BOOK NOTICES.

To have achieved marked business
| success III any honorable business pur-
| suit, IS a cause for cOugratulatiOn; but
| to have done this in the single line of
publishing good literature, il especially
deserving of favorable notice. As the
result of patient, persistent adherence
| TO a worthy policy, success of the char
acter indicated has been won by the
house Of D. LOthTOp 81 Co., which from
modest beginnings has grown to become
one of the most important publishing
houses III the United States. The mag
nitude of their undertakings is suggest
ed by the fact that more than $4,000
was expended upon the illustrations of
their holiday books for the present sea-
son. Our readers will be interested in
the following notes relating to some Of
their recent publications, culied from
the American Bookseller, and other
sources.
Life of Washington" by E. f. Brown.
author of Life of James A. Garfield, Life
of Oliver Wendell Holmes, etc. This il
far more than compilation from pre-
ViOus works. Beside containing much
new matter, essential facts are present
ed in new lights, and valuable informa-
tiOn is given in a terse and graphic
style. 1t is model of biographical wri-
ting; IL mo-, illustrated, 81 so.
SELF Giving by VIM. F. Bainbridge,
under the veil Of fiction, presents chan
ters in the real life of some of the most
h0nOred of our American missionaries.
Ihe story Is as interesting as any TO-
nance, and will deserve the attention
it is sure TO receive; 12mO., $3.50.
Child Lore: its Classics, Traditions
and Jingles," by Clara DOty Bates, will
prove mine of treasures to the boys
and girls fortunate enough to possess it.
German, Italian, Morse, as we'll as Eng
glish folklore have furnished its mate
ria /, and choice illustrations by the best
artists, give it added value; 4tO., ele-
gantly bound, S4.
Field, Wood and Meadow Rambles:
and Wild Flowers, and Where they
Crow" by Amanda B. Harris, are two
books whose pages are full of interest,
and whose illustrations are admirable
in design and execution. Mothers, in
reading them TO or with their little ones
will repeat the unallOyed happiness
which came to them in the midst of |
held and woodland flowers, in days that |
will not return. "Wild Flowers" SyO.,
extra cloth, gilt edges, So; Field, Wood" |
&C., 4tO, 81.
From the Hudson to the NeVa," by |
David Ker, Is narrative unusually true |
to nature, in which the author recOunts |
for the benefit of the boys, the story of |
travels and adventures in northern Eu- |
rope and the Malay Islands; 12mO, $I,25.

to a sentiment that is expected to find |
its proper expression, sooner or later, in

The American Steamship Company,
of Philadelphia, backed by great CAPT
talists and corporations, has abandoned
the attempt to keep the American flag
on the ocean. The Philadelphia Record
draws the moral:
By employing English sailors upon
English built steamships, sailing Un-
der the English flag, they get rid of tar
if and navigation law drawbacks, and
are enabled to carry American grain,
American provisions, American cotton.
American petroleum and Americans
themselves, across the seas, and fetch
returning carg0es, at a profit. Thirty
years ago the merchant navy of the
United States had almost 0vertaken the
merchant navy OF England i'm the peace
fnl contest for maritime supremacy.
To-day the ocean tonnage Of Norway is
larger than that of the United States.
Oversee commerce has entirely slipped
through our hands. The failure of the
American Steamship Company is the
failure of our hag on the high seas, ex-
cept for few sporadic ventures which
serve to remind us more DOintedly of
what has been and what is. The only
way in which American merchants can
prOitably engage in commercial ven
lures with the outside world is to de
natlOnalize their business.

THE Republicans of the district which
VIM. Mckinley, Jr., represented in the
FOrty-seyenth Congress, and which he
IS attempting to represent in the Forty
eighth, have been getting tired of him
for several years. There was consider
able opposition to his nomination in
1882. He was beaten at the polls, but
got the certificate of election through
infOrmalities in some of the ballots.
Mr. Wallace, his Democratic opponent.
claims The seat. Mr.. Mckinley will no
doubt prOlOng the contest as long as
possible, not only for the sake of the
Congressional pay and Whatever adYan-
tage there may be in the distribution of
documents, but for the purpose of keep
ing himself before his party for renomi-
nation next year. McKiniey's close
shave in 1882 was advantageous to him.
Elected by clear but small majority,
he would have been unable to secure
another nomination. Now he will claim
the favor of the Republican convention
for having been put out of the House.
All right. Let Mckinley come again.
Wallace is likely to be there or there

The Enquirer knows that Major Nc
Kinley was fairly elected to the Forty

Democratic majority will unseat him.
There never was a more INSCRIPTIONS

men who compose the present majority
of Congress. They have no idea Of pO-
litical honesty and they will pay 10 at

McKtnley's claim. Leader.
The Leader knows as any one may
who will look at the returns, that Major
Wallace was fairly elected and should
have received the certificate. Our cotem-
pOraries ignore the fact that the State
Board counted for Wallace Z Of the %
scattering votes returned, thus counting
in Mckinley by the limited number of
majority. Mckinley could not have
received the certificate on less and
hence was all the State Board could
allow, and save Mckinley. It is a case
too plain for dispute or discussion. Nc
Kinley was fairly beaten, and he him

the rest we'll know it.

SPEAKER CARLISLE AND THE TAR
IFF.

MR.. CARLISLE occupies no ambiguous
position upon the question Of tariff taxa
ton. He has repeatedly in the House
defined his position upon the subject of
tariff and revenue measures generally.
He is opposed to wiping out the inter
nal revenue taxes, but not opposed to a
decided reduction Of those impOsts.
Probably he goes as far as faVOring
the repeal of the tax on tobacco but not
on beer or spirits, He insists the peo-
pie will not sanction free whisky with
heavy taxes on clothing, blankets, boots
and shoes, sugar, etc.
On the tariff Mr.. Carlisle, for several
years, has taken leading part in the
debates in the House of representatives.,
and the ability of his speeches has been
universally conceded. 1t goes for the
saying that he is an opponent of pro-
lection as protection is understood in
Pennsylvania, and in the manufactur
ing states generally, out he is far from
being a radical destructive of existing
systems. The following extracts are
taken from the official reports of Mr..
Carlisle's speeches, and through them
his position can be clearly ascertained.
On the Sd of July, 1882, in opposing
the bill to increase the duty on knit
wOollen goods, Mr.. Carlisle says;
I'VE should have no fayoTites here.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1883-12-15

Mr.. CARLISLE is the fourth Keutuckian
who has occupied the Speakers chair,
his distinguished predecessors having
been Henry Clay, who was six times
Speaker; John White, who served one
term, and Linn Boyd, who served Two.
Mr.. Carlisle is man of acknowledged
ability, of large information, is thor
Oughly posted on all great political
questions of the day and Will prove an
able presiding officer and, we believe, a
safe and conservative one.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1883-12-15

REVENUE reform is the Democratic
claim with which to go before the peo-
pie. Reduction and equalization of tax
alton are absolutely needed for the well
fare of the people Of this country. This
is the pressing duty of Congress, and is
the mission Of the Democratic party.
We must get back to the plain require
ments of the Constitution, the object of
which is, ito establish justice, insure
domestic tranquility, provide for
"the common defense, promote the gen
"eral welfare, and secure the blessings
"Of liberty to ourselves and our pos
"teTity."
