"PJNJI iw Our grocery depart ment contains every thing in that line high-class goods, low est prices. - The Reader Hall Caine and Marie Corelli are the victims of "The Literary Guillo tine" in the February number of The Reader, and a more amusing piece of literary satire cannot well be im agined. "The Correlli-ing of Caine" it is called and tho fun begins when the two authors meet in their cells while awaiting trial. The trial does not last long, but it never lags and is full of good things worthy u the reputation of the judges, Mark Twain and Oliver Herford. Here is a quota tion showing the irrepressible Mr. Herford to advantage: "Yes. just one question, Mr. Caine. Now, I have here a copy of 'The Eter nal City.' and on page 6 I find a sam ple of Roma's talk when she was a baby. I'll read part of it aloud: 'Oo a boy? . . . Oo me brodder? . . . Oo lub me? . . . Oo lub me eber and eber?' Now, Mr. Caine, I want to ask you this: Is that, in your opinion, an accurate reproduction of the manner in which children talk?" "Yes, sir, absolutely at least, of the manner in which Manx children talk." "Oh, I see!" said Herford "their words haven't any tails, have they? I have finished with the prisoner, your uonor." The. Reader has numerous other contributions of interest, notably a very frank article, "Italy. in Fiction," by Amy A. Bernardy. The writer is evidently an Italian and discusses, without gloves, the misrepresentations of Italian life to be found in the fic tion of Mr. Marion Crawford, Mrs. Humphrey Ward, Marie Corelli, Hall Caine and Ouida. Other contributors to this number include William Wal lace Whitelock, Clinton Scollard, Dou glas Story, John Paul Bocock and Bliss Carman. The Reader- continues to show individuality, and is full of en tertaining reading for intelligent read ers. It is a magazine not to be missed. Different Now Editor Independent: When the re publicans had control of our govern ment, the postoffice department wa3 the pride of the nation; but since John Bull and the Jews got control, they seem to think they have a perfect right to interfere with any mail mat ter they choose, especially if it does not indorse their views. It's about time some poonle in the United States were turning "boxers." John Bull is no longer English, but a Jew. What's the difference between a John Bull republican and a gold-bug democrat.' (One doesn't know anv better and the other' does Ed. Ind.) The coal barons make much of nroD- erly rights in their dealings with the labor element, but in their dealings with the men who hold the mortgages they stand silently by and see their property, or the greater part of it, confiscated or appropriated and nev er say a word about property rights. . E. C. SCOTT. . Ray, N. Y. J. L. Duffin, Oshkosh, Neb.: Pleasa answer through The Independent whether or not Holcomb was a su preme judge when Bartley was con victed. (No; Holcomb became su preme judge in January, 1900; he was elected in the fall of 1899. Ed. Ind.) J. P. Potter, Naples, N. Y.: I am very much pleased with The Indepen dent and will do all I can to help you along. I am first a Lincoln re publican, next a populist and free sil ver man, and now am a Bryan democrat.
