that he set his face innexibly
against the heresy of The Didac-
tic He would not have it that
the ultimate object of poetry is
truth; that every poem should
preach n moral. Poe was GER
tainly right: A poem built in
beauty is its own excuse for be-
ing. For the soul is enlarged not
so much by mere knowledge or
bare skeleton of truth as by the
dlation Of the imagination. The
path through beauty is the most
direct path of ascension to the
Divine.
This theory is especially inter
esting, because it's clear presenta-
ton demonstrates that a poet
who could originate it and work
with it must have been while at
work rarely happy human be-
ing, in spite of the untoward cir
cumstances of a most unhappy
life.
The value of the theory to
criticism admits of debate. Ger
tainly, a theory that helped to
produce perfect poems like "To
Helen, " 1.-The Raven" and "Ula-
lume" is good theory for a poet
who is possessed by it. But there
are poets of high rank who work
without theorizing. Criticism
certainly must do so. The only
serviceably criterion in Judging
poetry or prose is that of Prof.
Saintsbury, who sums it all up
in one question, SIS the work
good?" This rule is simple
enough, but to apply it unerring-
ly requires more than all the
combined knowledge of all the
chairs of literature in all the UNI
versities in the world.

Endorsement by the Democrats Of
Galveston County.

Whereas, our distinguished fell
low citizen, Senator r. V. David
son, is candidate for the office
of Attorney General of the State
of Texas, sui ject TO the action Of
the democratic party:
Whereas, our close association
with Senator Davidson for many
years past qualities us TO speak Of
HIM advisedly to our fellow demo-
Gratis throughout the State. From
the highest patriotic motives
Judge Davidson for many years
past has given his time, talent
and energy to advancing the best
interest Of our public free schools
and during the past three years
no one has done more than he in
the great work of rehabiitating
our city. As u democrat Judge
Davidson's Devotion has been
lifelong and his efforts for its
welfare untiring. As a member
of the State Senate his actions
have been wise and always with
an eye slngly 80 the welfare Of
the State at large; being broad
minded and tolerant in his views
he has at no time aligned himself
with any faction within or with
out the democratic party.
Whereas, We recognize IN Sena-
tor Davidson man eminently
fitted for the high office of attor-
ney general, not only by reason
of his profound legal learning,
but because of his sterling char
acter, splendid citizenship and
absolute freedom from entangle-
ments of every character and
kind calculated to in any manner
influence him in the fearless dis
charge of the duties incumbent
on said office. Therefore be it
Resolved, by the Democratic
Club of Galveston county, that
We unanimously commend Judge
Davidson to the favorable consid-
Grafton Of the democratic voters
Of Texas.
This resolution was unani-
mously adopted by u rising vote

Poe and Poetry.
Dn,lnn Chronicle.

llvAH.'A SNA 'hiNA'f
Mr.. Edwin Markham, the
American poet, who is perhaps
best known 20 the public as the
author of 1.-The Man With the
Hoe, y has written an article on
Edgar Allan Poe. The article is
entitled "The Art Gud Genius of
Poe" 1t forms th" introduction
H. new ten-volume edition of
the great authors works. In re-
cent years the publishing houses
have been busy getting out edi-
lions of Poe. Critical apprecia-
tions of Poe recurrentlv appear in
the magazines. The Poe revival
continues.
One of the few world poets of
the 10Th century, this cruelty re-
warded Southern singer. whose
perfect verse was n model for
Tennyson, Swinburne, Baudelaire
and every competent craftSman
iii rhyme who has come after
him, when he has lain for half a
century dead, has his memory
vindicated from Jealous Islander
and his genius praised at more
per line than the wonderful
writer himself received by men
not worthy to have mended his
pens.
Mr. Markham ls an exception
among the Poe praisers. Himself
a minor poet of distinction. he
possessed i'll no small degree the
critical faculty. What he has to
say is really of value. Poe, he
suggests, "has the distinction of
being the only American who, like
Coleridge and Wordsworth in
England, and Burger in Ger
many, had a definite theory of
poetry and vigorously followed it
out
This theory, Mr.. Markham be-
lieves, consisted IN the discovery
that for himself at least poetry
has its origin sin a thirst for a
wilder Beauty than earth supplies
that poetry itself is the imper-
feet effort to quench this immor-
tai thirst. He defines the poetry
of words as the rhythmical crea-
ton of beauty, and AYERS that the
sole arbiter is Taste, which stands
between Pure Intellect and the
Moral Sense"
sit goes without saying, then, "
Mr., Markham continues, that
Poe stood for art for arts sake,
