The American girls who marry lords
are commonly supposed to owe their con
quests to coin. Miss Caroline Fitzgerald,
of New York, who U engaged to Lord
Edward Filzmaurice, has uthtr claim to
distinction. She i a classical scholar and
linguist, a student of Sanskrit, a member
of the Oriental Society and a poetess be
sides. Add to all this that she Is only
twenty-one and an heiress in her own
right and it is no wonder that the younger
brother of the Viceroy of India succumbed.
Q&even hundred millions in the Nation 1
treasury. That is considerable money.
It belongs o the people and much of it
should be in circulation. True a great deal
is held for the redemption of coin certifi
cates, but aside from this sum there is a
great pile of money in the gorernment
vaults thfct should never have been col lect
ed from the people, for the government
cannot use it except for corrupt or extrav
agant purposes.

Society should be awakened to the ne
cessity of self protection. Education, as a
protective measure, should be more thor
ough and more practical. The wealth of
the country should be more heavily assess
ed lo sustain a broader and better educa
tion. It is to its own interests to have the
masses educated ; and having done all
that should be done to educate everybody,
men should be held strictly responsible for
th-ir crimes, and the foolish, soft-headed,
soft-hearted sentiments that plead for
mercy for red handed criminals and chron
ic depredators upon the rights of others
should cease.
Senator Ingalls of Kansas has been
placated. Some weeks ago the republican
papers printed the story that Preside nt
Harrison told the Kansas senator, who was
isking the removal of a democratic official
in the middle of his term, that uwe, (the
republicans,) must do at least as well as
Cleveland did" in that matter. Then In
galls asked Harrison, significantly 'Where
is Cleveland now f" This hint mut have
been sufficient, for at Tope ka the other dav
Senator Ingalls told some complaining
patriots : "I think we are doing quite
well. There have been four times as many
changes made In the postcflices in Kansas
by President Harrison as were made by
Cleveland in the same length of time. In
my county there is not a democratic post
master remaining."
Inm-rk at Once. Mr. Julius Grad
wohl's advice to the people of Albany ts to
insure at once before it is tco late, for the
lire fiend is devastating the cities of the
N. W. Mr Grail wohl represents seven
solid companies, with an aggregate cap)
ul of $76,000,000 and a cah deposit of
.55C,ooo at Salem. As well as business
mcn.farmers should insure their crops,
for they will burn, a a number of cases
already testify. Though Mr Gradwohl's
companies lost tome in Seattle, Vancou
ver, Kllensburgh and Spokane Kalis their
capital is w great the loss is not felt, and
they will continue to place risks and pav
!osc with their uual promptnt, the
ame as they did aftor the great Chicago
fire, in which their losses were heavy.
