MEDDLING MOTHERs-IN-LAW.
Husbands Are Jealous of Them, but 81
Are the Wives.

A west side matrOn who was an
orphan before her marriage is strongly
of the opinion that the comic papers
have as yet seen only one side of the
mother-in-law joke. 81 have never
had to contend with the application
myself" said she, 'but know of more
than one case where a husbands
mother has caused trouble between
him and his wife. It is my first con-
viction that not one mother in a score
thinks her sons wife is good enough
for him. With womanly intuition the
daughter-in-law soon discovers this,
a GOODNESS results between the two
women and before long there is thun
der in the air If the mother-im-law
has due regard for her sons happiness
she will take warning from the storm
signal and retreat. If not, the result
ing unhappiness is inevitable. The
jokes about the pie and the biscuits
that mother used to make always
suggest sad realities to me. And per-
haps the most pibiable phase of it is
that while both the women are most
earnestly DESTROYS of promoting the
happiness Of the son and husband yet
wrecking his peace of mind and their
own at the same time"
By the way, the influence which q
mother-in-law is supposed to exercise
in the families OF young people was
the subject Of discussion in court not

law to recover some property. The
jury were closely questioned as to
whether they entertained prejudice
either generally or specifically,
against mothers-in-law that would
prevent their rendering a just verdict.
At last twelve good men and true,
presumably bachelors, were found who
testified to having no feeling on the
mother-in-law question, and the case
proceeded.
Probably very few men would admit
to being Influenced by the stale and
silly gibes at mothers-in-law, but that
they have great weight is proven by
the attitude that almost every man
takes toward his wife's mother. He
has been warned by the comic papers
that she will attempt to manage him
and run his house; that she will incite
his wife to acts Of independence and
''put her up" to defying his opinion.
So he is on his guard. He looks upon
her with suspicion and is apt to think
that the most harmless suggestion is
unwarranted interfering.
To certain degree this feeling mag
be traced to a not unnatural jealousy.
The young husband is always very
self-important. He expects to be al
in all to his wife. He is determined
to be the arbiter of her destiny, the
oracle who knows it ALL the supreme
court that lays down the law. limo

WELLINGTON. THURSDAF, APRIL O.


now TO heep Audicks Out OF the Senate
For years the problem how to keep j.
Edward Addicks out OF the United
States Senate has bothered the Repub-
lican politicians of Delaware. They
did not want to keep him out of poll
tics; oh, no. They had use for him at
elections. Nor did they desire to follow
the sure plan Of electing Democratic
Legislature. They wanted to elect a
Republican Legislature and still keep
Addicks out Of the Senate. They did
this twice, but while they kept Addicks
out, Addicks made sure that no other
Republican got in.
Now comes the sapient author of
Republican Glasses'' in the Sunday
Star, with cock-sure plan how to
keep Addicks out of the United States
Senate. "There is way" he says,
"and 1t will sooner or later have the
approval and support of every sane Re-
publican in the State. Let the two
factions agree to disagree on the Sena-
torship. Let the Senatorship go. Keep
the seats empty. The State would to-
day be as we'll off without any Senator
The votes are not needed at Washing
ton. The United States Senate has a
large Republican majority, and it will
be. 20 years before that majority can be
turned down. Therefore, let the Sena-
torship go, but let the Republicans
of all factions pull together for the
municipal, county and State tickets. -
Very slick plan this, indeed. First,
1t would-that is, if it were adopted
tend to bring the Addicks Republicans
to the support of the Regular Republi.
can ticket at the city election next
June, and possibly give it chance Of
success. Without such support, il
would be beaten absolutely. No doubt
this is what the author of Republican
Glasses' is after. But will the Adj
dicks Republicans swallow the bait?
The most absurd feature, however, is
tho suggestion of Republican ma
jority in, the Legislature, with two
United States Senators to elect, de.
liberately agreeing to disagree, and
throw away their votes daily, by pre-
arrangement, during the entire legisla
tive session. For. by the act of Con
gress, they would have to vote once in
the respective bodies for these tive
senatorial vacancies, and then take al
least one ballot daily in joint assembly
during the continuance of the session
Could they deliberately maintain thu
deadlock in accordance with a pre-
arranged plan? Not bit of it. The,
might get into fractional quarrel ant
disagree determinedly to the end, bu
they would be more likely to divide tn,
two senatorships-Mr. Addicks taking
one and some Regular Republican tn,
other.
Possibly this is the end Republican
Glasses" has in view by his absurt
suggestion. No doubt the next cam
paign will show.
