Before coming to the Messiah l
would like to say few words con-
cerning oratorios in general.
( Music we are found to admit Is the
most social of the arts, not because 1t
is the most universally beloved, but
also because it affords the largest op-
portunities for cooperation, among
the greater forms of musical art, the
one most enjoyed, and encouraged by
the people in general is the oratorio.
This is explained by two reasons,
viz: First, Because of the prominence
of the chorus, which unites In
sympathetic emotional expression a
large number of people, and second.
the fact that the subject Of the oratorio
being almost invariably religious, and
in most cases biblical appeals to the
deepest and most widely cherished
human interests.
Not only is the impulse pervading
the singers a. social one. since they

TAX Law is NOT
DISCRIMINATORY

Bismarck. N. D., Jan. 5.-The su-
preme court this morning rendered a
decision relative to the inheritance tax
law in which it was brought out that
the imposition of per cent tax on
property descending to neices and
nephews and 3 per cent to cousins was
not an arbitrary discrimination in
favor of cousins.
The matter of constiutionality Of the
law was not before the court it being
merely a question as to whether
mandamus proceedings or an appeal
was the proper method of getting the
matter before the supreme court, after
the district court had ruled against
the executor in the Fred Strauss will.
claiming he was not compelled to pay
$1,400 tax on the grounds of arbitrary
discrimination.

And 1t is a building that Is at once n

monument to the enterprise of the city
and a prophecy of what this enter
prise will make OF the city. 1t is n
notable fact that this building has
been erected without the issuance of n

kind. The best part of it is the citi-
zens of Fargo have. out OF their own
purses, raised the money to erect and
complete this great building.

Some have expressed disappoint-

people should remember that this
building was not built as a theater. It
was built as "a convention hall-ar
place where the people of North Da-
kota could gather for the meetings of
various kinds that are held annually
In the city.
After exhaustive investigation It
was found that 1t was impossible to
combine thcatcr and an auditorium

Fargas magnificent new auditorium
and armory was opened for the first
time last night when large audience
gathered at the new building to listen
10 a number of representative men
speak and to witness the production Of
Milestones. Those who composed the
audience last night can feel that they
were units OF the first gathering that
ever sat in the building and are ones
who helped to initiate the new struC-
ture to its uses.
Every preparation had been made
and there was not a detail lacking to
make the affair a most beautiful and
impressive one. The decorations were
superb and the vast structure was
heated to just the right temperature
for the comfort of those in attend
ance.
There was just one disappointment
That was the inability of Gov. l.. b.
Hanna to be present. However, Gov
ernor Hanna commissioned ex-Gov-
ernor Z. Y. Sarles of Hillsboro as his
representative at the opening and as
usual Ex-Governor Sarles had some
thing of interest to say.
The big crowd began TO arrive soon
after o'clock and by the lime that
the program started, at about 7:45
o'clock, the house was well filled with
enthusiastic people. The Town Crier's
club, in evening dress, acted is ushers
and handled their end of the work in
a most commendable manner.

After a splendid number by the
large symphony orchestra the curtain
was run up on the stage setting Of
the first act of "Milestones" and the
speakers of the evening filed out and
took the comfortable looking uphol-
stored seats of 1850 that comprised

ligion, but the members of the audi+i
ence are united for the time being inI
a common sentiment.
The oratorio as composite form OF
art draws its forms. styles, ideas, and
methods Of execution both from
church music and the opera, combining
some Of most impressive qualities or
both. 1t is not bound to to a ritual
or restrained within the limits of the
purely devotional like the music Of
worship. but it shares the grandeur.
nobility and pathos of church music.
1t Is free from the spectacular tend
encies and the over emphasis upon,
vocal virtuosity. which too often in the
opera magnify the sensuous at the
cost of the intellectual. In the oratorio
performance and listeners should hear
the work in mood OF seriousness be-
cause of it's nature Works of un-
doubted artistic power and especially
those of the type of the Messiah owe
their unshaken position more to the
text and subject than to the music

U. s. TO CERTIFY
ALL CARGOES

London, Jan. 5.-The British govern
ment was informed of the decision Of
the Washington authorities to certify
American cargoes regarding the exact
contents before leaving American
ports. 1t is felt here that this action
will assist appreciably in solving the
difficulties which led to the presenta-
ton of the note from Washington con-
cerning British interference with Am
erican shipping.
Ambassador Page received from
Secretary Bryan a message outlining
a circular to American shippers, which
urges that all manifests be complete
and accurate as a protection against
delays of American cargoes. The
treasury department offers to assist in
the work.

Washington, EJan. 5.-Sir Cecil

transmitted to the state department
a copy of mail report from Charge

week ago were deplorable.
High commendation was given
Eduardo Iturbide, former governor of
the Federal district, for his efforts in
saving the lives of Britons and Ameri-
cans when the Zapata forces entered
the city. Since then Iturbide has sue
ceeded in getting out of the hands of
the Mexican officials who threatened to
execute him and, according to official
reports received here, he now is in the
