TENDENCY OF AMERICAN ART.

No one can say that American artists lack
talent, but everybody must say that American
art is as yet only weak copy of French art.
Most American artists have studied in Paris.
and many of them still live there where they
are not only influenced by French methods
and ideas, but where the scenes about them
from which they take their subjects are as
French as the palettes and mahl-sticks they
buy there. Is their work then supposed to be
American Just because their grandiathers went
over in the Mayfiower once upon a time. and
because they themselves lived in their salad

Cut-throat wars between rival lines, reducing
transportation for short time below what is
fair and reasonable, seem beneficial while they
continue, but in the end they harm rather than
help legitimate business. Chicago has always
