Scott Is said to have written "Waveray'

rapidly, seldom revised, and as a con-
sequence, his novels are fun of blunderS
inaccuracies and anachfonismsA
Burns committed his poems to memory
as he composed them and when Ihe stat
down to write he had before him no labor
of composition but only the task of
writing down what he had already fin
tahed.
George EUlot rs sllld to have written
"AThddiemarch" In four months. Some
doubt Is thrown upon this statement
by the fact that she commonly worked
slowly, writing With great care and maxi
Ing few erasures after her work was done.
Dickens suJls In the lntroduStlon to

years In the composition of thnt novel,
He did not usually require so Gong a

is a statement of hard facts which ought
to be considered by the SIDE of Demo-
cratic claims that the country is prosper

Democratic politics. Its condition yet is
a long way inferior to that from which

THE REASON WHY.


It seems that neither the Union Iron
Works OF San Francisco, nor the
Cramps, nor the English shlpbuilding
firms have secured from the japanese
government any orders or contracts for
ships for the Japanese navy. We may
sympathize with all these gentlemen in
their disappointment, and especially with
the Coast firm, which has given 80 many
and such convincing proofs Of its ability
TO buld fnst-class war vessels, but at
the same time we think 1t simple mat
ter TO underutand Japan's position.
In the first plaee Japan Is more inter-
eJsed just now in the development Of her
manufacturing industries than In the
strengthening OF her navy. She sees no
imminent danger OF a foreign war. Even
II Russia should become importunate in
her demands, Ut would pay Japan better
to make certain concessions and even to
surrender some of the advantages wrest-
ed from China than to enter into a con-
hict with first-class European power.
When to this Is added the fact that un-
der no conditions could war ships be
built TO- Japan which could be available
under two years or possibly three, It is
easy to see why Japan has declined 10
accept the offers made her, however
tempting they inlay have been.
But there Is a stil stronger and better
reason for Japan's course in this matter.
Unless every indication Is fallaclous,
Japan Is making ready to build and
equip her warsIhdps for herself. There
Is no concelvajbce reason why the indus
trial skill and adaptabillty of the Japa-
nese should not be devoted In part to
the creation OF ships Of war as weA as to
other branches of mechanical industry
