grinding songs and the songs of inspiration and
encouragement Intended to be sung to the war
riors setting out for battle.
1t is usually difficult for listener of another
race to catch an Indian song owing to the con-
iicting noise DUE in great part to the beating
of the drums There is usually difference IN
time, the drum beats being designed to govern
bodily movements and mark the steps OF the
ceremonial dancers, whereas the song voices the
emotion Of the appeal. The drums may be beaten
in "a time and the song be in "a time or the
beat be in 5-8 time against melody in "a time,
the entire song may be sung to rapid remolo
beating of the drum. The officials who have been
making study of Indian music are enthusiastic
over its possibilities They declare that not only
does the field afford rich opportunities for the
study of the growth of musical form, but the
Indian songs themselves offer to the present-day
composer a wealth of melodic and rhythmic move
ments constituting source Of inspir alton equal
to that which has been supplied by the folk songs
of Europe and vastly more serviceable in the
development of distinctive American school"
of music.

these primitive songs which have
seldom been written but have simply been hand
ed down from one generation to another con-
stitute an invaluable link with the past.
In the case of our Indians however, in great
er degree perhaps than with any other prim-
tive people, is there need for quick work If the
old songs and ancient music is to be chronicled
for the benefit of future generations who will
know the Indian only from books and pictures.

pean nations, which have been brought to the

THE PRESIDENTIAL TOUR

Mr.. Taft's reception in Michigan, a
state wavering on the border of in
surgency, must have been very graft
flying to the president. To the i'm
mense audiences which gathered ev-
erywhere to hear him, he discussed
many topics of current interest and
his remarks evidently had a telling eff
feet on his hearers.
In one of his speeches the president
took occasion to defend the Sherman
antitrust law and declared that no
amendment was needed, as it was at
present adequate to deal with the pre-
datory trusts. He challenged Mr..
Bryan and his other critics to point
out a single trust that did not come
within the purview of the law and the
rule of reason recently laid down by
the Supreme Court of the United
States.
Being himself a great lawyer, adj
mittedly qualified to serve as Chief
Justice Of the highest tribunal of the
land, Mr.. Taft's opinions on avs will
carry greater weight with the people
than those of third-rate lawyers. like
Mr.. Bryan.
It is probable that before the presi-
dent returns to Washington next
month the people of the country will
have q better understanding of the
workings of his administration and
that insurgency will have well-nigh
disappeared from the land.

Chicago, Jan. 27.-Attorney OBrien,
representing the Waterloo, Iowa. base

superior court today to press the
charge Of contempt against President
Tearney and Attorney Litzlnger. of the

ousting the Waterloo team from the
league last night. Gridley postponed
the hearing until later in the day.
According to O'Brien, the defendants
violated the injunction secured by Wa

is alleged to have shown contempt
when he ruled. as chairman. that Kin

Fort Dodge. Jan. 2S.-Yesterday af-
ternoon there was filed a second suit
for separate maintenance instituted by
Nellie 8. Coffin against her husband.
L. s. Coffin. The hearing Is set for
1880 p. m., Feb. 3.
The suit Is similar in ITS points. to
the former one dropped some time last
spring. except the plaintiff alleges the
defendant to the former suit has made
no contribution toward her support. as
she alleges he agreed to do when she
withdrew the former suit.
The hearing Feb. 3. will be for
securing temporary support until the
case can be tried.
The original separate maintenance
suit was instituted in 1909. and was
postponed several times until finally
arrangements were perfected whereby
Mrs Coffin withdrew her suit in the
late spring or early summer of 1910. 1t
is since then that the plaintiff claims
she has received no support from her
husband.

Cummins contended that the votes Of

these should be deducted from Lori
