From the London Daily Telegraph
Palm Sunday at Brentford witnessed a
strange and moving spectacle-a Bishop
seated, not exactly on an ass, but behind
one in a costermonger's donkey cart. The
Bishop of Marlborough was due to hold a
confirmation service at st. Lawrenceis
Church, Brentford, but when his lordship
arrived at Gunnersbury railway station in
time, as he thought, to take a cab to the
place of appointment, he found, 10 his
great chagrin, that vehicles for hire were
conspicuous by their absence. The dis
rance was too great for walking in the few
minutes TO spare, and the Bishop had al
most made up his mind to be late for the
ceremony when suddenly there came on
The scene a humble coster with his "moke"
and cart. the man having apparently been
turning an honest penny by providing the
locality with oranges and apples. The
aproned ecclesiastic explained to the cos
ter in a moment his dilemma and asked for
a lift" The kindly owner of the ass at
once consented, the Bishop scrambled into
the cart. and the donkey entering into
the humor of the situation, used its four
hoofs with such despatch that his lord
ships ride through the principal street of
the town was like a triumphal procession.
Thanks TO the donkey, the Bishop arrived
at st. Lawrences in good time.

seem to ignore that important truth when
it should command their best thoughts and
develop in them some sugges tons worthy
of consideration. The people are far more
interested In the tax returns of counties
than in the issues made by the candidates
for Governor. which deal in glittering gem
eralities, eXtraneous questions broad plat
itudes and the usual .clap-trap of Off re-
seekers.
The question before the people is: Shall
some fifty counties in the state support
the state? Shall the non-tax-paying coun-
ties live upon the tax-paying counties2 Is
there no remedy by which every county
in the state can be made self-supportpg?
In 1879 with 1924, 959,5 4S as>taX returns, the
state tax rate was Sla mills. find IN
1897 a return of $412, 32l, 1863 with a state tax
rate of 5.2l mills
VIII Messrs Gambler. Atkinson and T3er-
ner please talk to the people on that point,
and cease to talk of the qualifications of
each other for Governor. We want tax as
SCISSORS for each county. The Controller
General says in his report of 1897: THE
law of 1890. which ought to equalize taxes,
was only in operation for one year, md
would have added much to our revenue
and equally distributed the burdens of tax
alton had it not been repealed"
1t seems the non-paying tax counties
did not desire fair and equal tax returns.
When demagogues rule the country
mourns, and when demagogues are IN Of
fee the country suffers. What nave
Messrs. Gambler Atkinson and Berner to
say about tax assessors for every county,
so as TO put every county on taX-paying
basis? Speak out, gentlemen, and stop
your personalities. r. NJ. o.

JAPANESE MUSIC.
Its Finest Climaxes Are Crashes of
silence.
From the Washington Star.

silence.
From the Washington Star
To one who never heard it, it is impos-
sible to give "a definite idea of Japanese
music, and to one who hears it for the
first time ii. must either repeI or strangely
attract For Its fantastic intervals and
fractional tones demand a totally new
sense of musical appreciation and call into
being a new set of musical sensations.
Notes and vibrations unknown in our
scale of sound emerge from some myste-
rious center and play upon nerves hitherto
Dormant and Undivided by us, while from
the throat of the singer issue cadences he
longing not to the Western voice, but
awakening in the nearer cognitions more
haunting aud more intangible than those
of forgotten dream. 1t is as if an hith-
erto closed door between sense and spirit
had been suddenly thrown open. One
feels that If ifencarnation be true, one
might through this door alone remember
and reconstruct those vanished eXistences.
Only in the tones of their own Unguisu,
bird which has but three notes, have 1
heard anything 50 occult.
japanese music is like japanese art,
which. with it's .unperceived spirit sense
and symbolism. its strange me thod of
brush handling, might seem merely gro
tesque atlfirst,S but which gradually reveals
to the initiated eye mysteries within mys-
teries of artistic form and perception, I'M
til presently one finds ones self encom-
passed by a new art world where tech
nique is subordinated to feeling and whose
finest effects are obtained through the art
of omission. As, for instance in the
greatest paintings of Fujiyama the sa-
cred mountain itself is discovered TO be
the bare white implanted silk, as If color
and line could be but the boundaries and
outer confines of pure isolated idea. So in
Japanese music, Its methods are not ours.
Its climaxes come in crashes of silence,
in sustained and soundless pause, the
note subordinated to a silent something,
an inner sense, which, while restraining
or even depressing sound, is the very &C.
stacy of musical sensation.
In vain we attempted to analyze this sub
tie effect to reduce it to the terms of our
musical consciousness. 1t defied and elud-
ed us as spirit must always defy and de-
lude sense. And we perforce contented
ourselves with following the strange,
rounded. isolated notes, sustaining our
selves breathiessly on its wonderful
pauses, and Yielding 10 the Irregular ca
denced charm of the singer, whose face,
at first so unremarkable, seemed to grow
of a shining effulgence as she thus inter-
preted to us an unknown world.

Editor Morning News; The great ques-

receive the attention of Messrs. Gambler.
Atkinson and Berner, is ignored by them
as too dangerous for them to toucn A
statesman is man who fears no aues-
ton, who would enlighten the people ard
suggest ideas or remedies for any evil com
pialned of. The fact that there are some
ninety-one counties in the state, as you
say, which draw out more from the treas
ury than they pay in, is one of the seri-
