MAJORITY Will
EXCEED $4,000
ROBINSON LEADS TICKET
SHORT LEGISLATIVE AND BOND
ARE MOST POPULAR MEAS
URES VOTED UPON.

Little Rock, Sept. 11.-About the
only certainty about the election of
Monday is the tremendous majority
that was polled for Joe r. Robinson
for governor. 1t is estimated that his
majority will exceed $4,000, or more
than cast for George w. Donaghey
in 1910. He defeated Judge Roland
easily by a vote of 3 to /.
The bond amendment has probably
carried in the state, but the vote is
running very close in Pulaski county,
just about breaking even. The grand
father clause has been defeated in
Pulaski county, by the heavy negro
vote, and the fact that great many
Democrats also voted against it. Its
fate instate at large is matter of con-
lecture as yet.
The short legislative session amend
ment appears to have been the most
popular of all the nine measures sub
mitted, and there is no doubt of it's
having carried. The recall amend
ment is running well in places, but
the opinion is that it will not carry.
The vote on the other propositions
has in many instances been over
Swallowed, and their fate is matter
of conjecture, with the prospect that
many of them will be defeated, judg-
ing from the trend toward the oppo-
sition.
Both the liquor and the prohibition
forces are claiming victory on the
statewide vote. The liquor forces are
claiming a number of new counties,
among them, Perry, Hampstead, Mil
Ter, Ouachita, Polk and Jackson,
while they will not admit defeat in
any of the counties which are now
wet They claim also to have fight
ing chance yet to carry Craighead,
Cross, evier and several other coun-
ties where the vote is regarded as be-
ing very close.
The prohibition forces are not con-
ceding defeat, although a report to
that effect has been sent out, and
claim that the 10000 majority alleged
by the liquor men is unfounded in the
returns at hand Supt. Barrett said
this morning: "Among the counties
reported to us today as having gone
dry and for statewide are Lee, Wood
ruff, St. Francis, White, Greene and
Union. A report sent out that
Faulkner county, the home of Gov,
Donaghey, had gone wet is not true
as it has gone for state wide by about
500 majority. The indications are
that we stand a good show TO win. II
the country goes as it always has
against liquor, and it looks like it will
the country vote will overcome the bic
majorities in the cities. So far there
have been only scattering reports
from the country"
The prohibition forces had depend
ed largely upon the anti-hcense vote
but the result proves that this was
not a proper criterion. Some eoun
ties that have been voting against Ii
lcense, as Columbia, for instance
voted against statewide. Indication;
are that several counties that hav,
not been wet for years, have switched
over to that side.
The indications on the various
measures for Pulaski county are a

ART IN SCOTLAND.

When the traveller interested In the
old masters thinks OF the public treas
ures Of Great Britain he thinks, auto
matically, OF the National Gallery in
London. But for some years the pro-
vlncial museums have been making
great strides. Civic pride has reacted
favorably upon their fortunes, and as
these local collections have increased
in Importance they have enlisted the
good will Of the entire country. Britons
everywhere now give friendly thought
to the interests Of the galleries outside
the capital. one Of the best OF these,
and, Of late one Of the luckiest, is the
National Gallery OF Scotland. Ten
years ago It received from Parliament
an annual grant OF 100, which sum
II had TO share with the National Por-
trait Gallery, and it occupied build
ing with the Academy. Since then,
however. there has been carried on
what "The London Times" calls "a
persistent assault on the Treasury"
and now, thanks largely TO the efforts
OF Lord Balfour of Burleigh, both the
Academy and the National Gallery
have buildings Of their own and much
larger sum Of money Is annually as
signed for the purchase Of works OF

and was the friend Of Gainsborough
and other contemporary artists But
his library raised him above all his
royal predecessors as a collector Of
books. At his succession in 1850 the
shelves of the royal library were
empty, and he set TO work with ex-
traordinary enthusiasm to amass
wonderful collection. In this task he
founded sympathetic help from the
Queen. She and one Of her maids, We
are told, used to haunt the old book
shops in Holywell street and Ludgate
Hill In 1862 the King acquired the
library of Joseph Smith at a cost Of
10000. and for "seven or eight years
the shops and warehouses Of English
booksellers were also sedulously ex-
amined and large purchases were made
from them In this labor DR.. johnson
often assisted, actively as well as by
advice" His majesty's illegitimate
brother, Mr.. Barnard, was sent to the
Continent on a book hunt, and alto
gether the King spent about 1900
year on his library, which consisted OF
about 65,250 books, exclusive OF the
pamphlets, which filled about loo
cases.
When the King died his successor, It
appears, wished TO sell the collection to

lies elsewhere. It lies where, accord
ing to some of our latter day COM
mentators, one ought never to look for
it, in the subject. Rembrandt, being
man of genius, was also man OF nina
and emotion. His art is saturated with
these elements. Take, for example, his
own portrait, which he repeated again
and again. Studying himself In dll-
ferent attitudes and costumes ne IN
terprets himself also in different moods
and in the spell of sheer humanity
these plates are as rich as any he ever
drew. 1t is interesting to reflect on the
profound good faith, the disinterested-
ness, with which he etched himself. He
liked TO look in the mirror when he
was on parade, so to say, with all MS
harness on, as IN the sumptuous
Rembrandt Leaning on Stone SILL
but we may see him, too, in homespun'
mr. at work. and never, we may be sure.
in the smallest degree fiattered' Inc
rigorous truth is no less unmistakaple
in his portraits of himself than In his
study of some casual beggar. Inc
plates in question form an indispensa-
BILE part Of his biography. And now
beautiful they are With what mas
sive strength does he build up form
and with what Incompatible linear
delicacy does he develop its most
elusive details! At one moment his
technique appeals to you simply and
solely as a means to an end, and in the
next you are absorbed in it for its own
sake.
The marvel of it comes out above all
in the artists prodigious range. This
exhibition has been judiciously ar
ranged, illustrating every aspect Oh

effects in which the virtuosi OF the
camera are wont to deal. How is one
to resist dabbling in those soft tones
when they come out so well? And
how, since they are so very pleasing,
can one help believing that there is in
them a certain Brightness" a certain
artistic virtue? The enthusiast only
wakes the more enthusiastic. When
"old-fashioned" photography did not
precisely go out, but at all events had
TO make room for a mode more in har-
mony with a changing taste, the In
novators were careful not to go too far.
Clever Mrs Cameron, in her well re-
membered photographs of Tennyson,
Browning and other Victorian nota-
bilities, adroitly heightened the pictu-
resdueness Of her subject, but never
dreamed OF romanticizing 1t out of all
knowledge. Hollyer. the London
photographer, who made a name for
himself through his reproductions Of
the paintings Of Watts and the pre-
Raphaelites, and presently became
known for his portraits, too, showed
the same wise restraint. But more re-
Gently all that has been changed.
Photography is not the servant Of the
subject. The subject is the servant Of
Photographic not its victim.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1912-10-13

Scriptural subjects are here, as we'll
as the landscapes and portraits; some
of the studies Of everyday country life
are shown, and the strange "Faustus"
is duly included. Where, indeed, is
one to designate the point at which
he passed from one sphere Of thought
to another? No line Of demarcation Is
really discernible. 1t was one teeming
world in which he lived, a world of
tangible things illuminated and en-
HANGED by an imaginative glow.
Though his vision ranged far his feet
rested upon the solid earth. He read
his Bible in very human fashion.
Witness that amazing piece, "The
Angel Ascending from Tobias and
His Family" Something miraculous
is plainly going forward, mystery and
terror are in the air, but the rout Of
animals in the dark foreground has
the movement and weight of a thing
seen on some Dutch farm, and the
celestial figure in it's flood Of light is
drawn with a curious naivete, a SYM
boil Of childlike faith. There Is
nothing more characteristic of Rem
brandt. What makes him so poignant
is the homely simplicity of what he
has to say. Even at his grandest, as
in the Christ Crucified Between Two
Thieves" he humanizes a tragic scene
and thereby makes 1t the more touch
ing. He is at once the rudest OF
realists and the most tenderly init
mate of them all. His "Tobit Blind"
which is fairly classical in its large
dignity Of form, is also design of the
most searching pathos. When he draws
THE Flight Into Egypt" he draws
peasant family on its travels, but
through some subtle emotional art he
envelops the little picture in its proper
sacred atmosphere. So before one mas.
terpiece after another we finger, now
appreciative of his supreme technical
mastery but now almost forgetful Of
that, responding, rather. to his grave,
more spiritual inspiration. It is good
thing to be thus drawn away for q
time, above the humdrum plane of IA
miliar life.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1912-10-13

sterdam, and lamented not that its in
Dutch master is perhaps the greatest
exemplar In history Of that art which
is not only based upon life, but cheer
fully accepting existing conditions, ex-
torts beauty from the most unpromis-
ing material. Velasquez had his sin
cerity, with something Of his trans
figuring power, showing III those early
bode0oneS OF his how the humblest
subject OF the streets or of the tavern
might be raised to a higher power
through fineness of form and color,
through the skilful handling Of light
and shade, and through the magic Of
style. But Valasquez was man Of an
essentially fastidious nature, and his
imagination, which made him free of
the characters of his sitters, was
nevertheless specialized and limited in
scope. The force Of circumstances and
the natural development Of his genius
combined TO make him a great court
painter. 1t is ordinarily worse than
idle to speculate as to what an old
master might have done If the external
affairs of his life had been different
from those actually recorded. Yet II Is
reasonable to surmise that whether he
had been taken into the service OF
Philip or not the Spanish painter would
still have remained untouched by the
religious exaltation which visited
Titan, say, or by the dramatic passion
characteristic of Rembrandt. The lat
ter, consummate in technique. was also
consummate in feeling. That is why a
collection of his works has always
something invigorating about it. some
thing TO refresh and steady the tudg-
ment.
There is an exhibition Of his etchings
at the Kennedy Gallery. 1t is made up
OF more than a hundred important
plates, and many of these are visible in
rare and beautiful impressions from
noted collections. The connoisseur will
pause delighted before some examples
of exquisite printing, prints Of sill
yern clarity and others, like that OF the
renowned Three Trees" possessing
positively resonant brilliance. II Is a
pleasure by itself to follow these nice
ties Of quality through the collection.
But the compelling interest Of the show
