The Venezuelan and Panama
Canal situations are editorially dis
cussed in the Review of Reviews
for February. In addition to his
comments on these very prominent
topics of the hour, the editor gives
his usual valuable survey of the
month important happenings, at
home and abroad. Among the con-
tributed articles there are two
character sketches of exceptional
interest: "Abram S. Hewitt, a
Great Citizen" is the subject of a
discriminating tribute from the pen
of Hon. Edward M. Shepard the
great New York lawyer and poll
tician, who knew Mr.. Hewitt in
timately, while Mr.. George Perry

in the series by various authors on

States. II is the aim of these pa
pers to show our Government ac-
tually in operation; reverting to the
past sufficiently to trace the de-
velopment of power and response.
bility in department.; discussing the
present order to show the machinery
of Government as it now works; and
looking to the future with its great
problems in view, all pressing for
solution. Mr.. Rhodes, the we'll
known historian, has had extraor-
binary opportunities to acquire
knowledge of the manner in which
Presidents do their work, and in
this article he passes acute COM
meuts not only on the earlier Presl-
dents, but upon Lincoln, Cleveland,
Mckinley and Roosevelt. His pa
per is a study of the Office, and, in
addition, of the impression made
upon the Office by the personality of
the great men who have held it.
