pie, OF this city and was especially
congratulated by Father Dominick, a
Mus. Doc. OF Mt. Angel Benedlctine
college. who came especially to hear
this oratorlo, and at the close was in
trOduced and expressed himself as
highly pleased, saying in substance
that 1t was equal to the work of a
most famous Beethoven chorus in
Munich.
He invited Prof. Heritage to assist
in the production Of an opera soon To
TO be put forth at Mt. Angel college,
and the professor accepted.
There is a good prospect Of Sale IN
having more classical music thi is spring
and IL deserves the warmest support
OF all our people. The Messiah ought
to be given 10 full 10 at least four Of
the largest churches OF this city,
though We do not know as that is
practical. 1t ought TO be produced
10 every city Of any size in Oregon.
No city has the musical talent that
Salem has for large choruses, and no
city in the West has man like Herr
tage.

Have neither talked nor correspOnded
with any Republican this campaign,

IL is without my knowledge or con-
sent. 1 will oppose fusion Just as l
did in this county two years ago and
defeat il also. Honest Populists will
not vote a fusion ticket, "they ought

and 1 fully approve Of his let
ter, and the pitiful howl Of
scheeming politicians will not deter
honest Populists from standing by
Mr.. Young and oppose fnsion for
the spoils of office. This letter is
lengthy and plain language is used,
but hold no malice against you. l
have learned better. You fellows
think that all is fair in politics, but
in the end you will find that honesty
is the best policy.
W, II, SPAUGH.
We have no comment TO make on
Mr.. Spaugh. He was Peoples Depo-
cratic-Silver-Republican electOr in
1896 and soon after election wrote
US with satisfaction that enough Pop
ulists stayed at home in three counties
he named to carry Oregon for McKin-
ley. We hope never to have it said OF
US that we satisfied q mortgage out of
the proceeds Of political treachery.
That was said Of Mr.. Spaugh. We
hope he is a sincere and honest man.
We can have no controversy with
him however. ED. JOURNAL.
