NEW PUBLICATIONS.

Our Manifold Nature. Stories from
life by Sarah Grand, author of "The
Heavenly Twins" etc. At present Sarah
Grand is much mooted topic; her lit
erary and private life are discussed. with
strenuous difference of view in the first
instance. and perhaps Indifference to
fact in the second. Everybody peruses
The Heavenly Twins and is ready to
talk about the book, so that it bids fair
to rival the Chicago Exposition in i'm
planting in the heart desire to form
i. society for the suppression of the
people who want to tell you all about it.
Madam Grand's article in recent North
American has received very unfavoarble
comment, and in taking up these short
pleasure to be able to speak in hearty
praise of at least half the half d oxen
sketches contained therein. The preface
has touch of the severe and somewhat
irrlrated tone enc has learned to look
for in this writer. It also implies that
the narratives are of an earlier date in
her experience, though now first pub
lished after careful revision. Reading
them in an unprejudiced frame Of mind
more literary talent sis discovered in
them than in her completed noveIs-bet-
ter form and more human nature. The
Yellow Leaf. and Eugenia are on the
authors leading theme, and are the
least good in the collection. But Janey,
Kane, and All Man are fine studies and
full of pathos, wit land feeling. Boom
ellen, however, belongs with the two
first named, and in fashion turns ones
mind to that CHASTITY story of Ibsen's
Ghosts, and is woeful enough reading, it
must be confessed. We should advise
the conscientious student of the writers
of the day not to form an. ultimate
opinion OF Sarah Grand until he has
read these able and interesting short
stories. New York: d. Appleton &

The Washington Democrats are much
incensed over disappointment of an ILL
nois negro recorder of deeds of the Dis
trict of Columbia. 1t seems that before
election the heavy men of the party
would shell out literally for the cam
paign, fund only on the promise
that recorder should be selected
from among Washington residents.
Trusting to the promise, they shelled
out. But now the trade. has been repu-
dated by the administration, on whose
behalf it was made, and Democrat,
and colored one at that, imported from
Illinois given the most important office
in the District. They are laboring with
the Senate and hope to defeat the objec'
tiona ole appointment.

If Speaker Crisp doesn't look out he
will get himself called Nero, or a
Caligula or a Robespierre or a Danton.
People before him have been called all
these names for conduct far less tyranni-
cal than he was guilty of in shutting off
Congressman Dingley in the House on
Wednesday. The recent gush over him
anent his declination of the Georgia
senatorship has evidently considerably
enlarged his head.

Bland is going to introduce free coin
age bill right off, and the vote on the
seieniorage bill indicates that he can
pass it. There is no question but it can
pass the Senate. So the President is
likely to get another opportunity to save
the country from his party-something
that he has been doing ever since he was
inaugurated, and which constitutes his
chief claim to public gratitude.

6, Colorado is evidently sick of Populists
in general, and Populist Waitesin par
ticuIar. At the recent elections they
lost sixteen of the Twenty-Five towns
they carried last year. Gov. Waite's own
town repudiated him.

The Democrats of Rhode Island had
a very narrow escape from losing every
thing in Wednesdays election. AS it
was they succeeded in getting only
three mem bers of the legislature-three
senators land three representatives. In
the manufacturing towns which they
have usually carried their defeat was
verwhelming. We have no doubt that
there are Mugwump papers that will be
silly enough to argue that the cause OF
the defeat is the failure of the Senate TO
pass the Wilson bill. There is nobody,
however, silly enough to swallow any
such explanation.

The women seem to have taken a
pretty prominent part in the elections
of Colorado and Kansas, and the regis
tration shows that it was the best class
of women too that participated chiefly.
Indeed in the cities hardly any of the
low classes manifested any interest
whatever. At Spring Hill in Kansas
the women not only voted, but they
elected whole town government of
women; SO that the towns affairs next
year will be administered by the femi-
nine sex. The men are not in it at all.
1t will be interesting to see how they
will succeed in making the delinquent
tax payers pony up.

The murder of Chief Engineer Pad
dock of the H. C. Prick Coke Company
appears to have been a cold blooded, de-
liberate affair, without the extenuation
that murders committed by strikers
sometimes have. 1t was not committed
in the course of riot, when men have
lost control of themselves. The Hunga-
rians pursued him with the deliberately
formed intention of killing him-and
they executed their pit rpose in most
horrible and fendish way. not only
shooting him with bullets, but crushing
his head to jelly with stones after he
had fallen.

OF thee We sing,
Land where the wheels are tied,
Land where industries died,
And TO the Enelish side
Took rapid wing.
Ny native country! thee,
Land to which paupers fee,
Thy name L love;
Thy no-trade tariff bills,
Thy Greshams, Smiths, and Mills,
Born from above.
Let music swell the breeze,
Democrats TO your knees.
And swell the song!
Let those who brought this fate
Their medicine take straight,
And three years longer walt
To right the wrong.
Our father. Grover c.;
Mogul Of misery!
To thee we sing
Bear with us, II you can,
But, IL not, like a man,

AN INJUNCTION FEATURE.

one feature Of the injuuctions that
always seem to appear sooner or later
to stop the erection of state institutions
10 that they invariably appear after the
appropriation has been made and a
good share OF the money is collected
from the people 10 pay for them. Then
the expenditure is stopped and the
money lies idle in the state treasury.
In the case Of the Eastern Oregon
Asylum the Injunction csne in the
nick Of time to stop an investment, In
which the people of Union clearly over
reached themselves. In these hard
times no town, not even salem, has
q right to demand that the state shall
pay $4,000 or 1000 for the privilege
of locating state institutions in its
midst. Plenty Of good sites can be bad
free gratis. These enioiners could be
in better business than tying up the
money that is already being collected
from the people.
