THE GREAT SONG TOWN.
PHILADELPHIA Record.

Philadelphia prints more than one
quarter OF all the music IN the United
States, and the total amount of 1t is six
times as great as II was Is years ago.
But, while Europe shows no such IN
crease as that, this comtry's total OUT
put Is still less than that OF Leipsic,
Germany, and less than that OF several
other European cities. In this city the
amount OF instrumental music printed

not been so great as that In other lines.

ATTEND MEETINGS, THEN VOTE

Attention is called to tho non-par-
tisan conventions to be held in the var
ious municipal precincts, for the pur-
pose OF nominating candidates for the
Board OF Education. The school cleo
ton is important to the citizens, since
the excellent results achieved In the
educational line during many years of
faithful labor and sacrifice can be de-
stroyed in a short time by Incompe-
tence, or dishonesty. An effort Is being
made TO carry bitter strife and conten-
ton into the schools by making the
Board an anti" Mormon" institution.
II that attempt Is successful. the next
step will be to give employment IN the
schools only to those who can claim re-
ward for services already rendered the
American cause, which Is essentially
un-Amercan; or who will promise fu-
ture services TO the party of false pre-
lenses. II the taxpayers and voters
desire 10 prevent this menace 10 the
schools they must take an interest In
the mass meetings called for the pur-
pose OF considering the nomination OF
candidates, They must select the best
men, or women, available, and then
come out and vote for them. The great
question Is whether the money Of the
people, intended for ihe education of the
children, IL to be used honestly for that
purpose. or be paid out as tips for more
or. less dshonorable work In the inter-
est OF crafty politicians
The charge has been made repeated
ly by the organ Of malice, that the
movement for non-partisan schools Is
directed In the interest OF Church die
tstion. That organ has no other re-
course than dismal howl about
something that does not exist In real
fly. whenever II deems 1t necessary to
drive Its servie followers IN any given
direction. 1t has no principles to de-
fend SO II repeats ad inflnitum its
nursery tales about ''herarchs' and
Church dictation." Tha time the
schools are said 10 be the object Of
such dlctaton. The lie was given 10
this charge at the first mass meeting
held, in the Fifth precinct. where
Judge Henderson was unanimously re-
nominated, IN spite of the fact that
he had publicly declared himself In
sympathy with the so-called "Ameri-
cam party. II that does not prove
the utter falsity as well as malice OF the
charge Of intended Church dictation IN
the school elections. then facts prove
nothing.

THE GREAT PYRAMID.

A contributor to the current number
OF Moody's magazine IS OF the opinion
that the reason for the existence Of the
pyramids Of Egypt has az last been
found. lie says some OF the ancient
Egyptian rulers accumulated so large
fortunes and so rapidly that they were
unable to spend even a small part OF
them. They We're therefore, placed
under the necessity OF inyenting some-
thing on which to spend money, to es-
cape the disgrace OF dying rich, to use
modern phrase. Opportunities for
expenditures we're not so plentiful as
they are at present. The multi-mlllon.
aires could not found libraries. since
the general public were unable to read
The luxuries OF life We're fewer, and
where a great number OF the population
consisted OF slaves cared for by their
masters. there was not such a demand
on charities as there Is In our age.
Under the circumstances, we are in
formed, the ancient Egyptians took
TO building pyramids The great cap
tain Of industry OF that age devised
the pyramid as an everlasting monu-
ment to his greatness The labor thus
spent was IN no sense reproductive,
and so he had found a gulf IN which
to throw the surplus OF his enormous
wealth. that had become an intolerable
burden.
We confess that this theory appears
poor indeed, when compared to another
that sees in the Great Pyramid Of
Egypt a structure reared mlllenniums
ago, according to a divine plan and by
divine instruction, to be a monument
for all ages and witness to all gener-
atlons OF the existence OF a living God.

LOOKING TOWARD THE FUTURE

A leading anti-"Mormon' sheet
gives space and editorial endorse
ment 20 a literary effort, the pur-
pose Of which is to make II appear
that. 1t is not absurd to say that
the Mormon chiefs will attempt to
re-establlsh polygamy"
1t, will be observed that the author
Of that effort sounds note somewhat
different from the common alarm sig
nal with which the general public
has become familiar Time and again
writer's and orators have tried to make
Il appear that polygamy has already
been established by the Authorities
Of the Church. On innumerable oc-
casons the world has been Informed,
with more or less dramatic emphasis
and accompanying blasts OF oratory,
that certain so-called pledges and
promises made by the Mormon
Church were kept sacred only few
years and were then broken; and
that the present ant-"Mormon" cruz
SADIE was commenced by certain IN
dlWduals Of highly moral character.
because 1t had become dreadfuly ap-
parent that polygamy was on the in
crease, that "Mormonism" was spread
ing In all directions and had become a
menace TO the American home. The
re-establishment of polygamy was

anti Mormon" discussion and tolls
the world, by indlreciion. that this is
nil wrong, Polygamy has not been re-
established, but. 'it docs not seem
absurd TO say that the Mormon
chiefs will attempt to re-establish
polygamy" some time In the future.
il would seem extremely absurd to
say that, II The institution had al
ready been re-established. The writer
quoted has been about as successful
in his effort as was the somewhat SIM
ple-minded gentleman who sawed off

comfortably seated.
II must be admitted, that Il Is safer
TO make a representation than to
utter an assertion referring to the

the assertion. II Is safer to predict
calamity than to say that it has al.

knows It has not Fake astrologers
and soorhsayers Of all kinds know
this, and therefore connnc their false
predictions TO the domain Of future
possibilities They feel that their rep.

they speak only OF the future. In the
