A visitor at a club in rrhlcacro was nointed out a table at which usually lunched a hundred and This impressive A statement was as significantin its way the list of men, in the days of Emerson, Agassiz and Longfellow, who dined together as. the Saturday Club Boston. We cannot, however generalize from this that the only thir-g considered in the Northwest is money, and the only thing held in esteem in Boston is intellect.

The chief concerns in the North west are material and the making of money, sometimes termed the "devel ODment of resources" is of the firit lm portance. In Minneapolis and St. Paul social position is more determined by money than it is in most of the eastern cities, and this makes social life more democratic, so far as traditions and family are concerned. I deft ire not to overstate this, for money Is potent every where but I should say that a person not devoted to business or not succeeding in it, but interested rather in intellectual pursuits study, research, art (not decorative), educa tion and the like would find less svmDathv there than in eastern cities of the same size, and less considera tion. was told, more than once, that the spirit of plutocracy is so strong in these cities as to make very disagreeable atmosphere for the peo- 5 who value the higher things in more than money and what mou- only will procure, auu uiapu.y, a which is always more or less vulgar.

But it is necessary to get closer to the facts than this statement The materialistic spirit is very strong in the west of necessity it is, in the struggle for existence and position go ing on there, and in the unprecedented opportunities for making ortunes, And hence arises a prevailing notion that any education is of little value that does not bear directly upon material success. I should say that the juofessions. including divinity, and the work of the scholar and the man cf letters, do not have the weight there that they do in other places. The professional man, either in the college or the pulpit is expected to look alive and keep up with the procession. Tra dition is weak it Is no objection to a thing that it is new and in the general strain "sensations" are welcome.

The general motto Is, "Be alive oe practical." Naturally, also, wealth recently come by desires to assert it self a little in display, in ostentatious houses, luxurious living, dress, Jewel ry, even to the frank delight in the diamond shire stud. But we are writinsr of Americans, and the Americans are the quickest people in the world to adopt themselves to new situations. The western people travel much, at home and abroad, and they do not require a very long experience to know what is in bad taste. They areas quick as anybody I believe they gave us the phrase to "catch on' to quietueoss and a low tone. Indeed, I don't know but they would boast that if it is a question of subdued style, they can beat the world.

The revolution which has gone all over the coun try since the exposition of 1876 in housa-iurnlsmng and decoration is vuite as apparent at the West as in the East. The west hss not suffered more than the East from eccentricities of architecture in the past twenty years. Violations of good taste are pretty well distributed, but of new houses the pro portion of handsome, solid, good struc tures is as large in the West as in the Bast, and in the cities I think the West has the advantage in variety, It must be frankly said that the Easterner is surprised at the size, cost, and palatial character of many of their residences, he is not less surprised by the refinement and good ta te of their interiors. There are cases where money is too evident where the eplen dor naa oeen ordered, out mere are plenty of other cases where individual taste ia apparent, and love of harmony and beauty. What I am trying to'say is that the East undervalues the real refinement of living going along with the admitted cost and luxury in the West.

The art of dining is said to be a test of civilization on a certain plane. Well, dining in good houses (I believe that is the phrase) is much the same East and West as to appoint nients, service, cuisine, and talk, with a trifle more freedom and sense of newness in the West. No doubt there is a difference in tone, appreciable but not easy to define. It relates less to the things than the way the things are considered. Where a family has had 'things" for two or three generations they are less an object than an unregarded mttter of course where things and a manner of living are newly acquired, they have more importance in themselves.

An old community, if it is really civilized (I mean a state in which Intellectual concerns are paramount, values less and less, as an end, merely material refinement. The tendency all over the United States is for wealth to run into vulgarity. Charles Dudley Warner, in Harper's Magazine for April.
