Love the MatchDaker.
II Is a fact that in every morganatic
marriage love has been the matchmaker.
For what other reason but love would
any one cast aside his privileges, or at
least those Of his children.
Modern conditions have changed the
old institution considerably, without, how
ever. altering II fundamentally. Even In
Germany, that country of many reigning
families, the old feudalism has been
largely abolished and distinctions of class
are less pronounced. Intermarriages be-
tween simple noblemen and women from
the bourgeoisie, or even the lower classes.
are quite accepted nowadays. The laws
Of "Ebenburtigkeit" are reserved cxcIu-
sively for the higher nobility" the reign
ing families, or those that have once
reigned. They were definitely agreed upon
in 1915, and they are Incorporated in the
German code, being not only upheld by
the respective family DEGREES but also oy
the constitution. For reasons historical
and political. to preserve the purity Of
blue blood is the first and last consid-
Grafton. Wherever a union imperils II,
the descendency Of this union is barred
from succession.
Some Exceptions.
However. there are historical exceptions
even to this rigid rule. One of these is
of peculiar interest because OF its wide
spread consequences.
II the chosen bride belongs to the no.
bility. though not "ebenburtig," her chill
dren may be proclaimed Of their fathers
rank upon a special agreement OF his
equals. This was done in the case Of
Duke George William Of Braunchweig-
Lunsburg Zelle, who VAS united in NOR
ganatic wedlock to Eleonore TOlbreuse.
a French noblewoman OF secondary rank.
The dukes younger brother. the first
Prince. elect of Hanover drew up and
countersigned the contract by which the
bride was refused the title Of Duchess OF
Brunswick's though, IL she should bear
daughters and they should marry into
prsncely houses, they would be considered
Of ducal rank. As II happened, her only
daughter. Sophie Dorothia. became the
bride OF Prince George Louis, heir to
the crown CT Hanover and later the first
Hsnoverian King Of England. Their
daughter, In turn, was married to the
Prince Elector Of Brandenburg. Fredor-

Francis Ferdinand.

However. the only morganatic mar
riage OF real significance In recent times
was that Of the murdered Francis Fer
dinand. Being heir TO the throne, being
duly married and yet unable to give an
empress to Austria was q serious plight.
especially A. his wife, the Duchess OF
Hohenberg. nee Choteck. was most in
censed at having to yield precedence TO
the pretty little princess from Palma.
zIta, wife Of the heir presumptive The
murder Of Empress Elizabeth and the
mysterious death OF Archduke Rudolph
left Austria without a first lady Of the
land until the marriage of Zita, the
Countess Choteck being absolutely
barred from the family as not ''eben-
burtig."

Ferdinand had lived to succeed the aged
Emperor IL Is difficult to imagine be-

The New Heir.

Now that the tragedy Of saraJevo
has ended the lives of the heir and
his morganatic wife, the movement in
favor of Francis Ferdinand's twelve
year-old son. Maximilian Charles, is
being given a fresh impetus by the
Vtennese journalist. Count Sternburg.
With all the trouble and the ex-
treme political dificulties facing the
new heir. Archduke Charles Francis
Joseph, in case the old Emperor should
leave him soon in sole charge OF the
empires destinies, there is another
problem here. 1t is probable that Hun
gary will claim the late heirs son as
her king. II she were able TO force
her point-which. however. seems most
doubtful-it would mean the immediate
separation Of Hungary from the en-
pire of Austria What would Hungary
do under such circumstances? She is
not self-supporting, needs the financial
aid Of Austria. and considerations Of
that sort will very likely prompt her
to put water in her wine"-that is
submit to the inevitable and swear al
legianee to Charles Francis Joseph.
Nevertheless. great changes within
the empire seem Imminent. and more
important ones than the peaceful sew
erance of Hungary. The grayer trou-
BILE will come from the South, from
those ever restless. fermenting Balkan
states and provinces. Bulgaria, II is
true. must be expected to nurse friend
ly relations with Austria: King Ferdi-
nand's hrst wife vas a Princess of
Parma and q sister OF the Archduchess
Zita. Hence. Crown Prince Boris. Of
Bulgaria, is the nephew of the future
rulers over Austria.

The Inverness Chronicle formally
affirms in head-letter type that ED
itors are Human. Doubtless this is
true, but we have sometimes thought
that the presence of the angelic
streak in some of them was the only
way to account for the cheerful and
healthy philosophy they continue to
preach when they see so much of
the meanness and littleness of hui
man nature. Doubtless their faith is
sustained by the well-known fact
that there are many more good men
in every community than the other
kind, and resentment and spite and
falsehood and SANDER are confined
to a comparatively small bunch
whose influence in the long run
never hurts an upright man nor a
worthy cause.

Last Tuesday the people of Geor-
gia were called from their occupa-
lions to go to the polls and vote
upon an amendment to the State
constitution which would raise the
wages of the judge of one of their
courts, the legislature having no
power to do so. So much for a back
number constitution framed by a
convention which didn't have conf
dence enough in the intelligence
and integrity of the legislature of
Georgia to permit it to fix the sal
airy of a Judge. There is a popular
superstitution in this country that
our constitutions are the sum of all
wisdom, infallible instruments, too
sacred to be touched, but as they
are made by mere men no more in
spired than the rest of us the in
fallibility theory is fiction that
has outlived it's usefulness There
should be the least amount of legis-
lation in the organic law of any
land consistent with the true pur-
pose of constitution, and matters
of detail vitality affected by chang.
ing conditions should be kept out of
such instruments and left for the
various legislatures to take care of !.
1t is just as unwise for a State con-
stitution to fix salaries for State Of
fees as it would be for the federal
constitution to fix enc salaries of
federal offices, but fortunately the
trainers of the latter instrument had
too much good judgment for that
and they very properly left the mat
ter for Congress to regulate. TIL,
constitution which commands the
least respect and does the most harm
is the one that carries the most leg
lslation in it. At the November
election in Florida we will have an
opportunity to wipe out one of the
absurd and archaic requirements oil
our own constitution by voting fol-
an amendment to give the legisla-
ture the power to fix the salaries Of
our judges. and that amendment
ought to be adopted.
