Brother-in-Law to Italy,s Queen.

Through his marriage, Prince Peter
is not only brother-in-law of the present
Queen of Italy, but likewise of the Grand
Duchess Peter of Russia. of the Russian
Duchess George of Leuchtenberg, who,
as a member of the reigning house Of
Russia, is an imperial highness.' and
likewise of Princess Francis Joseph IF
Battenburg. In one word, King Peter
enjoys an advantage denied both TO King
Alexander and to the latter's father,
King Milan--that is to say, he is related
10 quite large number of the reigning
houses of Europe, and is treated by them
as a kinsman.
Another advantage which he possesses
over the ilI-fated Alexander is that he
has large number of heirs. Alexander
was not only childless, but, unique
among the reigning sovereigns of Eu
rope, was without any relative whom
he could designate as his heir appar-
ent, whereas in the case of King Peter
the succession of the throne is amply
assured. For not only has he two
sons, but there is also his younger
brother. Prince Arsene, above mention
ed as being a Russian officer, and who
has an eleven-year- son, while he
has also two second cousins, great
grandsons of BLACK George" the foun

Time to be Moderate.


One of the members of the Union
Utility company feels very much
aggrieved over the attitude Of the
people of town toward that company.
He says that the company has spent
$4,000 in the town. 100000 of
this was spent in buying the water
and gas rights and the remainder
was expended on the street car line.
He says that it will be impossible
to get any returns on their invest
ment for two years at least and may
be longer. They do not expect
returns from the street car line soon
but have built for the future and
for the benefit and upbuilding of the
town.
On every hand they have met OPP
position. They got The worst from
South Park. The county court threw
them down on the west side in re-
ference to widening the road. They
got it in the neck from the same
source about the fills at the Walnut
street bridge. They are being held
up in South Morgantown by refrac-
tory property owners. And so on
and so forth.
On the other hand the patrons oil
the company think it is getting too
chesty They want them toIsign con
tracts which are distasteful to them.
They have torn up streets and have
not fixed them as council thinks
they should be fixed They are act
ing as if they owned the town and
the fullness thereof. And so on and
so forth.
The truth of the matter is that
both sides may be little too "stren-
uous." They should understand
each other thoroughly and then
there will he no trouble. Ii the
company will take the public into
its confidence the public will do
what is fair.
There is no desire on the part OF
any one to do the company any in
Justice And there is no intention
on the part of the public to allow
the company to do any injustice to
it.
It will be well to consult and
modify the conditions as well as &c
molly those who think they are
aggrieved. There is no reason fol
fussing when reasonable terms
are laid down. And no other terms
should be permitted for an instant
if fighting will prevent them from
being carried out.

Anglomaniacs and Anglophobes.

In q speech at banquet given in his
honor in London the other night John
Hays Hammond, the well known
American mining engineer, spoke a
true word when be said that neither
AnGlomaniacs nor An-lophobes were
expOnents OF the real sentiment Of this
country toward Great Britain. He
advised his hearers mot 20 pay too
much attention TO the extravagant ex-
pressions Of friendship Of a certain
well meaning but discredited class
called in America 'Anglomaniacs.' "
The American "Anglophobes," the in.
tense hatcrs Of everything British,
came IN for IN equal criticism. Both
Of these classes" said Mr.. Hammond,

It may come, and those who do not
Ike us may 60 hang.
We are friendly disposed toward
Great Britain not because Of racial
ties or Of n common language, but be
cause it is our policy TO be on good
terms with all nations with which our
interests do not seriously conflict. The
friendship should be placed there and
here upon n practical and not senti.
