THE rumor that the eldest son of the Prince

The rumor that the eldest son of the Prince
of Wales is to we'd an American girl is, in
one sense, fattering to- our national vanity;
and yet why should he not? There are as
beautiful girls here as anywhere in the world
girls possessed of every virtue and accom-
plishment, and very many of them superior
to any he will find among the royal families
of Europe. Yet it is not likely that the
traditional way of mating royalty to royalty
will be broken in upon. The eldest son of
the Prince of Wales will in all probability fol-
low in the footsteps of his progenitors, and
will feel obliged to wed some lady more on
account of her parentage than any excellence
she may possess in herself. This has been
the rule, and it will be followed until, in the
slow process of time, royalty will learn that
royalty is nothing more than name after ALL
and a prospective king is fool for not doing
as he pleases. The divinity of royalty is get
ting to be thing that the people see through
clearly, and they will not always suffer it to
set itself wholly above the people. The pre-
negatives of kings and queens are not what
they once were, and never will be again. The
trend Of public sentiment is toward democ-
racy, and ultimately the people Of all the

A LETTER postmarked 81 o'clock P. NJ,
Sept. 16," Goshen, Elkhart county, was re-
ceived in this city by the party to whom it
was addressed through the o'clock delivery
on Saturday morning, the 18th instant, the
postmark on the envelope showing its receipt
at the postofice here on the 18th. A gentle
man whose family has been away for some
time, and who is prominently known in bust
ness circles as leading merchant, with a
well known and large place of business, found
that all letters addressed to his wife and other
members of the family had been carelessly left
on the porch of his residence, no attempt
even being made to shove them under the
door or to afford them the slightest protec-
ton. These are but trifes, so to speak, but
they are additional testimonials to the won

world will take public affairs into their own
hands. The success of the great Republic
west of the Atlantic has demonstrated that
such thing as popular government is not
only possible but desirable. The contagion
will continue to spread, and the rights of
kings and rulers will become more and more
circumscribed, till at last the people will be
masters of their own. The empire of Great
Britain is little more than republic to-day.

ment will be elected by the people, if two
houses be continued at all. Without the CO.
operation of Parliament, even now, the Queen
is practically powerless. The policy of the
empire is decided there, and the sinews Of
war are there provided for. It were well for
the future King of England to anticipate a
little, and form an alliance with some lady a
queen by merit and not by birthright. The
United States has innumerable women who
would grace the throne of England as splen-
didly and royalty as though to the manor
born. There are several of them who would

THE st. Louis Republican says:

'"The reduction in the number of saloons in
Missouri in the last few years is a phenome-
non both encouraging and interesting Four
years ago, in 1882, there were 3,601 saloons in
the State, paying in licenses an aggregate of
$547 900. The number was not large for a
population of 100000. Nevertheless, in
fourSyears it has been reduced nearly one
fourth, the number on July 4, 1886, being
only $500. Nearly every fourth saloon that
existed in the State four years ago has closed
up The $500 now in the State yield in IL
cense fees about ST., 500, 000-nearly three
times as much as the larger number yielded
in 1882 st. Louis has fully shared in this
saloon decrease, and there are now in this
city only /, 618 saloons of all kinds-less than
half the number $4,000 in Chicago, and /, 172
fewer than there are in San Francisco e, 100
Eighteen counties in the State have no sa-
looms, the county courts, at the demand of the
community, refusing to issue licenses"
The Republican, referring to this wonderful
record of practical results, declares: '"The
high-license law is one of the agencies in
bringing it about but it is not unfair to say
that general cultivation of sobriety among
the peoole has had greater share in the work
than even that law; and it may be added that
there is probably less drinking of alcoholic
beverages in Missouri in proportion to the
population than in any other State in the
Union, unless it be Georgia and Mississippi"
