Henry T TUCKEBxAS The death Of Henry
7. Tuckerman, removes one Of the Oldest aud
most genisl literary men Of the country. He
was born in Boston in 1913, early went abroad,
without graduating, and spent three or four
years there, chiefly in Italy, with the language,
scenery and art Of which he became very well
acquainted His hrtt volume, the Italian
Sketch-Book, was published in 1885 since
then he has published doEenor fifteen volumes
and h.s written frequently fJr the magazines
and newspapers. In 1851 a collection # his
poems, embracing an elaborate metrical essay,
entitled " The Spirit Of Poetry" was published
in Boston Among bis later productions was
comprehensive " Sketch Of American Lilera-
ture." His style was not 80 much characterized
by its force IS by its finish; yet he enjoyed
national and world wide reputation
as writer. He was poet, critic, biogrspher
and etsayist-a man Of versatile genius. Ia
1915 he removed from Boston to New York, and
has since divided his time between that city and
Newport. lie died at New York on Sunday Of
rapid consumption, leaving character which

WarmOth's Slanderers.


From the beginning of the controversy
between the Governor and his opponents
we have resolved to maintain the position
appropriate for an impartial and indie
pendent journal, We have deeply regretted
the division III the Republican ranks, and
we entertain the hope that it may be healed.
We have taken note of every prominent
charge made against the Governor. and
have set about an investigation of the truth
IN each instance, with the intention upper
most that If the testimony warranted it,
we would use our best efforts to discard
him as party leader, or to have him inn
peached as constitutional officer. A pa
tent investigation OF the charges and re-
buttments tented only to show the utter
weakness and folly of any opposition
founded on principle or fair play. Cp to
this date we hold that not one serious
charge has been proven by the press, or by
the chief fuglemen Of the opposition, which
should take from our fearless young Gov
ernor one jot or one title of the respect due
him as an able, patriotic and wise public
servant, or as the Republican executive of
Louisiana. Therefore, we deem 1t para
mount duty to support him as Republican
leader and worthy man.
