up -TO-DATE SINGING.

In the old time the words of the |
song, whether sacred or otherwise,
used to be very important part of
the exercise, but in these progressive
times, If a singer has 80 little music
in his ditty as to allow the words to
be recognized, he is sadly out of
line
We asked prominent singer some
time since why this was, aud he re-
piled that people were SUPPOSED to
either know the words, or have a
book and read them, that is il they
cared to know anything about them.
This was candid, and also in accord
ance with the facts, but it seemed to
us to be a bad state of affairs when
no matter what beauties the words
contain they become secondary
consideration.
How is it possible to appreciate the
beautiful sentiment that is contained
in so many of the songs and hymns
that are rendered when the words can
not be distinguished. For our part
the words are indispensable to our en-
joyment of the song, and also of tho
proper rendering of tho piece accord
ing to the spirit and meaning thereof.
We heard prominent choir leader
in Salt Lake City say a few few years
since that the same attention to in
flecion was necessary in singing as
reading in order to make the rendition
effective. II this is true how is it to
be done unless the words are sang
clearly and distinctly? 1t seems to
us as unreasonable to expect that the
full effect of song or hymn can be
given without the words are under
stood, as that sight of food should
be considered meal. And in rela-
ton to the new tunes, do they seem
to have the touching character that
many of the old ones had? 1t seems
that late tunes strive more after style
than pathos, and are written more to
display the deXterity of the performer
or singer than to stimulate or console
the hearers. Who, that has heard |
Mr.. Easton sing go, My Father. -
would be willing to dispense with
hearing the words of that beautiful
hymn? What would the singing be,
compared TO what it now is, even
when sang by an artist like Mr.. Eas.
ton, without the inspiring words of
the grand hymn?

We sec girl of nine helping her
mother to dry the dishes, watching
the baby and receiving general
training-so the mother calls tin
household duties. At fifteen the boy
still raises dust and gravel on the
ball ground, fights the umpire and
the score keeper and between ladies
of oatmeal water and home runs he
exhibits his biccps to the group of
admiring small boys. The girl has be-
come so much of lady at this age
that she has put on long skirts and
corsets, and does not care to go to
the grounds and clap her hands at
the games, as formerly.
At eighteen the two enter business
life. The young man as bookeeper,
perhaps, and the other as stenographer.
At twenty four the young lad is
successful business man, but the young
woman is then thin and nervous and
fretful. The career of both is pro-
crossing only so far as the physical
foundation of their youth supports
it. Mothers! Your girls have just
as good a right to sound, healthy
foundation on which to rear their life
work as your boys have. Let the
little girls do some of the chopping of
kindling wood and running of brands. |
1t will make them strong and sturdy. |
Let the little boys do some of the |
dish washing and by-tending, it |
will make them gentle and conside-
rate. Let your girls run races and |
play in the sun; don't put corsets
on them to hold them up, let them de-
velop strong backs and shoulders that
will need no support; let them romp,
and with fifteen years of sunshine and
exercise and healthy blood behind
them, they will have fair store of
vitality to draw upon, and we will
hear of very few girls breaking down
with hard study or hard work.
don't begin to make ladies of your
girls when they are six years old. What
we want in this country is fine, heal
thy, turdy, noble women. Mother,
be fair! Give your girl an equal
chance with your boy. Nenita Siebert

We regret that we could not have
made reply to the TRADE of the
Quaker medicine vendor before he got
out of the country, but we issue only
once week and as he was careful to
make his dates just so as to be out of

we are hardly to blame. However,
this issue will be handy for publish :

The conduct of lot of the rabble
this week when assaults were made
on the local paper and its publisher
by the herb peddler who has been
spending week in Cedar, is a fair
example of the ingratitude of such
people. Seeing that it was tho pur.
pose of the aggregation that had come
among them to fleece the people of
their hard earnings, we sought to
sound note of warming in their ears.
The whelp retaliated, of course, and
the rabble in effect shouted "sick-
emf What benefit do you suppose
we expected to derive from the ex-
posture of tho bilks? Could it mean
anything in or out of our pockets
If they fleeced you? No. But old
man Barnum knew what he was talk
ing about when he said that the peo-
pie liked to be bilked, and you were
glad to sec anything resented that
would have tendency to infringe
upon this right and pleasure.

Thirty two mistakes are all that the
wind bag professed to find in our
article of last week concerning the

and considerate in him. Wen
wager that the blow-hard who has
been holding forth in Cedar City for
the past week cannot write one-page
business letter without double that
number of errors.

The Times persists in its efforts
to discredit the facts printed in
these columns by saving that no
one stands sponsor for what ap.
pears i'll this department. Be-
fore accusing the Business Demo
crat of deliberately uttering an
untruth, we will again point him
to the head OF these columns,
where he will read: ''The four
columns below are published by
the Republican Central Commit
tee of Benton county," The
names of the gentlemen compos-
ing that committee appear a little
further down the column. AS
we said once before: The editor
ials appearing herein have the
of the Republican Gen.
trail Committee, while the cam
paign articles in the Times are
simply the official utterances of
Boss McFadden.

THE PLATFORM.

Resolved, That we favor the permanent
betterment of every highway in Benton
county, without regard to the political COM
plexlon of the section to which it leads
or through which it passes.
Resolved, That we favor the liberal but
intelligent exenditure of public money for
road improvement, under competent super
vision, and limited to the employment of
such methods as will provide good roads
without imposing unnecessary burden on
the taxpayers.
Resolved, Tint we favor an administra-
ton of county affairs which will render un-
necessary gradual increase of the taxpay-
ers' burden from year to year at time
when the county is free from debt, and there
is no demand for heavy expenditure OF
county funds.
Resolved, That we favor ar equal and
uniform system of taxation as prescribed by
the constitution and laws of this state. and
condemn in most severe terms policy
which discrlminates in favor OF one indi-
viduaLand against another
Resolved, That we favor the strict atten-
ton of every county officer to his duties pre-
scribed for him by law, and the faithful
observance of the obligations imposed by
his oath of office Adopted by the Benton
county Republican convention, March 81,
1904.

BE GENTLEMANLY.

cit is the truth that hurts" is
a homelv old saying that has come
to be an axiom. The truth fear
lessly told, will goad the guilty
into madness. A lie may be
silenced by a calm, dispassionate
statement.
Standing upon the solid rock
of truth, one may state his case
with dignity and repose. But
he who has beneath his feet a
quagmire of falsehood, will
plunge and struggle frantically.
Readers of the Times who had
the patience to follow the Busi-
ness Democrat through his long
struggle last Saturday, to which
their attention was called by his
cries of Losing Ground" had a
practical illustration of how mad
ly the guilty act when goaded by
the shafts of truth.
Be calm, Benjamin Franklin
be calm. Take it coolly. for your
frantic struggles but. mire you
deeper. You are addressing the
voters of Benton county who are
gentlemen. They have a right
to expect that your language and
behavior will be that of gentle
man. Only hoodlums call others
"bastards" and "idiots". Ifyou
must be protane and abusive,
pray indulge that weakness IN
private. In the name of decency,
be gentleman; when in the pres
ence of gentlemen.
Since it is doubtful if you re-
member all that you said in your
passionate rawlings in your Satur-
day issue, we will recall a few
things for you. One of your first
statements was that it has been
constantly reiterated that Judge
McFadden assumes to act as a
boss of Benton Democrats. "

fed" shall not be surprised if these
questions will arise in the minds of all

ceive this slap in the face without re-
sentiment or murmur? so, am forced

server that the politicians faith in the
gullibility of the masses is simply un-

The above, remember, is the
language and testimony of a good
old Democratic war-horse who
knew whereof he spoke.

Not one word rejecting upon
the character of any of the gen
tlemen upon the Democratic tick
ct has appeared in these columns,
nor has any personalities concern
ing them been INDUCED in. 1t is
our intention and desire to avoid
anything of this nature. An ex-
posure and vigorous arraignment
of the political methods of the
bosses will be continued in justice
to the whole people of Benton
county. AS in the past, they
will be considered only in their
capacity as politicians, unless they
adopt tactics which will render
more personal reference necessary.

4 VERY SLENDER PLEA.

The Business Democrat laments
that the present campaign could
not have been a ''good-humored
neighborly campaign with gentle
behavior on the part of the news
papers," He regrets that the dis
cussions couldn't have been con-
fined to such gentle, good-humor-
ed, neighborly articles as the
Times contained in the last cam
paign concerning Off Wilson,
Republican candidate for clerk
or such brotherly, warm-hearted
editorials as the Times printed re-
gardiug Johnny Gellatly, Re-
publican candidate for clerk in
the campaign OF 1900; or such
little pleasantries as the Times
had in reference to Messrs. Sol
King and S. N. Lilly, when Geo.
E. Lilly was Republican candi-
date for sheriff. The Business
Democrat infers that he would
have been pleased even if the
pace he set when he was latter
the scalp' of George Smith and
Geo. A. Waggoner, when they
were candidates of the Republi-
can party, could have been main-
tained in the present campaign.
The Times preferred peace, he
says, but was only waiting for
an excuse to put in operation the
plan of attack outlined by Judge
McFadden in his speech before
the Democratic convention held
in this county. In that speech,
Judge McFadden abused the Re-
publican candidates, and other
gentlemen who "were not issues. "
He said, "Bill Yates big belly
would be good target for shots, "
and the Times fired few of these
''shots" at Mr.. Yates early in
the campaign. When it was
pointed out that the Business
Democrats father nominated Mr..
Yates in the Republican conven-
ton for senator, vouching for his
fitness for the position, his char
acter as man, and his worth as
a private citizen, the Times
found itself in the position of
calling the editors father a liar.
"John Henry" was then ap-
preached to handle the subject in
a series of communications, but
that gentleman has so far refused
to make himself a party to a
scheme which could only result
in satisfaction for the bosses and
and injury to himself.
So, Mr.. Business Democrat,
you will have to come out from
behind that plea that you have
been trying to be good. You are
not half hidden.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1904-05-17

Yes, Mr.. Business Democrat,
''the people admire sincerity and
love the truth. They despise du-
plicity and hate fa1sehood." That
is the reason that they regard
your utterances with suspicion,
when you tell them that $7.2o is
a great saving to the county, and
that it is ''dollars in the pockets
of the taxpayers when the sheriff
of Benton county doesn't employ
a deputy.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1904-05-17

The Times says ''it was not
necessay for newspaper venom to
have entered into this campaign" :"
The trio of bosses probably pre-
ferred to resort to such vile PAM
phlets as they circulated against
Off Wilson two years ago. Ven
ON is too mild a term for such
stuff as that contained, however.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1904-05-17

The Times asks "who can re-
sist the temptation to vote for''
one of its candidates. We are
admonished by the Good Book,
to ''yield not to- temptation" "
Republicans should remember
this when they go to the poles
next month.
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1904-05-17

Are we to understand that the
Business Democrat would like to
have discussion regarding ''some
of the bargains he has driven ?"
Some very interesting articles
could be written on the subject.
