course there have. been exceptions, vet
Southern writer's undoubtedly have a
great amount of fiction OF value.
For example. our Four Years I'm
der Marse Robert by Mai Starr, was
sent to leading publishing house OF
that kind, but was returned to the
author with a statement to the effect
that it would not sell more than 500
copies, and that it's Northern customers
who purchased on the strength of its
previous record would be dissatisfied
I'VE placed this book on the market
Sept. l, last, and on the first of May
we were selling the eighth thousand.
And this. too, in the face of the fact
that the book was selling for 81. The
sales were by no means confined to the
South, or even to the United States.
Notable Fiction Writers.
That Sandhill,' by Mrs. Clark War
ing, of Columbia, S. c., who belonged
to one of the largest slave holding
families of the South. will have a
large sale. Mary Johnson's work has
done more to stimulate interest in
Southern authors in the North and
East and in Europe than anything else,
regardless of the merits of her books.
Thomas Nelson Page has endeared
himself to readers. both North and
South. In the fall he is preparing to
issue a book dealing with the race
question of to-day, and the relations
of the races, with an attempt at a
solution of the political problem in

There are few Books which do not
pay the cost of publication" said Mr..
Neale. though publishers sometimes
issue such knowing that there will be
a loss. 1t is an idea of the public
that the publishers get more than the
authors, but this Is mistake. For
the big writers the royalty is consider
able.
1.-THE great Southern war novel has
not yet been written in my judgment,
and it may never be. For that mat
ter, neither has the great American
novel. French and English novels give
a clear picture of those people, but
no American novel does the same for
this country. There is no American
Vanity Fair or Sappho.
Historical Romance Sleeps.
"Just now the historical romance is
sleeping, and even those about the
Civil War are temporarily shelved by
those dealing with present day prob
lens, Jhougn most or these arose from
the war. Writers on the negro prob
lem should be vigorous and not mince
words. And that reminds me that the
racial differences are hard to get
over. The Southern people are less in
sympathy with the Japanese than the
Northern people. We have seen enough
Of other races not to like them and
have racial hatreds. If the war were
nearer to this country, we Southern
ers would. side with the Russians. We

COMING BOOKS BY
SAVANNAH AUTHORS
THREE TO BE READY SOON.
WHY MORE SOUTHERN BOOKS ARE
NOT PUBLISHED.

Mr.. Walter Nea1e of the NeaIe Pub
fishing Company Says Most North
ern Publishers Are Afraid to Put
Out Books With Southern Phases
of Civil War-BOOks by Southern
Authors That Have Succeeded nft-
err Having Been Rejected by Pub
lishers-SOuthern Writers Coming
10 the Front in Spite of Disad-
vantages.
Instead of waiting for Southern au-
thors to open negotiations for the pub
lication of books, Mr.. Walter Neale.
president of the Neale Publishing Com
pany of New York, is in Savannah for
the purpose of meeting Southern writ
ers. He is at the De Soto, and will
leave tonight, after spending two days
here.
Savannah has three authors whose
books we will probably bring out" said
Mr.. Neale to a representative of the
Morning News. "Of course, 1 do not
care to mention any names just now.
One of the books will he work of fic-
liol anu the OUHer TWO "reminiscences.
The products of the three Savannah
authors referred to will average better
than the product of the average pub
Usher. We have probably received
twenty-five manuscripts from Savan-
nah during the five years we have
been in business.
Our publishing house makes a
speciality of Southern authors, though,
of course, we do not limit ourselves.
1t is often impossible to get a really
very worthy book published by North
ern houses. They say frankly it's con-
tents would probably offend their Glen
tege. in which they are probably right.
Rise of Southern Authors.
I'm the realm of fiction the most no.
ticeable thing is the rise of Southern
writer's during the last five years. We
are issuing a great deal of Southern
fiction, and it is of more than ordinary
interest. The South has labored un-
der a great many disadvantages for
the lack of publisher who would take
up a line of work which has been dis
tasteful to the Northern publishers,

delegates were in attendance. Much
time was saved by charts COW
ering varied interests of the

ing made by ministers and delegates.
The charts prepared by the presiding

very fine condition. For ministerial
support the district shows an increase
of assessment of $1016 over last year.
On an assessment of $3.50 for foreign
missions, $2.267.25 has been paid. Do
nestle missions, $1,165, paid 81, 1868. The
report on church membership shows
a net increase of 1870 and total mem
bership of 6.799. Sunday-school schol-
airs, 1887; league members, 573; wom-
ems foreign missionary societies, II;
home missionary societies, 8.

trict.

diSts of Georgia are asked to. join in
the building of hospital to cost sew
eral hundred thousand dollars. The
movement was approved by the con-
ference and commended to the people.
Two of the addresses delivered by
laymen, Rev w. A. Nease and w. w.
Enecks on Has the Day of the Local
