Mean Business.
It is a very ungracious role some
writers and some private individuals
undertake to play in this life—that of
tearing to pieces and picking Hawaii)
the people and the objects that the world
in general most admires. Perhaps they
call their role that of critic. It (lcgon.
crates frequently info that of the mere
ill natured meddler.
For years all lovers of English lilcra~
ture have been admiring George Eliot.
She has put before as wonderful thought,
clothed in exquisite language. The per-
sonality of tho woman was not in her
work at all, and in consequence that
work was of the highest order.
But now comes Mrs. 1'}. Lynn Linton,
whose mission it apparently is tofind-
only fault with everything and every-
body in this universe. and tells us that
the great George Eliot was “unwashed,
unkempt. and unbrushcd;" that she
dressed badly and held her arms and
hands kangaroo fashion. This is prob-
ably not true. Probably Mrs. E. Lynn
Linton's flaw picking spirit has become
so exaggerated that molchills are mean
tains to her inflamed imagination. That
is the invariable effect that years of
flaw picking have on the flaw picker.
But even if it were in a measure true,
why take up the corpse of George Eliot
from its tomb? George Eliot left a glo-
rious record of genius and Imacieniious
work behind her, that is enough. People
who are always looking for faults be—
come in time themselves exaggerated
specimens of the very faults they find
in others. This is the mental law. and
there is no escape from it. Look for the
good. and you will always find it.
Booker T. Washington, the colored
man who was the oratorical hero of the
day at the opening of tho Atlanta expo-
sition, crowded as much common sense
into his speech as any white man on
this continent could havodonc. “You
must not expect ovcrmuoh from as,” he
said to the while folk. “starting as we
did 30 years ago with (Minorship in a
few quilts and pumpkins and chickens
gathered from llllh‘i'f‘lllkllOOI‘lH sources. "
He knew how to pay graceful compli-
ment as well as an accomplished cour-
livr. too. thanking both north and south
for tho help they had given the black
people in preparing for the exposition.
It is interesting to know that hon-gards
the agitation for social equality of tho
rut-vs as tho “oxtmnost folly, " in which
he is exactly right. The American
negro now wants most. of all to “saw
ward and say nothing." He noodato
lay up money, to get an education. to
get good manners and good morals and
to train himself to the habits of living
common among refined people. white or
black. Those are words of gold from
the address, "The oplmrtunity to earn a
dollar in a factory just now is worth in-
finitely more than the opportunity to
spend a dollar in an opera house. "
