THE North American Review for
o ,eober loses mono Of Its interest by the
editors abeeuoe In Europe The topics
are practical and are ably treated.
Arbitration, by Richard 7. Ely, shows
the benefits OF that agency In settling
disputes between lAborers and employ
ers, and should be more favored and
prActiced The honest workipRmen OF
tho country and honest employers need
to be brought nearer each other, and
the nearer they are brought together
the more they will learn that their
interests really run parallel in nearly
all respects.
Gail Hamilton gives . pleasant, pa
thetic article called IAN American
Qaeen," and chooses for her ideal Miss
Zilpah P. Grant from Oonnsosleut-
Gail takes her ideal queen through all
tbs process OF q tescher TO show her
good traits OF character.
Willis 9. Paine, LII. D., treats Of
silver and savings banks, giving great
mass OF interesting information In re-
latlon to the coinage Of silver and the
guam sity required TO make an honest
dollar, and argues against the present
authorized dollar Of the nation.
Cremation has 60 far come into
general practice rs to warrant an able
article from Allen Gilman Blgelow,
comparing cremation with christianity.
The article 10 replete with research, and
an able defence Of the speedier way OF
reducing the body to Its original ele.
ments. Mr.. Bigelow divorces both
burials and cremation from christianity.
He says, wisely too, probably will
neither method be the universal one.
In some places mankind will bury, and
In others burn the dead till the end OF
time. Yet this need not affect the
growth OF christianity one way or the
other. The future OF the soul can never
depend upon the future OF the body
and IL Is the soul that christianity
would save.
Henry George, now the labor candi-
date for Mayor of New York city, gives
the third OF his series OF articles on
Labor In Pennsylvania. Mr.. George,
though sharply criticised for his former
srticles which bore down very hard on
the labor system In the coal mines,
sticks to IL and reiterates his charges
that miners make q better living in
England than they do here.
We are treated TO another chapter en-
Woman Suffrage by Mary A. Liver
more. She uses mp OaidA's writings
without mercy and says her novels are
distinguished for their ooarseness, and
her dainty puppets have an inordinate
appetite for the grossest forms OF sen
suality. The secret OF MAry's dislike
for Oaida 10 that the latter opposes VIC
man suffrage.
DAVID r Locke comes to the front In
an.attempt to bring ont somsthlng new
en- Prohibition, but his article Is an ex
cellent temperance lecture, q dark pi D
ture Of the terrible evils OF intemper-
snce, and these are used as argument s
for prohibition. Mr.. Locke evidently
still looks upon Maine as his ieal Pro-
hibition State, though some people up
there see the necessity Of still running
tenn peran % ticket.
Professor W. G. Summer, the free
trader, takes Hon. James 6. Blaine 70
task for his usterancss In the Maine ca u
paign In favor Of protection, and In his
own mind COM ple.ely uses up the Maine
statesman. His article would tie more
appropriately headed with something
like this, How to garble language. .
Following are the usual read bile snd
instructive notes and com nents on cur
rent topics, such topics as esrthq uak
probabilities by Professor Richart
Proctor. Col. G. Chaille Long Is tired
OF the obelisk and wants il cent bael
TO Egypt. General Beauregard a,
Temps to show some OF the mistakes Q
Rear Admiral Taylor and O. S. Thoms
gives an interesting article on the pro
gress Of Colorado.
