IMPORTANT TESTIMONY.

The Republican Defeat the Result Of In
telligent Thought.
The more the returns are studied, the
more clearly does 1t appear that the
Republicans lost most heavily where
the people are most intelligent and
where the tariff issue was most thor
-oughly discussed. The Council Bluffs
Nonpareil, stanch Republican news
paper Of Iowa, bears important testi-
mony upon this point The Congress
sional district in which that city Is sit
uated elected Judge Joseph r. Reed
two years ago, before he had voted for
the Mckinley bill, by large majority,
and defeated him a fortnight ago,
after and because he had voted for
that bill. In discussing his defeat.
the Nonpareil says ..As the returns
near competition and the result both
locally aud at large is known, the ma
ture and cause of Judge Reeds defeat
becomes clear. His defeat was in no
sense personal; it was but a working
out in this district of the same causes
that operated to effect the most over
whelming defeat the Republican party
has ever known The late election was
political revolution; 1t is sharply ac-
centuated in Judge Reeds district be-
cause 1t is peculiarly district Of intel
1igence and Independent thought.
Other districts, less educated, less
active, less inclined to think and Judge
for themselves, would have shown
other results" The State OF Massachu-
setts illustrates the same thing on a
larger scale. 1t is State distinguished
for its intelligence, and the political
revolution was sharply accumulated
there, as in the Council Bluffs district
of Iowa, because it is such State IN.

You will learn evil tidings soon

TELL me, my husband. Are not my
joys yours, your sorrows mine? Surely
we have not ceased to be one?"
"CiceIy," he said, rising, II did not
intend to cloud your happy brow with
my griefs; but 1t lis too late longer to
dissemble. ! had hoped, dearest to
outrfde this STERN aefz disaster, which
has wrecked so many OF our wealthiest

Tomorrow, however, q heavy payment

debts which would fully liquidate the
amount, instead of which, have heard
to-day Of the failure OF the firm on
which had SO wholly depended ("
But can the amount be raised In no

scraping together every dollar OF avail

And Is that all you lack?" asked his
wife.
'tAlll'' he replied. But what is the
use Of dwelling further upon it. ap

He sank back on the sofa, clasping
his hands on his closed eyes, He must
have lain there motionless for five OF
six minutes, when Cicely, who had left
the room, returned, and laid her soft
hand on his forehead.
Dearest, look up a moment. Do you
remember our childhood's fable of the
lion who was released from the net BY
little mouse's tiny endeavors?"
What of it?" he asked, with q
vague apprehension that Cicely's wits
had been little unsettled by the
sudden news of their impending mis-.
fortune.

Dear George, / saved it from my al

My darling wifer. faltered George
Raymond, ''you have preserved me from
ruin. This crisis once passed, can bid
defiance to misfortune"
At that moment Cice1y seemed to him
to wear the lovely guise OF an angel OF
rescue. Later in the evening, as she
sat by his side, she could not forbear
whispering, with touch of loving mis-
chief in her voice: George, who was
right about my financial abilities, you

"You little tease!" said he, laughing.

There lives out in Joe Canncn's dis

one of those women who obey their lord
and master blindly:

resigned sigh.

entering the house, said:

Against Cut and Dried criticism.

The art of criticism is such fine thing
that one must regret its present tenden-
cy to formulary. Ithas, think, such a
tendency among US, curiously enough
at the very moment when elsewhere
in France at least-it has emancipated
itself into the license of mere record
of irresponsible impressions. In En-
gland, perhaps, it is equally irreponsi-
BILE, but certainly not impressionist.
With us the novel mainly seems to be
the victim OF this tendency. Our critics
do not inquire too closely who they
are-are at the present moment nearly
unanimous in their preoccupation with
prescribing to the novelist from the old
rules of French unity and German OBJ
jectivity. This would be all very we'll
II they were professors in conservato-
ry where novel-writing was taught, but
1t savors distinctly rather of pedagogy
than of criticism. And though peda-
gogy may be more important than criti-
cism, it is at any rate different thing.
The great distinction perhaps between
the two is that one is mechanical and
the other spiritual. -Scribner's Maya
