It is no longer a question of party, for there are friends and foes on both sides, and it seems to have reached a point where some strong men will have to leave the ranks of both, and establish a party that will give the backbone of the nation, the farmers, an equal chance with the great manufacturing interests of the country, who seems to flourish under present conditions.

Detroit News. Are Stevenson s Books to Stand Time's Test? The bishop of Durham in his oration at the Stevenson commemoration dinner indirectly raised the question whether physical disabilities are a handicap to individual distinction in life. His observations suggest that weakness in one sense may be the path to greatness in another. Robert Louis Stevenson was an only son and u chronic invalid. His physical weakness, like Scotts lameness and Byrons club foot, the bishop remarked, tended to Induce in him an almost morbid cult of virility. The bishop wound up his address with a question to which Stevenson enthusiasts of the present day would admit of but one answer. When his books had to stand nakedly on their merits would they be able to hold their own against the rival claims of new works armed with all the subtle appeal of direct relevance to the time fupresent? When we think of the rore over the Waverly novels for long after they were published and of the apathy regarding Scott in the present generation, no one can answer the bishops question dogmatically.
