THE TRUTH OF QUO VADIS.'

1t is creditable to the taste of Ameri-
can readers that while in England put
1000 copies of "Quo Vadis" have been
sold as yet, in America over 1oU,Uo
copies have been disposed of, and the
sale is still on. The book has passed it
self far beyond the pale of advertising
that any mention of it would give. 1t is
a modern classic, so to speak. 1t is work
ing a distinct influence, and therefore
must be considered as such. 1t is a seri-
Gus book and unlike many another novel,
it can not be satirized, cannot be dra-
matized and will never be burlesqued or
abridged.
The volume indeed is SO serious a work
and so far from being q novel in the
usual acceptation, that the surprise is it
should be so widely and eagerly read by
people not usually won over to such ro-
mances. What does this reading indi-
cate? Renewed interest in the suffer
ings and heroism of the early Christ
ians? Awakened love for revelations of
social and political life in the Rome of
Nero? Perhaps both. But tens of thou
sands have read the book and tens Of
thousands more will read IL, whose
knowledge of ancient history is exceed
ingly limited or a blank, and these and
other ten thousands read it who have
no faith in Christian dogmas, no belief
in Christian faith.
We must ascribe then something OF
the reading attractiveness Of such
| book at this time to love for the ro-
mantle, admiration for the heroic and to
mere curiosity-but its influence is not
therefore the less. In view of such wide
reading as is given to the remarkable
work of Sienkiewicz, criticism of 1t such
as is made by Professor Harry T. Peck,
latin Professor in Columbia University,
and editor of Well known classical die
tioilary, becomes of Importance. For 1t
is exceedingly desirable to have the
minds of general readers informed upon
two essential points. namely. whether
Quo Vadis'' is historically correct and
whether the picture of social life in
Rome at its period is reasonably ac-
eurate.
| Whenever a book is widely read that is
ca pable of molding opinion and inform
ing the reading mind. it is matter of
very great importance that the people
should be instructed as TO whether the
volume is error or fairly true. Suppose
that such work as Uncle Toms
Cabin" had been radically false. what q
powerful factor for evil it would have
been, appealing as if did to the tenderest
sympathies and most easily awakened
emotions.
| Professor Peck's review of Quo Va
dis in the New York Times" therefore
is timely and valuable 1t is analy-
teal, judicial and unimpassioned 1t
may be summed up as follows. Histor-
ically the book is reasonably accurate.

The effect Of the tariff policy Of this
Government upon the silk industry is
very marked. Home manufacture has
been so encouraged that the French
have realized that their business OF
sending silk to this country is in jeop-
ardy. The result is that they are
coming over to manufacture here. One
Lyons firm has already secured ground
for plant, and the machinery Is now
upon the ground. But American work.
men are to be employed at the looms,
and only French skilled operatives
enough to head the manufacturing de-

The New York Evening Post" is no
friend of the Dingley bill. Onl the con-
trary, it is its inveterate and consistent
enemy. 1t should be pretty good au-
thority, when it saws:
We have said more than once that
neither the Dingiey tariff nor any other
tariff is answerable for the present re-
'ductions of wages in New England. We
have seen hints in the cotton trade jour
nal that one cause of the trouble is that
New England manufacturers have not
generally kept up with modern improve
nents in machinery and processes. Some
few have done so, and these are still
able to make a profit without reducing
wages. Those who have relied on the
tariff rather than on their own wits, are
now left in the lurch. They have not
kept up with the worlds procession; 80
they are now left in the rear and are
taking it out of their help"
However, the Post" thinks that the
tariff bill made the New Englanders
lazy, led them to reply more upon pro-
tective legislation than energy, and to
close their eyes to changes going on In
the manufacturing interests and locali-
ties of the United States.

WILLIAM e. GLADSTONE.
The Great Statesman and Ex-Pre-

each side of it. and he claimed the sole
use of the waters as they flow through
the land. because they are upon his
land; likewise he claimed the right to
take the fish in the stream on his land.
and to exclude others from doing so.
The lumber company contested these
claims and in the lower courts Mr. de
Camp won. The case then went the
round of the upper courts, and now
the last court of resort, the Court OF
Appeals, has also affirmed his claims,
and he is in undisputed ownership of
the creek and it's waters, and the lum
decision will apply to the waters of the
other branches of the Moose, which are
also used for numbering purposes, and
also to Canada Creek, and all the log
ging streams of the Adirondack region.
This puts a stop to denuding the hills
except where there are lines of logging
railway 70 carry the logs to the mills
below. The New York papers say
IuaL the decision OF the courts Is rec
ognized as just, and there is little re-
greet expressed or felt over the outcome.
But there is sympathy for the lumber
men that the law cannot be SO far made
yielding as TO permit the vast guam
tity of logs already cut to be fioated
down from the great forest regions.
All these are doomed to decay now,
and such cut groups are so numerous
as to involve some millions of money.
But the decision, must stand, for it is
the law AS interpreted by the New
York courts. that streams not pub
lie highways. and which flow through
private lands and farms. are the prop
erty of the owners of the lands, as
also is the right to occupy them for
any purpose, such as angling, rafting.
boating, etc. The decision hits thou
sands of fishermen, and summer cutters
who have for years been accustomed to
go upon any lands they pleased to fish
in streams flowing from beyond the
private lands but through them. The
remedy is two old-secure the consent
of the owner of the land, or promote
legislation that will enable the State
to acquire forest lands and throw them
open to the uses of all the people under
proper regulations.

A case has just been decided in New

TO have a wonderful influence upon
numbering in the Adirondack and other

The German Government has so far
receded from it's arbitrary decree ex-
Guiding American fresh fruits as to ad-
NIT the consignments now at the
frontier. It is clear that Germany
did not make its order of exclusion for
fear OF introduction of insect pests. Had
that been it's reason it would have
given notice in time to have prevented
shipments being made, and consequent
loss to innocent people. II Germany
insists upon it's order, which 1t is now
understood includes fruits of all con-
ditions, thus embracing dried fruits, 1t
will become the American Government
to retaliate sufficiently to bring Ger
many to a realizing sense OF Its folly.
This Government will never raise a
word OF exception to any investigation
and inspection Of fruit shipments at
the German border, nor to the exclusion
of infected fruits or packages. But 1t
should, as it does object firmly to a
sweeping and discriminating order
such as that already made.

The Chicago Record" contends that
the deficit in the Postal Department is
a discredit upon the Government OPP
Grafton of that enterprise. Why so? The
scheme of the postal service never con-
templated a profit. In fact that there
would be a deficit or loss was well I'M
derstood when it was provided that
mail package should be carried 10000
charge made against C. D., whose pack
age is carried but one mile. The SER

making, but it will not come about
until the country is better provided with
facilities for carriage of the mails to all
sections which the law contemplates
shall be served, no matter how sparse
the population and distant the spot
from commercial centers. But that the
deficit can be greatly reduced, and the
porting basis very early, is true What
We need to do Is to cut off three-fifths'
part Of the enormous tonnage Of free
matter; to cut out the device by which
books pass through the mails as regular
magazine issues; to require every de-
partment of Government to pay for use
of the postal service the same as any
other business concerns, instead Of
good-szed portion Of departmental cost
being saddled upon the Postal Depart
ment; to greatly restrict the use of the
mails for matter ranking as second
