pear that the contributors have the
idea of exploiting a specific region
which they think has been neglected.
western America, with its wealth. OF
majestic scenery" we are told, is an
almost untouched field. and that II has
not been visited by many artists is an
added reason for the existence OF TINS
society. Thousands of people visit the
American and Canadian Rockies the

splendid Grand Canyon, and there IS
growing surprise that impressions OF
these beautiful parts Of our country are

season in New York and continued
through various cities of the Middle
West. II reused wide interest. The
plan, evidently, is to keep that interest
alive.
1t is a good plan. abstractly consid-
cred. But everything depends, or
course, upon what these artists make
of their inspiration, and the first
thought provoked by the present coll
lection is that the painter who is TO stir
us with a sense of the beauty that lies
in the Far West must give that beauty
something like exhaustive study. We
do not know just how long each men,

Next TO the strikingly beautiful head

Of this number Is the article by the
Hon. Albert E. Pillsbury, former at
torney general OF Massachusetts. Mr..
Pilisbury contends that under the
fourteenth amendment there is a clear
federal remedy for lynching. and he
outlines a bill calculated to meet this
national disgrace.
The latest statistics on Negro-Amer-

letter to a southerner on lynching.

the pleasantest and most encouraging
piece Of news which the Crisis ever
