effect that Wayns was an unscru-

er. She did not believe the asser-
ton, but it troubled her neverthe-
less and left her in a doubtful
frame of mind. She had no moth
erto consult in the emergency, for
Mrs. Desborough had died when
Gertrude was in her infancy and
she shrank from asking her faith
er's advice in the matter.
But an event was scheduled to
occur which Gertrude had never
counted upon. To all outer ap-
pearances her father had long ago
ceased to participate actively in
the strife of the business world
and was supposed to be living a
life of luxurious ease, regardless
of the fluctuations of the stock
market; so great was the girls
surprise and CONSERVATION one
night when Merton Desborough
gravely informed her that a series
of unlucky speculations had re-
suited in the loss of his large for
tune, and that they would be OBJ
liged to retire from the world of
society wherein she had so long
reigned as an acknowledged belle
and hiress. Yet when the first
shock of the announcement had
passed away Gertrude's pride and
courage came to the rescue and
she threw her arms around her
fathers neck and kissed him ten
derby.

GERTRUDES LOVERS
By Charles L. Doyle.
Gertrude Desborough, daugh-'
Ter of old Merton Desborough,
the coal-oil millionaire, was at
tractive in more ways than one.
To begin with, she possessed an
enviable share of good looks and
a generous supply of common
sense. Naturally there were not
lacking Suitors who cast longing
eyes on the heiresS of the Desbor-
ough millions, and of these Lionel
Wayne and Hugh Winslow were
the most favored = Gertrude
showing perhaps slight partial
ity for the former.
Wayne was ready talker, al
ways entertaining and handsome
in what some people considered
a rather effeminate way, while
WmSloW was reserved, Selt-pOS-
sessed and built on sterner lines
than his rival. Both moved in the
best circles, but neither was over
burdened with money. The
question that troubled Gertrude
was whether it was her wealth or
herself which formed the princi-
pal attraction for her admirers.
She cared nothing for the fact
that neither of the young men in
question was rich in this worlds
goods, but she cared a great deal
to know whether their affection
was sincere or assumed.
In her heart she felt that

n n a Communication to the STAR a reader queries whether a
statute could not be passed to forbid an aspirant for a presi-
Dental nomination to secure a governorship simply as a base
of operations with an official salary of $4,000 to finance his cam!
paign, his time during his incumbency of the goyernorsh1p being
occupied mostly with campaign trips throughout the country. We
believe it would be difficult to frame a law to fit the case. GOV.
errors take office without any specific pledge that they will stay
on the job, although they swear that they will administer their
duties faithfully. 1t remains for them to interpret what that
means. and if, as in the case of Governor Wilson, the Interpretation
is an exceedingly liberal one, who shall call the governor to ac.
count? If the object of acceptance of a nomination for governor is
merely that of a steppingstone to a higher Office, how could a
law disable that object or yacate the Office? In essential respects
the man who assumes the governorship does so upon his honor.
He is elected for "a term of three years, and that is virtually a
contract between him and the people. If the people are dissatisfied
with his administration they cannot expel him from office. As
they are compelled to live up to their part of the contract, should
nor honor forbid the governor to violate his, either by neglect,
absence or resignation? Nor is it with the best of feeling that
the people. who see the election contract violated, contemplate
the State.

In the prisoners who were arraigned. It

RECOGNIZE NEW CHINA NOW.

II EFT the United States be the first nation to recognize the
II republic of China. There is not the slightest reason for
further delay. China has but one government. There is no
seInblance of another within her borders, de facto or de jure. The
abdicated Manchu dynasty sets up no pretense of existence. It's
followers who remain under arms are merely in instruction against
established rule. China already regards America as her best friend
She lis modelling herself az nearly as possible upon our institutions
and our ways. Here is a chance to cement more closely the bond of
amity with a nation of 10000 900 people that is destined to be
come the most powerful of any east or west of US. Representative
Sulzer has introduced a resolution in the House congratulating the
new republic If passed that will be formal recognition from only
a part Of our governmental machinery. Justice and policy point to
such recognition from our state department as representing the
whole nation We were shamefully tardy with Portugal. Why
not atone for it with China?

EMPLOYMENT FOR THE INSANE.

NAV HILE studying the problem how to meet the great and
WV increasing burden that is put upon the State by the care
of the insane New Jersey will do well to look into the
Wisconsin method, In that State the 5000 demented, instead Of
being huddled together in idleness, are divided among thirtyfve
institutions, graded as TO the care they need, and more than 20
per cent Of them are employed in productive industry. In this
way the patients pay more than half the cost of their support, the
asyluns are less like prisons and The ratio of cures is much greater
than in States which follow antiquated systems, like New Jersey,
where the only employment of consequence given to the insane is
farm and dairy work at Morris Plains, which merely provides a
portion of the table supplies of the institution itself. Compare
lively few insane persons are utterly useless. AS a rule these
unfortnnates have some line of knowledge or skill that they can
follow, reimbursng the State and aiding their own recovery.

dLOoMY spRLNd OPENING EoR ENGLAND.

SH HE spring will open gloomily for England. The impending
great coal miners strike casts a threatening shadow over the
land Tomorrow is the date set for the notices by the
miners federation to the coal operators to expire. After that date
anything may happen, and If the strike is urged to extremity there
will be sorry times in England, unless the government can find some
means Of rescue of the country from the disaster and calamity sure
to ensue. 1t may be compelled to adopt the extreme step of appro-
pTiating the mines as government property as the only means of
salvation. We have our impending mining troubles, too. The
anthracite coal miners demand more pay, shorter hours and bet
tered conditions, and it is said that the operators will refuse to
comply with the demands and prefer to sustain a strike, for which
they are prepared. There are $4,000 miners represented in The
conference in New York which is to decide whether a strike shall

HdH-cLAss AMERICAN LABOR ArLAwRENcE.

I'M MEXICAN labor is highclass and must not be put on a level
IA with the pauper labor of Europe. This is the familiar high
tariff doctrine. And what sort of highcass American labor
do we find enjoying the benefits of protection, for instance, in the
Schedule X mills of Lawrence? That same pauper labor of Europe,
brought over by the shipload. As a Republican senator, Poindex
ter, of Washington, puts it in a nutshell, millowners, after secur
ing a protective tariff on the ground that the high class of
American labor requires it, seour the world for the lowest class of
labor they can find and treat it with barbarity. Slavery is the
senator's word for the condition of the Lawrence toners. So much
for highclass American labor and the protection it gets.
