New Difficulties to Conquer.

Senator Scott not having sufficient
trouble with the West Virginia situa-
zion TO wholly distract his mind from
the pleasures Of life. has gone over the
Blue Ridge border into old Virginia in
search of new difficulties to conquer.
He has undertaken the contract Of not
only delivering the West Virginia dele
gates to President Roosevelt in the
next national convention, but those from
the Old Dominion as well. and in return
IS constituted the consulting agent when
there are federal appointments to fiji
IN that State, because Of the fact that
Virginia has no one in the dominant
party accredited to Washington who is
in. position to look after these mat
ters.

Grave Dynastic Interests Involved.

The crown prince has three little boys,
the eldest of whom, George is just ten
years OF age But they are, none of them
strong. and thus it is quite within the
bounds Of possibility that the child TO be
born TO the crown princess a couple Of
months hence. If a boy. may become the
legitimate heir to the throne of saxony.
Were. however, the boy TO become King,
doubts would always prevail as 10
whether he was really the son Of the
crown prince, and this uncertainty would
inevitably weaken the prestige of the
Saxon throne, and its hold upon the
loyalty and allegiance Of the Saxon
people
From this ii viii be seen that there
are grave dyEastic interests at stake,
and that the action of the Saxon court
in taking steps to secure possession OF
the crown princess child on its birth
is lot prompted by mere luminosity
against her, Lut by political considera-

Love Story Intervenes.


The crown prince of one of the great
est empires of the Old World. while
travelling by post chaise to Stuttgardt
to become officially betrothed to the
Princess Of Wurttemburg, who had been
selected as the most suitable consort
for him-by mere chance made the &C
quaintanCe Of the exi1ed prince and
princess-feII so deeply in love with the
latter that he informed his father and
the latter's government that they must
break off the match with the Princess
OF Wurttemburg, as he had determined TO
wed no other but the royal maiden Of
his choice.
Very reluctantly his demands We're
complied with BIZ his father. and an Of
fetal OFFER made to the grand duke foT
the hand OF the Princess cinderella, %
as she was called. The grand duke
was immensely battered by the prospect
Of q matrimonial alliance between his
family and the reigning house of SO
great an empire. and readily gave his
consent. and then for the first time sum
moned the princess and her brother 90
his court, and for the first time made
their acquaintance.

However, the conditions governing in
the two CaTolinas with regard to the
distribution Of Federal pie are quite

Laurin and Mr.. Capers. while in North

President could with propriety appoint

Loyalty Could be Greater.

Nevertheless, it IS a well.known fact
that their loyalty to the President
could be greater than it is. and it might
be lost altogether by few unsaHsfac-

A GOOD CITY TICKET.

Reference was made last week
by the HERALD to the growing
indisposition of business men and
active citizens to serve the city as
mayor and aldermen. Fortunately
the condition seems to have been
over-stated. There are good men
and true, men in whom the city
has implicit confidence so far as
Judgment and public spirit is
concerned, who are willing to sur
render abundantly of their time
and energy to the public welfare.
DR.. Dubois has consented to be,
come a candidate for Mayor, and
William Pangburn and Charles
Houghton for first ward aldermen,
and Leroy S. Bishop for alderman
Of the second ward. These men
are all well-known. The Doctor
was president of the old village
when the city charter was adopted:
He is in touch with every material
interest of the city. He is liberal
in his views, and conservative IN
his application of them. He is
public spirited, has a thorough
knowledge of the needs, require
ments and limitations of the city,
has good executive ability, and will
make an excellent mayor.
Mr.. Pangburn has served on the
aldermanic board for six years with
satisfaction to the city and credit
to himself.
Charles Honghton has been
resident of the city for little more
than year, but has thoroughly
identified himself with its business
interests. He owns home on the
north side, and is actively engaged
in the real estate business, with
we'll equipped office and is doing
his full complement Of work In ad-
vancing the interests of Sauk Cen
tire and it's environment. He is an
excellent business man, and the
HERALD ventures little in the pre-
diction that he will make an accept
able and valuable alderman.
Mr.. Bishop is too well-known to
need special reference. He is on
the board, has served three years,
has a commanding influence which
has ever been exerted for the bene-
fit of the city as a whole. His ex-
perience on the board admirably
qualities him for further service.
The ticket is a strong one, and
will meet with no opposition.
Partisanship has had no influence in
it's selection, and will have no con-
sideration in the administration of
the city. All these men were urged
to accept nomination because of
their fitness, so they will select their
appointive officers with reference
to fitness only. 1t is not probable
there will be any opposition to any
one of the candidates.
The completed ticket will be:
Mayor-Julian A. Dubois.
Treasurer-Cassius M. Sprague.
Aldermen-First Ward, William
Pangburn and Charles Houghton;
Second Ward, Leroy S. Bishop. !
