The Irish standard., 1910-11-12

The defeat of Justice Thomas D.
O'Brien for the supreme bench is one
of the regretable results of last Tues
days election. Mr.. O'Brien's work on
the supreme bench was beyond criti
cism. He showed himself to be
competent and faithful judge and he
should have been returned to the Of
flee. The practice of picking out men
by their party label is to be deplored
when it results in excluding from Of
flee man of Mr.. O'Brien's type. The
fault lies with the Republican con.
vention. In justice to Mr. O'Brien II
should have placed his name on the
ticket. ze@ -

Deliver me from women seeking

the University of Michigan in his an

last two words of that sentence there
wouldn't be much question about the
delivery.

In an endeavor to force upon John
Lind the nomination for governor in
the face of that gentleman's most
positive declination, a few men, hav-
ing only their own selfish ends in
view, have been able to place the
Democratic party in a most deplor-
able position in this state and from
which it will take years to recover.

JANET spENcER-A STORY,

Janet Spencer, who was heard in
this city last year is gaining in popul-
arity and the following from the
Musical Courier will interest must.
clans:
Boston recently had the advantage
of hearing one of the renowned Ameri-
can singers, who pleased the audience
there, as she does in New York and
everywhere. through the intelligence
which she applies to the beautiful
quality of her voice and its usefulness.
Miss Spencer sings every thing from
Bach to the latest American. For in
stance, the Boston Advertiser said, in
its issue of November IL, that "she
succeeded in presenting the spirit OF
each nationality" That Is in itself a
remarkable gift. the gift of transfer
ring oneself as an artist from ones
own nationality to that which is fore.
ign to ones birth and training.
The Transcript, another Boston pa.
per whose critic Is also distinguished
for his keen judgment and his knowl-
edge. speaking of her voice, saws that
II is warn. plant and expressive, and
her lower tones have the true central
to richness without thickness or clum-
siness. The difficulty with a contralto
voice always has been thickness and
clumsiness Of utterance. 1t seems that
the lower vibrations. before they can
reach the air. are, with contraltos. en-
numbered through involved applica'
tions OF the breathing method. This
has been overcome completely by Miss
Spencer.
The Boston Traveller expresses In
one sentence something which applies
to every one who has reached an ar.
tistic elevation: Janet Spencer loves
to sing" This critic also says that
Miss Spencer gets at the heart of a
mood. Nothing is really more diff.
cult than to get at the heart of a
mood. unless one really has the ability
of extracting out of the musical com.
position its poetic character OF its
dramatic character, or whatever that
mood may be.
There are many good American sing
ers today, but Janet Spencer has a
record that makes every one engaged
in the musical art proud OF her as an
artist who understands. far deeper
than Is usually the case. the true sig
nificance of music as applied to the
vocal art and the true significance oil
the vocal art as applied to music.

the sympathetic strike. 1t was not
only the express companies and the
employees who suffered because of the
strike. but it was the public generally
that suffered, and was made to endure
hardships.
II is believed by advocates OF the
parcels post system that one effect of
the recent express strike will be to
remove some of the opposition OF the
small country merchant to the parcels
post bill, which is to come up before
the house committee on postoffices
and postroads early next month. The
committee last session heard much
testimony In favor of the measure that
had been recommended by the admin
istration. but 1t had to give way for
the postal savings bank. on which
President Taft had set his heart.
The postoffice department is pre-
pared to show, 1t is said, that a parcels
post would prove self-sustaining from
the very beginning and would go a
long way toward placing the depart.
ment on satisfactory financial basis.
