LITERARY REVOLUTION CHALLENGE

y The-old line publishers have, naturally,
ISnot been well pleased with the now famous
9enterprise, ttThe Llterery Revolution; and
Gin depreciation of its character have laid spe-
4 cial stress upon the clam that in cheapening
Sbooks so vastly it is against the interests of
y American authors. The Revelation boldly
tIneets this assertion by statements as follows:
Nlst That they are already paying to American
sfauthOrs more money than any other publish
cling house that is less than twenty five years
established. I'd. That American authors
Frarely receive from publishers a copyright
Exceeding 10 per cent. upon the retail price
soi their books actually sold. Sd. That at least
{one-half, and probably more nearly three
sfourths, fthe books published by Americana
eauthOrs have been published at the author >
<expensc, the publishers fusnlshiDg no money!
Sand paving no copyright, but themselves re-
$celvipR large percentage upon sales made
D 4th That they propose hereafter TO pay to-
q American authors tor acceptable manus cripts
Va copyright OF ID per cent, instead OF 10 perl
5eent, and they claim that their low prices
