NfYTHODIC MOOUESS.

One OF the most energetic advocates
OF the organization OF Dickinson coun-
ty was Representative Doyle. He
worked for the scheme In season and
out. He also got qucstionably
mixed up with the charter legislation
OF Iron Mountain, which is the county
seat OF Dickinson county. Altogether
he lost a good deal OF reputation In
that locality. Now he is going to
find his good reputation where he lost
it. The Marquette Mining Journal
says: Hon. NJ. j. Doyle has quit the
500 and will become a resident OF
Iron Mountain, the seat OF government
OF Dickinson county. The Mining
Journal thought It was madness on
Doyle's part to dip into the Dickinson
county fight so deeply last winter, but
now sees that there was method
in il. He has this papers best hopes
for his success professionally at Iron
Mountain, but if he has political as
piratious he would have done wisely

that there's not much in a name when

There is no wonder that the Bour-
bon Democrats of Kansas have gone
into Mysteries over the Uroads h.ade
by the Alliance upon their ranks.
While the Alliance hit the Republican
party also a severe blow. it's effects are
of a more temporary nature than the
effects on the Democracy. The Toledo
Blade wen illustrates the difference.
II says: while the Republicans Of
Kansas received pretty serious set
back last fall. they are not in nearly
as bad condition as are the Democrats
of that State. The voters, acting on
the advice OF their leaders. went into
the Alliance last fall to defeat the Re-
publicans. but those Democrats have
now become the most devoted follow
eres of the financial heresies OF the
Alliance leaders, while the Republican
members. probably being more intelli-
gent, are getting sick OF the business
and coming back into the Republican
ranks. We should not he surprised to

lated by an American. Mr.. Edward Greery.
Clever japanese assure me that it is i'll
translated. and that the use of honorilics,
which lends such a quaiEtness to it, is in
most instances misplaced. But to the tor
cigner who has travelled in Japan it has
the merit of resurrecting Japan before one
with Witci-of- Endor-like power.
The books which I have more particu-
larry under consideration in this article
are seven volumes of SO called novels.
printed in Japan itself by a purely
Japanese firm. in order to give foreigners
a notion of Japanese romances and the
Japanese notion OF how foreigners would
express the ideas conveyed in their books.
Three of these volumes are taken up with
the life of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the hero
of Japan, whose work, carried on and
completed by the great Iyeyasu. the
founder of the Tokugawa dynasty of
Shoguns, UNIFIED Japan into such an
empire as was in 1870 born in Germany
out of the chaos of feudal municipalities.
Two more are taken up with the life of
Miyamoto Musashi. But those are rather
historical exaggerations than novels, from
the American point of view. And the
Japanese make a speciality of historical
exaggeration. While we were in Japan
the editor of newspaper was actually
sentenced to four years imprisonment for
venturing to write in flippant way of the
emperor, Jimmu Tenro, the first of the
line, being the nephew of the Sun.
