CorRTE.s1Es TO DA TonEETTE.

The city owes a certain amount or
courtesy to Senator La Toilette this
evening regardless Of factions or par
ties. The Times is not for him in the
present campaign. but there is a re-
spect and honor due n man who is
a aspirant for the great Office of
president, when he visits the city. Not
only should the attentions due 10 an
espirant for the chief magistracy of
the nation be accorded him. but the
auditorium should he packed 10 heal
him.
The Times has urged the voters to
hear both sides and we are neither
insincere nor partisan in that prin-
ciple. Roosevelt republicans. Taft re-
publicans and democrats should at
tend the meeting and hear what the
candidate who asks the suffrage of
tho public has to say. The meeting
should not be a LaFollette meeting
hut one in which the people of the
city pay their respects to n, distin-
cuished visitor even though on a poll
tical mission. 1t is one thing to differ
from "A candidate in the political con-
test and another TO entertain him as a
guest Of the city.

township elections where there is a
fair political representation. The
democratic votes as we'll as the few
received by President Taft. and those
which were for the prohibition or So
cialist parties that were cast are not
given In the above summary, but they
arc included in the news report.
The results cited are conclusive
alive to the fact that the only thing
Senator La Toilette can do with votes
in the Chicago convention is TO trade
them. AT the same time it is becom-
ing apparent that there will be but
two candidates in hat convention
Roosevelt and Taft-and that III wise
thing to do is for the people to say
which of these candidates they want
and no leave it to Senator LaITollctte
10 say for them .
We repeat what we have repeatedly
said that il Senator I.nI'ollette had
shown or could show now in n man
ner that would convince an intelligent
man., that he can defeat President
TAFT at Chicago in June. he is justi-
fled in asking North Dakota to tie
her votes up to him. But the sena
tor ran not show that by abusing
Theodore Roosevelt and charging that
he failed TO keep down the capitaliza-
ton of the trust, when as n matter
OF fact he was demanding legislation
from congress which would enable
him to do that very thing, and when
those demands were made on congress
Senator l.aFollette was n member Of
the senate and not n single move
would the senate make. Honestly,
now, which one is most chargeable
with the neglect that Senator LaFol-
lette is staging?
The LaFollette managers plead
with their supporters to stand by
their candidate as a matter OF prin-
ciple. This will result in continuing
the Taft policies and the influence of
the interests and Wall street as Sena-
tor LaFollette defines them, and We
have been told he was out to smite
hen hip and thigh. Russia has a
military law" that a general who
~surrenders shall be punished with
death. Intelligent people know that
such a law is the veriest brutality
and inhulnanity. But 1t Is the same
principle rs standing by a doomed
cause for principle.

unions are in closer control of the
workers, and discipline is counted on
to keep pernicious activity in check.
There is no known connection be-

SECRETLY WEDS;;
PLAY IS DELAYED
Richie Link, at Shubert's, Mar
ried to Mrs. Rose B. Win
ter at Wilmington.

While an audience waited impa
tiently for the curtain to rise at the
Shubert Theatre last night, Richie
Ling. one of the principals of "a
Butterfly on the Wheel company,
playing there, was hurrying from
Wilmington, Del, where he had been
married early In the, day to Mrs.
Rose Beatrice Winter. Mr.. Ling was
late in arriving at the theatre and
it was not until $3.50 o'clock that
the curtain was finally raised for the
opening act.
1t is understood that the wedding
was suddenly decided upon at a din
ner given on Christmas night by
Miss Jeanette N. Horton at her
home, 400 West Twentieth street,
New York, for Mrs. Winter, Mr.. Ling
and G. ]. Ranger. Early yesterday
morning the four met at the Penn
sylvania railroad and took the $3.50
O'Clock train for Wilmington. The
couple, after procuring a marriage
license, were married by the Rev.
George L. Wolfe at the preachers
home. They left Immediately after
wards for this city.
Questioned by an Evening Star re-
porter as he waited between acts,
Mr.. Ling strenuously denied that he
had been married. He went so far as
to deny that he was even acquainted
with Mrs. Winter. He asked the re-
porter who she was, and then added,
Anyway, 1 positively deny I've mar
ried anybody"
Confirmation of the marriage, how
ever, was made by Mrs. Anna Hor-
ton. mother of Miss Horton. Further
than to say that the marriage had
occurred, however, she had nothing
to say. The former Mrs. Winter,
after denying that she knew anyone
by the name of Ling. finally ad-
mitted her marriage. She would not
say why she and Ling were so op-
posed to having their marriage be-
come public.
The bride is English. Her first
husband was Percy Winter, author,
who lives at 200 West Seventieth
street, New York. They were di-
vorced. Mr. Ling, it is said, was
once married to Miss Lotta Faust
He was formerly known in light
opera.
