America, Music and Rag Time.

A gentleman, who confesses himself
not sufficiently informed to discuss the
subject effectively, writes to say that he
has been engaged in a brief but pointed
controversy with an English friend on
the matter Of musical taste and produc-
tivity in the United States. The gist Of
the Briton's assertions was that Amer
leans know nothing about music" and
that they compose nothing but rag time
and care for nothing esq. Whereupon
our correspondent beseeches US to tell
him whether America really is guilty
of being the inventor Of rag time and
whether it is actually true that we have
no composers Of music Of the better
sort.
Our correspondent confesses his lack
of musical knowledge, and therefore we
shall not call him to account for his too
ready admission that in opera the old
country is far superior to ours. We I'M
derstand him to mean England. Has he
never heard of SILAs G. PRATTs AZe-
nobia," nor JOHN X. PAINE's "Azara"?
Not Sir ARTHUR SULLIvAN's "Ivanhoe
nor GoRING THoMAss ~Esmeralda" out
did either of these Did he never hear
of "The Scarlet Letter" by WALTER
DAMRoscH? This opera was actually
performed and listened to-
But, as our correspondent truthfully
says, this is a young country. AT the
age of the old world, he continues, it
may prove to be az musical" 1t may.
When the republic Of the United States
has existed as many centuries as the
kingdom of England, it may produce
composers as learned as Sir C. H. H
PARRY or Sir FREDERICK BRIDGE, who
can discourse most profoundly Of the
principles Of music through tho four
movements Of symphony or the several
parts OF a festival oratorio, made fol
the Birmingham or Leeds market.

One on the Quarter.

DR.. LOUIS HAUPT, Commissioner Of
the Board Of Education, physician and
computer, has made some calculations
which ought to calm the perturbed spirits
that have been worrying about race
suicide
DR.. HAUPT's task was to find how
many new school buildings will be needed
in Greater New York in any given year
in the future. Naturally he had to find
first how many possible school children
are produced in Greater New York, ano
make it greater every year.
His figures are as convincing az graft
flying He estimates that in 1897 baby
was born in Greater New York every
thirty minutes; in 1902, every sixteen
or seventeen minutes; in 1902, every
fifteen minutes.
Four babies an hour; 90 day; 672 g
week. Good and reassuring figures
and better remain behind. So far az
Greater New York is concerned, race
suicide, that great problem Of modern
craftsmanship, may be regarded IL
solved; and grown-up questions may
take its place.

He Speaks Good Bryanese.

The Hon. JOHN H. CLARKE, Tom JOHN
SONS candidate for Mr.. HANNA's seat
in the Senate, is worthy of his patron.
From the cloudy heights of his own
virtue he watts this compliment to the
body into which he seeks admission for
its improvement:
There are more than enough men in the Senate
Of the United States who are suspected. justly
or un1ustly. OF having obtained their positions
by questionable methods and means. Not under
any circumstances will permit myself to be added
10 that number. believe am OF firm enough
nbre to refuse even certificate OF election. were II
rendered me, II tainted with suspicion Of its having
been obtained by Improper use OF money"
Mr.. CLARKE is a lawyer. How much
weight has he been in the habit Of giving
to suspicion?
1t is a fashion of cheap demagogues
to assail the United States Senate, to
make irresponsible accusations against
it and it's members, to pretend that it
is "a club of millionaires."
In character, intellectual resources
and various capacity for the discussion
aud discharge of the public business,
the Senate is unexcelled by any parlia-
mentary body in the world. In ability
and in manners and habits it Is far SUI
pefior to-day to the Senates so extolled
by the praisers of past times, Senates
remembered for three or four Industrious
members, but as far behind the present
Senate in the average Of their knowledge
and their talents as in public deoorum
and in dscency Of private life.
1t is natural that the political ward
Of TOM JOHNSON should have nervous
spasms over the plutocratic depravity
Of the Senate. Tom JOHNSON made no
mistake in selecting Mr.. CLARKE. Mr.
-RRYAN made 10 mistake in accepting
him. He speaks good Bryanese.

England; yet there arc Bishops and
parish clsrgymen In that Church sur
rounded with every luxury and living
in princely state. In this country similar
disparities OF material condition may be
observed among the Christian clergy,
but those who are clothed in fine linen,
we'll housed and fed" are only the very
few, the great mass are living on incomes
not greater and often less than the aver
age Of the families OF the country who
earn their living by their daily labor.
Complaint of the richer conditions OF
the few OF the clergy is as applicable to
the grandeur OF temples Of Christian
worship; but in neither case is the state
or the magnificence representative OF
the importance Of an individual or OF .
desire for mere earthly display as an end,
but Of the dignity Of an office and the ex-
altation of q use. Is it all theatrical?
But is it not largely through the sense
that religion must always make its ap-
peal to the imaginations OF men? The
great cathedrals of the world typify In
their grandeur and their artistic proper
tons and adornment the sublimity Of the
religious idea; yet the vast majority OF
churches are humble structures and
their ministers are compelled to fru-
gality and self-denial by narrow stipends
Of uncertain or irregular payment.
The assertion Of our correspondent
that "avarice, bigotry, discourtesy,
laziness and indifference are largely the
characteristics Of the clergy to-day is
unsupported by the facts Of the actual
situation. It is rather the other way.
The largely" can truthfully be used only
concerning those whose characteristics
are the very opposite. No such indict-
ment against the clergy as a whole or OF
any very great part of them will stand.
Their religious views may be open to
attack, infidelity may even contend that
their very profession is based on super
stition and a dognatic authority which
is mere assumption; but the character
of the Christian ministry as body is
unassailable and deserves only respect.
You may call them mistaken; if you will,
but that they are impelled by religious
sense of duty and that they exemplify
the moral purity Of their religion in
their lives, 80 far as it is possible for hui
man weakness to emplify it. is unques-
tionable even by infidel consciousness.
Take away clerical example from society
and the void would be great and dismal
