Duty-Free SOnS-in-Law.

Miss Mary Elsie Moore, daughter
of Charles A Moore, president of
the American Protective Tariff
League, is to wed the Due Mario
Torlonia, knight of Malta and mem
Der of one of the most ancient of
Italian houses. His brother has
been for twelve years mayor of
Rome, and within the immediate
family are held t e titles of Duke
of Poll, Duke of Iuadagnola, and
Prince of Civitella Cesi. Only less
Immediately related are the Princess
Chigi and the Dukes Sporzia and
Cesarini.
A considerable list Of other fine
Latin names could be produced, if
necessary, to prove how very cor
rect is this international match.
Miss Moore is the daughter of an
American millionaire who for many
years has been leader in the move
ment to bar the products of the
"pauper' labor" of Europe from
these shores. We entertain no
doubts of his sincerity in this great
movement. So well has he succeeded
that he has amassed large fortune
out of the business of protected
manufacture.
But the interesting inquiry which
now occurs concerns the attitude of
Mr.. Moore toward the pauper bride
grooms of Europe. "Under ordin-
airy circumstances" said Papa
Moore, 81 am opposed to American
girls marrying titled foreignes. But
this is an exceptional case. The
duke is a man of good habits and
has not asked for a dot. BE be-
longs to one of the oldest and most
distinguished Italian families"
Which is interesting, but does not
reach the vital point. What we want
to know is, how is President Moore
to explain to a country Congress
man next winter his consent that
the hated foreigner should come in
here and capture an heiress right
out of his own family? Nobody has
contributed more to prejudice us
against foreign products than this
same Mr.. Moore. His propaganda
has been hig1ly successful, and this
announcement of his family's aIli-
ance with the nobility of Italy is no
tless than treason to the very funda-
men AIS of our american system

A Leaf From Experience.

1t is only a short time since the
railroads of the Middle West were
vocaIizing the earnest assurance
that they would never-no, never
submit to the two-cent fare outrage.
They would not have their property
thus confscated. They would make
their various and respective COM
munities smart for it-indeed they
would. And they limited at dire
methods by which to retahate. They
might increase freight rates, cut off
the passenger service, refuse to give
any more excursion rates, and all
that sort of thing. Further, they
knew some ways of retaliating,
through their adjustments Of inter
state rates, for the States imposi-
tions in the matter of local rates.
All of which was so recent that it
is still easily in mind. But what Is
the fact? Have these black threats
been carried out? Not at all The
railroads, after they had thought 1t
over, did just what they ought to
have done without any threats.
They have put in the twO-cent rate,
as to both State and interstate bust
ness, throughout the entire North
western. group of States which
adopted IL the last winter, and are
now showing a disposition to con-
cede to the public the fair treatment
that, in fact, viii be most profitable
TO both the railroads and the people.

The British in India.

Niels Gron, a Dane by birth. an
American by adoption, Harvard man
and globe trotter, has been study
ing conditions in India, and finds
small evidence that there is really
no deep-seated and widespread feel
ing among the natives antagonistic
TO British rule In an address in
Boston recently, he told the results
of his studies and observations in
India, and the London Times has
found occasion to comment with
much favor on the analysis of In
dian conditions made by Mr.. Gron.
If this student of Indian national
sentiment is correct, the great mass
of people prefer continuance of
British rule. He declares that the
institutions which the British have
established in the great peninsula
are beloved by the plain people be-
cause they assure the administra-
tion of even-handed justice as
among all the people, of all classes.
This is a vast improvement over the
conditions which prevailed under ma
tive rule.
The present agitation for Indian
independence which has caused, per-
,haps, more concern in Great Britain
than it warrants, proceeds, accord
ing TO Mr.. Gron, from the limited
upper class-the representatives of
ancient houses, rajahs, maharajahs,
professors. members of municipal
and Legislative councils, etc.-who
are inspired rather by political and
selfish ambition than by anything
akin to real patriotism. Mr.. GrOn
believes these intellectual and aris-
tocratic classes are vastly more con-
cerned about furthering their own
ambitions for power and place than
for the establishment of national
independence and autonomy. Indeed,
he declares that at a great gath
ering of natives which he attended,
composed in part of leaders in the
independence agitation, and in part
of mass of the plain people, the
speechmaking was done in English,
and was done entirely by the office
holding or aristocratic delegates.
The reason was that these people
did not dare make their assaults
upon English rule in a language
which the people could understand.
1t is not d'dicult to believe that
Mr.. Gron, while probably overesti-
mating the loyalty of the Indian
masses to English administration,
has discovered an aspect of this sit
