UP GUARDS, AND AT HIM.
Terre Haute's colony of writers and Indiana's population In the literary belt will have a crow to pick with the boojk reviewer on the Minneapolis
Journal. He Is going a lick that will draw down on him the Ire of Mr. Max Ehrmann, Mr. E. V. Debs, Miss Mabel McKee, Prof. "Wickersham and some V'i of pur other notable figures In letters* says a mind might render itself guite handsomely cultivated which peglected every work of fiction pro$uced in America since the death of
Hawthorne. This is Itself a keen Indictment of American writers. But the critic goes 1, farther, declaring that the same mind ', tnight be even better cultivated on acC,1 cdunt of the neglect.
No one will deny that of the thousands of books printed annually,, few riiake for moral and mental culture. But so sweeping a condemnation of all American Action Is assuredly undei served. No reader will suffer from a knowledge of Howells, or Frances
Hodgson Buniett, or Miss Wllkins, or j"*-'1 '-«Wigg/ Murfree, or our own Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews. The critic
Seems to have escaped the fact that it
& -as easy to acquire culture through Acquaintanceship with cultured men and women as It is to read treatises qxi (he subject: Culture, A to Z.
It Is true that American writers have produced little really great fiction. But in the field of short stories •W0 have to our credit numerous brilliant examples. In crying down the Chambers type of "literature," we are f0UL too prone to forget those other writers .who fashion their tales with an eye to ^xtlstic effect rather than to their ability to enthrall the unoritical mind whichseeks after sensation rather \i than art
INDEPENDENCE.
President Wilson's commercial survey of the nation came about the same time as the British blacklist and a study of conditions shows a singular relation Throughout the world there are about 8,000 firms and individuals who are on this list. They are on it not always because they have been selling i goods to the enemies of Great Britain djf" but frequently because goods which they have sold to other firms are supposed eventually to have reached England's enemies. If one of the blacklisted firms is in Holland, for instance, it ,- means that hundreds of American
Arms cannot transact any business yrith that firm. Suppose an American tire manufacturer has been selling rf^^iundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of tires to that Holland firm. -V Unless he cuts off the business at -once he may find that his orders for ,s raw rubber, most of the supply of which England controls, are ignored and unfilled. British dealers would be warned not to supply the American
Arm with any raw materials. The American firm would be put out of business. The 8,000 firms blacklisted have previously been doing business

with hundreds of thousands of customers. There has been much talk about the trade* war of the future, but there is a titantic trade war in progress right now. Meanwhile, Great Britain is taking mighty good care her own trade does not suffer. Her list of absolutely prohibited imports strikes at many American industries, giving complete protection to the equivalent industries of Great Britain. It is not merely control of the seas that gives Great Britain the power to wage war against neutral commerce. It is her extensive control of raw materials. The United States, as the president indicates, should be enlisting the services of her biggest business men for the evolution of an industrial policy which will make this country economically independent of the rest of the world.
"FOR WAYS THAT ARE DARK."
Yuan Shi Kai, according to popular belief in China, is not at all dead. He is thoroughly alive, but in a state of extreme low visibility. A good deal like Colonel Roosevelt in this country. Yuan saw his difficulties increase till there was no way out. The revolution in the south seemed certain to bring his overthrow and a shameful death. The time was ripe for disappearing.
So, according to this popular belief, which already seems likely to become established as an enduring legend, the dictator slipped away Incognito to some remote interior region or to some foreign land, while a corpse or a sack of meal was left behind for obsequies wrhich were excessively private.
No one could have blamed Yuan for wishing to disappear. Never was a man surrounded by a more harassing tangle. He could not see any comfortable egress. But wishing to disappear and actually disappearing are two very different things, especially when one is a nationVs most conspicuous citizen. It Is unlikely that even the craft of Yuan could have worked the miracle.
In all probability Yuan Is quite dead. The Yuan legend may live and do no harm, but China's well wishers will hope that the reactionary system of the dictator died with him and that an era of true enlightenment is dawning for the troubled realm.
THE NEGRO IN MEDICINE.
The negro race has itself produced physicians and surgeons, but its opportunities In this direction have been few. It is therefore an indictment against the white medical practitioner that E. A. Hooton, of the Peabody museum at Harvard, Ijiaakes in the Medical Review of Reviews when he am-

serts that we know little or nothing of the anatomy, physiology, or pathology of the American negro that there has been no attempt to ascertain whether the negro's removal from a tropical to a temperate climate has resulted in adaptations and that a number of questions of interest to the specialist in tropical medicine, the dermatologist, and the physical anthropologist are wholly unsolved, says the New York Post, attacks the narrow attitude of publications like the Southern Medical Journal, as of the physicians at southern medical conferences who have paid their chief attention to the negro in describing his "degeneracy." But the northern scientist as well as the southern is at fault. The opportunities for study are at hand for each and greater use should have been made of them. British medical Investigators have a better record in the special study of the black man.
Baltimore has passed an ordinance requiring"everyone to stand when '"The Star Spangled Banner'' is played. Baltimore feels a particular responsibility for the national hymn and proposes to have it respected, willy nilly.
That woman who complained to the police of the theft of her late husband's ashes can at least be spared the old-time hypothesis that the body was stolen for dissection purposes. The gentleman had been cremated.
