A GREAT MAGAZINE.
The Century for 1889


@7HE question has often been

-A larionf'' The Christian U,if0n
NNIMy once answered this by the
E statement that sit has been
fairly won, not by adver-
Using schemes, but by the excellence which
characterizes it in every department" In
their announcements for the coming year
the publishers state that it has always been
their desire TO make The Century the one in
dispensable periodical of its class, so that
whatever other publication might be desira-
bic in the family, The Century could not be
neglected by those who wish to keep abreast
of the times in all matters pertaining to
culture. And the unprecedented clrcula-
ton OF the magazine would seem TO be the
response of the public to this intention.
With the November number The Century
begins its thirty-seventh = IN

the inside history of the z NJ

THE SIBERIAN PAPERS,
by George KEENAN,, are attracting the at
tention of the civilized world. The Chi
cago Tribune says that mo other magazine
articles printed in the English language JUS
aow touch upon subject which so vitally
interests all thoughtful people in Europe ane
America and Asia" As is already known
copies of The Century entering Russia have
these articles torn out by the customs official:

Christmas Presents.

ITDIASAPoIIs, Dec 2a.-This was a busy
( day with the presidens-eieet The morning
! was largely given TO his correspondence.
/ There were many callers in the afternoon
and evening, chiefly fownspeopie. Uf the
outof-tOwn callers of prominence there
Judge II. y. CAfFnn and col W. l. Ryner-
son Of New Mexico. and Samuel ". Alier-
/ ton, the Beil-kDOwn CnieaSo capitalist.
The visit 10 Gen. Harrison was largely So
Cial, but also political, since they are earn
esiiy advocating 'shome rule" for the terri
tories II Is believed they urged upon the
president-eleet strict observance of that
plank in the Republican platform which
favors the appoiutmant of residents of the
territories "a federal Offices there ia. They
claim similar promises embodied In the
national platforms have been grossly yio-
lated in New Mexico and believe every
federal officer, from governor down 10
s;enographer ought to be supplied from
residents of the territory.
II is thought their visit to-day was an In.
formal one and merely precursor to some
general movement on the part of the peo-
pie, especially the Republicans, OF New
Mexico. looking TO the complete emancipa
ton from nonresident rule. II is not
known what views. II any. the president
elect expressed in his talk with the New
MeNicaus, but q gentleman who claims TO
know somewhat OF Gen. Harrison's views
on territorial questions says the general
has for wears been "A believer in territorial
