The cen- sus shows about 10,000 persons in this coun- try who call themselves authors, and adding up the syndicate and magazine lists of writers and the best known newspaper men and women, you may account for 500 of them. Perhaps there are as many who i earn $1500 a year by their writing alone, perhaps 100 of these earn more.

These 10,000 writers, or rather 500 of them, `actu- * ally have more inuence on the sentiments, ` principles, and business-of the world than all the rest put together. If these writers knew and grasped their power they would be the worst autocracy the world has ever seen. It is as well they do not know it till they can use it better. It is of consequence that they, and those proposing to join them, should at least have some notion what is due the. methods of work.
