The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1888-07-02

large demand, as it deals with a question
that is now largely occupying the attention

history of the tariff legislation, and clears
up many points, which, perhaps, are clouded
IN doubt in the minds of many voters

Mrs. Wallace, who is the wife of Gen.
Lew Wallace, author of "Ben Hur." is we'll
known as one of the brightest, most enter
tanning and instructive writers of the day.
This volume will greatly enhance her repu-
tation. 1t is delightful thing to visit with
her the picturesque, romantic, always
curious, and sometimes wonderful, scenes
which she places before the reader almost as
vivldly as the reality. The story of an ancient
American civilization-if not as old as that
of Egypt, yet even more deeply shrouded IN
myStery-is fascinating one, and ought to
be familiar as may be to all American
readers.

This is strong and interesting love story,
with glimpses into high southern society
and now and then a dash of sensation. The
scene is laid in New Orleans and on the
great Louisiana plantations, Lagrange"
and Emerald" The hero is a planters
son, who in turn becomes planter himself,
and the heroine is Hortense CASTOR, the
belle of New Orleans, and a planters
daughter. They are depicted naturally and
well, and the reader follows the fortunes
of the hero and heroine from first to last
with unfiagging interest. Many typical
people of the south are brought on the stage
and described with force and truth. The
novel has an excellent plot, is well told, and
possesses continuous interest.
MAGAZINES.

excellent articles, all of which are interest

street, New York.

cellence long since reached by this noble
periodical One of its important features

trated with engravings of his home in
Washington, the most interesting picture

were written. TAB Broadway, New York

lection, the Enemy of Wages" by Thomas
G. Sherman. j. S. Moore tells what he
knows about Wool" The first half of

form" submits some pertinent questions to
the taxpayer and citizen for answer The

ted to heavy, although timely, reading.

one hundred pages, entitled "Old Man Gill

MIR. Edmund's article on "The Political
Situation" opens the July number of the
Forum, which is as full of ideas this month
as an egg is full of meat. Mr. Edmunds
discusses the situation in its larger aspects.
He sets forth what his party, if restored to
power proposes to do, viz, to correct the in
capabilities in the custom laws, eradicate de-
baucheries in the civil service, diminish
exhorbitant revenues, extend commercial
interests of this country among other
nations and defend all human rights. The
programme is so fair that the reader only
wonders why, having the chance, Mr. Ed
mund's party did not fulfil it long before,
and stay in. Edward Atkinsons paper,
Chow Wages Can Be Increased, is forti-
fled by statistics and seems conclusive.
Another article of moment is MOnSignor
Bouland's "Romansm and the Republic
based on the Catholic church's attitude to-
ward the common school system. Henry
Woods paper on 1.-The Bugbear of Sugar
Trusts" is significant in the presence of the
sugar trust convention now in session,
which he says shows signs of disintegration.
