Final Musical Program
At Georgetown Visitation

ANNUAL events in the music de-
partment of the Georgetown
Visitation Convent were brought to
an auspisous close last Sunday eve
ming by an exacting program pre-
sented by three of this years gradu-
ates from the college--Jane Wells
Coonan, soprano; Sarah Jane Coates
and Mary Cecilia. Ahern, pianists.
Miss Coonan has lyric voice of
lovely quality and gave her songs
with simplicity and directness. that
so won. her audience that the mo
encore rule was ignored and she re-
peated' her last number "The False
Prophet, >. by John prindle Scott; her
other selections being "The Answer -
by r. Huntington Terry, and Loves
on the High Road" by James II.
Rogers. ~e=...
I: Miss Coates was notably at her best
in the Chopin "Nocturne" played
with much feeling though her vigorous
rendition of 1.-THE Dance" by De-
busy, also met with pronounced
favor from the audience. She gave
also "Capriccio," by Brahms, and
"Etude," by Cyril Scott.
Miss Ahern's playing was marked
throughout by mellow tone quality
cate interpretation of "The Grove of
julie" from Franz Bendel's suite "On
Geneva Lake." made it one of the
gems of the program, as we'll as the
"Valse Celebre" of MosZkowski, which
she gave brjlliancy and a fine sense
Of rhythmic values. Among her other
numbers were the Sonata Op. 27. No
e." and "Die Lorelei," by Hans
Seeling.

Of the country. l wished they might
have come earlier for those greet
ings. Once inside the church, how
ever. everything was absolutely quiet
and not whisper was heard from
the time the program began until
it was ended, and, OF course, there
was no applause. The feeling that
this was a sacred performance was
very marked; every one seemed to
have the spirit of devotion to some
thing that was great, immortal, hit
ing them out of themselves. The
choir. numbering 800, made a beautl-'
full picture. ;,
"While should not have wished
to miss the Friday afternoon and
evening programs of lovely motets
and chorales, the mass was, OF
course, the event of the festival.
For this there was an innovation, no
soloists being used and the entire
group of each voice singing the solo
parts. Particularly was the be-
seeching quality of the 'Agnus Del
brought out by the massed altos.
Here, too, the playing of the. orches-
ira was fine. the 40 men having been
recruited from the New York Sym
phony to accompany the mass.
They seemed to catch the spirit OF
the thing and follow. the conductor
admirably. Just before the mass be-
gan the trombone choir was heard
in the distance playing softly one
of the chorales, and as the final notes
died away DR.. Wolfe and his choir
were ready with those trst tour
wonderful bars of the 'kyrle Elel-
SON. Surely he is unique Ill his
power to develop a spiritual. COM
bined with dynamic quality in his
choir which makes the performance
an unusually impressive ceremony.
Between the two sessions OF the
mass it was delightful to see large
number of young men and women
carrying the score and feeling en-
tirely at home in the unusual
atmosphere. Many of them stood
during the performance.
The newspaper reports of this
latest performance under that wiz
ard, DR.. Fred ]. Wolfe, with the
choral singing of the. solos and the
change in orchestras from the Phila-
delphia to the New York, all agreed
with Mrs. Parker's account. that the
festival performances were highly
| successful

to Bethlehem included Miss Lucy

seventh performance of the mass; !;

sisted chiefly in casting votes for
Mr.. Pepper.
Similar Methods
Similar methods were employed in
other parts of the State.
At the same time Ware, the op.
posing candidate, was gathering his
sinews of war. The curious thing
about his contributions are that men
known as notorious 'grafters at cleo
lions were admitted to have given
sums ranging from $4,000 to $751;
900 and some of them refused to dis
close the source from which they oh.
tanned their money and others failed
to give a satisfactory account.
The political machine in Phila.
delphia is so closely organized that
it is commonly understood that
money and power and not the votes
of the people control the election.
Against Ware and his cohorts the
Mellon forces pronounced anathema
maranaths. They decided Ware un.
fit for the office of United States
Senator, that his methods were viii
famous and corrupt, that he was al
together bad. Yet the day after
Wares victory, these same forces raj
lied to his support. Mr.. Mellon be-
came the chairman Of the committee
to conduct Wares campaign and to
consummate at the polls the cleo.
ton of this man whom they had pro-
nounced so utterly unworthy of the
high office of United States Senator
during the primary campaign.
The election was held and William
B. Wilson swept to the corporate
limits of Philadelphia with a ma
jority of $4,000. The election car.
ried to the people of Pennsylvania.
where they were allowed to vote and
where the votes were counted, they
rallied to his support. Decent Re.
publicans everywhere revolted ut the
atrocities committed to which have
referred.
But the Republican machine at
Philadelphia did its work. 1t rolled
up an apparent vote so great that
Ware apparently was elected by a
majority of approximately 100000
votes.
This spectacle has Mortified this
country. 1t has turned the stomach
of decency and has scared the con-
science of men as with a red-hot iron.
Yet we find that one of the chief
actors in this iniquity was w. l..
Mellon. who not only sits serenely i'm
the Capitol of the United States, but
almost from the White House steps
declares to the country that the.
moneys contributed and used in
Pennsylvania were as honestly con-
tributed and as fairly expended as
contributions to a church Of Jesus
Christ.
And so I say that the red line OF
corruption runs through the Capitol
of the Nation and crosses the White
House grounds.

Jeffersonian Principles Cited
at Dinner of Democratic
SCribeS.

Here is the speech of Senator
James A. Reed Of Missouri at the
indiana Democratic Editorial Asso
ciatien banquet Tuesday night al
the Claypool:
trust that nothing I may say
tonight will be taken as reflection
upon the integrity or patriotism Of
individual Republicans.
We cannot determine the quality
of mans integrity by ascertaining
his political adherence. Men of al
parties possess their virtues ani
vices.
I frankly concede that the in
dividual Republican is patriotic, de
sires good-government and would
like to see the public business con
Quoted impartially and honestly just
as Democrats so desire.
When, however, we consider the
two parties in the aggregate, meas
uring them by their party policies
and estimating them by the conduct
of their party policies and estimating
them by the conduct of their party
leaders, we are forced to conclude
that nearly all the great politica
scandals which have shocked the ma
tional conscience must be laid at the
door of the Republican party.
The reason may be found in the
influences which give direction tt
party councils and dominate officers
selected at such councils.
If the purpose for which party
exists is to render disintereste6
service to the country, that spirit
will influence the conduct of of
ficers by it selected.
If, however, the party is con-
trolled by those who seek to exploit
the government for their own ad
vantage, bribery, fraud and all forms
Of villainy are bound to come into ex
istence.
Without for a moment pretending
the Democratic party is composed
exclusively of saints, or that selfish
influences have not at times been
exerted upon it, the truth neverthe.
less remains that, speaking broadly
this may be said of our party, viz:
It's cardinal principles were first
formulated in the brain Of the great
est protagonist of human liberty who
ever lived, Thomas Jefferson;
He, more than all others, believed
in the right of the people to govern
themselves;
His great blows were always
struck for freedom;
His pen never wrote law limit
ing individual rights;
He never, framed a statute Great
ing special privilege or granting
to any interest the power to prey
upon the people.
He constantly sought to limit the
powers of government. Upon the
anvil of justice with the hammer
of logic he broke into fragments the
shackles Of precedent and privilege
He declared that in the intellec
tual and spiritual world there were
no human masters; that there were
no dungeons for the mind-no pris
ons for the soul.
In an age of intolerance, he com
PEELED bigots to accept the statute
of religious liberty. For the dogma
Of divine rights Of kings he substi
