NOT MUCH OF A LOVE MATCH

1t has been widely heralded that the en-
gagement of Hollands young queen and the
prince of Wied is one in which love cuts
more Of figure than anything else There
is very good reason to believe that, while
there may be more affection between the
two than is usually the case in royal mar
rages, reasons OF state have much to do
with the prospective union as anything else
One OF these reasons has just been pointed
out by European authority. The royal
family and the people OF Holland generally
want to avoid the possibility that by the
marriage OF the young sovereign to a prince
Of ruling family it might happen after
some time that through inheritance a ruler
OF a foreign country might become also king
OF Holland. This might easily happen if
the young queen should marry a prince of
any ruling European house The Dutch
royal family and the people of Holland do
not wish to repeat the experiences which the
country has had in the past. Such mar
rages were the reasons for the Dutch war
of independence in the sixteenth century,
and indirectly for the dividing of Belgium
and Holland into two Kingdoms in 1892
just such consOrt as was desired by the
Dutch people is found in the prince of WED
whose family is absolutely without political
influence in Germany. During the domi-
nance of Napoleon in large part of Euro
pean affairs the Wieds We're deprived of
their throne After the evacuation Of Ger
many by the French it was considered best
by the rulers Of all the large German states
not to restore the thrones to the smaller
princes, included among whom were the
princes Of Wied. The former territory of
the Wieds was therefore given to Prussia
in 1915, since when the princes of Wied
have been Prussan subjects, with less in
huence in Germany than many of the oldest
noble families. Nevertheless, the Wied
family is considered to be of equal birth to
the other royal German families. Their title
remains, but that is all, as they have very
small family possessions. As Bulwer says:
''The mate for beauty should be man, not
a money chest and when the beauty is
also a queen this rule should hold doubly
good. The prince, being an exceedingly
presentable young fellow and without any
chance of bringing up complications such as
the cautious Holanders feared, was just the
man to mate with her majesty Queen Will
melmina. Hence his selection. His royal
highness is poor, but his wife will have
enough for both, and she is believed to
know enough to so manage affairs that her
royal consort will be held in check should
he ever manifest such gay tendencies as
