The Lane that Had No Turning.

Since adventuring into Egyptin quest
of the raw material OF which fiction is
made, Mr.. Gilbert Parker's Canadian
fields have been lying fallow. He returns
to them, however, with new vigor, and
even fuller power; and the serial which
he has just completed finds him at the
highest dramatic level to which he has
yet attained.
The Lane that Had No Turning is re-
markable for its honest strength
thorough originality, and absorbing
interest. The scene Of the story is
Pontiac (whither Valmond came), and
the period the middle fifties. The lead
ing characters are Madelinette, a famous
singer, and her husband, Seignior oi
Pontiac. for whom she dares all and
risks all. The story gains interest as il
progresses and concludes with striking
and wholly unexpected finale.
The Lane that Had No Turning will
begin in THE SATURDAY EVENING Posi-
for September 20, and run through five
numbers.

Southern States were In rebellion

part in the election.
There have been three presidents
who failed to receive a popular pln-
rality. In 1924 Adams received
50,551 votes less than Jackson. In
1876 Hayes became president
though the popular plurality against
him was 52,224. In 1888 Cleve-
land polled 95,534 moro votes than
Harrison, but lost the electoral COL

And tie the long strings in knot meath

Then claim from her red lips kiss, and

For kissing in old days was never sin.

The New Battle of Democracy.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The reelection of President Mckinley
in the face of the general condemnation
of his policy is the fullest justification
of the battle the democracy has made in
defense of popular rights--a battle that
begins anew today and will continue
until it is won.
The enormous concentration of capital
under corporate control has become the
dominant power in this country. Itcon-
trolls our legislatures; it controls our
elections. Through its countless chan
nels of influence, by corruption, intimi-
dation and misrepresentation of every
kind, it has compelled the election of its
chosen candidates against the deliberate
judgement of American people.
This is the solemn truth which the
people have to face today. Mr.. McKin-
ley's recollection is not sign of popular
approval. That he does not command,
as candid republicans themselves will ad-
nit. Disguise it under whatever name,
it is the achievement Of the money power
alone, that has tyranniaed over the pops
ular Judgment and, whether by fair
means of by foul, has prevented the free
expression Of the popular will.
Imperialism in government goes hand
in hand with this tyranny of money,
that finds expression in the trusts. The
people have not approved; they have
been overawed. The false cry of danger
to "business interests" has terrified and
coerced men against their Judgment.
against their interest, against their con-
vlctions of ofprinciple, and the concentrat-
ed power of a great political organization
controlled and guided in tho interest Of
great political organization controlled
and guided in the interest of the few
against the many has prevailed against
the higher aspirations Of American
democracy.
Serious as this situation is, the patriot
will face it with fresh hope. The cam
paign of misrepresentation and false pre-
tense is ended. The new campaign be-
gins today, in which the truth will pre-
vail. 1t will not be denied that thousands
voted for Mckinley Tuesday who are
earnestly opposed to the conduct OF his
administration and to the policy, the
tendencies and the influences he repre-
sents, yet whose Judgment was overbornt
by fictitious fears of dangers they were
told might come from change Of pow
er. Such fears can no longer be appeal
cd to. The republican party is again put
on trial before the people, and If it per
sist in its contempt for constitutions
restraints, it must pass swiftly to Its owr
destruction.
! The democratic party in Philadelphia
and in Pennsylvania takes up the chal-
lenge and begins the fight today. Tht
city is to be redeemed from the contro
Of banded robbers; the state Is TO bc re-
deemed from the power Of corrup
machine; the principles Of American
liberty are to be again proclaimed az th'
basis Of our national prosperity. Releas'
