English general, Howe, holds our in-
terest from the first;-s good soldier a
good lover. Mrs. Meredith becomes,
by experience of the fortunes of war;
less rigid, more tender, but all through
a person of backbone. We watch the
gymnastics of Joe Bagby and Esquire
Hannion, the rival turncoats, with
mingled scorn and diamusement, and are
glad Mr.. Ford, the author, sees they
receive their just deserts. Poor clout-

N1CW the dramatic season is with
us again, and with us again the
drama tized novel. If all the
drama tized novels were equal to the
one under consideration in this article
we should have no quarrel with them !;
we affirm we would, welcome them back
as gladly as we do our old friends, of
the stage from their summerings on
mountain side and seashore, al ranch
and country place. But few indeed are
the novels that, not only for stage pur-
poses but for other qualities, and those
sterling qualities, can compare with
Janice Meredith.
America has gone wild over it, and
no wonder, either. One realizes as one
reads it that America has history to
be proud of, though it date back not
many hundred years; one seems to be-
come acquaint for the first time
with 1.-The true George Washington;
one is able to sympat thize with both

She is half afraid, much interested
in him, a dangerous condition for q
proud maid, but will not consider an
entanglement with a bondservant. In
moment of anger he tells her her
family and pedigree are nothing COM
pared with his, that his great-grand-
fla ther was king.
But war, as well as love, is in the air,
ard the bondservant, refused by his
master the purchase of his freedom,
spends his leisure drilling the militia
on the village green, and at last runs
away, obtains an interview at head
quarters with Washington, conveys to
him news of much Importance. and is
made an aid to the commander. He
is with Washington when New York
is abandoned, when the army met de-
feat after defeat, when hundred after
hundred of men desert, when officers
and members of congress work for the
chiefs fall and failure; with him that
snowy Christmas night he gets his
2,4C0 men across the Delaware and
marches them nine miles to Trenton;
with him the terrible winter of Valley

him when success is won at York

is not politician; he has no personal
interests in any candidate, This is
what he says: "The success of the Re-
publican party means simply that the
present commercial development will
continue along clear and stable lines,
and it is recognized here that the tri-
umph Of Bryanism means commercial
ard financial disaster. the extent of
wh,5h would be incalculable. In short,
all of the upbuildlng, the progress, the
ollLifcation and the financial and
eol. merclal rehabilitation of the past
four years would be undermined to
an extent, from which it would take
the country years to emerge"
WHAT EXPERIENCE TEACHES.
l do not know any statement of the
case that is stronger and truer than
shis. 1t is evident TO every keen and
practiced observer, who looks the facts
n the face, that business conditions
today are much as they were in 1892,
when General Harrison was defeated
and the Democrats came into power
and involved the country in the direst
financial calamity.
We have the lesson and example of
1892 before us. Does any sane man
want this phase of our history to re-
;ten1fo II n thot n
experience and the ruin which follow
ed Democratic victory in 1892 ought to
be enough to satisfy the most restless
and inquiring spirits. I do not think
the people Of this country are quite
ready for another period of bankrupt
cy. We have had enough of those
days of hard times, of closed mills, of
paralyzed industries, of fluctuating
currency, of squeezed salaries, of re-
duced wages, of multiplying mortgages
and lost investments.
We do not want to sacrifice what we
have gained throught President Nc
Kinley's able administration, stable fl
narcial policy and superb commercial
expansion. What man wants to go
backward four years? Still, should a
r7aicrity of our people desire to do
this, let them vote for Mr.. Bryan, and
II less than four months they will find
this country struggling in the throes
of financial disaster
In large measure the financial well
fare and prosperity of the civilized
"orld hangs upon the action of the
American voter at the polls in Novem-
her next. If Mr.. Bryan is elected we
will drag Europe down with us in
ccmmon financial ruin, and of this we
may be sure the greater, the deeper,
the mort general the depression, the
longer, the harder and more painful
will be the time of recuperaton.
Never before has the American vot-
er had resting on his judgment, on his
heart, and on his conscience, a heav-
Ter responsibility than that which con-
fronts him today. He will vote for
TIE veal or the woe of himself and all
civilized mankind, and he should re-
member that if he votes for President
Mckinley, he will vote for progress,
for prosperity, for a long continuance
of manifold comforts, advantages and
joys which accompany stable condi
tions, sound economic views and bril-
liant administration of governmental
affairs.
