REP UBLIcAN LIBERALrrY.

There is but one state officer to be elected
in New York this fall-a judge Of the Court
of Appeals, which is the same as our SUI
preme Court The Republicans of that
state have steadily professed desire that
the judiciary shall be non-partisan. Con-
sequently. when the Republican State Gen.
trail Committee met on the I'd inst, with
twenty-four members present, by vote of
q to they nominated for reelection the
present incumbent, Judge Robert Earl, q
steadfast Democrat who has never pro.
fessed any other faith.
They thus gave the best of evidence that
their professions have been sincere. And
thus far not single Republican newspaper
of the state has failed to give hearty en-.
dorsement to the action of the committee.
But the Democratic press of New York
notably the Word-cannot appreciate such
magnanimous devotion to principle. That
malevolent sheet, in its issue of the day
following the nomination, responds in this
wise: "Mf. Platt's state committee showed
considerable discretion in avoiding trial
Of strength in New York this year. The
devotion of its members to the kind of
civil service reform that continues q fit
Democrat in office is something quite new. {"
Of course the World knows, and every.
body else knows, that New York is at least
doubtful state at any time. and that the
late revelations Of Tammany enormities,
which have precipitated q formidable indie
pendent movement, gise the Republicans
more than . fighting show to carry the
state. But that paper and all the world
are equally aware that, under like circum.
stances, neither in that state nor any other.
would the Democrats be capable Of like
magnaniniity. Hence Democratic papers
like the World are incapable of thinking
otherwise than that it is trick.
This sentiment is apparently shared BY
the managers and rank and file of that
party. To such an extent was this true
that DOUBTS were expressed whether the
Democrats would not repudiate their own
worthy judge on account of his indorse.
ment by the Republicans. and put up an.
other candidate against him. The situation
finely displays the contrast between the
two parties in respect to liberality.

everything in the way Of general legisla-

In one matter, the legislature has made

reorganization. 1t il customary for legisla-

Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1890-11-13
A Queen Among Woman.

The queen of Greece is said to be the
finest looking queen in Europe. She
is the eldest daughter of Grand Duke
Constantine of Russia, brother of
Alexander H. She is tall and stately,
and looks like queen. She is blonde,
with brown hair, regular features, and
with beautiful neck and shoulders. She
dresses very simply except on state oc-
casions, and often goes about Athens
without even maid with her. The
queen is Il woman of culture, and speaks
Russian, Italian. German, French, Greek
and English perfectly well, and she is
now studying Albanian.
The king and the queen have been
blessed with seven children, and the
youngest is baby about year old.
Prince Andreas is seven, and the
Princess Maria. who is a very bright
blonde, is thirteen. Next comes the
Princess Alexandra, a very pretty girl
of nineteen, and then Prince George
who is twenty, and last and most inn
portant of all the crown prince, Kon-
stantinos, the heir apparent who was
born Aug. 2, 1868, and who was at
eighteen declared heir apparent to the
throne. All these children, save the
year-old baby, speak French, English,
Greek and Russian, and the home life
is said to be charming.
