THE WIDOW.
Arguing the Legality of Blythe's
Marriage Contract.

DR.. Taylor, representing the Williams
infants in the Blythe contest, opened his
argument yesterday in answer to e. ID.
Wheeler, counsel for the widow. He said
that w. W. Foote, counsel for Florence,
h ad again alluded to the existence Of will
although there is ne proof that any human
eye ever saw will. Mr. Foote had also eX-
pressed his belief that Blythe had left an
adoption paper, but of all the hypothesis
that ever were invented this tops and caps
the very summit of absurdity.
Referring to the alleged contract of mar
rage between Blythe and Alice Edith, the
doctor argued that every solemnization of
marriage must be i'll the face of the public.
and no decree should be entered against the
legitimate kin, except it comes from the
Serenest satisfaction of the court.
The contention was made that the rela-
tons between Blythe and Alice Edith were
meretricious from the beginning and con-
tinued to be So The widow claims mar
riage by contract followed by mutual as
sumption of marital rights and duties,
while the statute declares that where there
is no solemnlZatiOn of marriage there must
be consent, followed by mutual assump-
ton of marital rights, duties and obliga-
tions, and that such an assumption should
be within reasonable time.
Yet the doctor asserted, Blythe and Alice
Edith had separate haDitatiOns for two
years after tile alleged contract was made.
She never assumed his name, and even
when in the same habitation they did not
assume marital rights, duties and obliga-
tiOnS.
The argument will be continued to-day.

The Iturbide family appear to have been

their advantage to have devoted their time
to the history of England. There was
royal line in England which was elbowed
out Of the throne and the kingdom go years
ago, and whose descendants continued for
nearly a century to urge their claims to the
rights which they had held "by the grace
of God" From 1860 to 1745 the Stuarts
never ceased to conspire against the line of
Hanover. and whenever they could get
little money and few devoted adherents to
rise for their sake they provoked insurrec-
tons in which far better men than they
lost their lives. They always had a party:
wrong-headed people who had notion
that the kingdom would be better off if it

ERAsTUs WIMAN ON CANADA.

Mr.. Erastus Wiman made speech in
Canadian town in cOmmemoration of the
Queens birthday in which he considered
the practical effect upon Canada of the
Mckinley tariff bill He said that the en-
forcement of the agricultural section of the
bill against Canadian products for the two
years intervening before the general Parla-
mentary elections would reverse the entire
fiscal policy of the Dominion and lead to
the defeat of the existing Tory party. The
loss of the American market would be so
severely felt by Canadian farmers that some
kind of a policy would be urged which
would restore the lost market. Mr.. Wiman
does not seem to quite comprehend that
there are two parties to this question. He
assumes that Canada has only to declare its
willingness to open her markets 10 the
products OF the United States, to bring
about complete reciprocity The chief aim
Of the new Government, he says, would be
to create trade relations between the two
countries so intimate that, in return for a
free market for Canadian products, free
market would be given to the manufactures
of the United States, while, at the same
time, duty would be imposed by Canada
upon manufactures from Great Britain. The
effect of reciprocity would be to increase
the Importation of agricultural products
from Canada into the United States, ana to
increase the expectation of manufactured
goods from the United States to Canada,
In such case the farmers of the United
States would complain that they were sac
rifced for the benefit of manufacturers.
The S20,O00,00O of agricultural products
which were admitted from Canada last year
would, under reciprocity, be largely in
creased. Mr.Wiman assumes that the close
trade relation he advocates would lead ulti-
mately to political union, but other Cana
dams take different view of the case. They
say that the loss of the American market
will compel the Canadians to seek political
union unless the reciprocity they want can
be obtained in some other way. Probably
the way to induce the Canadians to think
favorably of political union is not to grant
them the material advantages they would
gain from such union while they prefer to
remain dependency upon the British

LABOR IN ALABAMA.

The Republican party of Alabama at its
State Convention pledged "to help emanci-
pate the tOiling masses from the imputa-
ton that honest toll is degrading" and
"to give honor and dignity to labor" Com
mentiBg upon this declaration of principles,
a Democratic editor says: THE Postmas-
ter who made that fustian resolution ought
to be bounced on the ground of general
and particular idiocy." The Democratic
editor takes the ground that honest toll is
not considered degrading by anybody in
Alabama except cranks and small Republi-
can politicians" Democratic editors may
say what they will, but there is personal
sense Of degradation in an employment
which does not afford honest toll a fair liv-
ing. 1t is. not that work is degrading, but
the inability to appear as man among men,
which results from low wages. A working
man who can earn from three to four dol
lars a day can live comfortably in any
American city and put money in bank. In
time he can buy his home and furnish 1t in
a way to give it hOme-like appearance.
The laborer who is thus paid and who
makes proper use Of his wages assumes a
dignity that one can never possess who
lives from hand to mouth, depending upon
the corner grocery for the means to live
when work is slack. The men who talk
about the dignity of labor and refuse the
laborers wages that enable them TO hold
up their heads among all classes of men are
the men who Should be bounced on the
ground OF general and particular idiocy."

SILVER PROBLEM ABeUr SOLVED.

The New York Tribune assumes that the
strength of the free-silver-coinage men in
the House was brought out in the vote on
the bill that was sent to the Senate. In
reaching this conclusion the Tribune does
not give due consideration to the obliga-
tions imposed by party caucus. If the
silver caucus was not absolutely declared
an authoritative expression of the party
will, it had the sanction of the most influ-
entail leaders, and it outlined a policy
which was believed to be agreeable to the
Administration. There were, as the Tribune
says, but fourteen Republicans who voted
to substitute free-coinage bill for the one
that was subsequently passed, but there are
more than twice that number who are
known to have declared preference for
free coinage. The Tribune thinks the
bull on-redemption clause in the Silver
b i'll that passed essential to the safety of
the measure. The Senate Finance Commit
tee has eliminated that feature of the
House bill. The so-called bullion-redemp-
ton clause provides substantially for the
sale of the silver the Government has
bought at its gold valuation. Directly it
makes the notes that may he issued in pay
ment for silver bullion redeemable at the
pleasure of holders in silver bullion at its
gold valuation. Under the bill as it passed
the House the Government may buy 1900,
0C0 of bullion one month and sell it tho
next 1t will be required AT all times to let
its bullion go at its market value when
holders of the notes issued in payment for
it present them for redemption. This
S Gems to be OF ening a good field for silver
speculation. Whether it would cause 4
steady Use in the metal is in much doubt
II clearly makes silver a commodity, and
there is no certainty that the Government
may not sell as much as it buys. Under
our present law silver bullion to the amount
Of S2,OC0,000 worth q month is withdrawn
from the market. The Government buys
that amount, coins it, and puts as much Of
it in circulation as trade may call for 1t
sells none as bullion, and consequently its
purchases have positive effect in support
ing the silver market. The new bill, as it
passed the House, does away with the pres
cut coinage law. 1t does not make any
silver purchase final. Consequently the GER
tain market which the present law creates
is abolished. A silver law which makes the
purchase of 81, SOC, 600 month final would,
we think, satisfy the demands of the silver
men. But bill which makes the Treasury
a kind of silver clearinghouse is far from
certain in its results. If holders of notes
issued in payment Of silver may present
them the next day or the next week or the
next month and get their bullion back at
market rates, the Government may cease to
be a purchaser of silver TO any amount.
The latest intelligence is that the Senate
will pass a substitute for the House bill.
eliminating the bulliOn-redemptiOn clause
in the House bill, and requiring the pur-
chase and coinage Of 81. 10000 worth of sill
yer each month. This is substantially the
policy THE CALL has urged during all the
phases Of the silver discussion.

CENSUS TAKING.

4 law authorizing the taking Of census
might with profit be accompanied by law
imposing some obligation on the part OF the
people 10 assist the professional enumera-
tors Otherwise the census will fall far
short of the purpose the authorities have
in view. On Saturday evening" when the
census man was supposed to be about
through with his work, number of fairly
prominent men in one OF our hotel lobbies
were talking about the probable pOpula-
ton that would be reported for the city.
-One man ventuTed the opinion that it would
fall short of the lowest estimate not less
than 80, 900. Being asked upon what ground
lie based his opinion, he replied that not
more than one-half the people he had
spoken to on the subject had been Wis
tied by the census enumeratOr. In one
case 4 man who had lived fifteen years in
one house on prominent street. and within
half a mile Of kearny, had had no call,
either at residence or business Office. This
remark led to inquiries, and of about
twenty men in the group but twelve had
been visited by the census enumeration.
There are, Of course, many insurmOunta-
BILE difficulties in the way Of an absolutely
correct census. In boarding-houses and
lodging-houses the head of the establishment
can often give little other information than
as-to the number of her boarders or lodg-
ers. She does not know their business ad-
dress OF much of anything about them
She feels called upon to gather Informal
ton about them only when there is remiss-
ness on their part in paying their bills. In
many cases-espeeially in lodging-houses-
she does not know the names of the roomers.
At the present time it is believed that
several thousand residents OF this city
have not been called upon by the census
enumerator. In some cities there is inter
est enough in the work to prompt persons
who know they have been missed to report
themselves. But in this city probably not
one in ten will take the trouble to visit the
Census Office. Comparatively few know
where It's. Ifgetting enrolled was matter
OF business, upon which money depended,
they would find it, but without some such
incentive they wait for the census enume-
rator to find them. 1t would be a misfor-
tune for San Francisco if her population
should fall $1,000 below the lowest estimate.
Yet this is what is likely to be the result
unless the people turn to and help The CEN
sus officials. Newspapers which habitually
represent San Francisco as destitute of en-
terprise would hail an apparent standstll
in the way of population as evidence Of the
tulfllment of their evil predictions.

The stepfather was in court yesterday

to put him i'll prison and the man left.

TAKING THE CHANCES.

dispatch from Victoria by way Of New
York says that Victoria sailing fleet will
enter Behring Sea to hunt for seals, and
take the chances of capture. The fleet is
encouraged to take such chances by the fact
that the British war-ship Amphion is ex-
pected TO cruise in the disputed sea- 1t is
extremely doubtful if the Amphion will
interfere with any proceedings on the part
of American cruisers which may be nee
essary to put stop to Illegal fishing. The
question is not whether Behring Sea is a
closed sea or not, but whether the United
States may, in accordance with the laws of

some exercise of authority is necessary to
prevent the determination of the seals has

AGAIN IN PRISON.


John Kenny, Once Accused of Murder,
Is in More Trouble
John Kenny, young man who was
quite recently acquitted by Judge Joachim
sen of a charge of murder for killing a Ger
man named Rick in saloon quarrel, is
again in prison. This time it is for disturb
ing the peace.
He quarreled with Joseph Horn, saloon
keeper at rs Fourth street, and might have
caused serious trouble only for the timely
arrival Of the police. About six months
ago Horn paid a fine of $500 for carrying
burglars tools. When Kenny was on trial
for murder Prosecuting Attorney Long ex-
posed a scandal by stating in court that
Phil Crmmins and Martin Kelly had
offered to get an acquittal for $1,000. The
ase was finally drOpped
