NOUMAI.I.V closi', the Kniplic
itnto witi this ,vrni' uuulo tU'
li.ttnblo l n number of
s-pcclnl causes. Flist of these
ai the (llMirfrctlon of tlio Kioiit cor
poi.ito Intel ests. It luul two ouii'C".
The cliiuf of those was losentinent of
the lefonns in titration wrought by
tlovoinor Oiloll, by which bin dens lifted
fioni le.'il estnte wete placed on the
coiponitloiis. Roosinelt liml rullled the
corporation1 by his luiiicliNe tax.
Then when OuVH not only lefued to
penult a iepe.il of this tnv but added
other forms of tavitiou, tliev became
Kunulnely alarmed. They hcpliett the
nomination of C'olcr, effected the solid
ifle.itlon of the Hill and Clo eland fac
tions of the Bemoci joy and fuinlhed
llbeially tlie sinews of war. For the
lit st time in many yeaif. the Republi
can campaign tieastiry was fiusal In
funds.
The other sotuoe of the eoipoi.ite an
tagonism to Odell was his political
ti iendllness to Piesldeiit ftooevelt and
the idea that his defeat would consti
tute a punishment ot the latter because
t Ills vlgotous piosecutlon of tiusts
and his evident sympathy with organ
ized labor. The pait taken by Odell In
efiectlng a settlement of the coal stilKc
no doubt contilbuted to the coipoiate
opposition to his le-elettion.
Aside front tlie oorpoiatlons, theie is
leason to bellce that Odell had to face
a considerable the fioni within the
ranks of the Republican oigunliMtlon.
The sweeping economies Introduced by
him in administrative expenses threw
many party woiket.s out of places of
piofit and piominence. His stubborn
assertion of ofllolal Independence and
his refusal to take humiliating oidcis
gave offense to numbeis of oig.inlatlon
wlieel-hoi.ses, by whom tlies-e attitudes
were unexpected and who looked upon
them as little less than tteasonable.
There is no evidence to com let Senator
Piatt of lukewaininess in Odell's be
half; but it Is noteworthy that Odell
had piactlcally to oiganlne ills own
i.impaign and make his tight well-nigh
single-handed.
That under these handicaps he has
won, albeit by a nairow niaigin, is
creditable to the undei lying good judg
ment of the Xew York votei s. The ti I
umph of Din id R. Hill would have been
a national misfortune, since Hill, -with
all ills intellectual forte and cunning,
is essentially Inslnceie and untiust,-woithy.
The corpoiatlons who stiuck at
.Roosevelt over Odell's bead will hme
to strike again.
The Education BUI.
Tin": ruocnriDixap in the
House of Commons on the
opening of the Eiitish par
liament were prcnionitoiy of
the political ordeal which the 'i'oiy
government will have to face dining
the lemalnder of tlie session. The
ministry has to controut two gjeat is
sues, Ireland and tlie IMucatlon bill,
either of which might lead in easily
conceivable contingencies to Its over
tin ow. Two inoi e contentious subjeols
could jfot occupy the attention of the
house.
Tito education bill in its main fea
tuies provides for the further endow
ment of what nio known as denomina
tional schools, schools in other woids
which are under tlie management of
, liutch of Unglaud cleigymuu. Theso
schools havo nil nloiiR lecelved n stiini

null tho Foster JMuctttlou Act oflSTO,
piactlcally the only pi hunt y public
schools In Ijiiglnnd' wete those main
tained by tlie Anglican chinch; they
ltcclw-tl no state aid and tellod wholly
for their suppott on voluntary contil
butlons. Tlial act, one of the most
bi'iielltent In the hlstoiy of Jhlttsh leg
lAlatlou, ttansfcired the responsibility
of educating the people ftoin voluntaiy
effort to tho state. II was accom
plished mi a bio.id and nutgmiiilmotts
lusls In Its secular conception, it ex
cluded the teaching of religion, how
over, In any foini, eveepl the tending
of the Rlble without gloss or comment.
From this fact the Intel mluable and
not edifying coillllct between Chuicli
inen and Xon-Confoi mists lias con
tinued (luting the last thirty yeais.
The dlfTleully lies fat too deep for po
litical letucdv. It Is piliuurlly a le
llglotis cutest Inn, or, lather, a denomi
national one. The Hrltlsh Non-Con-fot
mists are opposed to a, slate church
on hlstoileal and conscientious giounds.
The illssentots constitute the gtcnt
bulk of tho Tjlberal parly and while
that paity Is not piepnicd to dlsestab
sh and disendow the Church of Eng
land; wlille public .sentiment Is far from
ripe for a indtcal dissolution of church
and stale, the opposition, as custodian
of the "Xon-Conformlst conscience," Is
bitterly opposed to any further endow
ment of the chut eh schools.
Mr. Chamberlain, who Is himself a
leading Xon-Confoimlst, in a speech
which he made some time ago, declined
that while he thought that the educa
tion bill might be linpioved, the gov
ernment was piepaied to stand 01
fall by It. .Mr. Ralfour's decimation in
the house of commons that the bill
would not lie withdrawn means that
the bill will pass. The government
malm Ity In the house of commons Is
extiavaganlly huge, too large, that Is
to say, to Indicate dearly the balance
of enlightened public opinion upon a
fundamental question of domestic pol
icy that scarcely, if at all, attracted
tlie teasoned Judgment of the people
at the last geneial election.
The thie.it of the Xon-Confoi mists
to lefuse to pay tlie taxes that 1he
(duration bill in opeiatlon will necessi
tate need not be taken seiiouly. A
1 1 iv fanatics may do so and be sent to
jail for their obdiuacy; but no one in
England supposes lliat theie will lie
uciuY, or uiul uit'ir e.xamjiic w 111 pune
contagion". To kindle and sustain the
vital llnmp ol a national levolt against
general taxation demands fagots and
tinder enough for a i evolution or a le
belllon. The education bill may be
shoit-slghted in piinclple and faulty
in detail, but it. is not vicious or menac
ing enough to endanger the public
pc ace.
Ren Odell might have had moio, but
for what he got let us be duly thankful.
Tho Edinburgh Review.
THE CURREXT number ot the
Kdinbuigh Review celebiates
the centennary of its biitli.
It gives a shoit autobio
graphical sketch of Its institution and
its caieer, with portiaits of its foun
ileis and editois. It Is an unique fact
in the history of poilodlcal llteiature
that the Edinburgh has had only
four edltots dining tlie continy In
which it has appealed with the sol
emn regularity of the piecession of
tlie equinoxes. Ksaetly one bundled
yeais ago, in October, 1S0J, the first
number was issued in piecisely the
same typographical form In which it
appeals today, with the familiar blue
cover and buTC back. It is inteiestlng
to note that these colois were chosen
by the AVliig parly, of which tlie rele
nt n ted quaiterly was the Intellectual
and political exponent, because of their
sympathetic admliatlou for "Washing
ton and his aimy, who woie blue uni
forms with buff facings dining the
war of independence, when they wore
a tinifoim at till. The Edinburgh Re
view was not an oiiglual conception In
Us geneial scope. The liteiaiy and po
litical icview Is the lineal descendant
of the pnillsan pamphlet. The evolu
tion twin the spoiadlc pamphlet to the
peilodical icview was easj, Inevitable,
dignified and profitable to publisher
and publicist. Tho pamphlet In Us day
was a foimldable weapon of political
offence and defense. It had, too, an
Inciedlbly largo cii dilation, If it ap
pealed witli anything like literal y or
polemical effect to the ji.niy passions
of the hour. Tlie pamphleteer was the
buccaneer of journalism before tho
newspaper became a definite institu
tion with a mission and the icsponsi
blllty of its incalculable opportunities
for good or evil. "We tuo sympathetic
ally Inclined to legaid the pamphleteer
as a man of genius vho starved In a
gauet wlille ungiateful patrons and
bookselleis leaped the fiults of his
pet vet ted talents and Indusny. This is
very far from being a coriect estima
tion of his place in tlie history ot
peilodical llteiature. There weie
pamphleteers like Defoe, Swift, Ftank
lln and 1'alne, whose ephemeral pio
ductlons can still be lend with pleas
uie mill piofit; but of the lucubrations
of the u vet ago hack who moulded pub
lic opinion befoie the eia of tho dally
nowspaper, it can be tiuly said of him
that he was both vile and venial.
The advent of the dully ptess Killed
off the peitlnaclous piolMty of the
pamphleteer without iibsoihlng iilm.
The peilodical or icview became less
political and initio llleiary. They weie,
however, badly w'lltten, hazy, pioll.x
and sjsteinatleally uiiiiileiestlng. It
was not until Sidney Smith conceived
the idea at tlie IMIublttgh llevlew. until
Jeltieys gave It a shape and n policy,
until aiacaitluy cteated the ihetoilcal
taste and lltnughain u public uppiecl
atlon of Incisive ciltlcism of men and
books, that peilodical llteiatmc In Us
modem sense began to assume iho
shape unci Impoitnuio which It holds at
tho present hour and to which theio
seems to be no limit beyond tlie limi
tations of oilglnallty. Tlie Kdlnbuigh
Iteylew wtis not always light in Us
Judgments and it was sometimes sav
agely tittcttleiit In Us ctlllclsius, but It
maintained n wholesome abhorrence of
shams, whether they weie the pre
tentious otncles or eonteiiipoiniy men
of genius or the solemn platitudes of
nipdlocilty. The Edlnbtitgli Itevlow at
tacked Hymn, Sottthey, Wordswoilli
and Scott, nnd this hits been one ot the
standing reptonrhes of Us lack ot pei
spleuelty. alcatel n ciltlcism has piac
tlcally Jttstllled Its estimate of Sottthey
Of Woidsvvotth It innv be said that
while his genius Is unassailable, the
woist that had been said ot him by the
l'dlnlniigh was excusable In a conltin
poiaty critic dealing with a poet w'iioso
pL'isonal Idlosvnciacies too often be
ll nyril themselves in Hie pleblun self
consciousness of his vetsc. AVoulswoith
was not always lusplicd, and when lie
was commonplace he became vety dull
indeed. Its attacks on Hymn weie, per
haps, less deseied on jiuiely llteiary
giounds, but they had the effect ot
giving oecasloii to one ot the finest
sathlcal poems In the English language.
Scott was too sane n man to lie tilfcited
by hostile ciltlcism. He could thor
oughly nppieciale .lelfrey's golden nile,
so awfully perverted in those days, that
neither an author's leputatlon, a pub
lishers Intel est, nor any measuie of
personal fiiendshlp or peisonal enmity
weighed a feather In the honest esti
mate given to book or poem.
The Edlnbttigh had, .Teffiey told Scott,
two legs to stand upon, one llteiary and
the other political. The political policy
ot the Edlubitigh Review is today,
making allowance for tho tinnsmuta
tlon in time and circumstances, what It
was a hundred yeais ago. It no longer
numbeis a aiacaulay or a Uiotigh.im
among Us contilbutors, but air. Glad
stone contilbuted to Us pages while lie

no longer exercises the vast influence
which it once did, Us ciitical estimate-)
will still bear compailson with those
contilbuted by men whose names have
become household woids in the glib
association of English llter.ituic. A look
tluough the pages of the collected
wilting of the galaxy who made their
own names and the name of the Edln
buigli famous in England and A met lea
In the flist decade of the nineteenth
centuiv will show that while their
llietoiic was magnificent in its audacity,
its egotism and Iiillty, it was lacking
in that equable scientific judgment
which makes political and liteiaiy ciltl
cism woith anything as an Inheiitanco.
