Howard Gould and His Relations to

Record.
Mr.. George Gould caused it to become
known through the avenues that he usually
selects for personal and family announce
ments that his younger brother Howard
does not intend to marry Katherine Ciem-
mons, the pretty actress TO whom he gave
such a gorgeous dinner the other day, and
who has been his companion on several
Journeys by land and sea. The newspapers
would have it that the Christmas feast
there was TO be a formal announcement OF
their bethrothal, and plates were laid at
the table for Mr.. and Mrs. George Gould
to signify their approval of the marriage
But Mr. and Mrs. Gould did not appear,
and the announcement was postponed. MIS-.
Gould was herself an actress, but her repu-
tation was spotless and she never occupied
a suite of luxurious apartments at one or
the most expensive hotels In the world TOR
months at a time at the expense or her
lover. She was recognized ana received IN
society before her marriage as cordially as
after, and no breath of scandal ever
touched her. while Miss Clemmons has been
the heroine OF a great many newspaper sIs a
fore the objection of Mr.. and Mrs. Gould
to their brothers. choice is natural, ana
Miss Helen Gould who feels great solicit
tude for the moral and social welfare of
her brothers, has been decidedly opposed
to the association from the beginning.
1t was a wise provision of Jay Could
will that made his sons and daughters ceE-
sors of each others matrimonial relations.

CARL SEIZURE ON IMPERIALISM.

Whatever one may think of Carl
Schurz and his rather erratic course in
politics, no one viii say that he is not
an able man. a clear thinker, and an
incisive writer Whether or no he is
a great man, he certainly is one of
the most prominent men in the coun-
try, and whatever he may say on the
questions of the day that the war has
brought forward, is worthy Of attention
and consideration.
Mr.. Schurz has given expression,
through the Independent, to his views
on the question of the annexation of
the Spanish colonies that have come
into our possession. He says:
Is there a conscientious and sober
minded man among the imperlalistS
who will deny that in deciding this
question of expansion the welfare OF
our own people should be our first con-
sideration? Is there any one who VIII
deny that it would be an exceedingly
risky experiment to annex Cuba and
Porto Rico and the Philippines, and to
ir corporate them in our political sys-
tenn as states on an equal footing with
the other states, not only TO govern
themselves, but to take part in govern
ing the whole republic, with such pop
uIations as they have, and considering
that, owing to the influences OF the
tropical climate, those, populations will
never be like ours? And is there one
who vii deny that it Will be an equally
risky experiment to annex those coun-
tries and to govern them in the DO
consular Way-a system of government
which. aside from overthrowing all the
fundamental principles of our institu-
lions. would be into our politics flood
of corruption?
1 know it is pretended by some of
the imperialists that of late our states
manship has been at q low ebb, because
it had to deal only with parochial cues
tions: that our country was too small
for great statesmen; that We needed
expansion to make our views larger;
that if we only obeyed our new con-
sciousnesS'' and recognized our 'des-
tiny" such small topics as silver and
the tariff would be crowded out by vast
international interests, and that greater
responsibilities would not only make us
broader in our conceptions, and wiser,
but also more virtuous. We heard SIM
liar predictions when Greater New
York was in issue. We were told shat
the larger responsibility for so great a
city as that would be, would arouse
the citizens from their apathy to a ,irm
determination that only the best and
Wisest men should be in the high places
thereof TIE first result was the res
toration to old Tammany Hall to power.
Does anyone believe that If we annex
the Spanish colonies, Bosses Croker and
Platt viii lose their power, and New
York City will send Joseph Choate and
Seth Low to congress instead of Sulzer
and Quigg? We have heard much of

THAT BANNER TARIFF YEAR.

A state exchange calls attention to
the prosperous condition of the labor
ing man in 1892, which was knocked
to pieces" by Cleveland in March,
1893.
1t. overlooks the bread and butter
wars of 1892, the strikes and riots that
put a blight upon the land in that ban
ner year of Republican rule. 1t seems
10 forget the struggle between labor
and capital which began under Harri-
son, and spent its fury under Cleve-
land. e.
1t was in 1892 that the doors of Home
stead were draped in mourning, that
the tailors, masons, brakemen, switch
men, miners, moulders and factory
hands of the protected east were clam
oring for living wages, were on strike
which paralyzed commerce and left it's
bad effects upon the country for more
than two years.
But there was such little change
in the tariff during Cleveland's admin
istration, such a slight decrease in that
tax, which the foreigner pays, anyhow,
as protectionists claim, that the differ
ence was scarcely felt. And it is idle
for a contemporary to claim that such
change in policy produced disaster,
especially when that disaster began in
1892, under President Harrison.
This idea of protection" bringing
prosperity, except to the favored few,
is an exploded one, anyhow. 1t doesn't
help the country at large; it doesn't
benefit the people in general. Every
Republican in Utah should realize this
truth. 1t is certain they would if they
had an opportunity to investigate for
themselves.
One of the most radical tariff men in
the state. the most pronounced protec-
zionist of all, discovered that the sys-
tenn was form of robbery" when he
got where he could observe the work
ings of it.
1t viii strike them all in the same
way when they take the pains to en-
anime it closely. And it is the duty Of
men who undertake to advise the peo-
pie to ascertain the truth. Tariff levied
for protection purposes without regard
to the needs of the government is rank
robbery of the consumer. There is no
sense in talking about the BLESSINGS"
of such a system.

WHEELER AT SANTIAGO.

New York Tribune: General Wheeler

to the front he met some litters bearing
wounded. The veteran. against the pro-
test OF the surgeons. Immediately ordered
his horse, and after personally assisting
the wounded into the ambulance, mounted
The men burst into frantic cheers
which followed the general all along the

Into the thick of the fight he went pallid

ghostly wiso of a man,
But the fighting soul of a fighting man

And he climbed to the saddle, and rode
right on, that little old ex-confed.
From end to end of the long blue ranks
rose up the ringing cheers
And many powder face was
furrowed with sudden tears.
AS with fiashing eyes and cleaning sword,
and hai- and beard of snow.
Into the hell of shot and shell rode little

THE INCURABLE INSANE.

A short time since members of the
grand jury of the Baltimore city court
visited the Spring Grove asylum, and,
after seeing a number of incurable
cases, some of the grand jurors dis
cussed the expediency and humanity
of putting to death, in painless man
ner, insane patients who, it is known,
will not recover.
1t is safe to say that not one person
in a hundred who visits an asylum
and sees the hopelessly insane patients
but says to himself that it would be
far better if they were dead than thus.
And they would be. While this is so.
still is not one person in a hundred who
visits an insane asylum and sees the
hopelessly insane patients but would
reject with horror the suggestion that
these patients be put TO death in a
painless manner. And it is we'll that
the people do revolt in horror from amp
such suggestion. 1t is akin to the sug-
gestion that deformed children and
such should be given a painless death.
From the physical standpoint, the race
would be improved by putting such sug-
geStions in practice, but 1t is by no
means certain that the moral loss
would not more than counterbalance
the physical gain.
All these suggestions may be scien-
tific, but they certainly are heathenish.
absolutely at war with the teachings
and traditions of our Christian civiliza-
ton. All these suggestions, stripped of
all verbiage and pretense, are nothing
more than cold. heartless utilitarian-
ism, that considers only the cost and
trouble that the care of the unfortu-
mates involves. The best and the SAT-
est cure is to teach people how to live
properly. from the scientific and ply
Biological standpoint, that there may be
fewer unfortunates born into the world.
The suggestion that they be destroyed
is inhuman and brutal.

what l deem the first duty the Amer
lean people owe to themselves-not the
care for the people of Cuba, Porto Rico
them we should do for them the best
we can. but in any event keep them out
of our own household.
The annexation of all of SPANS col
onies would not add enc particle TO
the strength or greatness of the United
States: they would simply add to the
perplexities and problems of the .Jrited
States.
The United States are solemnly rledg-
ed not to annex; Porto Rico win prob
ably be annexed, while the disposition
of the Philippines is a mooted question.
The responsibility of this country for
their future. at the utmost, can be no
more than to afford the people there
an opportunity to institute such form
of government as they may choose. If
they are not fitted for government,
they certainly are not fitted TO be in
corporated into the Union and have q
voice in the control Of affairs in this
country. The islands are not wanted
for the accommodation of any surD.us
population; the chief argument in favor
of their annexation is that they are
splendid territory for exploitation.
Everyone knows what that means. 1t
would mean, in the case of the Philip
pines, the handing over of the islands
TO syndicates and mono1olies. Surely
they have their grasp on enough things
in this country, without anneXing new
lands for their benefit
As Mr.. Schurz says. after liberating
them, we should do he best for them
we can, but, in any event, keep them
out of our household"
