The oligarchicsl Government pre-
fer now and untried men for Gov
ernment positions since they gain
another "armsd" man, and a vote
for annexation. We don't blame
them for "americanizing" our civil
service on the principle of "to the
victors belong the spoils." The
INDEPENDENTS party will have all the
more places to "give away" when
annexation comes and the people
vote, and it is bad rule that will
not work both ways.

w We ought all to be happy and the

the winners in the annexation fight,
at least one would imagine so by
reading both sides in our local press.

annexation is ''coming," and we are

the plaudits showered upon the composer

ed out en- corps, but was satisfied with
being represented by few of it's numb
ers The audience was very democratic
| in dress, the full dress suit and the light
gown being very rare.
In preparing a text for his oratorio,
Mr.. Patten has attempted to sift out OF
the book of Isaiah the passages which
would prove most appropriate to his
plot, If it may be SO called, and which,
at, the same time possessed euphonic
beauty. '''
[ Dramatically, he has divided the story
into three parts, calling them the proph-
ecies, the downfall and the promises. The
first one is meant to place before the pub
lie the merry-making, scornful, God-for-
getting people of Israel, mocking the dir
eful warnings of the prophet. The second
part, which is designated as an intermez-
20, but which might have more proper
ly been called an Introduction to the
last part, represents the people lament
ing of their punishment and the anger of
Jehovah. In the third part are proclaim
ed the hope of forgiveness and the pros
pect of restored joy and happiness for
the righteous.
One of the strongest points of the
'tIhiah" are the chorus numbers, most
of which are sure to become favorites
with every audience that are given
chance to hear them. They are before
anything else melodious, and are in that
respect in strict keeping with the entire
work, Mr.. Patterns strength seeming to
lie in his ability to produce soft, gentle
flowing melodies that steal their way to
the very heart of the listener. There are
eleven choruses in Isaiah" each one of
which is we'll worthy of hearing.
This splendid chorus of over 100 voices
was made up of some of the very best
artists in this city. Among the number
were noticed Mrs. Agnes Hart of the Ho-
ly Rosary choir, contralto, and her broth
err Thomas Gallagher, the we'll known
third street caterer Tom possesses
fine bass voice and splendid physique
also. His fine athletic proportions clad
in very becoming dress suit of the lat
est cut made him noticeable figure
among the large number on the stage.
