has right to print or to reprint the
public utterances of a public man, so

Costliest Cradle In the World.
(AinsIee's Magazine

There is exhibited in the drawing room
of Marlborough house the wonderful gold
en- cradle in which each first-born son of
the house of Marlborough is rocked dur
ing his infancy. In this cradle which is
perhaps the most beautiful and costly
thing of ITS kind in the world the pres
ent little Marquis of Blandford was
placed on his christening day. when he
had been given the name of John Albert
Edward William Churchill. The little
heir. by the way. is named for three well
known persons. John. for the great duke;
Albert Edward. for the Prince of Wales.
one of his godfathers, and William. for
his grandfather and godfather. William
K. Vanderbilt
The two children are very closely
guarded in the nursery. which consists of
the most charming suite of rooms in the
palace. Here the young duchess who is
n most proud and devoted mother. spends
much of her time with the babies When
they go out in their blue and white per-
ambuiators for exercise they are wheeled
about in what is known as the Kitchen
gardens. among the fruits and vegeta-
b.es. for on show days the kitchen gar
dens are not delivered over to tourists
for inspection. Thus the two little lords
may hold high carnival without fear OF
public intrusion and snapshooters. On
other days they are wheeled about
where their nurses will. within the $50
acres of private grounds. which are
walled off from Blenheim park.

ANONYMOUS ASSISTANTS.

Some anonymous letter writer. ac
cording TO Denver advices, is pursuing
Rev Maynard and his estimable wife
with a vengeance that savors Of the in
fernal They bounded him in this city
until his power to carry on the work
he is trying to do was crippled. The
most astonishing feature of the bust
tention to anonymous letters. Yet
while he was in Salt Lake City he
found people who were willing to use
them and to circulate the mischief they
contained. One of the local newspa-
pers retailed the gossip and made a
great sensation of the ISLANDERS.
The practice of anonymous letter
writing is at once cowardiy and GRIM
inal and cannot be denounced with too
much severity. An individual who can
coolly sit down and deliberately pre-
pare a letter, whether based on facts
or mixed with truth, with the object of
disturbing the peace of family, of dis
counting the good work undertaken by
a convert to Christianity, of exciting
suspicion and distrust and thus adding
10 the sum of the worlds woe, must be
dead to every honorable impulse and
quite capable. with a little courage, of
stabbing the victim of his malice in the
back on a dark night
The writer of anonymous letters is
certainly the meanest. the vilest and
most despicable of human beings.

OLD SCHOOL REPUBLICANS.

Senator Hoar, one of the founders of
the Republican party, but of the Lin
coin rather than the Hanna school,
does not hesitate to speak his mind
concerning the presidents policy of
subjugation in the Philippines.
When the senator was preparing his
resolutions denouncing the brutality
and dishonesty of the Administrations
course in relation to our late allies in
the war with Spain. some Pannaite
exclaimed in alarm; 1T cannot be that
Senator Hoar will thus embarrass our
party on the eve of campaign; he
must be joking
But" as prominent administra-
ton journal replied to this, Mr. Hoar
rarely. if ever jokes. He is terribly in
earnest in this matter
Politicians labored with him in vain
Friends of the president appealed to
him. but he said that it was the admin
istration and not himself that had en-
barraseed the party.
So his resolutions were offered-such
resolutions, the old school Republicans
declared, as Lincoln might have intro
duced and supported; similar, in fact,
to those he introduced and defended in
congress during the war with Mexico,
and in full accord with his notions of
independence and humanity
After setting forth the claims of the
Filipinos and the conditions under
which their support was obtained and
their services accepted in the war with
Spain, the resolution asks this govern
ment to pledge itself Ito abstain from
interfering with the freedom and just
rights of other nations or peoples, and
to remember that the liberty to do
right necessarily involves the liberty to
do wron-, and that the American peo-
pie has no right to take from any other
people the birthright of freedom be-
cause of fear that they will do
wrong with TT
1t seems that any party in any re-
public ought to agree TO that. Only
sentiment of Imperialism viii sooff
at it.

WALL STREETS EARTHQUAKE.

In describing the panic which recent
~ began to shake financial centers,
henry Clews, the Wall street banker,
says that g general crash was averted
only by the timely rescue of the specu-
lators by Secretary Gage, and that fur
Their disturbances may be prevented by
giving the secretary unlimited author
ity to relieve the brokers and bankers
as President Mckinley has recommend

all the more apparent because Of the

change rates are going up and the drain

any decided Improvement may be de-

been determined and the money market

by way of a warning: There are evil

COPYRIGHTED SPEECHES.

There is curious controversy going
on in England just now over the right
and title to the public speeches of an
eminent statesman w--S is stin promi-
nent in government affairs. 1t is not a
question of authorship, but of owner
ship, and the strangest part of it is
that the sDeeeh-maler is taking no
part in the controversy.
The Earl of Rosebery delivered the
speeches in parliament and on state oc-
casions. They were printed by divers
newspapers at different times. but all
of them, ii seems, had been repro
duced in the London Times, which car
ries copyright on the matter contain
ed in its daily editions. Mr.. John Lane,
a London publisher, compiled and
printed q book of Lord Roseberv's
speeches some time ago, but the
Times obtained an Injunction which
prevented Lane from placing the vol
ume on the market. Tire case has been
carried through the courts, and an ap-
peal is now threatened which may take
it into the house of lords.
The question at issue is this: Who
owns tae speeches?
Lord Rosebery delivered them. but he
never claimed any further property
interest in his ideas in the particular
forms expressed therein. He might have
copyrighted his utterances. but did not.
He might have talked so fast that the
LONDON Times reporter couldn't have
followed him through. He might have
prepared his remarks in advance and
presented the reporter with a type
written copy lie might have deliver
