V rf2lSa2S wt uil THAT BAND CONTEST. To the public. The Willamette Val ley Band, of Tangent, ir justice to thein Eolvee, and that the public may le put in possession of the tacts, in order to a correct judgment of the ismicH involved, kindly ask the publication of the follow ing,: The managers of the 4th of July exer cises at Albany (who were all citizens of Albany) among many other features of the day, resolved to have a band contest, between the bands of the county, and accordingly eent out announcements and invitations. The above named band ac cepted the invitation, and eutered the "contest" in good faith. Besides our band, the Mechanics Band, of Albany, i and the Ladies Banl, of Corvallis, were contestant". The mu.-io was rendered, each liand playing two pieces. The grades played were : Albany, 2" ; Ladies, 2 ; Tangent, 5. As is generally known the first nward was to thj Albany band, as we believe unjustly t'"r the following reasons: 1 . We proposed and insisted that the contest should be on mn. lc never played by eittierot ine bands, v j 2. 1'ointa upon wtiica iutlghienl was rendered was number of instruments, we only having nix mouth pieces and Al bany twelve; making skill and execution upon the number of instruments and not on musical knowledge, tneonly true and just basis of judgment. 3. When we took exceptions to the verdict the Rer. Mr. Poling declared that there was not a band in the Wil lamette valley that could da justice to the &th grade 01 music; that there was not a band in Albany, nor in Linn coun ty that could do justice to this grade. " In addition to the above, since the 4th, we had inserted in the IUilt Dkmockat a "challenge" to a public contest on th basis of "plaving each others music," which they failed to accept ; notwith standing it was annourced in the Demo crat that our challenge would be con sidered in their regular meeting, and notwithstanding also, it was published iu th paper, that while there had Iwn no official action bv the band, individuals of the band had said Kiev were wil.in to accept the challenge, and wished ti.e sum was $00 instead of l-'iO. W hat we desire as a band 11 recogni tion of merit ; this and nothing more- A public contest Willi decision according to "merit" is. or shonld be. a satisfactorv wav of eettlins such a matter. As the case now stands the decision was one way and merit the othfr w ar. The fail ure of the Mechanics Band, of Albany, to accept our challenge is certain! v nrool of it, especially when we add this fact to their refusal at first to play at eight . We dont desire nor seek a quarrel, rather we desire and ak for simple jus tice, only this. Signed H lU-AVirrrK alley Bano, of Tangent, PerO. M. McFarUnd.
