LITERARY NOTES.

Ever since the announcement made last
winter that the author of Robert Els
mere had a new novel under way, sxpscta-
ton has been eager to know when it would
appear and what title it was to bear. Mrs.
Ward has shown herself to be a writer of
incontestable genius. Her high enthusiasm
for the moral elevation of the race has been
at one with the artistic impulse that has
guided her pen. Like George Eliot she has
once more taught us that fiction. far from
being q merely superficial representation Of
passing situations and emotions, may Crap
pie with the greatest problems and teach
men noble truths. 1t is with pleasure,
therefore, that we publish the fact that
Mrs. Wards new book is to appear very
soon from the press of Messrs. Macmillan
y Co., New York, and that it is to be called
'Ths History of David Grieve." 1t is
understood that the book will trace the ca
reer of a disciple of the Eismerian doctrines
in his work among the poor of London. We
are not surprised to learn that the advance
orders for Mrs. Wards book arc very large
and that the first edition will mount we'll
up into the tens of thousands. The His
tory of David G ieve" will of course be
copyrighted in this country underline inter
national copyright act, but the publishers
will show n proper Difference to the Ameri-
can liking for low. priced books by adding
it to their new series of dollar novels.

THE IL FLAG.

Capt. Palmer, commandments of
the G. A. r., is out with an official pro-
mitigation advising members Of that Or
der not to participate in public process
sions where the stars and bars are car
ried by men who fought in the southern
army. 1t Is not in the nature of an
order, for Capt. Palmer distinctly says
that members of the G. A. r. have the
right to do as they please in the matter,
but he holds it a violation Of the pledge
Of the order, and Furthermore says the
presence of the southern flag serves "to
fire the heart Of the young generation of
the south to rebellion" He then says:
"a comrade wearing the badge or uni
form of the order participating in any
demonstration where the rebel flag is
displayed brings disgrace on the
order Of which he is a mem
ber." We are inclined to think
Capt. Palmer is IN error when he says
the presence of the stars and bars at a
gathering composed entirely of southern
people, on occasions commemorative of
southern men or southern deeds, serves
to insire the young of the south to re-
bellion. The stars and bars have no
longer any current significance. The
flag is a sentiment, not an emblem; the
political division it once represented is
not on any printed map. Its presence
in a southern gathering excltes neither
zeal for the u Of secession nor
hatred toward the north. 1t inspires
at malice at all. 1t is but a fearful re-
hinder of dark days and great trials
through which the people have passed,
and from which they have come, tried as
by fire, better American citizens, better
citizens of the south. The rebel flag is
a personal grief to every southern SOL
der, as is the bouquet laid on the grave
of a dead comrade or the ancient mus
ket borne by a brother in the southern
army. Capt. Palmer is harsh when he
says that IA comrade of the G.. A. r.
"brings disgrace upon the order of
which he is a member" when he marches
in a procession in a southern city where
occasionally the stars and bars fly be-
meath the stars and stripes.

KINGS have no abiding place in the
Americas. Should u Dictatorship be es-
tablished in Brazil it will not last long.
Tho people Of that country have had a
taste of life under a republic, and it is
not probable they will ever again bow
down before an autocrat. Dom Pedro,
their exiled emperor, was a most hui
name ruler and an excellent gentleman.
But belief in the divine right OF kings
had gone from the minds Of his people,
and the kingship was abolished. The
western world is dedicated to freedom
and peace. The evolution of these ideas
Is slow but irresistible. Seldom has a
people once endowed with liberty and
constitutional government lost those
glorious prerogatives, and when this has
occurred it has generally been by the
invasion of barbarian hordes from some
country still under the sway of a despot.
Such a contingency is out of the ques-
tion in the Americas. Brazil will un-
doubtedly establish her republican form
of government more firmly than ever.
As time passes imperialists will become
fewer in number, and in a generation
will have become extinct. No outside
foe threatens, and it is not probable a
king will even for a brief time hold sway
over the big republic Of the south. The
dictatorship of Da Fonseca is scarcely
more than nominal and will be- of short
duration. The people themselves will
soon resume charge of the government.
The fate Of Balmaceda should serve as a
wholesome lesson to Da F~onseca.
