We rejoice to see that the Register is
firmly seized of the idea that the Hon. A.
MAxcy Killer is rising, but We do not think
It ought to feel obliged to let that idea run
away with 1t as 1t did yesterday. Filled
with the thought that he IL rising and
knowing that that which keeps him rising
is located in his head, It pictured him with
. dome of thought rising far above that
which in reality crowns his we'll proper
toned head and concesls the efficient ma
chinery by which he rises. We suppose
the Rsgister meant we'll by its work of art
Perhaps 1t intended to impress those who
might see 1t with the idea that Brother
Hitler Is slong-headed, as be certainly is. But
its picture is neither faithful to Its original
nor properly ideal. That too lofty brow
indicates that its possessor is . dreamer,
and not a. man of action; that he Is an
artist and not an arti6oer; that he is q
poet and not practical; that he is . preach-
or and . prayer who does not practice. In
short, the Register pictures Brother Hill
ler's head in a way that would greatly mis-
lead anyone who did not know him. The
only other picture of the kind We remem-
Der seeing was In book on Phrenology,
and 1t was marked abnormal" and was
intended to illustrate an extreme develop
ment of the bumps called Ideality, Bsnevo-
lenoe, Venerstion, Msrvelousness, etc.
We protested when the Register de-
scribed Brother Hillsr as ''risen." We
protest when 1t pictures his forehead
% rising SO high as to give .
wrong impression of him. Brother
Killer has indeed the poetic quality. He has
proved his right to stand among those who
are titled for lofty learning. He 10 prop

10 not crank. He is man who has motive
power enough in the back of his head to

and Rsaectiveness and Judgment enough
to govern the whole performance. He can
think and act, plan and execute. He is
