chance to serve in an office that has only honest service in it. For the place in question can scarcely be said to be an office of profit. The pay and mileage of delegate may indeed meet his expenses. but that is all.
 Now what shall be done? Either on account of the adverse result of the presidential election or oI the unfor- tunate overturn of the first convention an unusual degree of apathy exists. No one is interested in the subject. No one is paying any attention to it. Again we ask, what shall be done in such a situation?
 The Age-Herald believes, thoroughly believes, in direct action by the people, as it's readers we'll know. It prefers the people to the politicians, because it is convinced the people can always be trusted to act uprightly, and the politi- clans cannot be; but in an election for non-remunerative places, when the best  men will not enter contest at all, is it not Dest-te turn for the once back to the worn-out machinery of politics, and call county convention in which to select seven delegates, to the conven- tion?
 This means no abandonment of pri- maries in regular elections. The case is special and the circumstances spe- cial The Age-Herald submits the question to the judgment and convic- tions of the people. Let the people be heard from. Let us know what you think. Write briefly and to the point. Write for publication. The case calls for quick action.

Primary or Convention.

: Although time has run along almost committee meets, January 28, and the committee meet s, January 2S, and the day for beat meetings or primaries, March g, is near at hand, yet no one publicly offers in this county for dele gate to the constitutional convention. This is a distressing state of things.
 The largest county in the State, full of large interests, should send strong delegation to the convention in order to protect itself as vel as to advance the general good. Strong men stand ready to drop their own activities and give fifty days to the State, but they arc not ready to descend into the pool of politics-to meet and deal with heel CTS and all the hangers-on of party and party met hods-that they may gain

Wheeler Caused a sneeze.

A Senator who is a Confederate veteran has told a new story on General Wheeler, and the Washington Post repeats it. One day, the story goes, the Confederate army was hurried off on a forced march to in- tercept Grant At the close of the day the soldiers were without rations, and Colonel Russell seized flour mill, which was run by little stream emptying into the Ten nessee river The mill ground away for an hour or two and then the water in the creek was exhausted At this juncture General Wheeler arrived on the scene.
 Whats the trouble?" said Wheeler.
 "No water" said Colonel Russell
 General Wheeler danced around in his nervous fashion. "Colonel," he said why don't you establish a line of men with buckets. as they do at fire, and have them pass water up from the stream be- low and throw it on the wheel?"
 Colonel Russell did not laugh. He drew himself up, saluted his superior in military fashion and sneezed If a photograph had caught the sneeze there would have been evidence that the colonel swore.

VICTORIA THE GOOD"

(Written on occasion of Her Majesty s Jubilee, in 1897, by Alfred Austin, Poet Lau- reate of England)
 The dew was on the summer lawn, When forth there came, as fresh as dawn A maiden with majestic mien. They girt a crown about her brow,
 They placed a scepter in her hand, And loud rang out nations VOW,
 God guard the lady of the landn And now the cuckoo calls once more, And once again June's roses blow, And round her throne her people pour, Recalling sixty years ago And all the goodly days between,
 Glory and sorrow, love and pain, The wifely mother widowed Queen
 The loftiest as the longest reign She shared her subjects bane and bliss. Welcomed the wise, the base withstood, And taught by her clear life it is
 The greatest greatness to be good. Yet while for peace she wrought and
 prayed,
 She bore the trident, wore the helm, And mistress of the main, she made An empire of her island realm. So, gathering now, from near, from far, From rule whereon neer sets the day, From Southern Cross and northern star, Her people lift their hearts, and pray, Longer and longer may she reign
 And, through a summer night serene Whence day doth never wholly wane, God spare and-biess our Empress Queen!

The official Jack" used In the royal navy is white bunting with the Union" in the same position as on the red flag, and with two red bars crossing at right angles in the middle. The army Jack is simply white bunting with the colored Union as the others It IS contrary to the law for either of the official flags to be used in any private manner whatsoever except in one historic instances:

Didn't Rise to the Diree.

There was not little good-humored gos- sip about town yesterday over the failure of the audience in the Jefferson Theatre to rise and stand while Sousa's band was playing dirge to Queen Victoria Tuesday night.
 If the audience didn't rise when the music was begun and remain standing un- til it was concluded, there was clearly an impropriety," said man who wasn't pres ent in the theatre. Remaining seated was improper, was in bad form; but 1t may be accepted as equally clear that such viola tion of good, form ~inadvertent, unin- tentional, and in no sense blameworthy, since the audience had never had such an experience before and didn't know there fore how to act in the circumstances. It was Sousa's duty to make sign to the audience to rise, and his failure. to do so throws the blame upon him. In the United States people are unaccustomed to some outward forms of respect familiar to ev- erybody in older countries. An Irish, Eng fish, French, German, or any foreign audi ence, would rise instinctively if the orches- tra or band should begin to play dirge, no matter for whom it was played-servant girl or queen, or anybody.
 Similarly when a band plays the na- tional anthem in any country abroad every body rises, if seated in a hall or house, and if it is out of doors every man takes off his hat. This is true especially of the British islands, where it is worse than bad manners for man not to remove his hat when the band plays God Save the ;s., he tod SaN VI King In this country we Americans have no national anthem, but we have several noble national airs for which we show no such respect as the lifting of hats, and which not one American in thousand can sing. We love our country with a sort of idolatry, but we generally have very poor ways of showing it. We don't even take off our hats to the President in public

QUEEN WcToRIA's DESCENDANTS

From the New York World.
 Queen Victoria has had eighty-three children, grandchildren and great grand children, of whom seventy-one are living and twelve are dead She has been not only great Queen, but great mother of kings queens and emperors. No other royal family of modern times has ever held within the circle of its membership so many crown sand septres. The descendants of Victoria already have assured to them the thrones of the two great empires of reat Britain and Germany, and 1t Is m lnan probable that within twenty N .Ae crowns of the three great 6i l6fit- ain, Germany and Russia ' 70 wDTn at the same time by her gr; nd-c chliursr.

WHAT SUPREME JUDGES GET.

From Law Notes.
 A list of the salaries of the judges of the higher courts in the various states of the Union, compiled by MT. c. D. Merrick of West Virginia, is interesting. Leaving on one side the judges of the Supreme Court of New York in New York County who receive $17,5OO annually, and the Brooklyn judges, who receive $14,OOO, the highest sal aries are paid to the judges of the Su- preme Court of the United States and the Court of Appeals of New York, who re- ceive $10,OOO, with $500 more for the chief justices. New Jersey gives her chancellor and judges a salary of $10O0O. Pennsy1- vania's supreme judges receive $S000, the chief justices $500; Michigan pays her su- preme judges $7OOO, Massachusetts $6500, with $500 more for the chief justice. Cali fornia's supreme judges get $60O0, Rhode Island S $55O0 Four states consider s5OOO enough to pay their highest judges-Colo- rado, Illinois, Kentucky. Minnesota - and Missouri, Neveda and Indiana allow them s45OO Four thousand dollars is the salary in Connecticut, Iowa, Montana. North Da- kota, Ohio, Texas and Washington. In Ala bama, Arkansas, Georgia, Delaware, Flor ida, Maine. Maryland Mississippi, New Hampshire, Oregon and Tennessee the sal aries range from s36OO to $SOOO. Along the $3O00 line fall the incomes of the judges in Idaho, Kansas, Nebraska, North Carolina, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah. Yer mont, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyom- ing. It thus appears that the salaries are highest in the great commercial states of the east and the upper Mississippi valley and are least in the southern and extreme western states-except California.

Albert Edward as King.

Albert Edward at the age of three score is man of greater capacity than any other king of the House of Hano- yer ever possessed. George II. was in this respect his only rival, and George Il. lacked the tact of the new king, and he also lacked his wide acquaintance with rulers. Albert Edward comes to tl,e throne at his best. He is strong physically, alert mentally, and well-ft- ted socially for his duties. Just how far the Good Queen, his mother, con suited him will perhaps never be known, but his knowledge of men and affairs must be all that a constitutional monarch needs in England. His posi- tion will, however, be very trying. He will lack that devotion and love which were centered in his mother. Chivalry will not help him. He will have to face the car.occists, and every act of this all-around sport will be brought out and mercilessly exposed. But he has tact, and he has great deal more sense than he usually has credit for. The chances are that he will make very creditable sovereign.
 It is 34S years since England had an Edward on the throne. There is not muLh in name, it is true, but let us for Iiosity's sake go over the list of the six Edwards. Edward VI. was a brother of Queen Bess, son of Henry VIII. He reigned six years, dying at the age of 16. He is chiefly known as the ruler who caused to be prepared the book of Common Prayer now in use in the English Church. Protector Gloucester murdered Edward V. and his brother in the Tower. Edward w., the Black Prince, reigned twenty-two years, during the Wars of the Roses. Edward H., creditable king, reigned forty nine years. Edward H., weak man, reigned nineteen years, when he was deposed, and afterwards murdered. The First Edward reigned thirtythree years, dying in his bed in 1907. He was the greatest of all the Edwards, becom- ing the father of the English constitu- tion, a great general, and an excellent civil ruler He was surnamed Long, shanks.
 This series of Edwards does not in clude Edward the Confessor, who reigned before the Conquest, and whose laws were long regarded as the basis of rights and liberties down to the Nor man invasion.
