| BOYCOTT ON NEWS KILLS THE NEWS

The German press recently carried the principle of the boycott into the field Of news, giving the world its first illustration of how the thing might be done. Isis a question whether 1t could be done in this country with it's various interests and vast numbers and expause but the German press made 1t stick stick to a standstill. One of the mem- bers of the reichstag reIered to the re- pOrters as "piggish louts." The re- ,porters promptly went on strike until an apology might be forthcoming. The American Press describes the effect as follows:
 The reporters demanded an apology and will probably have got 1t before this reaches our readers. At this writ ing 1t appears that the tongue of elo- queuce is silent in the German parlia- ment. No more does the ornate ora tion of careful preparation or the im- passioned impromptu remark echo through the hIls of Legislation to be caught up and re-echoed by the friend, ly press to the remotesI province of the empire, for 1t appears that the German statesman, like his counterpart in this country, addresses his remarks princi- palIy to his constituents back lu Bun- combe county, Even the great Won Bulow, wbo was to have spoken Mon day, decided to wait until the trouble should have been settled.
 The strike of the reporters seems to be effective. Nearly every newspaper in Germany has sided with them. The foreign news agencies and papers in Austria, Italy, London and St. Peters. burg prOmply came to their support. Not word has been s=nt out since the strike began except the reports of the official news agencies, which the editors  have regularly thrown into the waste baskets,
 Singularly enough, the trosble arose over the negro, Herr GrOeber, leader of the Centrists, imagining that he heard the statement that negroes have immortal souls" made 5y one of his party, jeered in the press gallary. So che Germans have troubles of their own with the race problem.
 German statesmen will probably have more respect for the press in the future than they have had ia the past-at least the type represented by Herr Groeber.

THE LAND GOD FORGOT

The lonely sunsets Hare iorlorn Down valleys dreadly desolate; The lordly mountains soar in scOrn As still as death, as stern as fate The lonely sunsets flame and die: The giant valleys gulp the night; The monster mountains scrape the sky, Where eager stars are diamond
 bright.
 So gaunt against the glbbous moon, Piercing the silence velvet-piIed, A lone wolf hOwls bis ancient rune The fell arch-spirit of the Wild, o Outcast land o lepor laud Let the lone wolt-cry all express The hate insenSate of thy hand, Thy hearts abyssmal loneliness.
