more rampant. South Carolina has never
got out of her head the idea that she may do
as she pleases without regard to the other
members of this indissoluble Union. The
present issue was over what was known as
the Clemson bequest bill. One L. G. Glenn
son, who became possessed of certain por-
ton Of the property Of John G. Calhoun
through marriage into the family, upon his
death bequeathed the old Calhoun homestead
in Oconee county to the State of South Caro-
lima for an agricultural college. Miss Isabel
Lee of New York, great-granddaughter of
John q. Calhoun, contested the will, and the
United States Circuit Court granted an in
junction restraining the executors from car
rying out its provisions. In spite of this, the
South Carolina Legislature passed an act ac-
cepting the gift. What was the action of
United States Court to the Legislature of
the sovereign State" of South Carolina!
But Governor Chamberlain has more sense
and perhaps little better memory of the
lessons of the past, than the Bourbons of the
Legislature, and has vetoed the bill This
act has caused great agitation in the State as
the acceptance of the Clemson bequest was
made political issue. But Governor Cham
berlain justifes his position by showing the
lnexpediency of South Cardinals opposing
her sovereignty to the courts of the nation,
and also by calling attention to the consider
alton which should be paid to the cause of
the granddaughter of Calhoun, whose
whole life was devoted to South Carolina
and who was one of the towering three who
made the States of Massachusetts,, Kentucky
and South Carolina so noted in American
history"

interesting. study, knowing by observation
whereof he speaks. Mr.. Lowell believes
that the chief danger to these Far
orientals is their impersonality; and that
unless these races greatly change and their
newly imported ideas take root they
are destined to disappear before the adj

will off the face of the EARTH" For Mr. Low

All Sorts and Conditions of Men. An I'M
possible Story, byWalter Besant, Illustrated.
New York: Harper & Brothers; Portland:
Loring, Short & Harmony This volume
belongs to the Harpers' new library edition
of the works of Walter Besant. The plan of
the story had been arranged with his friend
and literary partner Mr.. James Rice before
the death of the latter, to whose memory 1.-THE
work is dedicated. For some unknown rea-
son the titles of the Besant & Rice novels
seem to have no more connection with the
plots than the title Of Artemus Ward to his
lecture on "The Babes in the Woods" in
which these historical infants are now men
toned from the beginning to the end. One
might as well call the present volume "Hick-
DRY Dickory Dock" or, "a Frog He Would a
a Wooing Co." as to name it "All Sorts and
Conditions of Men," but as according to Mr..
Wemmick, "a man has perfect right to call
his house an island if he wants to" we will
not demur further. Mr.. Besant's story is a
very good one, clever and amusing and the
slime" is within the memory of man, which,
in this respect is an improvement upon some
of his previous works. This being merely a
new edition of the novel the remarkable ca
reer of ANGELA Marsden, and the equally un-
usual experience of Harry Jocelyn is quite
familiar to the novel-reading public, and
needs no new lights thrown upon it,:

The fire on Federal street yesterday ought
to prove valuable lesson to city councils.
Permission was granted to build the burned
building in the face of most strenuous
protest 1t was urged that on account of its
character and the purposes to which it was
to be put, it was peculiarly liable to fire, and
consequently would increase the rates of in
surance on dwelling houses near it and cause
depreciation in the value of property in
its vicinity. 1t was urged, also, that the
use for which the building was originally in
tended would make it nuisance to the
neighborhood. These representations were
all well sustained by evidence, and expert
ence has proved them all true Lately the
building has been let for school, so that re-
Gently there has been no ground for coD,-
plant of the use to which it was put. But it
has been constant menace to neighboring
dwelling houses in the way of fire. So there
will not be many tears shed at its destruc-
tion. 1t never ought to have been allowed
to be built in the first place. Its location
was neither suitable nor proper for place
OF entertainment.

Since February 1887 there have been three
bye-elections for members of the Dominion
parliament in the constituency of Cumber-
lind, Nova Scotia. In the first election Sir
Charles Upper, the Conservative candi-
date, was elected by majority of 462 over
the combined vote of the Liberal and Third
parties. In November following Sir Charles
again defeated his opponents by majority
OF TAI, Conservative gain Of about 800. In
July, 1888, Mr.. Dickey, Conservative, was
elected bya majority of 7e4, slight gain
over Sir Charles's majority in the preceding
November. On Wednesday last another
election took place in this district and Mr..
Dickey was again returned by 100 majority.
gain in year and half of about AGO. 1t
is difficult at this distance to understand all
the causes that have produced these Con-
servative gains, but it is fact that CONNER
cial union has been prominent issue in
Nova Scotia politics, and therefore 1t is alto
ge,bei probable that this question has had
something to do with It. If SO, then the
tendency in Nova Scotia is away from closer
commercial relations with the United States.
for the Conservatives have opposed CONNER
cial union, while the Liberals have adyo-
Gated it.

The Aroostook Republican says that with
in a.short time.two prominent citizens of Fort
Fairfield, men OF good standing and emf
nently respectable have been arrested and
taken to Bengor, on charge of liquor SNUG
Cling The evidence against both of them
was SO meagre that they were promptly dis
charged as soon as they received hearing.
Within the past two weeks two old residents
OF Caribou, men Of good character and stand
ing In the community, never having sold
liquor while they had lived there, have suf.
Tered the same experience as the Fort Fair
neld gentlemen, only they were taken to
Portland instead of Bangor. 'The arrest of
these gentlemen" says the Republican, was
as ridiculous as 1t was outrageous" and the
complaint, that paper is sure, was made out
OF pure malice. The Republican is inclined
to think that the United States mar shals
were manifesting altogether more
zeal than discretion in making
these arrests. But the fault. if fault
there be, probably lies hack Of the marshals.
who probably have no discretion in the mat
ter, and must execute orders given them.
Where the blame lies doubtless is upon
the malicious persons who make the COM
plants. They should be discovered and
soundly punished II they have knowingly
instleat'd unjust prosecutions. The
Republican thinks If this thing is
to continue. and Innocent men
are to be put to the expense of proving their
innocence, the expense to them ought to be
made as low as possible by establishing
commissioners court in Aroostook county,
where preliminary hearing can be given.
at present arrested parties are taken to Ban
gor or Portland, and are thus put to large
expense to get home again.

HARRISON AND THE sPoILsMEN.
New York Press.l
No one has stated this question more clear
ly than General Harrison. The present law
appointments to the classified civil
ought to be. Extensions of the classified list
may prove practicable and desirable. Legs
lstion looking to this end will receive the next
Presidents approval. That ought to be clear
enough to any one capable of comprehending
that adding a column of figures and perform
ing routine or mechanical work is one thing
and assuming the responsibilities of manage
ment or direction is quite another.
To the victors belong the responsibilities.
