1t is a singular fact that while the pri-
mate of all England stands next to the
royal family in rank his wife remains
plain Mrs." and yields precedence to
the spouse of every newly knighted
grocer or brewer. The same thing is true
of the wife Of each and every bishop of
the established church. He is a lord
bishop, but his wife is only Mrs. So-and-
So.
In recent letter to the Harvard club
of San Francisco, President Eliot wrote
of the late Profs. Whitney and Child:
Whenever we lose men of such emf
nence it always seems as If it were i'm
possible to fill the vacant places, and, in
deed, just the same places are never fill
ed. The work which these two men did
is not to be done again. and their op-
portunities will not occur again."
A recent number of the Figaro of Paris

Two Worlds"

Lady Hayter who is known in London

While King George of Greece was

THE sCHEMERs sCHEMING

1t becomes more and more apparent
every day that there is a cunningly de-
vised plan to defeat the will of the peo-
pie at next Mondays election. The wa
nicipal ownership of the water system
to catch votes for Martin, but they are
careful not to mention how much the
water company expects to get for its
plant if Martin is elected. OF course
what the water company is really after
is the renewal of its franchise for quar-
ter of century, but in case public opin-
ion condemns the project too severely to
make it safe to work such a scheme, it
wants to have it's tools in Office so as to
have them officially ratify sale of its
plant to the city at not less than 81, $50, 900
seen, the scheme is to plunder the city
in any event.
AS The Herald has said repeat tedly, the
combine is relying upon small total
vote. If there is not a general turning
out of voters who are opposed to the
combine consummating its purpose Mar
tin will surely be elected, for the entire
voting strength of the water company
will be in line, rain or shine. Its strikers
are already in the field marshaling their
forces, and 1t penooves every one who
has enough interest in the city to want to
see it protected from the limitless greed
of the water company and the Southern
Pacific railway to take an active part in
the campaign all this week. Taxpayers
specially should work with might and
main to defeat Martin, for he is commit
ted to a policy which shall tax vacant
lots for the use of water when they do
not use water at all, and have no interest
whatever in the water plant question.
Labor union voters should be out early
ahd late to defeat Martin, for his cleo
ton would mean that the city would be
made to cooperate with the Times in its

where that the state department was
never handled better, II as well, as 1t
has been since the Inauguration Of the
present administration. 1t is conceded
that the Monroe doctrine was more or
less Of a meaningless sentiment until
President Cleveland gave it an inter-
probation which at first shocked the ma
tions of Europe, and which subsequently
Obliged Great Britain to withdraw all
claims to Venezuelan territory and sub
nit her case to arbitration. AS for Tur-
keys treatment of the Armenians, this
country could no more interfere than
it could In the domestic affairs of Eng
land, France or Germany; besides, the
basic principle of the Monroe doctrine
has always been that the United States
would not mix UP in broils between other
nations, or between other ma
tions and their subjects. AS for the
neutral position OF this country in the
war between Spain and Cuba, Senator
Chandler knows that the cause of the
Cubans was much stronger and better
circumstanced every way during the
ten years war-1S6S to 1S7S-and that
the Republican party, then in control OF
the government, not only refused to
give the revolutionists aid or comfort
but actually let Spain butcher citizens
of the United States who happened to
fall into the hands of the Spanish au-
thorities without making any vigorous
protests. All these things Senator
Chandler knows very well. but he Is an
Ishmae.ite, and lives to vilify all VINO
will not bow to his dictation.

TUESDAY. DECEMBER, !. 1896
cHANDLER's SHREK

In his. article in the next issue of the
National Review, a synopsis of which
was given to the public yesterday, Sen
ator Chandler of New Hampshire will
/. hold fast to his we'll known custom OF
grossly misrepresenting persons and
events Next to Democrats in general,
! the burden of Mr.. Chandler's hatred
centers upon Major Mckinley. When
1t became known that Mark Hanna had
bled the Industries to the tune of $25000O
to promote Major McKinleys candidacy
before the Republican convention, Sena-
tor Chandler poured vial after vial of
his wrath upon McKinley's head and
denounced him for being altogether the
most disreputable character in the his
tory of American politics. 1t is very
true that he did it to break McKinley's
hold upon delegates to the convention
that Speaker Reed might have less op-
position to his own candidacy, but for
all that. Senator Chandler proved then,
he will in his forthcoming ma gazine
article, that his bread and meat is hatred
and abuse of all who do not conform to
his way of thinking.
And, again. Mr. Chandler's leaning
has always been toward the free and
unlimited coinage of silver and it ex-
asperates him to find no substantial peg
In the St. Louis platform on which to
hang a remonetization argument, but
he will try, nevertheless, in his article
to make it appear that it has plenty of
such pegs. His gross and brutal at
tack upon the Democratic party will,
Of course, be accepted by all fair-mind-
ed men as an overflow of hatred from
fountain of moral and mental degrada-
ticn.
Az to the ruption between himself and
his, party. and his Interpretation of the
st. Louis platform in the direction of
remonetisation Of silver, they are home
matters for the Republican family to
settle at its own fireside, but when he
willfully attacks the Democratic party
with falsehood and vituperation and for
no other purpose than to call attention
from the iniquitous conduct of the af-
y fairs of the nation by his own party
II il well enough to expose this mans
mendAcity. -~
The synopsis Of his article, which the
senator himself gives out contains an
attack upon the foreign policy of the
4 pfesenti administration, and suggests
= that no better could come from any ad :
3 ministretion named Democratic" He
thsn attacks President Cleveland for not
protecting Armenian Christians from
Z Turkish brutality; demands that vene-
\ 1pAla be protected from British aggres-
Z elon. and insists that the administra-
ton should arrest the atrocities in Cuba
8 and aid in making the island free and
lhdependent. If Senator Chandler were
< - ignorant man there might be some
B oxcu0e for this exhibition of malicious
Z Pass, but he is very far from being ;g
z norant Of the facts, and hence his Ut
Z terances can, be attributed to nothing
Int the msnss innate depravity. Such

THE PINE AND THE PALM
(Adapted from the German of H. Heine.

A lonely Pine stands sleeping
On a snOw-clad mountain height.
The stream comes softly creeping,
And woos him with gIances bright.
But he takes no heed of her greeting.
Wrapped close in his mantle of snow
For ever he hears the beating
OF surf on the rocks below.
And he sees the bright sands cleaning
On the burning, rock-bound strand
OF his Palm tree bride he's dreaming.
Afar in the Morning Land.
Alone and in silence she's grieving
For her Pne-tree mate so far.
Where the ice cold waves are heaving
Cunder the white North Star.

It was understood last evening that

some of the people who numbered ball

to vote when they had no right to the

to explain their action. Just how

this little matter could not be ascer-

that a good many people who could tell
