ROGER Q. MILLS strives to hit the
bulrs-eye OF popular feeling In his
resolution before congress for full re-
ciprocity with Mexico There is no
doubt that Roger is in the swim and
has correctly heard the voice OF pub bile
opinion calling loudly for reciprocity
treaties with Mexico and al the
American republics. The unfortu-
nate part of the affair at this juncture
for Roger is that his voice is only an
echo Of the great republican leader
whom he despises, James G. Blaine.
The supreme opportunity for Roger
was one year ago when as the leader
of the government party in congress
he might have immortaliZed himself
by such measure and compelled the
republ can opposition to follow his
lead or bear the brunt of the popular
condem alton for refusing. Prophecy
is more true than history, but Roger is
40 true political prophet.

THRRK 10 no reason to fear q good
working Republican majority in Con
gress ior some time to come. If Ida
no and Wyoming are admitted a.
States, the Senate will secure four ad-
ditional Republican members and the
electoral college be strengthened.
And, as the election con tests are deter
mined, they will result in increased
Republican mbership in the House
of Representatives. Concerning this
latter, the Globe-Democrat says:
1.-THE Republicans are morally GER
tain OF gaining two seats in the House
of Representatives on account of the
contests in the West Virginia Con-
gressiunal Districts. Here will be an
addition of two to the Repu blican
strength, and a reduction of two from
the Democratic total. The Republi-
cans have a majority of eight now,
providing every seat were filled, but
they will have a majority of twelve
when the West Virginia cases are set
tied. AS there are several other con-
tests in which the law and the equi-
ties are on the side of the Republicans,
the majority for the party in the
House may be increased to twenty OF
over before the session ends.n

IN THE nomination OF Major Harlow
to the long disputed postmastership
of st. Louis, President Harrison has
gone outside of political leadership
and conferred the covered honor upon
practical and experienced servant of
the postal service. Major Harlow is
not only a republican without re-
proach and soldier with a record,
but he has for years been connected
with the postal department at Wash
ington and is considered the ablest
railway mail superintendent in the
postal service. General Superintend-
snt Bell Of the railway mail service
regards Harlow as the ideal superin-
tenGent. The appointment pleases
every one and Is square promotion
under civil service rules. The bosses
are downed In the struggle and the
st. Louis repu blicans are glad.

TIM Austin Globe has this sensible
say anent the tariff question:
"The only successful way to deal
with the tariff question is for Texas to
build up manufactures, and then we
can get the benefit of protection"
With $50, 1000, 900 invested in manu-
featuring in Texas the cry of the free
trader would be lost in the roar of ma
chinery, and the Mills bill forgotten

1.-THE ROSE OF FLAME"
Sketch of Anne Reeve Aldrich. q Rising
Literary Star.
Spec. Correspondence. ]

lSpSc23. correspondence
BOSTON, May I2-Some time ago there
flashed upon the reading world volume
of poems entitled ''The Rose of Flame" by
Anne Reeve Aldrich. Intense, tinglng
with life and magnetism, full of intuitive
vision and imaginative grace that fasci-
mated and baffied readers by the very white
heat of the feeling embodied. Now there
comes a novel by the same author, 1.-The
Feet Of Love, and the world is asking who
is Anne Reeve Aldrich?
Miss Aldrich is a native of New York,
where she was born in 1856. In her early
girlhood her father removed TO Long Island,
but four years ago the family returned to
New York, where they are now living. The
young girl received most of her instruction
under masters at home, although the most
valuable part of her education, perhaps,
was that which she absorbed, rather than
consciously acquired, from browsing at will
in large and varied library. AS child
she was especially fond of the old dramatists
and of medieval literature.
Il used to print little stories and plays
as soon as l could form the letters" she
said recently to a friend, but when was
about l left off this primitive literature
and became absorbed in instituting a kind
of fairy worship among my little play
mates: An entire new religion, with an in
visible fairy god, TO whom we made offer
ings of fruit and poured out our oblations,
and who was supposed to live in the trunk
of certain tree, before which we always
Frustrated ourselves il passing"

Senator Evarts and Sitting Bull.

ALBANY, \. Y, May 12.--Scu&tOr EvaTts

of the late Indian chief Sitting Bull, given
him during the visit Of Sle Sioux delegates
to Washington. The senator prizes it high

Never shall forget the circumstances
under which l first saw this really brave
and famous warrior seven years ago. Il
was at the laying Of the corner stone Of the
capitol of Dakota at Bismarck, and there
was there a unique and remarkable ex-
hibition Of mon and manners.
l do not believe any city or state in the
Union has held at one time SO historic, in

The comedy element in this is supplied
by the fact that the children's parents be-
came frightened at this reconstruction of a
modern Druidic religion, and the children
were forbidden to join in this worship of
unknown gods, leaving the imaginative
little Anne very forlorn priestess with no
devotees.
When about IS her poetic gift began to as
sert itself Enthusiastically She sent a crude
little poem to Scribner's Monthly now The
Century magazine) and MIR Glider, who was
then assistant editor. returned it as a mat
ter of course, but sent with it so kind a
letter that the young girl trod on air after
reading it. Mr. Glider has always con-
tinued to be Miss Aldrich's friend. and his
occasional criticism has been most valua-
BILE to her. Since that first audacity Of
early youth, Miss AIdrich has had poems
accepted by The Century.
Miss AIdrich loves the city as ThOreau
did the country. She wants people, always.
1t is life, not nature, that appeals to her.
1t is the intensest life with which she is in
sympathy. Her poems included in the vol
ume, THE Rose of Flame" do not, of
course, appeal to those who only care for
verse that celebrates nature. She is, in
deed, the daughter OF the intensest period
of modern life, who ''would be, see, taste,
feel all"
Personally Miss Aldrich is very lovely
A slight, graceful figure; a countenance
exquisitely chiseled, with dark hair rip
ping away from a broad, low brow, and
eyes luminous in their starry depths. She
is fond of writing in the silent, lonely
hours ofthe night, when the world is still.
There is about her fascinating kind Of
Hellenic grace; and in the refinement, the
choice diction, and the mingled intensity
and passionate power Of her romance there
lies promise and prophecy of brilliant and
lasting achievement.

Gne war and yet could not print. In one OF
my letters to MIR. Bennett l stated that we
mad the key to the enemy's signal code,
and were thus able to know what was go
ing on in the opposition lines. Secretary
Stanton, who did not like the press very
well. had made rule that the name Of
every war correspondent should be printed
at the top of his dispatches, and this made
us careful, for we knew that every word
was watched with the vigilance of hawk
by Stanton and his men.
