ANOTHER HAS GONE

Dispatches from Toxic, Japan, an
nounce the death of Minister Swift at
that place. The deceased was one of
the best known and respected public
men in the country. He was a native
of Missouri, but in later years was
prominent in politics in California.
During his term as governor of that
state he wrote the famous anti-Chi-
nese petition which was presented tc
the United States senate. He was
rich, an able lawyer and an afTable and
pleasing conyersationalist. Quite q
prominence was obtained by him il
literary circles, among his noted books
being "Going to Jerico," and a worl
of fiction, Rupert Greathouse."

GOVERNOR LAUGHTON

Hon. Charles f. Laughton, lieuten-
and acting governor, has
been disappointment-to his enemies,
They, however, are very few,
fewer than they were a year ago, much
fewer that they were three months
ago. He has been a delight to his
friends, and they are legion. There
was no reason why he should have had
any enemies beyond those people
whose nature it is to hate men who
win friends by their brilliancy of in
telIect their geniality Of disposition,
their straightforwardness in busi-
ness, their integrity of charac-
ter their decisiveness upon questions
brought before them, their manliness
of bearing, their eaTnestness Of pur-
pose and the popularity that these
traits always bring. Governor Laugh
ton possesses them all in an eminent
degree, and he has fully, clearly, posi-
lively aud spendidly evinced them
publicly, since his incumbency Of the
/ high office Of Lieutenant Governor,
and emphasized them In the perform
ance of his gubernatorial duties. He
! has been a wise, cordial, welcome and
satisfactory element of intermedia-
ton and coadjuvancy between the leg
islature and the people, and in every
particular he is and has been the right
man in the right place. In it all he
has earned the deep gratitude and
the enthusiastic admiration Of Wash
ingtons best citizenship.
Governor LaHghton Is not making
the mistakes that his enemies haC
predicted and expected. His entire
administration has been marked in ii
uprightness, justice and intelligence
The people awaited the issuance of hi
annual address and its advent called
forth the very highest praise from al
and by many, including Governo
Ferry, it is pronounced the ablest stat
paper as yet given by any Of the of
fcials OF our new state.

It is n great mistake for the literary as
pirant to imagine that his returned manu-
script has committed any offense, or that
his muse, if he has strided Pegasus, cannot
soar. What he must do is TO sail forth
with it again and again until it reaches
favored port, which it will surely do if it
has the requisite merit. somewhere and at
some date. President Lincoln used TO say,
when be was trying faithfully and with
great diligence to place the various able
men who were presented TO him for the
civil service and for the army, that it was
a very difficult matter to get the square
pegs in the round holes and the round pegs
in the square ones. And il is just this
difficulty which confronts the writer for
periodicals and magazines. No matter
how experienced he may be he will often
fail before he brings his commodity to the
market which waits for it.
But editors do not wish TO be cruel or
hardhearted, however much they may seem
so to the unspurred and unfledged writer.
The very best and most famous of them
have often told me that one of the saddest
and most thankless duties they have to
perform is to return a contribution that
for some good reason does not prove TO be
available. When once wrote some verses
treating this necessity humorously, had

A LETTER FROM MIR. 10y
Who Writes Concerning the z. NJ. G. a
and the Public Library

and the Public Library
EDITOR HERALD:--In an editorial in a
recent issue of your paper | fear the idea
is conveyed that those who attended the
mass meeting last Sabbath afternoon in
the interest of the Young Mems Christian
Association were not in sympathy with
the public library enterprise,
OF course | can only speak for myself,
but no one on that occasion, directly or
indirectly, expressed such lack. At the
close Of the meeting remarks were made
favoring the movement, but as twas then
late It was thought best, doubtless by all,
not to enter upon the consideration of a
matter of so great Import.
There are reasons why the Y. M. G. A.
/ and public library cannot now be con-
sidered together.
/ The Y. NJ. c. A. needs and must have
/ right away, secretary who will give him
self to the work OF helping the young mer
/ that flock to our city, and convenient
comfortable rooms. This can be done al
once. To build a library will take more
/ time.
The library enterprise can move slowly
the Y NJ. G. A. must make haste. IL
place them together now would hinder
the one without advancing the other
With secretary in the field, comfortable
temporary quarters, reading room open
then the permanent I'M erests OF both enter
prises can be planned together.
The hope of the Y. NJ. c. A. seems abou
to be realized. Let a mass meeting b.
called In the interest of a public fibrar!
and have no doubt the citizens of Fair
haven will manifest in a very emphati
manner their interest in public library
and appreciation of the public spirit ant

THE NUDE IN ART

1t takes a degree Of prudery and
mock modestY which can only be
found among the most ignorant peo-
pie in this country TO discover anything
immodest in such a grand work o. ART
as the "Greek Slave" and other famous
pieces Of sculpture Of that character.
Some innocent old Aunt Jerusha might
think it a shame, and mean and sungT

who wouldn't at least "buy the poor
thing a kaliker wrapper The same
may be said Of famous paintings.
among which is that Of "Buben's
Wife" But like the line between the
sublime and the ridiculous there is a
point in the production Of nude pic
lures where decency and aesthetics fall
suddenly and widely apart, and yet the
reason for it is difficult to end.
A telegram from Philadelphia says
formal protest against the continued
display Of certain studies Of the nude
at the exhibition Of the Academy Of
Fine Arts has cen made by a coterie
OF well known Philadelphia ladies'.
Many of the pictures deemed objection
able we're contributed by well known
American artists, whose work hitherto
has not appeared to shock the sensi-
bilities Of the public. Now the pic.
lures which the ladies specify in theil
bill Of particulars have attracted more
than their share Of attention during
the progress OF a very successful eX
hibition. They are by no means sug
gestive, urges prominent art patron
and no prurient taste would be excited
by them, but for some such letter a
was yesterday written.
In the letter sent TO the COMMITTEES
on the selections of the exhibition tb
professors say among other things
owe desire, in the name of th
womanhood of Philadelphia, to protes
against the fragrant indelicacy o
many of the pictures now on exhibi
ton. Its the general sentiment tina
never before in Philadelphia has moo
esty been so ruthlessiy assailed. A
Christian women, as modest wOmef
we feel this to be an 0ifense TO on
womanhood, an attack on the delicac
of our daughters. and the morality

on, should never take precedence

and morality"
