LITERATURE AND TOBACCO

Somehow or other we associate to-
| acco with literary men, but not all
writer's are lovers of the weed Goethe
hated tobacco intensely and never lost
chance to attack it. Heinrich Heine
had the same dislike.
Balzac, who lived on black coffee,
preached wisely to the young about
the vice of smoking, and Victor Hugo
and Dumas were equally opposed, to
the prictice. But the list of French
smokers comprises many great names,
such as Elfred de Musset, Eugehe Sue,
Paul de ST. Victor, Prosper Merimee-
Beranger and Baudelaire.
Nine Dudevant, better known as
George Sand, often indElged in ci-
gar between the intePva's of her lit
erary labors.
Charles Lamb. "fhe gentle Ella" at
one time was a great smoker but af-
terwards just as great a batter of it
In the height of his smoking days,

it has failed to destroy the socialist
strength. Consequently a revolution
airy proceeding is contemplated.
This charge is met with a rather sur
prising frankness by the Kreuz-Zeit-
ung (Berlin) @'the Byzantine organ of
absOlutism," as the Socialist paper
says. There is no doubt, asserts the
conservative sheet, that the social
democratic party mas brought about
an intolerable condition within the
German empire. Respect for the
throne and the altar has been under
mined to an extent that is frightful.
The good old German ideas Of the
fathers and the grandfathers Of the
race are sneered away. The land is
perVaded with notions from the United
States. God help the fatherland!
The peril calls for constitutional rene
dies and the men at the head of affairs
will not be daunted by the necessity.

ABOLISH UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE.

The movement to abolish universal
suffrage in Germany is taking such a
defined shape that something like a
crisis exists both within the social
democratic party and the ranks Of the
conservative and reactionary Agrari-
ans. Emperor William has followed
up his statement that he does mot
wish for the German people freedom
to govern badly" He adds to it other
public utterances which give great
concern to the Socialist Vorwaerts
(Berlin). That paper says that the
reactionaries are frankly aiming at the
subversiOn of popular institutions so
far as they exist in Germany. This
heroic undertaking is the only method
by means of which the reactionaries
can maintain their supremacy. Figures
show that social-democratic ideas are
growing. In the general election of
1898 the Socialists polled 2,107 100
votes, but are allowed only 81 mem
bers in the reichstag, whereas the
Roman Catholic Center party rolled
only 1,455,100 votes and is allowed
102 members. This is the result of
under-represe of the cities; but
