Opposing Dalzell.

The brutal news comes out Of Pitts
burg that Congressman Dalzell is TO
have a competitor for the republican
nomination for congress this fall. A
"good mixer and good fellow is the
description of the man who is to con-
test the district. The Philadelphia
Press, which stands pat in every issue,
regular or extra, is disguised with the
news. It wants to know what is the
matter with Dalzell, who has for years
had an unopposed nomination. To lose
him it thinks would be a great mis-
fortune. Even to oppose him is an
affront. %= @
The opposition to Mr.. Dalzell is very
likely not personal. It is of a piece
with the impatience which is growing
up against members Of congress who
have sat on the tariff lid so long that
the accumulated steam under them is
threatening an eruption. Dalzell would
never learn from reason or argument in
congress anything more or less about
the tariff than he knows now. But g
well-directed prod from his constituents
may perform wonders for even such 8
hopeless subject as Dalzell. And there
are others not a thousand miles from
Minnesota.

THE STORY OF A DARING HUN
TER WITH RIFLE AND CAMERA IN
EAST AFRICA.-No more remarkable
book than Flashlights in the Jungle, by
C. G.. Schillings, hasf appeared for a
long time. The book is simple and
direct narrative Of the experiences Of
Mr.. Schillings with rifle and camera
in East Africa. Mr.. Schillings went not
only as a hunter, but as a naturalist;
specimens that would add to the store
Of human knowledge, but to study; not
to have adventures, but to shed Ii ght
on subjects that needed calculation.
His book is, therefore, not record of
slaughter, but a contribution to nat
ural history, and reading Of the book
will convince anyone that it is a con-
tribution Of very high order. $50 A. > s'<
The author has said he finds photo
graphing, lions an easier, matter than
writing books, yet:he has made a book
numerous wonderful photographs re
produced without ,retouching, all hold
intense interest for the! reader. The
author hunted lions, rhinoceroses,
hippopotami, giraffes5 and everything
else the region affords; he shot speci-
mems and took photographs by daylight
and by fashlight, at night, getting
often within few PAGES Of ferocious
animals; he captured many animals
alive and studied them as psycholo-
gist; he did pretty much everything
that naturalist thirsty for knowledge
might be expected to do in a field Of
fering such opportunities, and he has
put it all into most readable and in
structive form.
| The book contains no more interest
| ing chapter, despite all its records of
thrilling adventures and remarkable
experiences than that on HThe Minds of
Animals One wishes it might have beer
/ longer, and that Mr.. Schillings might
| have gone directly into a discussion Of
the question as to whether animals
think. He does say some things along
that line and gives some examples
which seem to support an affirmative
answer. A. study Of his baby rhinoceros
and what he says about it,, as well a

In the above Mr.. Traube1 is his owr
best critic. His book which is not a
small one, even tho the section of Whit
mans life covered by it is short, gives
a most intimate picture of the poet-sc
intimate that a like story covering lar
ger portion of his life would hardly
seem necessary. 1t shows Whitman un-
prettiied, Whitman with all the 'hells
and damns' and at the same time Whit
man at his best. In the books pages
Whitman speaks his Utmost soul; he dis.
cusses his own work and the works Of
his fellows, life as seen thru reason anG
the life mysterious, man and God, trivia
and profound things. 1t is a book, ir
short, that no one who wishes true
picture of Whitman can afford to ignore
Or, perhaps, it would be better to say
that, aside from Whitman's own writ
ings, 1t is the one book they should moi
Ignore, and one might even question
placing the book second to the books pre-
pared by the poets own hand.

faster than they. Their methods grew
obsolete and they had to give way to
broader men. The broader men who
succeeded them have usually been too
broad, too theoretical.
This appears to be the trouble with
Bingham. It was the trouble with
Partridge, who was appointed by Low.
General Greene appears to have come
nearer uniting the qualities Of soldier
and a policeman than any other ap-
pointee. General Greene did good work
for the New York police and his in.
fuence is still felt in the discipline of
the department.. Mayor Mcclellan is
credited with desire to get rid of
Bingham, and it is said he has his eye
upon General Chaffee, lately retired
from the command of the army, for the
position. General Chaffee, to judge
from his general character, has about
the same qualifications as General
Greene and should make nearly an idea

Mr.. Towne hasn't spoken publicly for
some time, or at least he has not been
quoted so extensively as in his recent
Kansas City speech. This has doubt
less been to his advantage, for it has
saved him from making publicly, at least,
such breaks as he made at Kansas City
when he compared President Roosevelt
to Judas Iscariot That speech Is not
likely to hurt President Roosevelt very
much, but just what effect it's going to
have upon Charley Towne may be worth
thinking about.
