Joaquin Miller's Ultimate Appeal to Posterity

WOAQUIN MILLER, poet Of the
Sierras. singer OF the shutdown
- seas. the vlrile bard of western
America, has just completed
what may be his final revision of his
poems. Five volumes have been issued,
and the sixth and last is going through
the presses Of his san Francisco pub
fishers. This definitive edition Of Mr..
MilIer's metrical works contains such
poems as his mature Judgment approves
TOR preservation. Their publication is
an event in the literary world. for the
fame of this writer has penetrated to
the remotest places where the English
tongue is spoken.
Mr.. Miller's first volume is devoted
mainly to a prose presentation Of his
theories regarding poetic purposes and
contains a great deal of autobiograph-
ical data which serves TO explain to
some extent his uncommonly pictur-
esque career. The poet. who is hale
and hearty at sixty-eight and by no
means an aged man, feels keenly the
unlxind and often vicious criticisms
which have been launched forth against
HIS individuality and his so called &C.
centricities. For forty years he has
been a shining mark for the petty sting
darts of undivining penny-a-liners,
though latterly his high recognition as
a natural born poet and his faithful
adherence to his ideals have worked a
distinct change in the attitude of the
press. 1t would be puerile to dispute
that Joaquin Miller is the most famous
Of living American poets and of living
English writing poets, for that matter.
Yet his limited acceptance in the east
ern part OF the United States is stand
ing reproach to those who ought to
know actual poetry when they hear Il
singing itself into the warp and nber Of
the language.
England accepted Joaquin Miller
nearly forty years ago as the most orig
inal, natural and poetic singer in Amer
Tea. Even our American Ambrose
Bierce. who sometimes writes with a
stab sword dipped in vinegar and Wit
riol for ink. has declared that only Poe

crusade For Parcels Post.

John Brisben Walker, former maya
zine publisher, has announced that he
intends to spend the next five years II
necessary in advocating the establish
ment of a parcels post system in the
United States whereby packages may
be sent through the mails at a rate OF
about / cent a pound. Mr.. Walker de-
MES that such a system would enable
the mail order houses TO crush out the
local mechants. He says the town
merchants would be able to order goods
for their customers through the mall
order houses by catalogue and thus
could increase their patronage.
