satisfaction, All l shall die now"
He died the same morning near mid

It 10 a curious fact that no great ma

among a people living under repub-
lican form of government. The Swiss
are, perhaps, the oldest example Of
people living permanently under that
regime, and there has never been
Swiss composer Of any note or of even
moderate ability. Against this 1t may
be urged that the American democ-
racy is unquestionably sui generis;
that nothing like 1t has ever existed
before and that for this reason, being
In a position to make precedent Tor
ourselves we need not necessarily con-
slider democracy per Sc as inimical TO
musical development. On the con-
trary, the very variety Of the elements
which are now forming the American
nation would argue In favor OF the
possibility of the foundation of ma
tionaI school Of music. which, In unit
Ing the characteristics of many peo-
pies, might in time develop into some
thing broader and stronger, fresher.
