THE most POPULAR BOOKS.

neal writes to know what we con-
slider the ten best American novels
Of the dav. There are two ways
.of looking at this question. One
/ is by the actual sales, and the
other is according to the actual
merits of the books. Judged ac-
cording to the sales, the ten best
American books of today are
these:
Ben Hur. by Lew Wallace.
David Harum, by Edwin Noyes
Wescott.
Richard CarveI, by Winston
Churchill.
When Knighthood Was in
Flower, by Charles Major.
Janice Meredith, by James
Lane Allen.
The Hon. Peter Sterling, by P.
L. Ford.
To Have and to Hold, by Mary
Johnston.
Red Rock, by Thomas Nelson
Page.
Hugh Wynne, by s. Weir Nit
chelI.
These are the ten best selling
American novels, but we can pick
out ten other American stories
which are just as good and from
q literary standpoint ale in some
instances better. Every Ameri-
can Library should contain the
ten books we have mentioned, but
we Will venture to say that the
reader can obtain just as much
genuine satisfaction and pleasure
from the following ten.
Via Crucis, by Marion Craw-
ford.
The Damnation of Theron
Ware, by Herold Frederick.
Caleb West, by F. Hopkinson
Smith.
A Lady of Quality, by Mrs.
Burnett.
The Gentleman from Indiana,
by Booth Tarkinton.
The Market Place, by Harold
Frederic.
Prisoners of Hope, by Mary
Johnston.
The Black VOLTS Breed, by
Harris Dickson.
The Helpers,by Francis Lynde.
Red Blood and Blue, by Harris
Robertson.
The last book mentioned has
just been published, but it is fit
to rank with any one of the twen-
books we have named, and unless
we are very much mistaken is dcs-
tined to have a wide enduring po-
pularlty. The author of it is a
Tennessean, and the story is laid
in Tennessee, but circumstances
like this need not wrap our judg-
ment, or incline us to give credit
where it is not due.
The twenty books mentioned
were selected without regard to
authorship or geography; and it
is therefore very gratifying to find
that nine of them were written
by SOutherners, seven by North
erners, three by Westerners, and
one by a lady who was born in
England, but was reared in the
South.

and one that has helped more to
popularize this locality than yacht

is the predominant summer sport.

and have a yacht club with a
splendid house of their own.
Their splendid aft lirs and sue

What is 1t?

Behind the opposition that is
manifested in some quarters Of
Mississippi to the action of the
Democratic executive committee
of the State in ordering elections
for presidential electors there
must be some strong motive.
When a Democrat gets into
that heretical State when he is
afraid to trust the people, it is the
truth to say that he ceases to be a
Democrat in spirit, although bear
ing the honored title. The peo-
pie form a supreme tribunal; and
the voice Of the people the De
mocratic masses-is the voice of
widom and saving Judgment. Can
it be that it was purpOsed by tue
malcontents to manipulate a con-
vention in the interest Of a pesti-
ferrous minority, that political in
fucnce could be given Il clamo-
rous few in the Democracy Of the
State? It would so seem, for,
after applying earnest thought,We
can not conceive other reason for
the antagonism. 1t is suggestive
also that the opponents Of the
primary are principally of the fac
tion that was ingloriously de-
feated in a memorable struggle
last year. And-well, well leave
further observations for another
