And therefore, IL Is necessary that all
who are interested In the future musical
development OF Omaha unsteady, should
take an interest In the question OF the
musical education OF the rising generation.
We have been entirely too regardless OF
the tremendous growth OF our public school
system. and Of the fact that the pupils in
the public schools today. are going to be
arrayed IN the cause OF good music, in a
few years, or else arrayed with forces
which are either indifferent to, OF antagon-
istie 70. the boon Of musical growth.
In view OF the approaching visit of the
Cincinnati symphony Orchestra which will
be heard on Tuesday az the Brandeis the
ater, the following item will prove inter
ssting:
Cincinnati has long been recognized as
one OF the great eenters OF musical inter.
ests in the United States, and has attracted
many fine musicians Of the old world who
have settled IN Cincinnati and made IL their
home. From the ranks OF these musicians
a Symphony Orchestra was formed in
1872 called the Philharmonic the pioneer
symphony orchestra IN the west Concerts
were given at intervals by this and other
orchestras for years, until the desire for a
permanent orchestra eliminated in 1898. in
the organization Of the Cincinnati OrChes-
ira Association company under whose
eerts are given. The organization Is a
stock company, governed by a board OF fiji
teen women. Art is never self-supporting,
and Il Is only through the generosity Of
public-spiTited men and women that the
association is able TO maintain the or
chestra.
Mr.. Frank Van der Stucken was called
nom New York to become the conductor,
and the first series OF symphony concerts
was given In 1854. Each successive year
under the baton OF this distinguished con-
ductor witnessed a greater perfection In
the work OF the orchestra.
In 1901 Mr. Van der Stucken resigned
and for two years Cincinnati was without
an orchestra OF her own In 1899 Mr.. StO-
kovsh was asked 10 take charge OF the
re-orEnnized orchestra, and engaging as
many men OF the old orchestra Il was
possiole 10 find, he built around this nu-

Asst Sunday, In this column,
there was n short article on
the attitude OF the school sys-
tenn towards music. and the
I@la~aih,A attitude OF musicians towards
- the public schools. Some sug-
gestions were thrown out in the most
general way az 10 the further recognition
Of the music-student in the public school,
and the hope was advanced that in the
near future some means might be de.
veloped whereby the student Of music
should receive credit marks for conscien-
tious work done with outside teachers,
whose addition to the regular musical de.
partment Of the schools would be too ex,
pensive a proposition to consider even for
q moment.
Since that time one parent has called
up" the writer 90 thank him for the
propagation of the idea, citing as an ex,
ample her own daughter as a case in
point, a young woman who is a pupil OF
a prominent piano teacher, and who really
ought 20 be enabled 20 drop some less at
tractive study. and devote her attention
for the same time to a branch in which
she has special aptitude, for which the
good God has endowed her with talent
and in which her teacher comedies her
distinct qualifications.
This Is very encouraging. and II more
people will now speak up and strengthen
the hands OF those who are interested in
the problem Of musical development of the
children in the schools the people who
administer schools and their affairs will
be given something TO work on. As stated
last Sunday, the music OF the public
schools and the musical education OF
those attending the public schools are sub
jects which are very closely connected with
the plans and prospects entertained by
DIR. Davidson, our superintendent of
schools, in his general scheme OF true
education. DR.. Davidson has the entire
confidence Of the community and his
words have weight and when he says that
he is very much interested in doing some
thing for the cause Of musical recognition
he means II, and he will do whatever Il
is possible for him TO do. Let us see to
st, whoever we are. that he be given some
encouragement.

republican conventions, of whom Iowa
was one, appropriated one-half million
dollars to establish the tariff board
that shall look into the matter and
make report. The board has been es-
ia blished. Nothing partisan about the
board, three nominal republicans and
two nominal democrats. In Iowa you
understand what nominal republi-
can is and what nominal democrat
is. (Laughter) Many of these political
democrats are nominal. But these
gentlemen are not in politics. Two OF
them are professors of political econ
omy, one the editor of the Breeders
Gazette, f1ourishing farm magazine,
|another former democratic member
of congress, a very able and impartial
man; another who was in charge of
the customs and administration OF;
the tariff act for four years. These ac-
count for our impartial body. The
board was directed to make report on
the sale and manufacture of wooden
goods on December LIST. The report
will be made and expect to recon-
mend to congress reduction of the

presented.

prepared it first put agricultural i'm
plements on the free list. They are
on the free list. The provision of the
law is that agricultural implements
may come in free from other cOun-
tries where our agricultural imple-
ments enter free. The only country
manufacturing agricultural implements
to large extent is England, and Eng
land now has the right to enter ag-
ricultural implements free. The fact
is that she does not sell to exceed Sat-
600 worth of agricultural implements
in this country, and the reason is that
agricultural implements are cheaper
here than elsewhere in the world. But
in this clause was a proposition that
all other articles used on the farm
should come in free. That included
cutlery and many other things which
are used, not only on the farm, but
in many other places, and it meant
the breaking down of the entire metal
schedule. If you are going to reduce
a schedule, reduce it as a schedule
and not in spots so as to be unjust

it was so hastily drawn that the ex-

stead of reducing the schedule Is per

SO to 100 per cent. The senator, who
was interested in this, wanted it for
the purpose of reaching the chemicals
