 The Review of Reviews, always timely in the subject matter it pre- sents, is especially so in the July number. Although the month GOV cred by this issue expired less than five days after the Republican can didate for President was nominated, it contains perhaps the most com plete and intelligent character sketch of Benjamin Harrison that has ever been written. In the text of the aticle appears portrait of President Harrison at the desk. on the 18th of June-four days after the Minneapolis Convention adjourned. In addition to this sketch of the nominee of the Re publican Convention there are re- viewed and discussed, in the de- partment The Progress of the World" the work aud proceedings of the Convention itself. With this account are presented portraits of the most conspicuous figures in that great political assembly; Governor Mckinley, Chauncey NJ. Depew, Senator Wolcott, General John C. New. Ex- Senator Ingalls, Ex-Speak- or Reed and Mrs. J. Ellen Foster. 1 There is besides these striking portrait of Hon. Whitelaw Reid, the Republican nominee for Vice-Presi- dent. The character sketch of Ben jamin Harrison in the July number of the Review of Reviews is by Gen eNal Thomas ]. Morgan, a personal 1 anA political friend of the President. While naturally friendly and appre- ciative, the article is yet discrimi- hating. The Review of Reviews IS a non-partisar magazine, and pub fishes the sketch of the Republican nominee now on accoun. of Its time- | illness. for the same reason that It cave in the February number a Character sketch of Governor Hill, and may be expected to give in the August number character sketch of NIT. Grover Cleveland.
