Few things are more fascinating in their
way than a study of the subterranean
history Of man, whether in caves or ia
mounds, whether it be to coroborate
written history, or take testimony that
ante-dates all writing. President Bart
lett, Of yarmouth, contributes an interes-
ting article on this topic to the July num-
Der of the North American Review.
From the men of unknown ages and
their works underground, to men crap
ping with the latest questions of our own
day and discussing the parCellng out OF
the earth's surface, is long step; but IN
the same number of the Review appears
a conversation between David Dudley
Field and Henry George, on land and
taxation. Another urgent C1estion,
which may soon make a very serious
issue, the extradition of dynamite Grim
inals, is debated by President Angel, OF
Michigan University, George Tlcknor
Curtis, and Justice T. NJ. Cooley. Dor
man Is. Eaton, chief of the Civil Service
Commission, gives his views of the results
Of that reform. William Clarke shows
the futile character of any scheme tOr
British imperial federation, and Thomas
w. Knox gives a brief but interesting
sketch of the progress of European lntu-
ence in Asia. The other articles are one
by Gail Hamilton on Prohibition in prac-
tice, and one by Rev. DR.. G. II. Park
hurst on the decline of Christianity
These, with the batch of free-hand Com
ments, make up a number of unusual
interest. If the allotted age of man
were sufficient for magazine, we might
have to part here with an old friend: tor
the Review has just completed its seven
tieth year. But outwardly it renews lte
youth with a new cover, and inwardly II
seems more vigorous than ever.
