve serious attention.
and under henltlly conditions the dis.
pute slmulll not have lusts-ll n single
