WE ARE BRETHREN ALL.

Mr.. J. Nj. LUDLOW writes in the
November Atlantic of "The Growth Of
American Influence Over England" and
contrives TO give America somewhat
more credit than Englishmen usually do
when they essay TO write about Ameri-
cans, or the performance Of Americans
The tracing of the growth Of Ameri-
can influence over England is interest
ing, though the youth who carried
LoNGFELIow's Excelsior" banner mid
snow and ice is bluntly called an idiot,
and his Psalm of Life" an absurdity.
(The reason tits absurd is that it speaks of
leaving "foot prints on the sands Of
time," which Mr.. LUDLOW fears may be
washed out by the next incoming tide .
The NEWS will not undertake to dis
cuss with Mr.. LUDLOW the fact that
America has impressed England, because
that is one Of those s.lf-evident facts
that has for a number of generations
needed no demonstration OF argument.
That Mr.. LUDLOW has himself awak-
ened to It's significance is hopeful sign.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.

Some few Democrats assembled last

elect chairmen to maintain order and
clerks to set down on paper their
proc eedings.
Then. again, from force Of habit they
elected delegates to a city convention to

sense have ceased TO look down upon
America. ''The feeling is now one OF
equality, Of brotherhood. But
| doubt it there be anyone who does not
feel that many things are better done In
The old country than in the new. No
one now lejoices when misfortune over
takes America
As to the latter. did not England re-
joice when CLEVELAND was elected
and again with Prot. WILSON over the
passage of tariff act that benefits no.
body on earth but the importers and
makers Of English and other European
goods
1t is, at any rate, comforting to our
vanity TO know that at last we may
aspire to feel like brothers toward the
English, even ii we cannot do most
things as we'll rs they can. How naiveiy
English is such a statement 1t is de-
licious, and redeems the article from
threatened dullness.
The other protruding point is the very
last sentence: "She must depose Judge
Lynch for good" This is a point that
irritates other feelings than the risibles.
1t has poison on its point-the poison OF
truth deservedly spoken; though IL IS
easy to reflect, with justice, that
England is disgraced by criminal pro-
pensities as abhorIent rs is lynching.
But such argument must not be ad-
mitted, even if the writer were summing
up what both countries have to do, and
so opened fairly the gateway to COM
parsons.
Judge Lynch is hateful to good
Americans--to all Americans, let Ii be
said. But the very same spirit that ig-
nored the law, 10 spill British tea in
b ston Harbor, chafes at coutemp ion
of the slow and often haling gait
of Justice, aud lynchings generally
take on something of the charac-
ter of just and righteous vengeance.
Our methods of judicial procedure are
little to blame for lynchings oftentimes,
as they suggest 10 avengers the posi-
bIlity of no punishment. So our Eng
lish brothers, who have just discovered
the relationship, must add TO each
story of lynching they are grieved by
the grano sails that will enable them to
consider those equations they do not ex-
perience, and believe that lynchings in
America are not permanent habit, nor
one that is considered as in any degree
admirable by US.
II seems strange TO Americans that
Englishmen of power and coordination
still persist in regarding sporadic cases
of the application Of lynch-law as ma
tional trait. 1t would be just as fair for
MS to assume tbst England abounds in
Jack the Rippers, and that Sir CHARLES
DILKEs earlier life typed the English
aristocracy.
Still, the writings of Englishmen
about America form a considerable por-
tion of that salt that savors our lives
with enjoyment. They are SO deuced
funny, those Englishmen, doncherknow!

The lady drew her skirts away,
And quickly she passed on.

While the other hurried along, alone,
And died that night in the cold.
