MARRYING POOR MEN.

The escapade of Miss Oracle Morse, of
Tarrytown, is still subject of discussion. and
it is marveled at that she would do such a
thing as to marry poor man, when she had a
home of luxury. It is shame that one pos
sessed of money should so far forget herself as
to marry man with none. 1t may be that
the Morses have come from long line of fam
lily who have been in the enjoyment of a COM
potency and it may be that somewhere in the
not very remote past some of her "blooded"
ancestors have been plebeian poor But be
that as it may, this young lady should not
have presumed to have married a man without
money, for by doing so she has made herself no.
torious, and the gossips from one end Of the
land to the other have been set to talk
ir about her and the disgrace" she
has brought upon her family. It has not
been shown, so far as we have seen. that her
husband is not a thoroughly honorable man,
and competent, in time to make his young
wife decent living. His sole offense seems
to be that he is poor. If this is to be regarded
as an offense in this country, it is time that
the great majority got out of the way Of the
eminently respectable who have succeeded, in
some manner, in accommodating much of this
worlds goods. Up to this time it has not
been demonstrated that she has not married
an exemplary young man, nor is it yet appar-
ent that he will not, in the end, prove much
better husband than some aristocratic dude
with more dollars than sense. AS for the fact
that he is driver of carriage, it signifies
nothing. 1t was not so many years ago that
Mr.. Hoxie, the head of one of the greatest
railway lines in the world, was stable
man. He rose from that honorable
but humble position to the one he
now occupies with such credit to himself and
to the satisfaction of those whose interests he
takes care of. Let young Minton and his
bride alone, or give them the encouragement
that is due to every young married couple,
and it is not certain but that in time he will
be able to "buy and sell" the aristocratic
father of his young wife. There is getting to
be too much snobbery in this free country on
the part of the nouveau richie, and there
should be less attention paid to the marriages
of the daughters Of the wealthy to the men
of their choice. They have as much right to
marry the men they prefer as had their moth
ers to do the same. AS far as is known the
young man in this case is every bit as honor
able as the family who are impudent enough
to affect to despise him. So far as Mr.. Morse
is concerned, it is not plain but that he him
self would be poor but for the aid afforded
him by relatives.
