^The North' American Review for 1900«- 



Of the diversity, interest, and authoritativeness which will characterize the articles in this maga- 

 zine during- igco, the above is a sufficient indication. More specific announcement is hardly 

 possible, because of the editor's determination to maintain, first of aU, the quality of t'meliness. 

 Me is no better informed than the reader, upon the publication of one number, regarding the 

 contents of iis successor. Events designate the topics. The sole duty of the editor is to obtain 

 for the reader the most competent and authoritative expressions of fact and opinion. This he 

 has endeavored to do during the past eight months, and he will continue his efforts on the same 

 lines, but with greatly increased facilities, due to the recent establishment of editorial offices in 

 London and Paris, during the year 1900.
