There are many Indians in the United

Territory, whose incomes exceed 81, 900

Revenue holds that they are not. pro-
vided they are continuing their tribal
relations and living under the commun-
ity system on reservations and deriving
income from Indian farming and. graz
ing lands. This is one of the advan-
tages of being an Indian.

AN ENEMY TO STEALING.

Gov. Morton may be pretty easy and
convenient as a politician. He Is a very
thoroughgoing Republican. a firm be-
lever in organization. and as orthodox
IN his devotion to regularity as to his
church doctrines. Thus he 10 frequently
found promoting the success OF purely
political measures even when tho in
terests OF the people are made secondary
20 the interests Of party.
But Gov. Morton IL a scrupulously
honorable. upright man. and his high
personal integrity would deter him from
giving his assent or countenance to dis.
honest schemes. even to favor the most
influential Of his supporters. He would
not approve a fragrant job OF plunder
to secure a political advantage.
1t was this sterling trait OF character
that caused the veto OF the attempted
Jake Worth steal In Brooklyn. 1t Is
this that has occasioned the recall from
the Executive hands OF the Rochester
Storage Dam bill. In which Is hidden q
notorious scheme.

enough and INSCRIPTIONS enough for a

lose anything by their modesty. Thi.

THE QUEEN GETS HONE ALL RIGHT.

Queen Victoria arrived at Bucking
ham Palace yesterday" The cable In.
forms us Of this to-day, and We cannot
help remarking that 1t has filled us with
wild and untamable Joy to hear 1t. We
were wondering all along what had be-
come OF the old lady. and where she
had been keeping herself.
Her family does not seem to have
been mucn alarmed about her. but they
know her ways better than we do. and
they can come pretty near guessing
where sho Is when she Is not at Buck
insham Palace; out we are not well
acquainted with her habits. SO naturally
when she wanders OF downtown and
stays over her time we get worried
about her.
Some women have way OF dropping
In on a neighbor and forgetting that
Tempus Is fugiting all the while they
are gossiping. or the Gowanus Canal
delays them. or there is a breakdown
on the bridge. Perhaps the Queen had
some excuses OF this kind to explain
her delay In home-reaching. Anyhow.
we are right glad she's back at the
palace again. and we hope she will be
more careful the next time she goes
visiting or shopping.

LEGALITY.
We have many times explained briefly
the elements deemed essential to a mar
riase between competent parties. We
will now try at some what greater length
finally to make the matter clear. The
first great essential Is that the parties
must mutually agree to be ulenceforth
husband and wife. Second, in this State
and In other States, certain formalities
are prescribed. Here the law provides
for the registry and Authorization Of
marriages. which 1t declares SHALL be
solemnized only by ministers, priests,
mayors, recorders. aldermen, Judges and
Justices and the leader OF the Society
for Ethical Culture In this city, and there
must be at least one witness besides the
minister or magistrate at the ceremony.
Then. thirdly. the parties must become
husband and wife in fact, must assume
marriage rights. duties and obligations
In some recent cases here no marriage
was found because the parties had sim
ply llvei together as man and mistress.
although they had agreed in writing to be
husband and wife. But the absence OF
one or more of these elements or the
violation Of the statutory provisions does
not affect the validity Of marriage II
by the common or unwritten law no
such formalities were necessary. There
10 diversity Of opinion as to whether
celebration" IL necessary by the COM
mon law OF England. The view arrived
at in England. after much hesitation,
that It is necessary has been sustained
In Maryland, Massachusetts, and North
Carolina. But the contrary has been
held in Tennessee. and by the Supreme
Court Of the United States. and In
Alabama, California, Georgia. Illinois,
Iowa. Kentucky. Michigan. Minnesota,
Mississippi Missouri. New York. Ohio.
Rhode Island and Pennsylvania.
Therefore a marriage without celebra-
ton is called a common law or In
formal marriage Such marriages are
valid. that Is. where there Is contract
in substance ito be husband and wife
under the law" The necessity OF the
celebration depends upon the law OF
the place where the parties enter into
the contract. which Is essential to a
valid marriage. Thus, II the parties de-
sire to marry in Maryland, they must
not only have a celebration. but q re-
ligious one. II. on the other hand,
desire to avoid this, they
need only step into Pennsylvania. But
there can be no marriage. common law
or otherwise. without agreement to
marry per verba de praesenti. II the
widow and widower in this case SO
agree, they are husband and wife. II
they did not. they should lose no time
In getting united in New Jersey or
even under assumed names.
