KENT FORT MANOR. By William Henry
Babcock, Author of The Tower of Wye,'' Etc.
philadelphia: Henry 7. Coates & Co. Price,
$3.50. &s. &s%2y#
The author The Tower. OF Wye was
well received and showed his pleasing
power Of colonial times romancing. In
this new novel he deals with the period
OF the civil war and the Interesting stu
alton in the border state, maryland,
whose people were prevented from seced-
ing by, their proximity to tie national
capital and kept in the union by the pres
ence Of national troops. In the narrative
Of the doings of the old Claiborne family,
the seYering Of family ties by division Of
sentiment, part of "a family being in the
union army and partsfghting for the Con-
federacy, is portrayed. Stalwart gentle
men Of the countryside, like Roderick
Claiborne of Kent Island, and Kent Fort
Manor on the Eastern Shore, sympathized
with the Confederates in a somewhat quiet
way, and the author gives a very realis-
tic description Of border state life in those
tumultuous days. The Claiborne family
was divided in its sympathies, and, al
tho the ancestral seat of the ClaibOrnes
was insular and deemed a quiet locality.
the bumptious Roderick did not get thru
the war without experiencing considera-
BILE inconvenience. as he and his daughter
Margaret and her lover were arrested and
imprisoned in Washington and then sent.
thru the union lines into the Confederacy.
The love affair Of Arthur Lloyd and the
beautiful Margaret puts many a fine pas
sage in these pages. The scene Where
union troops occupy Kent Fort Manor and
Margaret was taken prisoner, as was
Lloyd, her lover, in his home adjoining,
is more Iunorous than tragical. while
there is real tragedy in the death Of Ithaca
Claiborne, who fought "on the union side.
Thruout the book theI broad humor of old
Steve, faithful family servant, under all
conditions and circumst tances, illuminates
the pages. '. f1f-'% "

Wall Street in Politics.

There has been considerable newspaper
speculation and political gossip as to the
attitude of Wall street interests toward
Roosevelt in 1904 and the method they
would probably adopt to secure his defeat.
1t has been the general understanding and
expectation heretofore that the method
employed against the president would be
the nomination of some democrat who
could secure the support of the business
interests" the Wall street schemers ap-
plying that designation to themselves.
The Washington Star; which is a gener
ally well-informed paper on political mat
ters, asserts that the latest plan is not to
attempt to defeat Roosevelt at the polls,
but to head him off for the nomination in
the republican convention. It Is hoped to
do this by working for uninstructed dele
gates in the north and for anti Roosevelt
delegates in the south, and they apparent
1y rely upon the use of sufficient money to
hold enough delegates away from Roose-
veltsto prevent his nomination. e.
Undoubtedly there are Wall street in
terests which would be glad to defeat the
president for nomination or for election.
The Star may be right about their pres
ent plan. It is also we'll enough for the
presidents friends to be on their guard
and not overconfident But the scheme
outlined by the Star does not commend
itself to our Judgment as a practical plan.
In fact, we cannot see any practical or
probably successful plan for the defeat Of
Roosevelt for nomination or election: So
perhaps, the one outlined is as good as
any.
The activities of the Wall street crowd
and their apparent confidence in their
success is Of interest largely for the rev.
elation it makes of the complete ignorance
of these enemies of the president as to his
real strength with the people Of the coun-
try.
Our contemporary across the alley seems
to be suffering from a false perspective
1oroprieties In its repeated and daily roar
about the newspaper graft" at the legis-
lature. In the first place it acts as If the
unjustifable gratuity to newspaper re-
porters by the legislature had been COW
cred up, and as il a general effort had
been made to conceal 1t. We do not re-
call what the columns Of the Tribune
showed at the time, but he Jour
N ais reports gave this matter the
same publicity that they did to other
gratis at the time they we're granted-it
published the fact in it's legislative report
and explained that while reporters
for other papers might be privileged to
accept such gifts, no Journal reporter
posed to place himself in the unmanly at
titude Of working a graft. Another fact
which raises the question Of propriety in
the assumption by the Tribune OF the role

What will the harvest be for 1903,
Do q question that the entire world is
asking itself. The world has just
passed seven years Of plenty and it is
predicted that beginning with the
present year the opposite will be ex-
perienced for the coming seven years.
This theory may prove true, but we
are unable tossee, as far as our retro
spect extends over the past, or as far
- we can peer irto me future, any
thing 10 warrant such prediction.
Today there is enough grain and food
stun in the country to feed the peo-
pie for twelve months, if the crop of
1903 should prove a failure the
world over. Money is plentiful and
cheap. The inventive genius of man
is solving the great problems of mo-
tive power, light and fuel. New dis
coveries in medical science will be
given to the world which will insure
health,g longer life and happiness.
