(Stone & Barrlnger Co.. $1:I0. "Tom" Dixon's work la of Interest - t the whole country-full of novel readers, on account of It possessing: . afcertala virility of thought and style, and certain boldness or treatment, which although verging at times on th broad, at least never leaves the reader In doubt as to the message Intended to be conveyed. To the In habitants of the Old North State. It has an additional Interest of a deep, er and far more Intimate character. Hundreds of Tar Heels remember the author as a student at Wake Forest, showing even then literary gifts of rare and brilliant promise. Thousands knew him as pastor of a. Raleigh church. He is distinctly a North Carotins product, and on of which sh may well be proud. His former novel have arouaed wide-spread discussion. The trlology. on Reconstruction has been read as widely as any fiction published In the last two decades. "The One Worn an" was the sensation of the year In which it was published. This latest work bears the suae marks of in trinsic merit, together with some of the defects which . marked its fore runners, and should, in the natural course of things, share their wide popularity. Dixon Is essentially a preacher first, a novelist afterward. He him self explains his withdrawal from the ministry on the ground that he eaw a wider field of usefulness in a literary career. Fired by the ' mis conception he found prevalent as to the history of his beloved South, he leaped to her defence, and produced a picture of her period of stress and struggle, worthy to be hailed as the triumphant answer to the arguments of "Unci Tom's Cabin." Hll Inter est was next aroused In the problem of sex as relating to the institution of marriage, and ' he discussed It in a story, undeniably distasteful to a reat many . of his readers possibly a majority of them but one which throbs with actualltlea - "Comrades"' evidences that his ac tive mind has reached out in a new direction and come in contact with a set of forces, widely different from those he has hitherto touched, but not one whit less interesting or im portant. Socialism as an active prop aganda la little understood as yet In this country, but It is not destined to remain In this obscurity. In every Ptate. well-nigh fn every county, its evangelists sre at work. To Its de votees It appears to be the harbinger of a millennial dawn. To Its oppo nents It appears as sn impending plague which requires a prompt i rifampins; out, lest it wreck the whole fabric of civilization. As Sinclair's "Jungle took up the cudgels in Its defence, describing the conditions which are producing It and the hopes It entertain, the book before us at tack it, not denying the conditions, but endeavoring to show that Its conclusions are based on false reason ing from sound premises. "Comrades" is very much less of a story than its predecessors. The "Kn Klux novels and "The One Woman" were dramatic presenta tions which held one's Interest from -mvar to cover. This book Is abler a a piece of philosophy, and has a forensic rather than a .fictional In terest. One' reads between the lines that the author is here a special pleader. He has plausibly-presented arguments to rebut, and he considers their complete rebuttal a matter of prime importance. Page after page is devoted to a series of questions which are up to the socialist to an swer, or his fine-spun theories fall to the ground. -In brief pointed scenes, the terrible hardship and Injustices of modern condition are depicted scenes whlrh leave no cause for wonder at the fanaticism of the socialists. Careful ly doe the author arrange his stare for the fairest trial of the socialistic plans it is possible to Imagine. A community is organized on an island, entirely cut off from any possibility of contamination from the influences of ordinary condition The plot Is concerned in showing, with merciless logic, that the result could be none other than, the wildest anarchy, or else the sternest, cruelest. most re pressive autocracy the world has ever saen' - . There 1 aa ancient fable about the cloud on the horison. no larger than a man' .' hand when first observed, whlrh aulcklv covered the heavens and put in Jeopardy the face of the .rtt dnetalism does not create muck atlr Just T: It may not In this annexation or the next; but so surely as Its plausible fallacies are left un combatod. civilisation will one day have ta reckon with It. and verily that win he "a day of darkness and rloominea. a day of clouds and thtrk darkness. To despise the day of mall beginning is often a costly er ror, and the price to aoctety of such a despising In the case of the socialist propaganda may be one that will cans all succeeding generations to wonder and lament. Dixon has a large following among readers of all classes, whom his former book have led to look eager ly (or the appearance of anythlns from hi pen.

KINO COTTON. A Historical and Statistical Review, 170 to 108, By James X Ran kin,. Formerly Cotton Expert the Department of Agriculture'. James U Watkms Sons, New York. v....

Ther is scarcely a S; A N P. m single fact, connected with the white staple, which one could by any pos sibility deslr to know, which be will not find between these covers. Each of the -thirteen cotton producing- Bute la taken up , in turn and It output treated in . systematic and thorough fashion. A review of the State's production is given front the r very earliest period - of which records are available down to 1808. In the cam , of th older States, the record fro back to 1800, and with th exception t Oklahoma th latest starting point for any of them is 13J. This feature Ion. mmVfm me doox invaluable for reference. These table are followed in the case of each State by carefully pre- i'" aaia as to me nurnDer of cot ton mills and spindles and the do mestic consumption, together with natty other Interesting cognate facts, arranged in annallstlc form, so as to enable one to grasp at a glance th condition of the Industry at any Sven period. A brief expert from le section on North Carolina will make the author's method clear. : "!

Harper & Brothers. New York. (Stone &. Barrlnger: 81 60.) The author of "The Proud Prince" and "If I Were King" has, In 'The Duke's Motto," given us a tale of the time of Louis XIII. In which love and vengeance, fWhtlng and In trigue combine to make the pulse beat faster and the hair rise. Like most of McCarthy work It is couched in the purely dramatic form, whole pages consisting of practically nothing but dialogue, with just enough "business" to make the dia logue intelligible. This dramatic form lends an In tensity of Interest to the story unat tainable by any other device. Each character and earn scone stands out In the reader's mind exactly as stae actors stand out on the field of vision. Each act Is a catastrophe following directly upon a former episode, and in turn prepares the way for the de nouement of the one which Is to fol low. What this method loses by precluding description, It more than gains by allowing absolutely no halt In the action, save In the Interludes between the scenes. Another strlkln feature of Mc Carthy's work Is the unusually beau tiful diction he has at his command. No other historical novelist ap proaches McCarthy In the limpid, lucid, flowing writing of our mother tongue. This feature was responsible for no small part of the tremendous popularity of "If I Were King" both aa a novel and on the stage, and It la no leas pronounced tn 'The Duke's Motto." The great Dumas drew his Immor tal "Three Guardsmen" from this same reign of Louis XIII, and no romance writer since his day who has selected that period, has escaped his Influence. "Lagardere has, un avoidably, some points of similarity to D'Artagnan and his friends, but nevertheless he possesses an individu ality all his on. His outstanding virtue is fidelity; his principal habit that of always turning up when and where he Is moat needed. On the whole the' story is a rollick ing reysterlng romance, absolutely Tree from taint of unwholesomeness, and expressly calculated to gain aad hold the most Jaded Interest. "The Adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment," by Horace Edgar Flack, Ph. D. Johns Hopkins Press. Whenever one hears the fourteenth amendment mentioned, and 'tis men tioned often enough, goodness knows, one begins to feel like the mountain lad after he has drunk about a half gallon of "aasslfark" tea; he gets Irri tated all over. There's tirade a good deal like that of a fat woman who has heard her appearance comment ed on; and there's now and then to be explicit, a little oftener than "nevermore" occurs in the "Raven" a halr-ralslng peroration not quite as Ingenuous as that of the primitive self-advertiser. Jack Horner. Whether he be Northerner or Southerner, one wants facts and looks at and listens to stuff about the amendment only be cause he hopes to find fact facts which will enable htm to form un biased judgment. In this volume, of nearly three hun dred pages, by the way, Dr. Flack has striven as becomes the historian. "The purpose of this study," he says in the preface, "Is to pass historical judgment as to the purpose and ob jects of the amendment, the powers intended to be granted to the Federal government as well as those to be prohibited the States, and not to pass political Judgment." Unless you are fortunate neough to know the author, you can't say whether he lives be low or above Mason and Dixon's Una In the first chapter we find aa in- 'erestlng and exhaustive account or the freed men's bureau and civil rights bills the first steps taken by Congress toward reconstructing the South. The pinions of the lawmakers as to what ugbt to be don to th conquered province and th best way to do-it are given with conscientious pains. We infer that they found It difficult o hand th whites down there enough lemons without handing th blacks too few grapea Th story of the strug gle for and the final passage of these ills holds aad grip ana Immediately - he fondled aad cheeky nigger only Dr. Piack doesn't call them that or anything else unbecoming- -stepped forth to worship with the colonel or rather to watch the colonels wor TMpra-sSoe adaAham, ta thelrcarf aad steamboats, ge to their theatres and hotels, alt In the Jury' box. and otherwise show th olacx man' equaKf Ky with anynooy that lived, moved and had his being- la this terrestrial sphere: and lots of cases wherela the down-trodden, theugh somewhat spirited white still, war indicted for having- refused to - countenance such assertions of quality, are fol lowed through th -courts.

' r , . Th fight for the amendment Is also interesting.' -.v The . radical bad a somewhat delicate task. Th now era of the Federal government must be Increased a whole lot, but the language of th amendment mast be so Judicious that th people must not oe aware of any? consequent Changs, Th Southerners were "haughtily de manding, as a right, th privileges at partkrlnating ' in the- government which they had striven to overthrow: they, bad elected Alexander H- Stev ens to Congress; "there seemed no general disposition to place th col ored race, constituting at "least two- flttns of the population, on terms of civil equality;" union 'man were "de tested" and if they went South. .were "proscribed; "to have fought against the union wa considered a virtue; ' and so. th committee, after thus elab orating' upon .Southern, conditions. urged that "th so-called Confederate States are pot entitled to represent tion in the Congress of the United States; that, . "before allowing 'such representation, adequate security for future peace and safety should be re quired; 'hence, the necessity of the amendment. The author gives tne fist of each man's argument in favor of or. against each section, so that at the and of th chapter one should know what Congress sought to accom Pliah. First Section, "Ufa. liberty and property not to be denied to anyone without due process of law, trial to be by jury; the accused to he confronted by the accuser; property not to be taken without compensation; the right peacefully to assemble, bear arms, etc.; soldiers not to be quar tered on anyone without his consent, and cruel and unsual punishment not to be inflicted, nor excessive bail to be required. These in addition to the rights specifically mentioned in the civil rights bill, were to be secured to every cjilsen, and it was further more declared who were cltliens." Second Section. "From the exami nation of this section it is quite ob vious that Its chief purpose was to weaken the power of the South, and so of the Democratic party, and to keep the Republican party in power. For the first time in the history of the country there was en grafted upon the constitution a pure ly partisan proposition, a proposition to perpetrate a political party." Third Section. "It bore heavily on the South because It prevented those most capable from holding office There was probably one fac tor In connection with this section which was not mentioned In the de bates, and this was the fact that It would afford opportunity later on to offer Inducement to Southern leaders those proscribed In the way of amnesty as a return for aid given to the party in power." Fourth Section. This was the least objectionable of all the fire sections.. It declared that "neither the United states nor any State shall assume or pay any debt Incurred Dythe Con federate States In aid of war against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave." An amendment providing for bounties for the owners of slaves who enlisted in the United States army was re jected. "Congress violated Its plight ed faith, but aside from this the section probably served a good pur pose by removing all agitation In the future in regard to compensation for slaves or the payment of any debts contracted In aid of the Confederacy." Fifth Section. According to Mr. Howard who liked It, this section "en ables Congress, In case the States shall enact laws in conflict with the principles of the amendment, to cor rect that legislation by formal con gressional enactment. Here Is a direct affirmative delegation of pow er to Congress to carry out all the principles or all these guarantees, a power not found In the constitution." According to Mr. Hendricks, who sounded the danger of the section from the viewpoint of the minority, "When these words were used in the amendment abolishing slavery they were thought to be harmless, but during this session there has been claimed for them such scope and meaning as that Congress might In vade the Jurisdiction of the Btates, rob them of their reserved rights, and crown the Federal government with absolute and despotic power." "These unequivocal statements by the representatives of the two parties leave little room for doubt as to the purpose of the section or of the power to be conferred on Congress." The remaining ahapters are "The Amendment Before the People," wherein are given the opinions of the press and the ablest men. North and .South, as to its virtues and Its fall ings; "The Amendment Before the States," wherein we read the discus sions of It by the Legislatures and see taelr reasons for approval or' disap proval; and finally "Congressional In terpretation of the Amendment, wherein we have an exhaustive study by the makers themselves of the thing they made. Now if the merit of the work were just ordinary, I should wish for It a hearty reception by Observer read ers. Dr. Flack is a North Carolinian, and a young one at that, despite his title and his achievements. Bora of ood Baptist stock nesr Rutherford ton, he went to Wake Forest and achieved unique distinction; then, go ing to Johns Hopkins University, he became Fellow In Political Science In the class of 106-08, and Imme diately upon graduating was made head of the department of legislative reference, created by the Maryland Legislature. Th State ought to pet such bright young men a wee bit; time ha been when those who strove got . too little encouragement down there. If some folks had don else where what they did in the South both they and their work would have been gome "punkln';" nor would others have failed to try because they thought trying - little worth whfia e However, one can conscientiously advise his friend that Dr. Flack's work Is all right. Th constitutional lawyer and th historian will find it so the former, because It leaves no doubt as to the objects of the amend ment and the extent to which th courts have recognised them; the lat ter, because the facts, many long- for gotten, some never, told before, yet told now on good authority, are well and Impartially given.

A start has been made now on the roads in all direc tions, and on some of the roads Im provement has been completed for several miles.
