Must Stand or Fall Together,

The free traders have got up quite a
scheme in New England. They are
circulating petitions among iron-mak-
ers for free trade in ore, coal and coke
from Canada, and among the con-
sumers Of iron for reduction OF the
duty on iron and steel to twenty-four
per cent ad valorem. or $3.50 a ton at
present prices. the present duty being
Sc. a ton. II both of these changes
should go into effect the iron-makers
might save about q on the raw ma
terials used for each ton of iron, while
they would stand the chance of losing
s.. % ton by the reduction of the
duty. 1t is characteristic of the free
traders to set one industry to fighting
another. But a Republican Congress
will not tolerate any such nonsense
The protected industries must all
stand or fall together.-Cleveland

VIRGINIA potlrlcs,


4 Canvas Coadscted on the Principle or
Fighting Fire with Fire.
The Democratic party of Virginia.
and, in feet, Of the entire country,
fearful for their waning power in the
Old Dominion, and envious of the
proselyting march of the Republicans,
are endeavoring to retard the progress
Of the latter. not by legitimate dis
cussion of the questions of public pol
Icy. nor by comparison of the abili-
ties of the respective parties to settle
those questions, but by mud-slinging
operations of the most shameful order.
Assuming virtue which they neither
have nor ever had. they hypocritically
hold up their hands in holy horror at
the campaign of the Republican Gu
bernatorial nominee, and unmindful of
the indeliole record of their own po-
litfcal tactics, cry out: Beware OF
Mahone? With invective and vitu-
peration they rail against his candi-
dacy. prophesy ruin for the State
should he be elected, and point to
what they call his ''unquestionably cor
rupt methods of securing votes" as
reasons why he should be defeated.
No charge against his honesty in
handling the public funds is MAIN
tanned; no claim that should he be
elected the moneys of the State would
be endangered, is limited at. But the
accusation that he secures his votes by
''unquestionably corrupt methods" is
harped on continuously in hopes that
its very monotony will rouse the unin-
telligent to a belief that there is some
thing in the charge and induce them,
II not to vote for the Democratic NOM
inee, at least to refuse to vote for the
Republican.
General Malone is nc Sunday
school teacher. it is true. Had he
been since 1876. when the Democratic
majority of Virginia was 44.112. he
would not have been able to reduce
that majority to 1859. as the result of
last falls election showed it to be.
Politics run according to the golden
rule would not have benefited the
Republican party in Virginia, nor
made perceptible Roadway against a,
party entrenched behind years of I'M
interrupted control Of the State;
party which had maintained its posi-
ton by intimidation, violence and
fraud; a party which was not only
willing but determined to continue
such practices to remain in practi-
cally undisputed sway. To GUST from
power such a party there was needed
a man who would fight the enemy
with his own weapons
General Malone was that man. He
entered upon his work with deter
mination and vigor. And before his
onslaughts the Democracy of the
State have been driven from their
strongholds, one by one and step by
step; the negro has been given greater
protection each year in the casting
of his ballot, until now the State is on
the eve of an election which prom
ises to wrench it finally from the
power that has held it down SO long,
and place it in the Republican list
Great ills require great remedies. In
politics strategy must be met by
and to obtain great and
beneficial ends the most available
means must be employed. Such has
been and is the situation in Virginia
If the Republicans stand close the
fight is theirs. Therefore, it is no
wonder the Democrats howl. Let
them.-Chicago Journal

his father thinks it time to put an end to
these German alliances Hence the in
.terest in the marriage Of Louise, oldest
daughter of the Prince Of Wales.
Bear in mind that the reigning family
of England is only English" in the same
sense that SO many New York aldermen
are "Americans"-tha is, they have be-
come naturalized and taken the oath of
office. The first two Georges were en-
phatically German, and subsequent in
termarriages leave the prince with 80
little British blood in his veins that "No
heraldry Harvey could ever succeed in
finding the circulation"
The marriage of his daughter to the
Earl of Fife will do more to thoroughly
Anglicize the family than any previous
alliance The earl is nineteen years older
than the girl he is to marry, and was
boon companion Of her father, the prince,
in those days when the latter was SOW
ing his wild oats; but his blood is ceru-
lean and he has gold galore-an income
of $500, 900 a year. His family as noble
one dates back to 1404. In fact, as every
reader Of English history knows, the
names Of Fife and Macduff have been
noted in the north of the island from the
very beginning Of modern civilization.
The present earl was Viscount Macduff
in his early years, but it is already an
nounced that her gracious majesty will
make him duke if it is necessary to
settle questions of precedence.
1t is necessary to say great deal about
the earl because there is really very little
to say about the princess. The daughters
of the Prince Of Wales are not at all
beautiful in the accepted sense, but
they have very pleasing, innocent faces.
4 Some London writers have essayed to
compliment the bride expectant by
saying that when she rides with her
grandmother the queen in the park
the resemblance between them is very

statement of fact and reserve theil
opinion as to the compliment" The

Florence in 1910, the daughter of Nine.
Barilli, famous opera singer, and Sal

Gated for pianist; but having re-
markable voice abandoned the piano for
singing. Carlotta appeared in New York
in concert in 1861, and a year later ap-
peared in opera, but in consequence Of
her lameness she did not pursue this
field, but returned to concert singing.
In 1868 she sang in London, and in 1869
returned to America. After that she be-
came familiar to American concert audi
ences.
In 1879 she made her last American
concert tour, i'll company with Ernest de
Munck, violoncellist, to whom she was
married in September of that year. Dur
ing later years she has taught singing in
Paris. Carlotta PATHS voice was asoprano.
It's range and hexibility were marvellous.
indeed, many claim that she was supe-
rior to her sister in voice as well as in
dramatic action. Her voice, however,
had not the sympathetic warmth which
is needed to make an otherwise perfect
voice great in a popular way.

A. PRINCESS BETRoTHED. j.

one of the Daughters Of the Prince Of
Wales to Marry the Earl of Fife.
Ills royal shighness Albert Edward,
Prince of Wales and heir apparent to
the British crown, has pleased his people
and astonished many persons by decid-
ing that his daughters shall marry Eng
lishmen if any eligibles can be found.
There is some criticism because he has
betrothed Princess Louise(or consented
to her betrothaD to a man as old as her
father; but as the princess herself is eff
fusively glad of the choice and expresses
her feelings quite charmingly, and
everybody knows there is no compulsion
in the matter, there is no occasion for
regrets or sympathies on this side of the
water.
4 The prince, as every one knows, is the
second child of her gracious majesty
the queen, and was born Nov. 8, 1841,
and was married March 10, 1868, to
Princess Alexandra, Oldest daughter of
King Christian TX, of Denmark. Her
sister is the wife of the present czar of
Russia, which justifies the title given
her mother-of being the most success
