does, but it is likely that the literary in
vestigator will find that the circulation of
certain books of the serious class. as
shown by records OF bookshop and public
libraries, is fairly extensive. There Is
reason to think, for instance, that there
has been within the last year or two
general ''reading-up" on Spanish history,
and quite recently on South African affairs.
There is said to be steady and increasing
demand for popular science" literature,
as we'll as more technical works on
scientific topics. The rising generation is
informing itself the subjects of electric
ity, mechanics, etc. In pure literature,
two publications of last year. namely. the
Browning Letters" and the Stevenson
Letters" have had many readers. not
withstanding the fact that the field for
them is comparatively small. The class
which appreciates the best and finest in
literature will never be that which makes
book popular in the sense of giving it a
large circulation, but in this day of much
reading the circle which recognizes the
best must constantly grow wider. The re-
suits of the literary monthly's inquiry will
be looked for with interest.

There has been no more forcible and
eloquent presentation of the Philippines
question and of the interests and duty
of the United States IN the premises than
that made by Hon. Charles DENLY in his
address before the Amerfcan-Asiatic Asso-
citation in New York, Friday night. Mr..
Denby's long residence in China as United
States minister, his familiarity with ORR
entail politics and trade and his recent
service as a member of the Philippines
commission. give unusual weight to his
views. Believing as he does that the world
is about entering on a new era Of trade
expansion he cannot see why the United
States should not avail itself of the oppor-
tunity to participate in that expansion and
gain for its people a share of the benefits
which all other nations are reaching after
with fewer advantages and claims than
we have. His views are evidently based
on knowledge, and were expressed in
forcible and patriotic manner. Col DENLY,
by the way, is old-time resident and
still a citizen of Indiana, and though he
has been out of the country many years
his address shows that he is still a thor
ough American of the progressive school.

INDEPENDENT AND PARTY EDITORS.

At the banquet of the Indianapolis Press
Club, the past week, a member who was
called upon to speak of the transccndent
virtues of what is called independent
Journalism, surprised all of his listeners
by declaring that 1t required less ability
to write the editorials of an independent
paper than to render a similar service for
what he alluded to as the party paper
He explained his statement by saying that
it required greater adroitness to advocate
or defend party policy and action than
1t does to render an Independent opinion.
Very naturally this opinion is based upon
the assumption that there is more to de-
than there is TO commend. There are few
papers which advocate government by par
ties that do not frequently criticise meth
DDS and the conduct of men who assume
to be leaders. Those who control such
papers are wont to consult men of ex-
perience as TO the course to be pursued.
They remember the words of a wise man
uttered many years ago that Gin a multi
tude OF counselors there is safety''-that
the opinion OF number of men holding
the same general views regarding govern
ment is quite as sure TO be right and just
as that OF one individual, however we'll
informed and brilliant.
The real difference between the opin-
ions of party and Independent papers is
that the former are based upon the con-
viction that through parties alone any sort
OF government can be secured, while the
latter often give the impression that If
parties are not altogether evil those who
direct them are TO be viewed with suspi-
cion, If not distrust. For instance. the
editorial page of a paper published In a
large city contained. in three days. about
twenty editorial articles. sixteen of which
were criticisms impugning not only the
judgments of men in public life. but their
motives. Those who read such articles and
accept them as truth will come in a short
time, 10 have no faith in anything but the
fault finding and imputations of the ed
itorial writer, and TO believe that the coun-
try Is going to destruction at a rapid gait
The pessimism OF one of the ablest inde-
pendent editors in the country has. it

paper 10 dispense with his services. Dur

A LITERARY INVESTIGATION.

One Of the literary monthlies is about to
Investigate the sales of books with a view
to ascertaining whether or not fiction does
really predominant. There can be no doubt
that the question will be answered in the
affirmative, for ii is certainly the case that
most people read novels. and many read no
other class of books. but IL is, nevertheless.
a matter worth looking into. While the
inquiry will unquestionably show that
fiction is in the greatest demand. 1t will
bring out the fact that many other kinds
of books are also widely read. With all
the talk about fiction this fact has been
somewhat obscured. and it is as we'll to re-
mind those who read novels exclusively
that there are other classes of readable
literature, and that they are missing a
good deal when they ignore it. A glance
over the publishers catalogues shows their
pages by no means filled with fiction--his-
tory biography. travels. essays and mis-
cellaneous literature taking a liberal share
of space. Publishers. being purely COM
mercial fraternity, cater to public taste.

works IL they were not reasonably sure of

NO OSTRICH RACE.
Several Reasons for Declaring the
Texas story Incorrect.

New York Tribune.
We knew IL. There was no truth in the
report that Mr.. Bryan and Ex-Governor
Hogg, of Texas, had decided to race each
other mounted on two able bodied ostriches
which the Ex-Governor owns. The story
seemed to us to be incredible on it's face.
Not that there is anything improper per
Sc in ostrich riding. The ostrich is USE
full and interesting. If not particularly
noble bird. 1t tail feathers are most grace
full. its power of digestion is enormous,
and as Splinter we believe IL has an en-
viable record. In regard to its habit of
hiding its head I'm the sand under the sup
position that its whole body is hid, TO
which invidious reference is often made
we would ask the cocksure critics why
they assume an explanation Of the trans
action that is discreditable TO the os-
trich? As the poet remarks:
Who can tell what ostrich thinks
AS he sits on the sands and blinks and
blinks?"
At any rate. the ostrich is a good. honest
bird. and not even Mr.. Bryan need feel
ashamed to be associated with II. Indeed,
we are sure that he himself entertafns
that view of the ostrich.
The question, however, is not what Mr.
Bryan thinks Of the ostrich, but what
the ostrich thinks of Mr.. Bryan. AS we
all know, the Democratic candidate for
the presidency says things In a magnetic
way. but we doubt IL he could persuade
even the most amiable ostrich to allow
itself to be ridden. OF course, Mr. BRYAN
would be cautious and conciliatory and
would exclaim, whoa. now. birdie." in his
most dulcet tones; but We don't believe
that birdie" would whoa" even for a
minute. And although Mr.. Bryan has
shown great skill In riding a hobby for
several years past. We don't think he would
be able TO ride an ostrich. even II, by any
piece OF good luck. be did succeed in
mounting IL. The chances are sixteen TO
one that he would be thrown.
But the chief reason for disbelieving the
story remains 10 be stated. To ride on the
back Of an ostrich would be. in effect.

independent paper was for long time a
serious embarrassment to the Lincoln ad-
ministration. In the second year of the
war its tone was changed. not because
there was any change In the Lincoln poll
icy, but because the man who controlled it
was persuaded that it was not for his in
terest to oppose the administration.
Perhaps the best feature of the indie
pendent press is that, except in a general
fault.finding, its members are not agreed
upon any line of reform. On the Philip
pine issue they range all the way from the
most rabid opponent who rejects all facts,
to the advocate of the holding of the new
possessions. That is independence: but
what would it become If the representatives
Of these differing opinions should be called
upon to agree upon a policy? Would not
such a gathering be a babel of intellect?
Often the independent paper sustains a
public official through years. defending
him against all charges. carefully covering
all alleged blemishes with the whitest sur
faces. Suddenly, without any apparent
cause, II turns about and covers Its former
idol with stripes of red and blotches Of
black. When seeking circulation, one
class of independent papers seems to at
tempt to please both sides. For instance,
one of these papers printed a number of
articles urging the passage OF the currency
bill and later an article appeared declaring
the era of prosperity was not due to any
decision of the country regarding it's
money. but came because good and bad
times alternate, and 1t was the time for
prosperity TO begin in 1897. Such sudden
changes and such balancing of opinions
lead to belief that 1t must be much more
difficult to be independent journalist
than steady-going worker on a paper
that holds sincere allegiance to a political
party.
