Publishing
Subjecto Of
Ellsworth

1t would be difficult to choose
a list of books for our grandchild
ren to read from those written be-
tween 1900 and 1915, said Will
lam Webster Ellsworth, of the
Century Magazine, who lectured
last night in Waller hall chapel
on the subject Forty Years of
Publishing" But the same task
would be easy for Mr.. Ellsworth
II given the range from 1850 to
1900. Books like Adam Bede and
the Scarlet Letter, whose charac-
ters have human fundamentals,
are not being written now," said
Mr.. Ellsworth.
He did not seem overly pessi-
mistic about present day litera-
ture, however, and had a good
word to speak for the short story,
especially the American produc-
tion. In America the women are
doing as notable work as the men,
he declared.
During his many years on the
Century, the last three of which
he was editor, Mr.. Ellsworth. has
made the acquaintance Of many
literary men of this country and
England, His repertoire of anec-
todes concerning them kept his
audience last night in laughter.
The audience, however, was de-
plorably small. Mark Twain came
for his full share of mention. His
stories were first refused by st.
Nicholas, said Mr.. Ellsworth, be-
cause their author was SO miser-
ably dressed. Later St. Nicholas
and all other magazines were clam
oring to print any work of this
author they could obtain.
The incident of how Frank
Stockton's famous hoax story
came to be called 1.-THE Lady Of
the Tiger" was especially inter
esting. This story Stockton had
named "The Kings Arena" and
after turning it over to the pub
fishers he had gone to Europe.
Some one in the office of the Cen
tury conceived the name it was
Ilater published under and which
perhaps is responsible for much
of the fame gained by the work.
Hopkinson Smith came to publish
his stories because someone in the
Century office became more than
interested in their oral telling and
persuaded Mr.. Smith to put them
down.
Joseph Jefferson, whose auto
biography is famous, wanted this
work published in gilt edged
book, said Mr.. Ellsworth. 1t was
only after much persuasion that
he allowed the Century to publish
Iit.
other "reminiscences were OF
Major Pond, Jack Long, Mrs. Bur-
nett, Margaret Deland, e. p. Roe
Luther Burbank, ThomsonSea-
ton, Henry James, Rudyard Kip
ling, Walt Whitman, Brete Hart
and many others. Mr.. Ellsworth
says he believes the publishing
game is the very greatest and that
he came into it at it's most inter-
esting period.
The story of the suppression OF
an interview with the German EN-
peror in 1908 was told by Mr.
Ellsworth. Newspapers never
found out, he said, how the Cen
tury after having the entire inter
view printed could so completely
nut it out of existence,

SERVICE

Successful operation of public
utilities is advantageous to a COM
munity. Good service means pro-
gress. Poor public utility service
spells economic loss.
The success of a public. utility,
like the success of any other bust
ness, depends upon liberal patronage
from residents of the community it
serves.
1t is matter of mutual interest
for the community and the operators
of the public utility, that the service
shall be sufficient and satisfactory.
The property owner, the manu-
facturer, the merchant, the salaried
man, the wage earnerAall are inter-
ested in maintaining adequate pub
lie utility service. Without it their
property values and incomes would
be materially reduced.
No other single institution is per-
haps so important to the civic pro-
gress.

A SANE IMMIGRANT POLICY.

Canada has launched the greatest i'm
migration effort in its history. The Can
adian Colonization Association in con-
junction with the Overseas Settlement
Fund of Great Britain has planned to
bring thousands of desirable settlers to
vacant lands in the provinces. In this
effort Canada will spend between 30 and
40 millions of dollars.
Canada's present population from coast
to coast approximates 10,000000. It's
last census showed very little growth in
the number of its people. With vast ter
ritories unoccuped, containing agrcul~
tural possibilities and natural resources
development Of which is necessary for its
material advancement, Canada has every
reason for promoting growth of popula-
tion through immigration. Canada has
possibilities of wealth of magnitude
SURPRISING that of majority of the ma
tions Of the world.
But Canada is not going into this i'm.

PROTECTION UNDER A SHIP SUBSIDY

Col. Robinson, President of the Ameri-
can Manufacturers Export Association,
voiced a great truth when he declared
that development of an American Mer-
chant Marine would benefit the whole
country as well as ship owners.
Promotion of foreign trade, and the
retention of hundreds of millions OF dol
lars a wear of freight charges in this
country. the employment of over nun
dred thousand Americans on ships, III the
shin wards and in allied trades such as
the steel mills and iron mines, and the
creation of a naval reserve so that 1t will
never again be necessary to create fleet
at cost of three billion dollars in an
emergency, are some Of the benefits
which Col. Robinson pointed out would
flow from the establishment of an ade-
quate Merchant Marine on the high seas.
And he is right in his contention.
TRANSPORTATION is essential to industrial
prosperity; and for transportation, ocean
going vessels are as important in their
own way as railroads or inland water
ways. There are many people who, while
they are ready to concede this principle,
are opposed to a ship subsidy. These
people are of the sort who balk at words
and are frightened by shadows. No one
will deny that America is committed to a
policy of protection and what is a mer-
chant marine but the policy of protection
applied to transportation instead of to
manufacturers?
1t merely extends in another direction
subsidizing processes long in effect but
not generally recognized as such because
they are not so labeled. What are re-
clamation projects and irrigation DAMS
such as the Colorado River Commission is
now considering at Santa Fe,-set up by
the federal government in cooperation
with certain states, if not form of sub
sidy to land owners, stock raisers and
agriculturists? What are the advances
made through federal aid for nighawys?
Subsidy. What is the War Finace Cor
poration? Subsidy. What are the farm
mortgage banks if not to provide to those
concerned at least an indirect subsidy?
These are all a fair application of 3
principle with which the public IS thor
oughly familiar. Then why deny its po
tential value in other ways because il
happens to come under another designa
ton? In the last analysis it is merely
quibbling over words.
What Abraham Lincoln once said in The
defense of the principle of protection ap
plies equally in the case of ship sub
sidy "If buy pair of trousers abroad
for $1,000, I have the trousers and they
have the $1,000; if l buy them at homo
for $1,000, | have the trousers and W.
have the $500 at home" The same
reasoning applies to our owning ships; We
have the ships and we also have tht
money which we spend for freight. Il
ether words, like protection, it is dis
tinctly American policy.
