DEMOCRATIC AFTERMATH
The Delegates to the State
Convention at Vancouver
Return
Full of Democratic Enthusi-
asm and Unterrified
Harmony
National Delegate Maloney
Says He Is a Cleveland
Enthusiast

A number Of the delegates to the
state convention of the unterrified De
mocracy, which met at Vancouver on
Wednesday, returned yesterday morn
ing. Among these were NJ. j. NIalo
ney, who has the honor of being del
gate to the National Convention al
Chicago, having won his spurs and Sc
cured that position at the state conven
ton, and p NJ. Isensee, Ellery Rogers
a. J. Rittenhouse and w. Walsh, OF
New Whatcom, and l.. j. Flanagan, oi
Nooksack city.
The returned delegates were all i'm q
happy frame Of mind and particularly
well pleased, because Whatcom county
will be represented at the national con-
vention.
The state convention is described, OF
course, as being exceedingly har-
monious, and the blood of old war
horses and young recruits pulsated
through the Democratic system with
vastly accelerated speed as the glories
and triumphs of the past were re-
counted, and the golden promises of
the future unveiled before them by the
orators present, chief among whom was
Colonel James Hamilton Lewis, of
Seattle.
George Hazard was unsparingly
condemned, because of his telegram to
David b. Hill, to the effect that the
state convention did not favor Cleve-
land. 1t was the concensus Of opinion
that Hazards usefulness as secretary
Of the state committee was done and
that he would be summarily retired
Alas! poor Hazard.

HERALD representative, "that w. II.

that / have never been a Cleveland
enthusiast. This is not so. / have
always been for Cleveland, but at the
same time | am for the candidate of the
Democratic party, whoever he may be.
! believe that in order to insure success
the party must carry New York
without this state the result will be
extremely doubtful, but with its vote
assured victory of no uncertain kind
will ride pretty high on the Democratic
banners. That's the kind Of an en-
thusiast | am, " and the delegate-elect
turned to receive the congratulations
Of party of friends, political and per-
sOnal.

The oratorial Concert a Brilliant
Success

The oratorial Concert a Brilliant
Success
Notwithstanding the disagreeable
weather last evening large audience
assembled at the Lighthouse theatre to
hear the May musical festival, and all
who attended were delighted with the
entertainment. 1t was without doubt
the most successful and finest concert
ever given on Bellingham Bay. The
chorus Of over eighty voices was the
largest and the best trained ever heard
here, and sang together with excellent
harmony.
Rev. Carlo Sperati, under whose di-
rection the chorus has been i'm training,
has proven his ability as musical di-
rector and may well feel proud of his
success.
The entertainment commenced at
$50 with the rendition of"Paul Jonesn
by an orchestra composed of Miss Ben
son, Mr.. Griffin, DIR. Adams, Mr. In
graham, Mr. Burgess, Mr.. Greenland,
Mr.. G. Bacon and Mrs. Black. The
music Of the orchestra throughout the
entertainment was uniformly excel
lent, and contributed not little To the
success of the concert. The chorus Sc
lectiOns from the great oratorios were
rendered with volume, harmony and
spirit. The HallelUjah Chorus from
the Messiah, with orchestra accom-
paniment, and the Damascus Tri-
umphal March from Naaman, were
sung with grand power and har-
mony.
The solo, magnetic Waltz" by Mrs.
f. Il. Trimble, was greeted with a
storm of applause. She possesses a
voice of remarkable sweetness and
clearness.
Mr.. Olaf Udness, a vocalist of recog-
nized talent and culture, possessing a
voice OF great power and richness, sang
selection from the sublime "Crea-
ton" of Haydn in a true oratorial
style. The female trio, Heaven" by
Mrs. Clifford, Mrs. NJ. l.. Stangroom
and Mrs. A. l.. Black, was excellently
rendered and well received.
The double quartet, ain This Hour
of Softened Splendor,p by Mrs. Trim
BILE, Miss Musgrave, Mrs. A. =. Cole,
Mrs. Magee, and Messrs. Meikle,
Keith, Udness and Trimble, was an
excellent selection, rendered with feel
ing sweetness.
Mendelssohn's "Capriccio Brillante,"
performed upon the piano by Rev.
Carlo Sperati, was most enjoyable
feature of the concert.
The entertainment will be repeated
next Monday evening for the benefit of
the Y NJ. G. A. and the B. b. bubble
library.
The gentlemen and ladies who have
given so much of their time i'm prepar-
ing for this concert are deserving cf the
encouragement Of the public, especially
since the merit of the entertainment
Is known.
