With the ordinary handcuff there is
not little opportunity for a strong

Don, who was to have borne the stand
ard of Ireland at the coronation Of
King Edward day before yesterday,
is the head of one of the most ancient
houses of the Emerald Isle and lord
lieutenant of the county Of Roscom-

"Don" appended to his patronymic is
not surname but title, concerning
the origin of which there is some dis
pute, but which is evidently derived
from some Spanish ancestor, the family
name being O'Conor The pronoun
'the" prefxed to the name of O'Conor
signifies that the bearer thereof is the
principal representative of one of the
houses that in olden times exercised
sovereign sway over tie Emerald Isle.
There are many people in Ireland who
claim the right to this prefix, and who
coolly adopt it without shadow OF
right thereto. But among those whose
title is unquestioned are the MacDer-
mot, the ALacGillicuddy, the O'Dono-

A GOOD MAN FOR GOVERNOR

publicly announced a few days previ-
Ously that under no consideration
would lie be candidate for state en-
ecutive, and that If given the nomina-
tion by the party it was his "irrevoc-
able determination" not to accept it,
the Democracy could not have done
better than to give it to his trusty
lieutenant, l.. A. Rosing, who had act
ed as his private secretary during his
term OF office and had demonstrated
his political sagacity as chairman of
the Democratic state cenral committee
for several years. THE mantle of John
Lind has appropriately fallen on the
shoulders of l.. \. Rosing and makes
him the logical candidate for governor
of this great commonwealth.

return to him and apologize for the
contempt which it has expressed for
him. Will it? Not until the principles

The less David b. Hill lauds him the

is plutocrat who has no sympathy

AWKWARD QUESTIONS.
For Asking Them Miss Taylor i

OASSudl kCus
The Washington correspondent Of the
New York Freeman's Journal has the
following to say about the case of
Miss Rebecca Taylor, who was recently
discharged from position in the war
department.:
Miss Taylor is not illiterate. She
will never lack bread. She is certainly
more vigorous and comedy in her mode
of public address than the president
himself. No apology, therefore, is nee
essary to introduce Miss Taylor.
The speech criticised by Miss Taylor
was delivered at banquet Of the Sons
of the American Revolution, held in
this city. Miss Taylor singled out
President Roosevelt's statement that
he "drank to the health Of the SOL
diers and sailors Of the present day,
who, during the last three years, have
done splendid work in the inconceiv-
ably dangerous and harassing warfare
of the Eastern tropics" and wrote:
"If the work done was splendid,
the workers may not be classed as
'wrongdoers' subject to punishment.
But, should such became a political
necessity Il Chaffce-Sm Bell Hughes

KING EDWARD IS VERY LOW.

| To the great disappointment of the
people OF London and all loya! British
subjects i'll every part of the world
King Edwards coronation has been in
definitely postponed. His majesty is
lying dangerously i'll at Buckingham
palace. An operation has been per-
formed on the royal patient and it will
be some days before the physicians can
positively say that he is out of danger.
The gravest fears are felt fer his life,
and member of the r3yal family is
reported to have admitted that the
doctors in attendance hold out scarcely
any hope of recovery. 1t is generally
believed that he is afflicted with a fatal
malady and that he cannot live many
days.
The king had presentiment that
he would never be crowned in West
minister Abbey. Within few days of
the coronation he fell ill, and if he re.
covers the ceremony will not be per-
formed this year in public. A gloom
has fallen over the city on the Thames.
After weeks Of elaborate preparations
at enormous expense the Cockneys are
grievously disappointed. Many of
them are bankrupt. The thousands
who had focked to the city from far
and near are leaving for their homes
or have crossed over to the continent.
The Irish Standard has always en-
tertained friendly feelings for King
Edward and regrets his illness at this
time. 1t sympathizes with those sub
jects of his who had gone thousands
of miles from Canada and Australia
and other British dominions beyond
the seas to witness the coronation. To
the democracy of Great Britain, whose
lawful sovereign he is, the Irish Stand
ard extends it's condolences: but to the
of England and the plutOc-
racy Of America who had been ex-
pectng to participate in the festivities,
it has not one word of regret for their
keen disappointment.
We believe that the people of Ire
land have kindly feelings for King
Edward. During his short reign he
has done nothing to merit their dis
pleasure. He intended to have visited
Ireland some months ago, but post
poned the journey on the advice of his

l.. A. Rosing will receive the support
not only of the Democrats of the state.
but Of thousands Of Populists and in
dependent Republicans who desire
change in state administration. It is
not enough to elect Mr.. Rosing as gov
ernor. In order to effect reforms he
must have the legislature at his back
and every candidate on his ticket must
be elected. In his letter declining the
nomination for governor John Lind
said:
II cannot escape the conviction that
my nomination, if ratified at the polls,
would be of but little service to the
state. The governors Office, by recent
legislation, has been, in great mea-
sure, deprived CT it's efficiency i'll the
administration of THE affairs of the
state, and recent legislatures have
shown no disposition to solve the state
problems that confront u.s. L have not
the patience to waste my time in idle
effort, if elected, nor have 1 the faculty
Oh disposition to compete in the cam
paign of humbuggery that the opposi-
ton leaders arc apparently planning to
force upon the people of this state"
These words of Mr.. Lind are true,
and the Republicans know it. The
election of Mr.. Rosing will not be pro-
ductive Of much good to the state I'M
less the people elect members Of the
legislature to carry out his recommen-
dations and elect state officers in
sympathy with the principles Of the
platform OH which he stands. Every
thing rests with the people. If they
are satisfied and want no reforms let
them re-elect Van SAINT; if they desire
a change, let them support Rosing and
the nominees of the Democratic party.
The Irish Standard will support Rosing
and the entire ticket to the best of it's
ability in the coming campaign and is
confident of victory if the people are
sufficiently intelligent and patriotic to
vote for the best interests of the state
and nation.
