vo,lNe AMERICAN HEIRESS BE- COMES BRIDE OF LORD
 DECIES.
SOCIAL EVENT OF SEASON
1 avish Expenditure of Money Distin. ouIshes the AffaIr--Story of the Middle-Aged British Noble
 mans Courtship.

New York, Feb. 7.-England nopll- itv was enriched by the addition Of several moye millions of American dollars when Miss Vivien Gould, aged IS. second daughter of MT. and Mrs. Georee Jay Gould, became the wife of Lord Decies, a middle-aged English nobleman, this afternoon. The we'd ding. which was the most important pcjal event of the season, took place at 4 o'clock in St. Bartholomew church. and that fashionable edifice was crowded to the doors by the so- cial elect of this country and many members of English society,
 No expense had been spared in making the arrangements, and it was the most lavish affair of this kind that New York society has ever wit messed, with the exception perhaps of the wedding of Miss Marjorie Gould, the brides elder sister, which took place ten months ago.
 Preceding the ceremony, Miss Gould gave luncheon to her maid of honor, Miss Edith Gould, and her six brides maids, Miss Beatrice Clahin, daughter of MT. and Mrs. John Clafn; Miss Hope Hamilton, cousin of the bride; Miss Louise Cromwell of Washington; Miss Hannah Randolph of Philadel phia Miss Allison Pierce, daughter of Mir. and Mrs. w. s. Pierce, and Miss Emeline Holmes.
 Montrose's Son Is Best Man.
 Lord Alistair Graham, son of the duke of Montrose and cousin to Lord Decies, acted as best man, and serv- ing as ushers were Earl Percy, Lord Camoya, Robin Gray, Phoenix Ingra- ham, Moncure Robinson, Robert H. Russell Anthony J. Drexel, Jr., and Francis w. Crowninshield.
 A magnificent reception was held at the Gould mansion on Fifth avenue after the church service, to which all the guests were invited. The great house had been decorated from top to bottom at an enormous expenditure.
 The bride and bridegroom will go to California on the honeymoon trip, and then start for London, where Baron Decies has taken a house for the sea son As the groom is a peer of Great Britain, his young American bride will nave a part in the coronation cere- monies next summer.

is possible in the federal government,
so it opposed having uniform OIL
yorce law because it will serve as an
entering wedge for the Capitalization

be fully able TO enact suitable divorce
laws, because they know the feelings
of the people on this subject far bet
ter than a few representatives in con-
gress can possibly know them.
The people are not of one mind on
this subject, because the states are
peopled so differently-some by the
English, some by the Spanish. some
by the Dutch, some by the Norwe-

BUY LAND WHILE 1T IS YET
CHEAP

Hon. Miles Poindexter. United
States senator from the state OF
Washington, says that the desire for
lands is Unsuitable; that it is inner
ent in the great race which has prin-
cipally settled and given form and
character 10 our nation. Homes
upon the land are social and eco
nomic necessity, and by the cruel
law of supply and demand the need
for land has been intensified, and is
being intensified a thousand-fold.
while the supply has been CORES
pondingly exhausted.
Mr.. Poindexter's observations are
true, and should be needed by those
who have no homes, and they should
bestir themselves TO get a piece of
land upon which to make home
while the price of lands are yet with
in the reach of the comparatively
poor.
The offer Florida makes TO this
class is particularly attractive. Her
climate, while not always beatific, is
the mildest and most equible of any
state in the Union, owing 10 its ge-
ographical position. She has twelve
hundred miles Of ocean front, and
her bays, rivers, lakes and springs
are numerous and are abundantly
supplied with fish. No other state
has so large a number Of food fishes.
Her woods are yet literally supplied
with game and game birds.
She has large areas OF land yet IN
developed, ranging of course from
very rich to very poor. but the most
of it is capable of high state of
cultivation.
We have hard rock and pebble
phosphate, lime, gypsum. and other
wealth-yielding deposits that will
keep large number of her popula-
ton employed for many years yet to
come, and other wealthEielding
substances will be discovered in the
process of time.
Her lumber mills and turpentine
farms are now yielding riches TO
their owners, and are giving employ
ment to many unskilled laborers.
Staple crops, vegetables, fruits
and nut-yielding trees grow in rich
and greater variety than perhaps in
any other state in the Union.
Great enterprises are in process OF
development, and the homeseekers
are pouring in from all directions;
activities are going on in every COM
munity and the trend is upward and
onward. II is our deliberate judg-
ment that a man will make no mis-
take TO buy him a home in Florida,
and the quicker he does so the less
inroads it will make upon his pocket
book He viii find it economy to do
so at once.

WILSON'S GOOD POLITICS

The action of Gov. Wilson of New
Jersey in objecting to a resolution of
the democratic state convention in
dorsing him for the presidency, will
be very generally commended 1t will
also have the effect of strengthening
him with the people. 1t shows that
ne dosen't want TO take undue ad-
vantage of any other candidate; that
ne is willing TO stand on an equal
footing with other candidates.
In New Jersey. under new law, it
is for the people to make choice of
presidential candidates. If he had
permitted the democratic state con-
vention TO endorse him, he would
nave had in his state an advantage in
the primary 10 choose delegates TO
the democratic national convention
over others. Naturally democrats
would have been Influenced in their
choice in the primary by the action
of their state convention. Gov. Will
son was a member of the convention,
and was therefore in position 10 get
the conventions Endorsement, if he
had wanted it.
And it was good politics for him TO
take the position he did in regard
to the matter, though there is no rea-
son for thinking that he played poll
tics in objecting to the Endorsement.
There is no doubt that he will have
strong opposition at home, because
ali of the leaders of the old organiza-
ton are against him. but there are
reasons for thinking that he will have
practically the whole of the delega-
ton. Here and there the opposition
TO him may succeed in e1ecting q del
egate, but the unit rule will doubtless
prevail. In that event the vote of
the New Jersey delegation viii be for
him.
The state convention unanimously
Endorsed his administration as gov
ernor. 1t could hardly have done
otherwise in view of its success. He
has elevated politics in New Jersey
10 higher plane than it has occupied
in many years, and he has brought
about reforms that the people ap-
preciate. He has made a record that
is having a good influence through
out entire country. He has shown
what can be done for the people in
the publication of politics and the en-
actment of good laws by a governor
wholly devoted 10 their welfare 1t
is because he has made a splendid
record that he stands such a good
chance of being nominated by his
party for president
There dosen't seem to be any
doubt anywhere, except among a few
insurgents, that Mr.. Taft will be re-
nominated, and the impression is
growing that Gov Wilson could de-
feat him. That this view is coming
more and more TO be accepted is evil
dent from the reports that are COM
ing from different parts Of the coun-
try.-Savannah Mornig News.
