A MORAL CENSOR.
In That Role King Edward VII Was
Most Strict.


Most Strict.
When King Edward ascended the
English throne, the boon companions
of the former Prince of Wales who
thought that they would be able to
clap the new King ON the back and
be hail fellow well met with him, as
they were when he merely was the
first subject, soon found out their mis-
take. The few who tried 1t were re.
minded speedily that familiarity with
the King was quite a different thing
from familiarity with a more or less
irresponsible man of the world, who,
by the very nature of his position, was
condemned to life of pleasure seek
Ing. 1t soon became known that while
the King was no less truly democratic
than ever in his choice of friends, the
men and women he wanted about him
now, were those who had done some
thing, and who could be of use to him
in his task of governing the greatest
empire in the world. One of the
friends whom he dropped then was
Richard Croker, once boss of New
York. 1t was all right for the sport
ing Prince of Wales to meet and chat
with Croker on a racetrack, but 1t
would not look very we'll for the King
of England to be on familiar terms
with the man whose name stood for
the personification of certain kind
Of politics. At the same time, how
ever, he made a friend of j. P. Nor
gan, whose skill as financier, taste
as an art collector and generosity as
a patron of the church he much ad-
mired.
1t was as a moral censor that King
Edward caused most surprise, for no
one expected that he would be strict
in this particular. 1t soon became
known at court. however, that no one
against whose moral character there
was the slightest breath of suspicion
might expect to be received, and re-
Gently he had carried this form of
censorship further by refusing to re-
ceive either party in matrimonial
quarrel, no matter how innocent one

each for the lady, that she paid from
