about the Century company they would
have rested on the laurels they ac

quickly demonstrated lo them that pen

would over do good work. Quiet critiob
commented On the inequality of the il

recognized that they had struck a false

backto wood engraving. They have

a magazine two serial articles' written

It is strange that so Herculean a task
should bo assumed by company in far off
San Francisco. But Hubert Bancroft ,
the historian of the Pacific slope , is no
common man , and as It is his company
that has made the venture , it is certain
that it will bo carried on precisely as
has been promised. This means that
every year the firm will publish six \ol-
umcs like the ono just issued. The
work is the continuation of "American
Reports and Digests" published in the
east from 1809 to 1833 , in sixty-throe
volumes , and this was itself a continua
tion of the American "Decisions and Di
gests , " in 103 volumes , which covered
all the period from colonial times to
1S59. The publishers seem to have felt
that with nil the concentration possible ,
and with the utmost rigidity in selcc-
, lon it was impo-tslblq to present the re
ports in less than six annual volumes.
I'ertalnly the task is ft momentous one ,
and in other hands than Hubert Bcin-
: roft's tlid publication of the work in
Snn Francisco would hayo raised much
loubt that so heavy a burden could bo
jornc. Ills name , however , is sulllclcnt
[ juaruntce.
The work itself Is n necessity , but it
requires Bisnmrckian powers of cidlting
.0 keep within the prescribed six col
umns , and iu the near future when the
