The eminent basso, Karl Formes,
tells American parents that they make
a grave mistake in sending their chill
dren to Italy to study music when they
can obts:n much better results at home.
He says musical science is at it's lowest
level in Italy, and the great singers ara
not Italians.

Sncreased uetnanu. Again lee Inc
ask the questions, in what does the
principles of this political new de-
parture consist? And where Is the
oppression of which they complain?
Truth is what an intelligent public
demands. Do these asserted princi
pies consist in the violation of the
moral obligation of the order upon
which God was called to witness?
There was an expressed contract
made in good faith between all the
parties of this order, and guaranteed
by the constitution and by laws, that
this order would in no wise interfere
with ones political sentiments or
abridge the right to the free and
untramelled exercise of those senti-
ments, and contrary to the obliga-
tions OF this contract, (binding bv
all that is sacred and honorable in
man. by all the reverence in man for
his obligation before God, the mem
bers Of this order have been called
upon to elect delegates TO the county
convention to be held under this
trampled and violated constitution,
where was framed political plat
form and a political ticket named
for the Brothers Of Freedom. I sub
NIT this question to all men, and es-
pecially those democrats who belong
to the order, and ask, is this not a
violation Of your constitution, a vi
olation of the guarantee that this
order would in no wise interfere with
ones political sentiments? Have not
mems political sentiments been in
terfered with in this matter? Have
not men been driven from your or
der on this account? Where is the
principle in this transaction, and
where is the cement Of your brother
hood? Where Is the moral obligation
of that guaranteed TO be continued.
