PHRASE OF QUEER ORIGIN.
"Morganatic Marriage" Suggests the
Mirage Of the Desert-The
"Fata Morgana."

One Of the words having a deriva-
ton the significance Of which is lost
upon most of those who use 1t is
"morganatic," in the term, "a NOR
ganatic marriage"
Such a union between a royal
parsonage and woman Of inferior
rank is not uncommon in Germany,
or at least it was not until recently.
The man gives the left hand to the
woman when the ceremony takes
place. The wife gains no rank by
her union with a man Of royal blood,
nor do her children become princes
and princesses. They are regarded
as perfectly legitimate by the law,
but they have no right to the prop.
erty of their father.
The origin Of the name given to
such mockeries Of marriage seems to
he the optical illusions of the des-
erts. The Italians call the mirage
which mock parched and weary trav-
elers "fata morgana," that is, the de-
lusions Of the Morgana.

VALUE OF cocoANUT PALM
Trees Many Uses Have Made It AL
most Indispensable in the
Tropics.

There is absolutely no part Of the
cocoanut palm which is without its
uses. The tree grows all through the
tropics, but 1t is the natives of the
Philippines and other islands in the
Pacific who most largely depend
upon it.
First, the nut is valuable and al
most complete food, and the liquid
which the shell contains is a refresh
ing drink. From the husk is made
ropes, sails, netting, and the familiar
cocoanut mating. The leaves are used
for matching and make the best and
lightest roofs in existence.
The leaf ribs are formed into brooms
or else are used for fuel, while the
ashes mixed with the oil crushed from
the nut form an excellent soap. The
shells form cups and goblets.
The trunk makes excellent pillars
for house buildings, being both strong
and light, while cut into sections, and
with the pith followed out, 1t forms
tubs, casks and water pipes. From the
roots Is made red dye, and the green
crown, or central bud, when crushed,
gives liquor called tuba, delicious to
drink and which when fermented
makes first-class vinegar.

AS TO Mr.. HEARST.

Richmond News Leader Democracy
Somebody sends us copy of the letter
of Nathan Straus praising William Ran
dolph Hearst and declaring their purpose
to vote for him for governor Of New
York. We had seen and published the
letter already. Our correspondent seems
to wonder how with such an endorse
ment from such high authority before
us could continue to distrust and dislike
Mr.. Hearst.
We have learned to be very distrust-
full of personal endorsements and recon-
mendations, no matter how good or how
many the names attached to them may
be. There is not fakir, quack or
fraud, no matter how brazen or bare
faced, who cannot come before the pub
lie commended by some respectable and
intelligent people. We see it in the
newspaper advertisements all the time.
Probably some patent medicines are
good and certainly some are bad, but ali
of them can parade long strings of tes-
timonials. Mr.. Straus evidently was
strongly prepossessed in Mr.. Hearst's
favor and seems to be his intimate friend
and it happens every day that the very
best men are misled, deceived and bam-
boozled by the very basest. The fact
that Mr.. Hearst's home life is described

WHY Men DON'T Dance

It is difficult to find a reason for
the languor Of the young men Of the
day, who see no shame in admitting
that they don't dance. There is but
one explanation for their conduct.
This may be found in the fact that
the partners Of the twentieth cen
fury have grown apace, while the
male community has, with some ex-
ceptions, almost ceased to reach the
middle size. To a small man of, say,
Napoleonic stature, the ordeal OF
tackling a tulle bundle Of some five
feet ten In height is somewhat ter
rifying.-The Gentlewoman.
Distinctly Eligible.
He came hurriedly from the parlol
to the piazza.
"Who was that handsome young
man who just left?" he asked.
The fair girl smiled and blushed.
THAT was Harry Parker, pa" she
said. HE has Just proposed to me
and he tells me that his income Is
$4,000 a year."
Fifteen thousand a year at his
age? Great Scott, what is he?

principles or for men. What merit is
there in such solidity? For many years
the Southern Democracy has been solid
"for crazy quilt platforms and chronic
candidates who have been repudiated at
the POLLS" and from present indications
it will be solid for the same things in
1908. 1t has been solid as a party of
obstruction rather than construction,
arrayed solidly against the principles
and policies of the Republicans-those
principles and policies that have been
developing the vast natural material re-
sources Of the South and that have
wonderfully accelerated its industrial
progress.
1t is meet and proper that the South
ern Democracy, who have been so plant,
both as to platform and candidates,
should be placed in the vanguard of the
party. An opportunity should be given
for its complete overthrow and the
termination of its pestiferous DONNA
ton of this naturally favored section of
the Union. By all means let the South
ern Democrats be placed in front for the
next battle.

Mr.. Bryan declares that the election
on the 9th inst. showed that the trend
of public sentiment is toward the Demo
cratic party. The results in his own
State, Nebraska, indicate that such is
not the case. The Republicans carried
that State by an increased majority.
Organism and Democracy have recently
been looked upon as one and the same
thing and it is generally conceded that
Mr.. Bryan will be the leader of the
Democracy in 1908. If Mr.. Bryan lost
ground in his own State, where he made
a strenuous fight to win, how can he
truthfully say that he and his party are
growing stronger, as indicated by the
election of the 9th instant?

SOLID-F0R WHATP

The South is solid. Minnesota and
Rhode Island have the empty honor of
Democratic Governors. Idaho elects an
anti-Mormon Executive and Nevada
stands by the Silver party against the
Republicans. There is a possible gain
of twenty representatives from the
Northern and Western States and a
loss of several senatorial seats. This
is the sum total of Democratic success
in Tuesdays balloting. No democracy
in quantities that count anywhere in
the country except in the South; and
yet this section is expected to take no
step in politics except on the nod from
self-constituted leaders in the enemy's
country, and to accept any kind of
patchwork crazy-quilt platforms that
may captivate the restless fancies Of
chronic candidates who are regularly
repudiated at the polls by their own
communities. Here we are now, the
only reliable contingent of the party,
sitting as mute as the poor boy at the
frolic, afraid to say who or what we
want, for fear of being charged with
disloyalty by men who, not knowing
what constitutes Democracy, are sim
ply making stalking horse of the or
ganization to air their fads upon. There
is need for declaration of independ-
ence and for man to voice it. Norfolk

"rAE POLL TAX REQUIREMENT"

A few days ago the Richmond Times
Dispatch had peculiar editorial under
the above head. After quoting at
length those sections of the Constitu-
ton that require the treasurers of coun-
ties and cities to certify list of those
who have paid their poll taxes as re-
quired by the Constitution, that directs
the clerk to print and have posted said
list, to deliver a copy to the judges of
election for use at the polls, etcet., the
Times-Dispatch gives utterance to the
following:
''This is most important provision OF
the election law, and it should be ex-
ecuted to the letter and with the great
est possible care. The list thus furnish
ed the judges of election must be their
guide to determine wether or not a
voter has paid his tax according to law,
and if by any error voter who has
paid his tax is not listed, the judges cam
n vote him unless he produces his tax
receipts to show that he has complied
with the law. 1t is not always easy for
taxpayer to lay hands upon his tax re-
ceipts for three years back, and it may
sometimes happen that he would have
no time to go and fetch such receipts
before the polls should close. In any
event, it is hardship on him to put him
to this trouble, and it is greater hard
ship and injustice if he should through
clerical error be deprived of his vote.
The Tines Dispatch has reason to be-
lieve that errors of that sort are made
every ear, and if ever there be close
contest in Virginia, such errors are go
/, ing to make no end of trouble.
\ But voters themselves should take
care to protect their own interests.
Before election day, each and every voter
should take the trouble to see that his
poll-toxes are all paid up and that he
has due credit on the books of the treas
urer."
The shoe must be pinching when we
find the leading Democratic paper in
the State cautiously crit Using one of
the many iniquities of the poll tax quail
y i6cations for voting. But the Times
Dispatch has evidently not fully real
lied the full danger of the obstruction
that is placed in the way of the cleo
torate by the requirement that no man
shall be a qualified voter at an election
whose name is not entered upon the
treasurer's list as having paid his poll
taxes as required by the Constitution.
The voter cannot produce "his tax re-
ceipts to show that he has complied
with the law" and in that way secure
his vote if he has been left off the list.
The many intricate and exacting re-
quirements of the poll tax prerequisite
provisions prove concluswely that the
originators of those provisions intended
to entrap men and deprive them of their
suffrage. Each year each voter in the
State has to fight his way to the ballot
box over the distractions that have been
put in his way for the obvious purpose
ofcurtailing the electorate of the State.
Through intentional as well as uninten-
tional errors in the treasurers lists many
thousands of men are deprived each
year of the right to vote.
The iniquitous suffrage and registra-
ton laws of the new Constitution must
be wiped out if we are ever to have
honest elections in Virginia.
