in a publisher letter apropos of the
erotic poetry of the day: "If this

the name of poetess will soon become a
term of reproacli, a deadly insult, and
the work of the high priestesses of the

Christina Rosetti and Jean Ingelow,
for the intellectual advancement of our

An Obnoxious Law.

Leland Stanford and G. p. Huntington
have decided to withdraw the Southern
Pacific from Texas. The late law in that
state provides that no railroad company
operating roads within its borders can have
any legal status unless it maintains its
principal Office therein. The Southern Pa
citic officials say they could not do the
latter, therefore the three Texas and Lou
isiana roads that now form a part of the
Southern Pacific main line to Now Orleans
will hereafter be operated as distinct roads,
with different sets of officers.
