TOPICS OF THE DAY OF REST
Dundee Presbyterians Are Excavating
for New Building.
MORE FUNDS ARE YET NEEDED
Money H. Beins Donated by People OF
Various Denominations who re-
aide in the Beautiful
suburb.

The Dundee Presbyterian people have
been eNcavating this week for their new
building. The plans and specifications are
ready TO place in the hands OF bidders.
While the plan is to utilize the frame
work Of the old building, the result will be
practically a new building. 1t is to be Of
brick veneer with basement for Sunday
school. The only thing that now delays the
work is the securing of another 1900 which
it is hoped by the trustees will be obtained
the coming week. This much is needed for
meeting the conditions under which the
beginning must be made. The generous sup
port thus far gives the trustees good hope
that the money will be given in a few days.
Those who have seen the plans are pleased
with the beauty and convenience Of the
proposed structure. The architect is es-
p~ecielly happy in the plans for seating the
main auditorium and in conveniences in
the basement for Sunday school and social
purposes. The new building will be a mat
ter Of pride on the part OF all residents
of Dundee. The project has been supported
without respect to church affiliations.

MUSIC.
THE FLONZALEY QUARTET.

The Flonzaley Quartet gave new evidence last
night at Mendelssohn Hall OF the beneficial effects
following Its entry into the field OF public per-
formance under the ordinary concert conditions
good sized audience that listened to the organ
zation last evening consisted not of invited guests
hrt Of men and women whose faith in the quality
of the promised music testified TO by their pur-
chase of tickets. That faith was rewarded oy
pIavtug that was admirable in many respects. The
four Instruments produced volume of tone that
was delicately balanced and delightfully."- elastic
within the limits of what IN music corresponds TO
the genre style in the graphic or plastic arts. If
the epic sweep and the note of classic austerty lie
outside their immediate domain the region in which
they excel is large enough to afford variety and
scope for first rate talents. Such alertness and
yvacity as Mr Adofo Betti and his colleagues i'm
parted to the Tschaikowsky E fiat major quartet
written in memory OF Ferdinand Laub, brought out
the best of it's peculiar charm except in the an
dante funebre which lacked the tragic throb that
the Russian composer wrote into the despite
the lovely euphony with which 1t was played. For
such music as the Haydn quartet in ID major, Opus
7s No s. which brought the programme 10 a
gracious conclusion, the FTonzaey instrumentalsts
have many times proved themselves excellently
adapted.
The middle number of last evenings list was
Bach's sonata in G. major for two vions and
clavecin. played by Messrs. Betd and Pochon and
by Mr.. Arthur Whiting, who substituted for the
clavecin harpsichord- The combination of tone in
this music proved sngularly fascinating to the
ear. There could have been better demonstra-
tion of the kinshp between the violin and the pre-
cursor of the panoforte than was here given: the
tnoa1 contrast seemed rather that between two re-
lated dialects than between two wholly different
languages which is certainly the effect of the violin
and the modern pianoforte when heard together
All three participants in this sonata deserved and
received the enthusiastic tribute of their hearers.
New-York tribune., 1908-03-18

the voters Of that state embodying perpetual
grandfather clause
II is we'll TO insist as Mr.. Taft does. that such
device is violativc Of the provisions or the
Fifteenth Amendment. and that the states which
have not the political and moral courage to i'm
pose tests bearing equally on all citizens. with
ont regard TO race color or previous condition OF
seryitude will have TO reckon eventually with
the veto of the United States Supreme Court
and the punitive power of Congress. No doubt
i'm time most of the Southern states will sum-
mon UP enough of the spirit of equity to require
their ignorant and otherwise ineligible white
voters TO suffer the same degree of disfranchlSe-
ment as the colored iliterates and ineligibles.
That is small sacrifice to demand for the good
of the community, and 1t would relieve the state
making il from the reproach of attempting TO
subvert the guarantees of the federal Constitu-
ton. The Constitution remains and must event
ually be construed SO as TO inval1date Illegal
determinations and the negroes OF the South
can take comfort from the fact that their race
will in the end be subjected to the same suffrage
tests as the white race, and to no others Said
the Secretary of War Monday evening
The Fifteenth Amendment, while in the past
il NAV not have accomplished all that Its authors
intended IL should. has in il this inestimable
benefit to the negro race that it fixes a re
striction upon state electoral laws that may be
temporarily violated but can never be removed
However the opponent of equal political rights
TO the negro may turn and twist whatever de-
vices he may invent to give speciouS appear
ance of legality to laws intended to exclude the
negro because of his color, he VIII find
his purpose thwarted by the broad and generous
scope of the language of the amendment
That is the end toward which both North and
South are gradually moving, and that end once
accomplished, the present annoying suffrage is
sue in the South will gradually disappear.

count There need be no clash between them
A bill has been introduced at Trenton by Sen
ator Frelinghuysen which would prooabiy
conserve the legitimate interests Of all con-
cerned It would make the first eight months
of the year, from January 1 to September 1,
a closed season for all game, leaving only the
last four months of the year open for gunners
That would give the thorough protection
which is SO much needed during the breeding
season. while it would permit hunting at the
very time when game is in the best condition
Some opposition is manifested to the bill by
pot hunters who want the privilege OF shoot
ing for market whenever there IS anything 10
shoot, and who find much profit in slaughter
Ing birds during the mating season W
course such slaughter Is ruinous. 1t has al
ready resulted in pretty nearly e1terminating
some of the finest varieties Of Wild duck IL
should certainly be prohibited. as Senator Ere
linghuysen aims to do. Indeed. the lasting IN
terests Of all legitimate hunters would doubt
less be promoted by the prohibition, as Presi-
dent Roosevelt well suggests, OF all spring ana
summer shooting.

NEW JERSEY GAME LAWS.

The discovery and seizure Of vast numbers
of game birds in storage In Jersey City, which
are said to have been unlawfully taken, will
doubtless strengthen the demand for revision
OF the game laws Of that state. The ac-
tive interest which has been expressed by
President Roosevelt and ex-Presdent Cleve-
lane is justifiable and praiseworthy. 1t was
Iescarbot, we believe, who reckoned game
laws TO be the Oldest and most sacred in the
world They were derived, he said, from the
authority given to Noah over all beasts and
fowls and under this authority the law OF
the chase formed, the most noble of all
1.-The laws which prevail among men, since God
Himself was Its author We need not 90
quite far that to demonstrate the decided
desirability, on various worthy grounds Of strict
regulation Of the taking of game especially in
state like New Jersey, which affords unsur-
passed sport for the hunter and which, because
Of that fact and because of its unique proximity
TO great centres of population, is in greatest
danger Of having It's wild life exterminated.
This latter point is probably the most to be
considered. New Jersey has long been the happy
hunting ground of mutitudes of sportsmen-and
DOT hunters, too-from New York and Phiadel-
pha, there being no other comparable region so
accessible TO them and there is reason to suspect
that It's game laws have more than once been
framed - meet their wishes. Now, there are
many true spGrtsnlea and intelligent economists
IN these cities who wish to see the game
properly protected, the former in order that
ther sport may be perpetuated aud the lat
ter In order that the supply OF marketable
fauna may be cultivated and maintained. But
there are also many, as there are in New Jer-
sey itself, who entirely selfish as sports
men and sordid as pot hunters, and who would
not hesitate to exterininate all the wild life
of the state in single season, so long
they themselves could have the sport or the
profit Of doing il. These gentry have already
wrought great havoc, and some existing pro-
visions Of the game laws, whether Intentionally
or not, are framed SO as to facilitate their un-
worthy aims.
The first consideration doubtless is the well
fare of the people Of New Jersey itself,
whether they shoot for sport or for profit. After
that the desires Of legitimate sportsmen from
the neighboring cities may be taken into &C.

lfR- TAET N RROOkLY w.

Secretary Taft's speech in Brooklyn on Mon
day evening. in far as il touched on the polit-
ical phase of the race problem in the South, fol-
lowed the general lines of his address last sum
mer at Lexington. Ky. The Secretary of War
is well equipped 10 consider the Southern suf-
frage problem dispassionately- He has studied
both sides OF the controversy BY force of fam
lily ties and early education he was led TO sym
patbize intensely with the efforts Of the federal
government. directly after the war and up 10
1877, to compel the South to recognize the negro
as a constitutlonally qualified voter Later, as
a federal judge exercising jurisdiction in two
Southern states he became familiar with the
South's view of the issue and its determination
TO avoid what il considered the unalloyed evils
of negro suffrage. ~ 4
Ye think that the Secretary of War expresses
the sentiment Of most NorthernerS inclined 10
temper abstract theory with practical justice
when he says that il is better not to emphasize
TOO much the unhappy conflicts Of the past, but
TO tura rather with h0pefulneSs TO the fairer
prospects of the future. Undoubtedly unlimited
negro suffrage, as practised in reconstruction
days, was disastrous in its results, and the re-
acticn against negro control was equally denor-
aiiZng. involving, il did violence oppression
and fragrant disregard of law and order. A more
stable equilibrium has now been established
and tie North properly aid and encourage
the South IN undoing the wrongs and eXcesses
both OF reconstruction and OF the notification Of
reconstruction 1t is in this spirit that Mr.
Taft counsels an acceptance Of all measures
which iegitimately limit suffrage in the South.
The franchise is not right but privilege and
sny state is justified in attempting TO improve
the quality Of its electorate by imposing quail
fcations based on property, intelligence or any
other test applicable equally TO all its citizens.
Many Southern states have dislngenuously
erected a test. ike that Of ancestry which IS
not of such equal application and which dis
eriininates against the negro voter. In some
cases that test VAS only temporary in character
snd is now inyalidated. In others it persists,

PETTY POWERS.

Recent unrest In Persia friction between Rus
sia and Turkey and war clouds in the Balkans
have been calling back the great European
powers to the yeXed question of managing their
weak sisters. In the midst Of all the hustle at
the Foreign offices and War departments in
the Old World Americans have been smiling
complacenly at their own splendid isolation
which delivers them from this perpetual, OBJ

In the Middle West q small state has Just been
