From the Washington Post.
 When old Simon Cameron was hunt ing for George Alfred Townsend-or was it Dom Piatt?-on newspaper row, Fourteenth street northwest, in this blessed town, in the late sixties, he de- scribed the man he was looking for as "one of them literary fellers." As for the particulars of the episode. there was a dashing widow and an umbrella mixed up in it; but that is way back wonder in the twilight between the newspaperdom of that day and the jour nalism of this, and is of non import. The material thing is that old Simon. himself a printer-and the editor who is not fellow with his printer is not fit for his job-the material thing is that Uncle Simon called us literary"
 And here comes story across the water that the most wonderful, if ad- ulous, of all the literary fellows, damned or saved, the world of letters has yet seen-even John Bunyan-was a. plagiarist and that he appropriated "Pil- grim's Progress from a translation of a French work printed by Caxton In l433 with the title "Pylgrimage of the Sowle."
 It is not unlikely there was such a work. There is history for it that Dr.. Johnson would not have written one of his masterpieces had he not before read a certain production of Voltaire; but who would accuse Johnson of plagiarism? It is possible. even probable. that somebody imagined the greatest of allegories be- fore Bunyan was born; but it is in- conceivable that he had read that some bodys production, and if perchance he did, he improved on it. as Shakespeare | did in numerous instances
 | The hypercritical will tell you that Ed gar Allen Poe got "The Raven" from an 1 Italian. It may be he did, for In Poes s age there was little new thought in literature; but if he stole it, and it is almost impossible that he did. letters are under perennial obligation to him for the theft. He knew what to do with it and "The Raven" helped to set him on the pedestal-the indisputed first man of letters of the western hemisphere.

Direct Primaries In New York

Speaker Wadsworth, who is a ma chine leader, and therefore opposed to Governor Hughes direct-primary pro- gramme, narrowly escaped defeat in the New York election, and many of the governors influential opponents fell by the wayside. Still, only the lower house was chosen in the recent election. The old senate remains, and it may again reject the Hughes bill. If so, the issue goes over to the election of next year, when a victory of the Hughes faction in the republican party is we'll assured. The democrats are as a rule committed to direct nomina- tions.
 The best opinion is that Wadsworth will be elected speaker by a narrow majority, and that he will name com mittees opposed to Governor Hughes plan. The fight will, however, be brought on in some form, and the con- Vention members will be compelled to face the heartened direct primary men. It is not probable that a bill directed against the convention system can be passed next winter, but progress will be made, the agitation maintained, and basis laid for an appeal to the people next November. This will call for the renomination of Gov. Hughes, and when he runs on the primary issue the republican bosses from Raines to Wadsworth will find themselves in a box

A Week From Today

The fate of the proposed amend ment to the constitution seeking to write prohibition in the organic law of the state will be settled at the polls one week from today. Everything points not only to the defeat of this in- tolerable measure, but to a crushing defeat.
 It has been a bitter campaign from the start-far too bitter; but no politi- cal contest since reconstruction days the liberties of the people, and the wrath engendered has been in the na- ture of righteous indignation against those who would build up a political machine based in tyranny and fanati- cism. The flower of Alabama's man. hood is aroused and freemen have but to stand shoulder to shoulder to win a memorable victory of right over wrong.
 Many good men having lost sight of the great principle involved in this is sue. have been induced to support the amendment. Many we'll meaning men will vote for it. But large majority of the sturdy farmers and a large ma jority of the truest and bravest men in all walks of life will vote the other way. Certain it is that no man, young or old, will make a mistake in follow ing the lead of the five living ex-gov- ernors, the two Senators, a majority of the Congressmen and host of pa- triots recognized and known as the "Old Guard"
 Let every Iberty-loving voter do his duty on November 29, and the majori- ty against the amendment will be a yeritable landslide.
