What Is a Classic?

An esteemed New Hampshire con-
temporary has this to announce to
81 waiting world:
William Dean HOweIIs. the prominent
klTtrTy Point author, who ranks nrst
among the classical writer's Of the day,
gave dinner at the Rockingham on
Sunday TO Col. George Harper Of the
wcll-known publishing house.
We don't care to know the con-
stituent parts of the dinner, nor
even to correct the gallant Colonel
Harvey's name. What we do wish to
discuss is the mild assurance of the
newspaper that HoweIs ranks first
among the classical writer's Of the
day. or that he is a classical writer
at all.
For what is a literary classic? It's
chief quality is longevity, and next
to that the appreciation and regard
of people of taste for continued
years. Robinson Crusoe" is a
classic, but we have no doubt that
IL was regarded by Nicholas Rowe,
the forgotten poet laureate Of its
epoch, as rather uncouth story-teu-
ing. Some OF the Mother Goose
poems are as truly classical as an
ode OF Horace.
1t is, therefore, altogether too
early TO call Mr.. Howells' novels
classics. We may admit that they
are finely polished, intellectual
studies of human lives, without also
feeling any too sure that they are
destined to live. Indeed it is more
than likely that Peter Finlay
Dunne's afr. Dooley" papers, or
Jack London's Call Of the Wild"
viii be the classics of 1896, when
Mr.. Howells' attenuated stories shall
be known only to antiquarians in
literary lore.

The Labor Famine.

The other day the Reclamation
Service announced that it had taken
possession of the outfits Of certain
contractors for work on big irriga-
tion projects in the West and would
hereafter prosecute the work itself
till new arrangements could be
made. The contractors, il was ex-
planned, had been unable to get men
TO ao the work. and the operations
hopelessly Jagged,
The day following this, it was an
nounced that the Isthmian Canal
Commission had decided to contract
for a big importation of Chinese
cooHe labor TO dig the big ditch.
There viii be a violent protest in
certain quarters against this course,
but there is little doubt the Admin
istration has done right. Nobody in
the United States wants to shovel
the germ-ladeu tropie mud OF the
zone; everybody has a better Job,
nearer home, where the expectation
of life is more promising.
These two cases of Government
troubles in getting laborers may be
supplemented with numerous others.
Thus the navy yards, gun works,
etc. are in constant trouble keep
ing their expert mechanical en-
ployes because private concerns can
pay more than Uncle Sam gives.
EnIisting men for army and navy is
increasingly difficult with each year
of this era of reeling prosperity.
The fact IS that nobody can get
anybody TO work The railroad com
panies which are building a great
mileage both here and in Canada
cannot get men enough. The South
the new, rcvitalized. industrial,
yvide-awaIe South-is looking for
men to do its work and demanding
measures which win enable it to get
"a fair share of the immigration now
coming in "a mighty stream to these
shores. The South cannot get what
il wants because the rest of the
country has the call and wants the
workers.
1t isn't that this continent is short
on labor, but that it is long on work

of mentality to induce a fictitious
frigidity. Most men are bound to
be hot when they are where heat
is. A large number of the don't"
family are foolish.
But almost every man, woman,
and child can refrain from that yio-
lent strain on the physical system
that makes heat so deadly. Is a
train lost or a delayed appointment
so very serious compared with your
life? If you are not of that class
beloved of fortune who can take
things easy" you can at least de-
cline to make either a race-horse or
a dray-horse of yourself.
In the full tide of midsummer,
discretion is better than an ice-pack

Mr. Bryan and .The chinese omeial.n

Messrs. Mcclure, Phillips & Co. an
nounce for publication on or about Au-
gust q, Letters to a Chinese Official. q"
By William Jennings Bryan. a reply 70
the famous volume which has attracted
such widespread attention both IN Eng
land and Ameriea-"Letters from a Chi
nese Oniciai'-in which the ideals and
state OF civilization OF the Western world
were criticised from an Oriental point OF
view and in comparison with Chinese
standards.
The story OF the writing Of Mr. Bry-
ans book has a peculiar interest of its
own. Mr.. Bryan was IN China when
the aforementioned little book was
brought to his attention. and because he
felt that the cause against his own race
was overstated. and too glowing pic
ture was painted OF the condition Of af-
fairs in the Celestial Empire. he sat
down In an interval. on shipboard. and
wrote a reply, sending 1t TO this country
from Suez. Egypt
Mr.. Bryan's book is more than mere
reply to another book. IL is a glowing
confession cf faith ia the ideals and
purposes OF our race. and more partic-
uIarly those Of the American people. II
is a statement Of the gTOun Is OF his own
patriotism, and is perme4ted with a
spirit OF wise and serene optimism.

The announcement in The Times
Thursday that President Roosevelt
would probably be awarded the Alfred

Swedish parliament. did not come as
much Of a surprise TO Government ohl-
