In dec opinion s Competition won by a cana.0 Ian of the current Ling s idea. Besant writes to an american Jour Nal from Paris it appears than we have a Tauy got International copyright. Let us rejoice but with moderation. Those of us who have cot yet made a Fortune in our own country by our books need Nob expect to do 80 in the states. Those unfortunates who have not to pay for the production of their books in thin country need not exp act to be Ltd for them in that other country. Those Chow share of profits in Thia country has been two Enco on an average need not sex More than four Enoe in the future. What Mil happen is this All those persons who can write a Book which meets with a Large audience on both fides of the Atlantic will no Spur greatly. That a to say writers of Brach educational books As Are required in both countries writers of popular essays of great scientific books e. G., Dar Huxley Tyndal writers of great it Jaq flux Jwj -i.juuw4 histories e.g., St Aba Freeman Gardiner writers of popular verse of whom there Are writers of popular novels writers of religious books which take the people. These the authors who on both sides will be benefited by the new act. Those who Bay that novelists Are the Only people who will Tain talk and ignorant nonsense. There will be a Good Deal of friction before things Settle Down of course. As for the mischief to of to English printers i confess i do not understand it. They nod now print books for the american Market nor Iii they in the future. On the other hand americans do not print for us nor will they in Ibe future. There will be a Large number of books of to special a character that it will not be Worth while to Taka out copyright for them.
