THE YOUNG WRITER'S DAY.
A Time When the Unknown Writer Is
Likely to Meet with Welcome.

Janet Glider, in New York World.
These are great days for the young
writer, or the beginner in literature, be ne
or she young or old. Time was when one
had 20 be a well-known author to get
book published. This sounds like an impos-
sbllity but there Is ,b no doubt r put tRas
looked at askance. To-day he is having
his innings. Rather the one author with
his first book than the ninety and nine
with a long list behind them.
The publisher accepts the author with
the esta blished reputation. but he sets his
teeth when it comes TO signing the con-
tract The man with the established repu
tation can make his own terms and lucky
the publisher who can make a dollar out
of him. WHY then does he take his book?
1t looks we'll on his list and attracts the
young author 1t is the latter that re
takes to his heart and gives glorious wei
come If there is any go in his book he
spends money like water TO advertise him.
The old author takes all the money there
is and leaves nothing for advertising.

tablshed writer my desk said tn.

Then he gets to be like the others.
There's nothing in him for the publishers.
and we continue our search for new blood"
There never was much fiction pub
lished az within the past year or two. The
most # II runs in the direction of the his
torica, novel, and yet there are other
branches of fiction that have been among
the record breakers. No historical novel
has yet reached the sales of David Har-
um," and yet stories of old Virginia or old
France continue TO set the pace for the new
writer's, and. indeed, for some of the old.
HAS the historical novel come to stay"
Is constantly asked. Some of those -
whom this question is prOpounded answer
NO without hesitation. ! should say that
1t depends altogether upon the novel. If it
is a good story it will sell for that rea-
son; IL it is a bad story-not interesting
to the average reader. l mean-that it is
founded on so-called history will not make
il sell.
A novel on any subject under the sun, If
Ii is what the public wants. will have a
big sale No matter what its subject may
be- If the public does not want 1t IL will not
have 1t at any price. There are some pub
fishers who do not believe this and they
initiate success all along the line Histor-
ical novels pour from the press and so do
novels of the David Harum" sort. Some
succeed others fail. Their success or fail
ure, however. depends upon the public.

STEEL TRUST AND LABOR.


w. G. Nicholas, in New York Telegraph
In trying to commit the big steel COM
pany TO a policy Of aggressive antag-
onism to organized labor 1t would appear
that the local bosses at Mckeesport ex-
ceeded their authority. The same mis-
take was made by the subchief of Jersey
Central In the early stages of the con-
troversy with the employees of that COM
pany.
-hese and other subordinates fell into
the error Of thinking that because the
proper to formally recognize labor by
going to bed with the chiefs of the sew
eral labor clans or by inviting them to
come into the parlor and make themselves
at home, the cue is given TO be offensive
and slap trades unionism in the face when
ever the chance offers.
is taking more time than it should to
impress on the superintendent and fore
men that because j. Pierpont Morgan and
Judge Gary have not fallen the necks
of the men who for the moment happen
to represent the several organizations of
workingmen, they nave any right to as
sumo that the attitude of the management
OF the big combine is going TO be one of
hostility toward labor.
Nothing has yes been said or done by any
one in a commanding position in the COM
bine to suggest in the remotest degree the
adoption of a policy of hostility or of a
determination to place distractions in the
way of workingmen combining for lawful
purposes.
The minor bosses of the Steel combine
have yet to learn that there is a wide diff
ference between recognizing organized
labor. as the term is understood In indus
trial circles. and in keeping hands off and
letting tie men alone and free TO exercise
their right to form themselves into associa-
tons.
The question of recognition will come
along in its proper way and in good time,
no doubt about that The pace is swift
enough TO suit the most intense. Pending
the arrival of the moment for action on
that question the steel management is
lying quiet and keeping it's own counsel,
thereby following the example of Lincoln,
who made it point never to cross a river
until he got TO il.
Gradually the purposes of the steel man.
agement to steer clear of labor complica-
tions are becoming clear TO the working
men, to the general public and to the specu-
lators. Fine judgment and good temper
will be necessary in the adjustment of the
questions that must be constantly arising
in a complex business requiring the serv
ices of nearly 1900 men earning 100000 a
day.
1t is to command the kind of talent re-
quisite to the proper handling of the deli
cate phases of an ever shifting situation
that 100000 salaries are paid by the man or
men in control of the destines of the mon
ster combination. Bullheadedness and
courage can be hired much cheaper. Other
and finer qualities plus courage are needed
for the safe maneuvring of large craft in
strange waters.

ders for the national game in the in
termountain country It is unneces-
sary to state that the Oregon Short
Line came in for a great amount
Of censUre by the disgruntled fans,
who blame the downfall Of the league
to that corporation.
President CritchlOw was besieged by
fnxious inquiries from baseball en-
r1usiasts if something could not yet be
done 10 maintain the organization and
replied that the clubs would not stand
for what they considered exorbitant
rates. and he was poweTIess to do any
thing more
Several Of the directors Of the Salt
Lake club were interviewed and they
calmly admitted that the game was
up so far as Salt Lake was concerned.
The question Of a Utah league between
Ogden. Salt Lake and Provo, Logan or
Park City. is not TO be considered, say
the directors. The latter towns could
not possibly support a frst-class ball
team It has been tried under the
most favorable circumstances and has
proven a failure Ogden and Salt Lake
fairs would never supCost ''tinpan"

A Colorado Utah league is not looked
upon with much favor. 1t is claimed
