Tbe Conservative.

Of wonderful development is the
theme of Country Life in Cali
fornia," by A. J. Wells; and "The
Story of Great California Estate"
by Charles Howard Shinn, naturally
follows. Throughout, the unusual
opportunities for illustrating Cali
fornia at it's best have been we'll
taken, but Of particularly striking
beauty are several series of photo
graphs. Of these, "The Expresses Of
Monterey" show a picturesque feature
Of the southern coast; the Yucca
Palms and Gila monsters, the weird
life in the Mojave desert; and the
poppies and poppyworts furnish the
color that gives California it's fame
as land of flowers Then in prac-
tical way, portion Of the number is
given to the making Of homes and
gardens, the culture and commercial
handling of fruits, and to many as
poets of the soil. Certainly Country
Life in America grows better with
every number, and proves the grip
that life under the open skies has up
on us Americans.

COUNTRY LIFE IN AMERICA.

The January Country Life in Amer
lea is California number with superb
pictures characteristic of this unique
and beautiful magazine, and wholly
devoted to the outdoor world OH the
Pacific coast. The special covers
show big trees of the Sierras, and,
magnificent frontispiece, the blooming
orchards at the foot of snow capped
mountains. The leading article, by
L. H. Bailey, tells Of the diversified
beauties and peculiarities Of the land
that flowers in winter and sleeps in
summer, where thunder storms are
not and where the sun shines ever
lastingly. Pioneer days are recalled
by "The Heroes of the Firing Line"

THE CANDLE ON THE PLATE.

"The year that lived in Chicago I
noticed one night in passing through
the Polish Jew quarter something I
have since seen elsewhere" writes the
Rev. David M. Steele in the Ladies'
Home Journal. "It was the candle on
the plate A man dies and for want of
means to pay the rent his family is to
be turned out on the street. The widow
sets plate on the pavement before the
door and puts lighted candle on it.
For the length of time that it will burn,
it is summons to the neighbors pass
ing by to put in nickels, dimes and pen
nies-which invariably they do-until
a fund is raised sufficient to save the
family from eviction. Would the same
thing happen on the Stock Exchange if
a bank failed?"
The Conservative, 1902-01-02
FIRST ACROSS THE CONTINENT.

We wonder greatly at Mr.. Noah
Brooks having chosen the above title for
an account of the Lewis and Clark ex-
pedition. In what sense can those two
officers be said to have been the first
across the continent? We have not
seen Mr.. Brooks book possibly he may
qualify the impossible claim suggested
by it's title, in the inside of it. There
must be something unusual about the
book, for it is advertised as "concisely
and accurately compiled for the first
time from authentic records" This,
considering what DR.. Coues' edition of
Lewis and Clark is, amounts to fully
as curious a statement as the other the
two together really arouse curiosity.
One would not suppose that pub
fishers of the rank of the Scrib-
ners would consent to two mis-
statements of such magnitude, nor that
an author of the long standing of Noah
Brooks would propose them. One
would also be glad to believe that
neither writer nor publisher could be
led into error in these matters through
lack of information. But the more one
stirs about in western history, the less
surprised is he to meet any degree Of
ignorance in any quarter.
Anything is welcome that will at
tract peoples attention to that great
exploring expedition but there is a
definite need of a certain edition of the
captains journals, and we are rather
sorry to see new work come out that
is not the one we want to see. APP
parently this one is in the nature of a
juvenile, in which case there is no room
for criticism. 1t is not, at any rate, the
first time we have been disappointed.
A biography of the captains was an
nounced couple of years ago, written
The Conservative, 1902-01-02

by young man named Lightan, which
aroused hopes. A new edition of the
journals could not, of course, be looked
for under this guise; but one might
reasonably have expected more light on
General Clark's career than it proved to
furnish. He was occupied for parts of
three years in his exploration; for the
first half of the century he was the
foremost figure in Indian affairs in the
United States. One can understand
why DR.. Coues in editing the journals
should have sighted this major portion
of his career; but why should "bio-
grapher' confine himself to the inform
alton furnished by DR.. Coues? It would
be a very interesting task for some one
to undertake who had access to the
records at Washington and St. Louis, to
show exactly what General Clark's
work among the Indians consisted Of.
AS to the journal Of the great expedi-
tion, an equally important and attract
i've task also remains for some one to
under take. The fact is that no respect
able edition Of the journals is now avail
able to the buyer. The only one offered
by dealers is one copyrighted by the
Harpers in 1842 1t consists of the bare
text, and not very good text, accord
ing to the authorities, and without
notes, explanatory or critical. Who, in
fact, could offer additional information
on the country travelled, in 1842? From
this state Of poverty we passed to the
extreme of embarrassing wealth with
DR.. Coues' edition, which gives all that
anyone can possibly ask to know, and
something more. But DR.. Coues' Lewis
& Clark sells for $50 and upwards, and
even at that, one may inquire for years
without finding copy. There is room
and demand-for compact and not
too high priced edition of this work,
containing a reasonable amount of the
supplementary information collected by
DR.. Coues, or which has accrued since
his day. It does not seem probable that
Mr.. Brooks has furnished anything to
this purpose at all ; but we hope that
some competent person may do so be-
fore long.
The Conservative, 1902-01-02

vera Historical Society hopes to protect
everyone, so far as possible, in his own
rights.
And last but not least they hope to
collect data in published Reports and in
manuscripts that shall be conclusive and
authentic.
We can scarcely hope to decide "That
Great Elusive Myth" either as to loca-
ton or magnitude, but in time we hope
to see this condition prevail: If
student wishes to know all there is to be
known, that is real truth, about Qui-
vera he will be obliged to go to the
records, reports and annals of the Qui-
vera Historical Society.
The Conservative is the official organ
and will contain announcements from
time to time relating to the work Of the
society. It is the only medium through
which you can keep in touch with the
society and every one interested should
carefully scan every number.
While all details are not fully ar
ranged, it is settled fact that the next
meeting Of the Quivera Historical So
ciety will be held at "Logan Grove"
the beautiful home of Captain Robert
Henderson, near junction City, Kansas,
some time during the month of August,
1902.
A monument will then be unveiled
marking approximately the point to
which Coronado penetrated in 1542,
and commemorating the rediscovery of
this important place by J. V. Brewer.
The address will be delivered by our
president, Hon. J. " Brewer of st.
Paul, Minnesota, and the poem for the
occasion by E. E. Blackman of Lincoln,
Nebraska.
Last but not least, the Banquet in
honor of the occasion will be given by
Capt. Robert Henderson. We look for
ward with much delight to the hour
when all the members of the Quivera
Historical Society shall meet at the
bountiful board of Capt. Henderson.

Vice. President Quivera Historical
Society.

better than they were, the railroad

THE PASSING OF M'LAUR1N.

In the papers of South Carolina it is
not difficult to find the opinion ex-
pressed that the career of Senator
McLaurin as Democrat is about end
ed in that state. His announcement
that he will not abide by the
state Democratic primary practically
amounts to an admission that he has
no chance of being sent back to the
Senate
OF course he has following in South
Carolina, but it is not sufficiently
strong to justify him in expecting a
re- election to the Senate. Senator
TIllman has outgeneraled him; has, in
fact, eliminated HIM from the political
situation. There are those IN South
Carolina who seem to think that SEN
ator McLaurin will eventually land In
the Republican party. AS a Republic
can it is probable that he could mus
ter greater support than he could as
a Democrat.
There is some speculation as to
whether the President will give him q
federal office in South Carolina at the
end of his senatorial term.
OF course there Is nothing on which
to base an opinion as to whether he
has reason to expect anything from
the President or whether he would
accept position under the Republican
administration. He is not dependent
of course upon an office for living.
He is an able lawyer, and doubtless he
would have little difficulty in getting a
good practice If he shouId return to
his profession.
Senator Tiilman says that there will
be no lack of candidates for the place
in the Senate which Senator McLaurin
holds-candidatea who will willingly
take the oath which is prescribed in
the new primary rules There is, OF
course, no doubt about that. And ii
is probable that Senator rillman will
be able to name Senator McLaurin' :
successor. He still maintains firm
grip on the political situation in South
Carolina, Savannah News.

BUILD MONUMENT TO GEORGIA

The action of the Daughters of the
Confederacy IN their effort to erect in
Athens monument to the memory OF
Winnie Davis is being commended in
all sections of the South The Savan-
nah News in discussing the subject edi-
torialIy says:
The Daughters of the Confederacy
are doing great and good work in
building the Winnie DAVIS Memorial
| Hall at Athens. It's site is in the cam
pus of the State Normal School It is,
intact, to be dormitory of that insti-
tuition for the accommodation of the
daughters and grand daughters of Con-
federate veterans.
The hall is to cost about $4,000 and
its corner stone is to be laid next
month The Daughters of the Confed-
eracy have raised about Sc, 600 and the
General Education Board, composed oil
Northern philanthropists, donated it q
few days ago $4,5OO 1t will be seen,
therefore, that the Daughters of the
Confederacy are fully justified in
