Some sympathy for Oscar Wilde will undoubtedly be aroused by the refusal of certain French writers like M. Zola to sign an authors' petition for the former's release. No one would presume to extenuate Wilde's offenses, but it must be admitted that, bad as he was, he has not been the cause of as much immorality as some of the Parisian writers who have taken to throwing stones at him since his fall. Nor is Paris quite the place from which the world is yet willing to take its notions of virtue and morality.
