of this paper, and in reply to both inquiries we
declare that no such a condition of affairs ex-
ist that there were not twenty-three persons
in this city of any political faith wearing Har-
rison badges within hour after his nominal
ton, and that Mr. Harrison will not receive
any democratic votes in this locality, but on
the contrary will lose many votes when have

His culture was wide aud deep, his writ

cynical and preiudiced in his criticisms.
He was more or less of a phlistine all his
days, especially toward the everyday life
by which he found his eminence of Gull

He was IA prophet who was not without

all his cynicism, Matthew Arnold has
never written anything SO unkiud as not

The death of Matt new Arnold, which
occurred on sunday LIST from heart dis
ease, is calamity not only to England,
but to t1e entire EngiisL speaking world.
Mr.. Arnold mas fitly been called 1.-THE
apostle of sweetness and light Indeed
in few men of the present age have been
so closely and tremendously united the
esthetic and critical faculties. He was a
poet and At the same time scholar and a
thinker. With the exception of the poet
laureate, no man stood SO high in con
tomporaneOus literature. The son of the
most eminent scholar and educator of his
day, Rev. Thomas Arnold, head master of
Rugby, it is not strange that Matthew . ~
nold's culture and scholarly attachments
were notable as his literary gifts. He
has been closely identified with the cause
of education in England, and it is to him
that that cause owes much of its recent
progress. He became greatly interested
in systems of public education, and in 1913
was sent abroad by the English govern
tnent to obtain information respecting the
educational systems of France, Germany
and Holland, After submitting his report
Mr., ArnCl Id published the records of his
investigations in full. In 1868 he again
visited the continent to procure for the
royal commission on the middle-class ed
ucation information respecting foreign
schools for the middle and upper classes,
and published in 1867 volume on this
subject. Mr.. Arnold also devoted large
share of his time and energy to the office
of lay inspector Of schools, conferred upon
bin by the English government in
recognition of his eminent services
as a student Of educational problems.
Mr.. Arnold was elected professor OF
poetry at Oxford In 1857, position which
he held till 1867. His lectures at Oxford
university have become classics in the
criticism of poetry.
AS literary man Matthew Arnold was
by material gifts, critic rather than {
creator. Although he published con
siderable body of verse, much of it fault
less in form, lofty in sentiment and ex
qulsite in expression, he still lacked tn,
divine something which makes a man
great poet. 1t is upon his critical essays
chiefly that his fame as literary mar
must rest; and in this department o
writing it is safe to assert that Mr.. Ar
