OPENS coRPoRATIoN FIGHT.

La Toilette Seeks to Bar Railroads
From Getting Coal Lands.
Washington, D. Ex-senator La Fol-
lette, of Wisconsin, fired the first gun
in the battle he is expected to wage
against the corporations. 1t was aimed
at railroad ownership of coal lands
The bill to wind up the affairs Of the
Five Civilized Tribes of Indians was
under consideration. 1t contains pro-
vision for the sale of a large quantity
of coal and asphalt lands in Indian
Territory. Senator La Toilette sub
mitted an amendment providing that
no railroad which is a common carrier
should, directly or through its officers
or stockholders, be permitted to pur-
chase any of these coal or asphalt
lands.

New-York tribune., 1906-06-24

achieving a bride, characteristic perhaps OF MS
social environment, is not such as TO commend
itself to American and English novel readers
nor for that matter, to the heroine herself But
Andras is so engaging in his personality SO
generous in his disposition, noble In his char-
acter that he wins sympathy despite ms
ungaIlant wooing Plot and characters alike
are drawn in broad and simple outlines. An
achronistic as is the phase of arrested civiliza-
ton which the author pictures, there is nothing
in the book to challenge probability and much
to charm the imagination. The outcome is all
that could be desired.
The tropical style of Mr.. Deeping does not
gracefully adapt itself to a tale of so modern
a period as even the eighteenth century He re-
quires the Middle Ages to afford full scope to
his luxuriant gift of language. In days of ex-
travagant deeds extravagant words are not in
appropriate to describe them. The more formal
and artificial age of his latest novel, "Bess or
the Woods puts so great restraint upon ms
pen that the resulting formality of style be-
comes almost painful in its artihciality THIS
however is mostly evident in the dialogue. In
his word pictures of Sussex scenery he gives
freer rein to his fancy, involving rather start
ling contrasts he changes from conversation
to description and back again The plot of the
romance is of conventional simplicity. The hero,
Richard Jeffray, an Englishman brought up in
Italy inherting a large estate and returning
to his native land, is introduced to the uncon-
genial society of the hard drinking fox hunting
squirarchy of the county. Inveigled into an en-
gagement with a passe beauty of the neighbor-
hood, his real affections are engaged by beau
tiful maiden whom he meets in the woods-Bess,
the daughter of outlaws and smugglers Bess is
wanted for a wife by of the outlaw band,
a bury ruffian, whom she lOathes Jeffray in
terferes TO save her from him. not with entire
success, and becomes involved in a number Of

and in eloping with his sylvan sweetheart, who.
or course, turns out to be a person of gentle
birth, stolen in childhood. Bess stands out in
the story as singularly strong. sweet and at
tractive personality i'll mated indeed to the
quite unheroic hero.
To make enjoyable and amusing in print the
relation of personal idiosyncrases which would
be inoerable if encountered in real life is a nice
art. 1t is an art in which Mrs. Warner seems to
have shown herself shilfu in her accounts of
the one part conversations of Susan Clegg with
her neighbor, Mrs. Lathrop. But we are con-
strained TO confess that Miss Clegg appeared in
a far more amusing light in the earlier sketches
in which she figured than she does in this latest
collection. The incidents and Susan's manner
of relating them are just as funny, but they be-
gin to bore US instead of continuing to amuse us.
Doubtless there are two reasons for this In
the first place, however odd and unexpected
Susan's conversational methods, she is bore.
And while it is quite likely that to listen to her
for little while in real life would be as anus
ing as to read about her, to have to listen TO
her whether one wanted to not, as poor Mrs.
Lathrop did, would drive person frantic. In
fact, little of Susan is enough. and more
than little is too much. In the second place,
1t becomes evident after while that Mrs. War
ner has developed a formula for Susan; and
once it is possible to perceive the formula, Susan
ceases to have any reality or spOntaneity and
becomes merely a piece of clever word juggling
1t was unfortunate. too, that in three instances
in the present volume the author should have
sought for subjects for humorous treatment in
circumstances associated with death and fu-
nerals.

IMPORTANT EDUCATIONAL CON.
 FERENCE.

In one sense. the most interesting and important educational conference held in the south in the last ten years is the conference called by President Alderman to meet at the University of Virginia on November ee22 to 2i This conference will bring together the presidents of seven state universities, the presidents of all Eif- sinia colleges, the state saperihtehd- ents of education in the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Ten nessee, Alabama, Georgia and Virginia, and the professors of secondary edu- cation in the same states, and certain experts in agricultural education.
 The conference is notable because it is the first thoroueh=goins attempt on the part of those in higher eduea ton to reach down to the secondary schools and aid in relating them prop erly 10 the schools below and the schools above No American state, un less it be Wisconsin, possesses an ideal system of secondary education. Tn most of them an unfortunate gap exists between the elementary schools and the colleges, and by reason of this gap one-half of the most capable chil- dren of the commonw ealths have no open road to a complete education.
 IT is n splendid sign when the col le8es and universities come to see that the hig hschool is a real tie, bind- ing together the two separated parts of a common process To multiply the high schools, to search their course of study, to unify them in their relation to other forms of education is about the best educational problem noW before he people
