violated the law that exiled his fam
lily from Its native soil by returning to
France and asking. as n private citi-
zen. TO be allowed to serve in the
French army as common soldier. SO
far. SO good. His compromise with
tho government. which allowed him to
accept expulsion from the French ter
ritory, has proved to be the beginning
Of career in which vacillation and
Weakness have ruined course that at
one time might have spelt success and
even triumph.
To most Frenchmen loyalism has
for long been but name and nothing
else. Seventy years have run since
Charles X. was driven from Paris.
and no king has held sway since 1913.
Many deputies have royalist sympa-
thies, but then they owe their seats
either to their own personal influence
or to their Conservative principles.
Many. on the other hand. who have
called themselves ndhcrcnts TO the re-
public. or even progressive Republi-
cans. are really Royalists at heart.
They would welcome any change
from tho present regime. but. unfor-
tunateiy for himself. the Due dor

France since he has become the rccog-
nircd representative OF the Leglti-

order, while II has not succeeded In

Mr. Campbell. lives in Prescott, Ari-
zona, and is general attorney for the
Santa Fe * Phoenix railway and the
Prescott & Eastern railroad. Formerly
he lived In Topeka. Kansas, and he Is
substantially product of the West.
Hence in describing western scenes and
western people he never touches n
false note. His westcrners live and
breathe in their natural atmosphere.
His book consists of one tolerably
long story. "A Western Colonel" and
nineteen shorter sketches of life and
scenes in Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado,
New Mexico and Arizona. The story
and sketches are alike Kaleidoscope
and In some instances unstudled and
skctchy after the impressionist style.

Especial Letter.)

Especial Letter.)
IN YER since the foundation Of
X the Third Republic Franco
has been in condition Of
constant ferment. The coun-
try realizes that, like all Latin races,
1t requires leader beyond everything,
and the question is what personality
can free her from her actual condition
Of chaos and confusion.
No one possesses a greater claim to
her allegiance than Louis Philippe
Robert. Due d'Orleans. He can appeal
not only to those democratic princi-
pies which were adopt in July, 1880.
but he Is also the chosen successor of
the older Bourbon line. When his ia
ther. the Comte de Paris. submitted to
the Comte de Chambord in 1873, he
laid the foundations of the fusion be-
tween the Legitimist and Orleanist
parties. The fusion was cemented in
1884 by the death of Henri ", for
since then the overwhelming majority
Of the Legitimists have recognized first
the Comte de Paris and then the Due
dOrleans as the successive heads Of
the royal race in France.
Unfortunately for himself the Comte
de Paris claimed to be king OF France.
He had but little of the dictator. His
whole policy was one of compromise,
which could effect nothing in n coun-
try where the personality OF the in
dividual is everything. He therefore
steadily lost ground from the very mo-
ment he became the recognized head
VI his house.
The wreck of his party was COM
pleted by his understanding with
General Boulanser. He overrated the
power of this political charlatan.
The Due dOrleans had, however,
started fair. Born at Twickenham on
February 6. 1869, he is even now only
32 years of age. His striking resem-
blance to Henri ~. had won him sup
port from the more convinced section
Of his following.
He made a good move politically

authority, says that Maitre Labori,
who has split with Dreyfus, will be
prosecuted If he oversteps professional
secrecy regarding the Dreyfus revela-
tions. Dreyfus is In Paris. where he
is taking steps for probable eventual
defense against Maitre Laborl's state
ments. He has close relations with
the Socialist wing Of the government
supporters and he frequently meets
Prime Minister Waldeck- Rousseau.
An inspector in one of the large
Paris shops noticed woman. poorly
clothed. carrying a baby. who went
from one department to another with
out buying anything. He noticed also
that from time to time she lifted the
child's veil and kissed 1t affectionately.
He went up to her. under pretense
Of admiring her baby, and lifted the
veil. He found that the baby was
really large cardboard doll, inside OF
which the woman had placed number
of articles she had stolen.
The gambling passion is by no
means confined to the male kind. 1t
is well known fact that Paris is
riddled with Its ramiflcations, and
that the gentler sex by no means es-
cape the temptation. Even a con-
cierge is not too busy with mops and

actions. When the owner of the
house called to collect his due. she
told pitiful tale of burglars who had
broken into her lodge and stolen the
rents. There was. however, want
of conference about the tale, and the
truth finally came out.
1t appears that this unlucky con-
cierge once backed winner and had
great faith in her luck-a fateful faith
which is not limited to her particu-
lar class. The poor woman is in Jail.

Chicago, July 21.-There will not be renewal of the freight handlers strike in Chicago. This decision was reached at special meeting of the Freight Handlers union Sunday night called by President Curran to consid- CT report that four of the roads are discriminating against the old employees who went on strike few weeks ago. After a careful investiga- tion the committees appointed to in- vestigate the supposed grievances reported that all the railroads with the exception of the Panhandle are living up to their agreements, and that in some instances the men had been accorded better terms than had been demanded while they were on strike. While the Panhandle people have been unable to replace all the strikers, it was reported all the old men would be back at work in the course of a few days, or as soon as the contracts of the non-union men who had been engaged during the strike should expire.

The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1902-12-16

Many columns have been written about the re-
appointment of the negro Wick as postmaster at
Wilson. The bare facts in the case are as fol-
lows: Wick is about the only one of McKinley's
negro postmasters remaining in office, and Sena-
tor Pritchard announced some time ago that he
would recommend the appointment of a white
man to succeed him. When Roosevelts Crum
letter was published, some predicted that the
Senator would back down. But he didn't; he
asked the President to appoint a white man
named Boykin to succeed Wick. Then a number
of white Democrats of Wilson signed a letter to
the President certifying to Vick's high charac-
ter and ability. The Democratic Congressman,
realizing the bad politics of this move, attempted
to set their party straight, by joining in the re-
quest for the appointment of a white man. Sen
ator Pritchard, being next called on for his rea-
sons for opposing Wick, stated that the negro
postmaster refused to support the Republican
ticket this year. And so the matter stands at
this writing. We cannot say what the outcome
will be.

inconvenience and expense which now obtains in

Owe FORM OF PUBLIC ROBBERY.

Apropos of the scramble for places already
begun, the Chatham Record, whose editor is a
Senator-elect, says:
"The truth is that every Legislature has more
employees than are actually needed. Sympathy
for eager applicants induces many members of
the Legislature to insist on the employment of
more men than are needed. It might be well
for the next Legislature to institute a reform
in this respect, and only have employees who are
actually necessary"
We hope that Senator London will insist on
this reform when he gets to the Capitol. Where
there are "more employees than are actually
needed" some one gets paw that he doesn't earn;
and there is no more moral Justification for the
member who knowingly uses his legislative power
to give the States money to a friend who hasn't
earned it, than there is for the highway robber
who holds up a treasurer and gives the booty to
his friends.
