THE BAND CONTEST. ; - The Famous Salisbury Band Knocks the < Persimmon at Berlin, The big celebration at Berlin, July dh, is pronounced a great success by alt who attended from this place; T hey say the town was beautifully decorated ‘and was thronged with people from all parts of the county. The old Burg did herself proud in taking care of her many guests and all went merry as a marringe hell. But the one great feature of the big cel- ebration in which Salisbury was inter. ested was the bund cantest, which ended just as as The STAR predicted—a grand and fairly won victory for the grand old Salisbury silver cornet band. The con- test. was engaged in by the Salisbury, Berkley’'s Mills, Pine Hill and a mixed band from Confluence and ‘Scottdale. ‘Confluence felt dead sure of carrying away the highest honors, having se: cured thie services of some of the best mu- sicians in Scottdale (so we are reliably infornted) to help them out. They also hada German professor with them, un- der whose able instruction they have been playing fora long time. But alas for Confluence! Alas for the German pro- fessor! Alas for the hirelings from Scott- dale! Alas! Alas! They would have gotten there, if they could have played well enough and Salisbury wouldn't have been in the way; but that being the case the premiums were awarded: in the fois lowing order: Salisbury, 1st; Confluence, 2nd; Berkley’s Mills, 8d. The decision gave universal satisfaction to the people; ‘as the judges were all disinterested per: .{'sons and expert musicians, Other bands may make use of profes: sors and hirelings, if they want to, but } they must remomber that so far as music is concerned the Salisbury band boys are about all vrofessors themselves. : Even it our band was all broke up fora year of more and reorganized . only a few months ago, it can get there just the same and there is no other band in the county that is half a match forit, { The Meversyie band was expect 1 10 cause he had married a wife. Otlier bands may prate of their music, and brag of their playing, and boast of professors all day. but the Salisbury boys will take the first prize, because they are built that way. Following is what other county papers. have to say concerning the contest: The prize was captured by the Salis- bury boys and it is only fair to them to say that they have the best drilled nmusic- ab organization in the county.—8Somerset Herald. The band contest took place between 6 and 7 o'clock inthe evening. at the low- er dinmond, amid an immense concourse of people who had assembled for tie double purpose of hearing the bands play their best pieces and of witnessing the outcome of the contest. Four bands en- tered the race, namely, the Salisbury, the Confluence, the Berklgv’s Mill and the Pine Hill band. They playéd turn about and kept it up until each band had played three pieces, doing 80 in the following order: Salisbury, Berklev's Mill, Confin: ence. Pine Hill. ' The judges were Prof. F. W. Bushong, of Philadelphia, Prof. Lawrence Hirshhorn, of N. Y., and Mr. . H. Stetson of Connellsville. Accord ing to a system of prineiples in music by which they guaged the quality of the i playing, the averages resulied thus: Sal. ishury, 90; Confluence, 85; Berkley's Mil, 8%: “Pine Hill, 633. The prizes were distributed accordinely, Salisbury getting 1825, Confluence $10 and Berkley's Mill 1 $5. The decision of the judges was be: | Heved to he fair and all seemed to be satisfied with the way tirey decided. — Berlin Record. . In conclusion we will say that the Bal- ishury band get better marks on the sec- ond and third selection than on the first, getting 100 per cent. on their last selec- tion, while the reverse was the cnse with the aggregation from Confluence and Scottdule and the highest mark received | ‘by that band was 95. Furthermore, the Salistury band played uimerous pieces during the day just a8 good as their con- test pieces, while the Confluence and Scottdale gang did not. Confluence had a square break down while trying to play, immediately after the aontest, hut that was probably becanse they were all broke up over the result of their defeat. tee ———— Here's Fun in Large Chunks. The editor of the Berlin Record can: make a great Pan-American ass of him- selt and not half try. Some time ago: the Record said this: ‘If you are op- | posed to high taxes and price-fixing trusts, subscribe for the Record. * Taw STAR then good-naturedly got off the following: The Record is doubtless a great trust smasher and tax anniliilator. - It should at once start a private graveyard 10 bury the {rusts it kills. As for us and our house, all we bave to say is this: If you want a live, progressive county paper, one that prints all the news, subscribe for Trg STAR. Some coliniry papers are so bnsy killing trusts that they have no time to print the news. Then the Record man's wrath was: kindled; and lie held up his hands in hor- ror and lifted up his voice as if by a crow- bar and vented his spleen in this wise: “Tri STAR is published ina jcominn- nity of farmers and mine laborers. vet jt is apparently unopposed to tax-dodging: and the trusts, If that is Tag Star's at: titnde, it is neither in line with the senti- ments of the class of whom its comymn- nity is ehiiefly made up or with the pro- fession of the party it claims to helang to.” Gee whiz, what a splurge! It's awful, jsn't it, that Tae STAR isn'ta calamity- howling organ? For the benefit of the Record we will state that THE STAR is published in an enlightened community where the calamityites are few and far between. Our people are all prosperous and have plenty of work and good wages. They are too busy and too intelligent to howl with the calamityites. therefore they say nothing and saw wood. They want their loeal paper to devote its time to printing the news instead of posing as a great trust smasher and tax-annihilator, and THE Star fils the bill and gives gen- eral satisiaction. THE STAR is just as much opposed to trusts and tax-dodging as the Record is, butit isn’t a dyed-in:the- wool calamity paper of the Record stripe. On secount of priming the news, which is the mission of a newspaper, as we un- derstand it. Jt has neithér the time nor space to do as the Record does—send up ‘whole columns of doleful calamity howls every week and bellyache and whine for subscribers just because it is opposed to trusts. We have observed long ago that ‘the men who howl most about taxes are those who have practically ‘none to pay. ‘What does a poor man’s tax, in Pennsyl vania, amountio, anyway? The labor: ér's household goodscan hot be taxed, and outside of thas, what has he to be taxed? Therefore, where dues the poor man’s ‘18x come in and who Pays the taxes that there is 80 much said about in the Record? Even people in moderate circumstances 'f eed pay but very little tax in this state. | For example we will take the editor of ho owns no less than $2,000 ersonal property. Not one bh of his property is taxable xcept a dog that he. owns. in Nohraska for school tax alone, nearly all kinds of personal prope Hy assessed and where 25 mills on every dd lat of our valuation had to be paid for school tax, to say nothing of the additio #1 $8 poll tax in that state and the high state and county taxes. The fact of the “Tmatter is that a poor man or a man in moderate circumstances in this stae fant “in it” very much when it comes to pay- ing taxes. The men who have money « interest and own fine horses, carriag re: | estate, ete. are the nien who pay the taxes in this state, and it is just und right that they should pay them. ae i Trusts, of course, are bad _enpugh, but ability to kill them. Itis here to prin the news. The Record can play ihe role of a calamity organ if it wants there isn’t & trust in the United that knows anything of the existence the Berlin Record, and what is MO] never will, | Besides that, judging 1 the slush that from time to time appen in’ the Record. concerning trusts, giddy calamity sheet doesn’t kno difference between a trust and a made bootjack. But the Record wasn’t stistied venting its spleen as before stated, in its local columns slaps over in wise: “Tue Sar. which stuffs its adver patrons have too much of a habit of ing to other offices with their job wo Now; THE STAR has done no it can do, at all times, and since Joes here we have sent work to other | made arrangements to doa large amon of job work for a firm in Berlin.
