Sacred Harp Clans Open Rival Conventions

Rival conventions of sweet singers of
the S<*. i e.j Harp aie in progress in At

Sun lay. It is yvell that they are two
miles apart, or the harmony might be
drowned in discord, for the adherents
of the warring factions tire not fond pf
each other.

Wiiliam Smith ihVrnted the "four

the far-famed Sacred Harp song book.
It took on the proportions of teal civil
"ar a yea: or- two ago, when Joe S.

song book m competition with the book
published by J. I. White; of Atlanta,

Now. each faction contends it is the

attacked r^onabu l.aFollettt. of Wis
consin. for failing to ally himself with
the Progressive -'party. Lalf'ollette has
bitterly opposed ROoS'-vc.lt in th* North
west. Ii was considered significant that
the attack was uttered in the stale
which the Wisconsin man had carried
at th* presidential primaries.
"I want to give the people of North
Dakota a word of war ning,” cried .the
colonel. ''Look out for the man that
is going about attacking the Progres

The i x-president went on to-speak of
the records of Wilson aritl Marshall as

of Governor Johnson.

In his invation of North Dakcfta
Colonel Roosevelt ar tacked President
Taft's reciprocity' theory. Talking to
tlie fanners, tile ex-pi. .-ii.bnt declared
that while he favoffd e. iprocity. hr

sale is -aid to be the underly ing rea
son for the rivalry between the White
and Janies armies.
The Sacred Harp singers, including
all factions, have their own peculiar
style of writing music and of -singing
it. They retain the four parts, but in
stead of soprano, the htgh female voice
is known as treble and pronounced
“tiibble.” The notes are only four in
number, are indicated by peculiar
shapes as well as by their position on
the staff, and are called “Mi. Fa. So!
and La." When a hymn is announced,
the congregation first sings lire note*,
calling them by name, and after- a
stanza of this the words are sung. The
Sacred Harpists have no objection to
instrumental musk-, and an organ is
sometimes used, though musicians
trained in the more accepted school of
music find difficulty in playing from
the Sa* red Har p hymnals.
There was music resounding from
both churches today when the rival
conventions were under way. The
strains oS “Ninety-Fifth." "Liverpool”
and "Talbotton," sung by lusty' voices,
could be heard a block away. There
was an occasional prayer-, but no
preaching. For the Sacred Harpists
came to -ing. eat a basket dinner, and
then sing again. They will continue
for three days, and before they end
their meeting- will have gone clear
through the rival song books and back
again.

contributed more to its support than
required by court.
