SELMA LAGERLoF.
Kind Words for the Popular Swed.
ish Writer.

ish Writer.
A well known critic, referring to Sci.
ma Lagerlof's recent work, from a
Swedish Homestead" translated by
Jessie Broctiner, says:
1T has come to be pretty generally
recognized, both in her own country
and abroad, that Selma Lagerlof is the
most promising Of the young genera
ton Of Swedish writer's. In this coun-
try lat least, she needs no special en-
comium, for her writings have all Of
them won quick recognition for then
simplicity Of style and their unique, sa-
ga-like quality of thought. Her best
work. however, lies in the direction Of
the short story, rather than in long
and sustained effort, and even her
Costa Berling," which first brought
her into notice, has the effect Of col
lection Of old-time sagas rather than Of
a single story. This new volume is a
collection Of sixteen stories, legends
and the like, many Of which have APP
peared in the Idun and other Swedish
periodicals during the past two years..

The Decline OF Cycling.

The bicycle is passing. One has only
striking contrast in the amount of
bicycle riding done. Then the wheel
YVES everywhere on our city streets and
country roads. Nearly all the young
people and many of the older ones
rode them, and the wheeling fever was
at its height. Now. on Augusta
streets. tor instance. there is not one
wheel seen where there We're then half
dozen or a dozen. and il is said TO
be the same everywhere. In a recent
interview a leading bicycle manu-
facturer says that cycling has declined
- per cent. since 1897; that bicycle
racing is stagnant, Notwithstanding
! the Introduction Of motor pacing, and
that professional riders who once
earned thousands of dollars year are
now borrowing money right and left;
| that whereas valuable prizes We're
offered five years ago. today the
racers dit iIol olltltd even iCdtIiNt
medals: that from 1895 to 1898. in
elusive. 1900. coo bicycles We're manu-
| featured and sold here. but that this
| year probably not more than 100000
will be sottt: that even as a paStime
| cycling is now regarded indifferently
| by the upper ten from which ele
ment much business has been derived
in past years: that the bicycle, in
| short is going out of style.
No doubt the spread of golf and
Tho advent of the automobile have de-
| creased the popularity of the wheel
among the so-called upper ten who
set the fashion. But among the mid
die classes it is the familiar story Of
! toy. to he played with at first and then
| thrown aside. Motor pacing has hurt
| rather than helped bicycle racing. but
| since it is sort of an appeal to hysteria
| it draws large crowds. Abroad as
| cycles has fallen off and caused a great
decrease in the output of the American
factories. But the wheel came to stay;
it is more than a fad, and while its use
has suffered a great decline i'll all
sections it viii not wholly disappear
Tens of thousands will continue to use
it az healthful excr else and others
as a convenience in locomotion. Once
it Was feared it would drive the horse
out OF business but the fear was as
groundl. IS IS is that now occasionally
held as regards the automobile. For
pleasure and exercise and quick
travelling over good roads the wheel
viii continue to be used. And the
work which the wheel has done in the
cause of good roads alone has justified
IFS existence many times over.

!. 4 Republican Task Outlined.

4 In this weeks issue If tho Indepen-
dent. ex-senator Chandler of New
Hampshire gives his ideas of the work
that is laid out for the Republican
party in the immediate future As
usual ne is forceful and aggressive
and handles his theme without mincinS
matters His intense hostility to
great corporations has often been man.
ifested in the past and is much in
evidence in this article. although Moth
ing radical or Incorporate is urged.
1t is not against corporations as such
that he would wage war, but he sees in
the great combinations of corpora
tons Il danger to competition and to
the wages of labor. To the state
LEGISLATURES rather than to Congress
ton monopolies. and insists that the
people have the remedy in their own
hands and have no right to complain.
AS 10 the political aspect of the case
lie says this:
This is the new work for the Re-
publican party. worthy of its reputa-
ton 1t has abolished slavery. given to
every settler Il farm on our public
lands: established manhood suffrage
throughout the nation. saved the Union
in civil war: liberated two races in
cuba and the Orient: and it will con-
t1n
and not degenerate into a mere en-
shaved organization owned by the
money power of America and Europe.
The Democratic party will do moth
ing helpful. Its first purpose at the
South is to suppress the votes OF two
millions of citizens entitled to suffrage
under the fifteenth amendment of the
constitution. It's first purpose at the
MOI IN is TO keep in power in New York
city corrupt political organiZati ton
with $50. 900 900 of annual income. In
ciUentally it seeks to ruin our manu-
featuring industries by destroying the
American tariff system. Some OF its
leaders make loud professions of de
sire To protect the masses from the OPP
pres. ions of capital. But they say this
must be done by extreme measures
tending to reputation, socialism ana
anarchy. Wherever locally the Re
publican party is corrupt il finds no
difficulty in holding its power by buy
ing up local Democratic leaders. The
Democratic party has no fixed prnci
pies generally concurred in by its
members: has lost the confidence of the
country: has no real strength except
at the South through the suppression
there of legal votes: and has today no
prospect of obtaining power to any
considerable extent at the North or in
the national government-unless the
Republican party seeks its own des-
uuction by failing to do it new duty
in q wise. careful. conservative but ef
fcCtive way-the duty of maintaining
competition in commerce and manu-
features against the unfair demands of
aggregated capital, and in protecting

ncoessaries of life and from oppres
