THE POWER OF OPPONENTS.

Delegate Wilcox has returned from
his first tour of duty in Washington
with practically nothing dose, but to-
days convention shows that those
banking on his loss Of prestige in his
party have some mighty hard work
before them in breaking down that hold
he has hitherto had. Distasteful
though it may be Republicans must
admit that Wilcox is a spell binder OF
no mean order. He carries the crowd
with him, makes issues of his own and
in his peculiar way convinces his hear
ers that what he presents are real is
sues. By cutting off the Republican
tail to their kite the Home Rulers have
cut OFF from any prospect of coopera-
ton with the Republicans and present
indications are that II any combination
Is made. ii will be with the Democrats;
the Dole issue Is to be put to the front
and kept there; county and municipal
government will furnish one of the
leading war cries; in fact 1t is the same
old fight over again with Wilcox
strengthened by the cooperation Of the
younger element OF which Prince Cupid
and Wise are recognized leaders.
Republicans can gain nothing, par
ticularly at this time when the cam
paign is in the formative period, in

many Republicans are playing thc
ostrich, comforting themselves with the
pleasant thought that WilCoXs political
power has gone, resting easy on the
self-satisfied idea that all the Republi
cans have to do is wait for the cOLf en-
tons. nominate the candidates anC
sweep the boards without eXtraordi
nary effort. If the Republicans are Il
win, the party must institute tho
strongest and most forcible educationa
campaign that has ever been known In
these Islands and II must begin early
Ii must meet issues squarely, man
fully; it must evade nothing, at the
same time forcing the real issue OF com
petent representation to the front. Gov
ernor Dole is an issue in the minds o.
many voters and the party cannot at
ford to go into the campaign without {
positive declaration on his admiAis
tration. County and municipal govern
ment is a leading issue and must b.
handled without qualification to attrac
the confidence Of the voters.
There is work ahead Of no mean or

defeat unless 1t arouses from its lethar

II is a notable fact that the majority
of the men who have given the best
days OF their life to public affairs are
poor. There is no money in serving
public interests honestly. Govern.

There are notable exceptions to this
rule, but the Congressman who has
made money through his Office never
holds his seat long enough to furnish
an example Of how to make money ID

of securing election to the Senate OF

lead toward that end must be helped

COLLEGE MEN AND LITERATURE.
Many Authors who Cannot Claim an
Alma Mater.

From Scribner's Magazine.
OF the so-called Knickerbocker writ
ers. Irving prepared for Columbia, but
did not enter. Cooper entered Yale
and was expelled. Bryant spent year
at Williams and did not care to COM
plete his course. OF the New England
men of letters who took over the SUI
premacy from the New Workers. the
majority were graduates of Harvard,
although two of the most distinguish
ed are to be credited to Bowdoin. When
this most important group in the his
tory of American letters left the scene
one by one, the men who came for
ward to take their places, and who are
now the foremost figures of our litera-
ture, are most of them Southerners
and Westerners. Very few of them are
from New England or New York; and
very few of them are college graduates.
But the younger men of the genera
ton now advancing are most of them
men who have enjoyed the early ad-
vantage of college training. In other
words, the most prominent American
authors of the present day who hap
pen to be over so years of age are-by
a large majority-not college-bred men,
whereas it is from the colleges that
have come many of the most promising
of the American men of letters who
have not yet attained the dignity OF
half a century.
Perhaps the explanation of this four
fold alienation in the brief history of
American literature is not far to seek.
In the very beginning a college educa-
ton was hard to get. and often was
hardly worth the having. Then in
time, with the settling of the country,
the advance of our civilization, and the
improvement in our educational facil-
tiles, there came to the front a group
of men trained in the humanities and
ready to supply to a new people the
olden culture and the classical tradi-
ton. But the land kept on expanding
and its population having crossed the
great river and the great plains and
the great mountains, and pushed ON
to the Pacific coast, a new generation
thrust themselves forward, in whom
native ability was abundant, and who
applied exact observation and large
vision to the wealth Of new material
displayed on every hand. Now at last
the conditions seem to be becoming a
little too complicated either for the
academic artist or for the gifted stu
dent of life: and this is the reason
why some of the best of the younger
men are seeking to combine in mea-
sure the qualities of the successive
groups of their predecessors.

serve stores replenished by the cases
which are constantly sent from the
factory. Business is lively in these
vodka shops. The door admits a never
ending stream of customers during
hours. The shops are closed at
night, and open only for short time
on holidays. Some of those who enter
are laden with empty bottles, and thus
get the price discounted on their next
supply; some go away like John Gilpin,
with a huge bottle on either side, while
others pass over six kopecs, carry
their small measure of vodka outside
where they knock the cork out, with
a blow, swallow the contents at a
gulp. and then return with the bottle
for more, paying only four kopecs this
time. But when man is actually
drunk, the shopkeeper is not allowed
to sell him any liquor, and there is no
place in the shops where the customer
may sit down; to drink so much as a
drop on the premises is absolutely for
hidden. In connection with these shops
there are some interesting facts rela-
tive to the government policy in run
ming the monopoly. The conditions at
tached to the part of shopkeeper are
such that well-educated, self-respect-
ing men and women can undertake the
work. Out of the $50 shops in ST. Pc

to 300 roubles a year. This is good pay

of these women were of good family,
and l talked with one who was very
intelligent, and spoke fiuently in
French. None of the many women in
this employment has ever taken a ko-
pee from the monopoly, whereas there
has been considerable loss through the
dishonesty of men employees. Therefore
women are generally preferred. In the
country shops the sum total of all the
monopoly shops is about 1900. the
Keepers are mostly men. 1t is necessary
to maintain 1000 collectors, who are
principally from the peasant class, to
gather in the accounts and the money
received in the shops and from
licensed traktirs.
