The article presents news on various political activities. The violence of the British action in Egypt is more than an imperial demonstration; it is the rattling of the sword of the West in the face of the restless East. Congress has opened for a session of small things. Inhibited by the reigning interpretation of the election as a mandate to do as little as possible, it will doubtless confine itself to appropriation bills and plans for further reduction of taxation and for relief to the farmers. George Moore is the latest of a whole line of foreign critics who have annoyed Americans by their persistent determination to regard Edgar Allan Poe as the one and only poet--perhaps the only artistic genius--which the country has produced.
