minds to vote for the republican oandi- dates on the ground that Roosevelt is known while Parker is an unknown quantity so far as they have any Knowledge.
 A few days ago Senator Stone of Missouri gave out talk in Washing ton. in which he dwelt at some length. and very seriously, upon the lack of enthusiasm every where, and he said he had been struck with the lack of in terest shown by men of both parties. '' He said that he seldom heard political issues discussed in hotels or in cars, and then remarked:
 ''I do not know what all this means. It may mean that the people have made up their minds how they will vote and don't care to make a fuss about it. It may mean that we will have a light vote in November. But whatever it does mean, the condition that seems to apply to the entire coun- try, and certainly does in Missouri. is marked to degree have never seen before"
 We take it to mean that the voters of the United States are not to be hood winked into changing the administra- ton at Washington. They know Pres ident Roosevelt. and what he stands for, and they admire man of force and vigor. That there will be light vote was not indicated in Oregon last spring nor in Vermont and Maine this autumn. When the politicians are un- able to determine the beats of the pub lie pulse it is evident that the situation is undetermined and the result large ly a matter of conjecture. Still. as we have remarked, the inference is that the voters of the United States have yet in mind the administration of Cleveland. and they are not disposed to try any more such experiments. Let us hope that this is the explanation Of a lack of outward enthusiasm for which Sen ator Stone has been searching and which he seems to regret is not to be found.

try making. in covert way. the charge that the president is dangerous and thus it is not to be an occasion for surprise when some ignorant up- start takes to the stump and goes to the extent of declaring that the as sassination of the president would have done no harm to the country. Tinman and German are both on record as having attacked the president on the same lines as those credited to lief lin, and thus he may attempt 10 ex- cuse himself on the plea of democratic precedent.
 Three presidents of the United States have been n urdered in a most cruel fashion, and it would be natural to suppose that every American citizen capable of writing his name or read ing a newspaper would deplore the mere suggestion of the assassination of fourth president. Yet the quota ton from the speech of this Alabama man is merely a bid for some fanatic to spring to the fore If this is to be the policy of the democratic speakers the decent democrats of the country should arise in their wrath and call a halt

The Lack of Enthusiasm in the Na-
 tionaI Campaign.

Brass bands are not playing any part in the campaign now under way. From all quarters of the country word comes that the observers of the undercurrent of sentiment find a belief that the cleo ton of Roosevelt is necessary for the good of the country. There is certainly no Parker enthusiasm as there was Bryan enthusiasm four and eight years ago.
 The candidate who was taken from the bench, and who is now in charge of the democratic national committee, has not aroused any marked volume Of enthusiasm anywhere and nobody ap- pears able to make any guess as to the result. This Is ascribed by some to apathy. and by others to the fact that voters have made up their minds what they intend doing. and thus they do not search for settlements and all the for mer attractions of a presidential cam paign.
 From Missouri comes some interest ing reports, and perhaps they mean in the aggregate that the voters of the country are well satisfied with the work of the republican party and are anxious to stamp it with their en- dorsement by voting for Roosevelt and Fairbanks. An independent newspaper in Kansas City intimates that It would not be surprising if that stlte-and a most surprising intimation-wculd give its electoral vote to Roosevelt, although it gave Bryan a plurality of more than 37,00O four years ago. Further, a re- cent visitor to Missouri from this city reports that, in private conversation with a number of democrats there, he discovered that they had made up their

AVERAGE ENGLIsHMANs IDEA
 OF AMERICA

The average Englisan1an is not a great student of American affairs He never learns anything of American his tory in school; he is not taught Amer ican geography: from tae Revolution onwards, with a slight break at the time of the Civil war, the history of the UTitsd States is a sealed bok to linn, and of tLe general form and workings of the American system Of government he knows worse than no- thing. What man gets out of a newspaper is in proportion to what he brings to it, and the ordinary English reader, I fear. is more dazed than helped by the cablegrams from New York that seek to enfold the mysteries of American politics. Apart from poli- tics, the American cOrrespondance of the English papers is for the most part merely q reproduction Of the fake" yarns and impossible trfviaIities with wEica a certain section of the American press delights to pad out it's columns. Get hold of the average Englishnan and you will finr his Knowledge of Am erica to be in the main a tumble of lyTchtnSs lady saloon mashers. faith healers.

exceedingly serviceable institution. 1t
IS a fact that In no other city of this
size does the per capita circulation
equal that Of Minneapolis, showing
that the management here has been
remarkably successful in bringing the
benefits of the library to a larger num-
Der OF people and is entitled, to credit
for it..
Some criticism has been y made at
times of the proportion of expense in
CURED In administration, The report
shows that the cost of distributing
books is less in this city than in other
cities Of the same size and character,
and in few is it as. small as it is here.
We have never had much sympathy
with this fault-finding because Of the
expense Of administration. Possibly
the same work might have been done
more cheaply, but narrow curtailment
In that department is foolish and the
worst kind of mistaken, Judgment if
1T means less efficiency It makes
very little difference how many thou
sands OF volumes we pile upon the
shelves If we do not get them into the
hands of the public and assist the pub
lie In intelligent use OF them. Alto
gether the administration Of the public
library, we are inclined to believe, has
been efficient and as, we'll worth the
money as any branch of the public
service in this city.
The doctor very generously passes
credit for this success among his sub
ordinates. He might have gone more
into detail as to this part Of the work,
but no doubt a large degree of this
success lies with Miss Countryman,
who assumes responsibility on the first
OF February. It is to be hoped in this
connection, that Miss Countryman will
be given sufficient latitude and author
lty to intelligently and effectively dis
charge the heavy responsibilities
which rest upon her. She cannot sue
ceed without it. Responsibility with
out authority is never a success.

1t is the "dramatique craftsmanship

rather than the poetry of masterpieces of

Is extremely interesting. He apparently
holds that the drama was the earliest of
the arts being, in Greece, evolved slowly
out of a pantomimic dance. whence ulti-
mately came Greek tragedy, which has
strongly influenced more or less, the
dramatic literature Of every modern Ian

an evolution from the vintage festivals of
the Greek. and incidentally he illustrates
the versatility of Aristophanes, recognize ed
as orleEof the master poets of Greece. The
discussion includes details of the ancient
theaters Of the Greeks and Romans, and
methods of the dramatists and players
There is a very valuable paper on the
medieval drama, evolved from a feature
of religious worship, an incident of the
service.
The chapter on the future of the drama
is of special Importance. The author
thinks that, while the theater is often only
an idle amusement and the stage often
occupied by an empty spectacle, the
drama, in it's graver aspects, as a con-
tribution to literature and a form Of poet
ry, is not dead, nor dying, and he finds
evidence that it is on the threshold of
a new youth. The novel will be evicted
from its apparent primacy, and it will
be demonstrated that the drama "can
deal adequately and suggestively with
some Of the problems of existence as they
present themselves unanimously to-day
in our seethng society,""

The Retiring Librarian.

DR.. j. K. Hosmer retires from the
office of public librarian on the first
Of February. He made his last annual
report at the regular annual meet
ing of the board yesterday.
DR.. Hosmer has been at the head Of
the Minneapolis library for twelve
years, and his retirement, especially
if it should imply his removal from
the city, will be regretted by the pub
lie generally and particularly by all
those who have come in contact with
him professionally and socially. While
we have never regarded DR.. Hosmer
as a great librarian, we have always
entertained sincere respect for the
man and his attachments, and for the
excellent spirit with which he has un-
dertaken to promote the educational
and literary interests of the. city. He
has been an inspiration along those
lines and has rendered much more
valuable service to the public in that
capacity than in the mere discharge
of his duties as an executive.
AS matter Of fact, he does not pos
sess the executive faculty in a large
measure. Men of his bent seldom do
And yet he has placed the city under
obligations to him which cannot be
measured in days work done in an
executive capacity. We could easily
have obtained for Minneapolis a man
of more businesslike methods than
those which DR.. Hosmer, has insti-
tuted in the conduct of the public Ii
brary, but we could not easily have
obtained man whose influence upon
the literary and educational forces Of
the city would be nearly as valuable.
There may have been some criticism
Of the fact that DR.. Hosmer has done
serving as librarian. Possibly some
hint of this has reached the doctor
himself, and may explain the fact that
he sets out in his report some account
of What,he has done in that line since
he has been in Minneapolis. We hope
the people of Minneapolis will read
that part of his report, as it is a very
admirable record and one which re-
fleets credit upon this city. It is GER
tainly worth a good deal to Mime
apolis to have it generally known that
the head of our library is so highly
regarded by the literary world and by
the best publishers Of the country that
his services are in demand as an au-
thor and editor,.and beyond his capa-
city to meet them even after he has
laid down the labors Of librarian.
But Notwithstanding all that has
been said about the executive capacity
of the retiring librarian and his prom
inence in the field Of letters, the fact
remains that under his. administration
the Minneapolis library has been an
