There are at least dozen claimants
for European thrones who have never
enjoyed the rights Of sovereignty. Don
Carlos asserts that as the last Of the
Bourbons, he Is heir to the thrones Of
Spain and France. The Due d'Orleans
considers himself King of France, and
there Is a Bonapartist claimant also.
The Duke Of Cumberland Is known as
King Of Hanover, and the Princess
as the last of the Stuarts. and the right
full heiress to the English throne. The
Duke of BraganZa Is pretender to the
throne Of Portugal. There are six
other wandering heirs to lost European
crowns. These claimants have never
been in possession of the strongholds
of power. The Empress Eugene is dv-
Ing In exile. after seeing the pomp and
glory Of empire pass away from her.
She is now In her seyenty-third year,
and resides at Marlborough. In one OF
the southern counties of England She
IS rich, and owns country house and
estate which cost her about quarter
y,
and entertains few people who are not
relatives. The most distinguished
among her guests during recent years
have been the German Emperor and
Queen Victorias daughter. Princess
Henry of Battenberg. The Empress
was once famous for her beauty and
the elegance of her manners. She Is
now aged and feeble, a victim to rheu-
matism, with a deeply lined face, a
bent figure and sunken eyes. Yet even
in her old age there are traces Of that
stately grace and dignity of carriage
which once enabled her to set the fash
ions for an empire and the world For
ty-fve years have passed since her
marriage with Napoleon III. in Paris
with splendid pomp. For seventeen
years she was the greatest lady on the
Continent. For twenty eight years she
has been an exile in England. making
occasional journeys to Spain. and pass
Ing through Paris a few times. Her
longest pilgrimage was 10 Zululand. in
South Africa. where her only son was
killed IN the English service. The En-
press misfortunes have been borne
with English fortitude and pluck. She
has lived in retirement, and made no
complaint because the fortunes Of en-
pire have gone heavily against her; bu.
simple and unaffected as IS her life, she
mas not lost the gesture of command
nor her Spanish elegance of manner.

One Of the arts IN conducting polit-
teal campaign IS for the candidate 70
say all the good things he IIoles-ly
can about himself and his side Of the
case without unduly cri1icising his op-
ponenr. In recent years there has been
a distinct gain IN American politics in
decency, though there IS still room for
Improvement. \ candidate who can
present the facts from his standpoint IN
q clear, forcible manner. who knows
hts case Is not 50 desperate as 10 call
for the aid OF inud-slinging, Is far more
apt TO command the attention OF the
public than the loudmouthed hawler,
who makes use Of ep!thets that would
be out OF place IN the family circle. The
gentleman in politics on the stump Is
not an ideal man. He is in many
places q reality, and the methods he
pursues are becoming more common.
1t IS fair and just to discuss all polit-
ical issues. which are those in which al
the people are concerned, fearlessly
and truthfully. If men are found 70 be
corrupt i Is proper 70 expose their
practices 10 the people, but the speaker
can do this without sinking to the level
Of those who are worse than he IS. An
honorable candidate would not proper
Is represent the people whose SURFACES
he Is asking for If he did not expose the
enemies Of the people. The American
people Ike 10 see clean, square. fear
less, standup fight In politics. The
man who loses such O fight cannot suf-
fer by defeat; the candidate who wins
by dishonorable methods Is robbed. in
the estimate the best people make OF
him, of all the real fruits Of victory.
