SOME PRESS OPINIONS OF THE JUNE “FORTNIGHTLY.”
“The coming of the youngest king in Europe to visit King Edward VII.
naturally excites much interest in London. Mr. L. Higgin contributes to
the ‘Fortnightly Review’ for June an interesting sketch of the young
monarch.”—R eview of Reviews.
“ A great deal is done to define the personality of our royal guest, and
some delightful stories are told about him in the June number of the
‘Fortnightly Review.’”—D aily Mirror.
“The ‘ Fortnightly Review’ is fortunate this month in having a character
sketch of Alfonso XIII. by one who appears to have made a close study of
the young monarch.”—W estern Mercury.
“The place of honour in the ‘Fortnightly Review’ is very properly
given to an article of historical and biographical interest, suggested by
the coming of the young King of Spain, who is to enjoy the hospitality of
our Royal House. Of Alfonso’s personality we get a good account. . . .
Another personal up-to-date note is struck on the eve of the arrival of
the new American Ambassador. It is a welcome to Mr. Whitelaw Reid
and an appreciation of his literary work, at the same time suggesting
associations of the American Embassy.”—N ewcastle Weekly Journal.
“Mr. Victor Marsden writes forcibly and picturesquely on ‘The Present
State of Russia.’ . . . The most valuable contribution to this number for
lovers of literature will be Mr. Laurence Binyon’s poem, ‘ Paris and
CEnone,’ which in grace of diction and depth of feeling is far above the
average poetry which appears in contemporary journals.”—D aily News.
“There is an excellent article by Mr. M. J. Landa in the ‘Fortnightly
Review, the unwritten moral of which is that, instead of bringing in a
Bill to restrict alien immigration, the true interest of Great Britain, and
especially of the British working-man, lies in introducing another Bill for
the purpose of attracting more aliens of the Jewish race to this country.
M /\i L ru” da ’ Who wpites from elose practical acquaintance with the Jews
of Whitechapel, proves that the Polish Jewish immigrant is, physically
and morally, a better man than the English East-Ender.”
