2nd Hundred Thousand
The Leopard's Spots
A Romance of the White Man's Burden
By Thomas Dixon Jr.

THIS NOVEL is as remarkable in its way as "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was when it first appeared. Mr. Dixon's story gives the Southern point of view of the same question, and as a picture it is as graphic and as striking as Mrs. Stowe's book.
