NOT MUCH TO BE PROUD OF Flrt ii f (lie Xnriunii l.liio (li; Only One "livery Inch u KIiik" ln tr rex time 'linukN of Itoynl llloKi'iiliy. If thoro Is anything In a name, tho reigns ot King Edward's namcBakcs on tho throne before lilm do not nugur woll for a fitting uoquel to tho glorlouu era of his mother. ) With but ono or two exceptions, relates tho Bt. Louis (ilnbo-Uemocrat, tho nlnu Kd wards who have renchod tho thro mi In tho past wcro either weak anil Incompetent or cruel iiml unscrupulous men. Ono ot them was tho poor littlo "l'rlr.co of tho Tower," i who spent his few days of kingship behind , Its gloomy walls nnd died to satisfy tho am bition ot his hunchbnek uncle. Another did not llvo to attnln his majority and was king In numn only, so that theso two cannot bo Judged, but ii healthy majority of tho other WdwardH would havo served Ungland better as plowmen than as princes. Of course It Is not tho attempt to prognosticate King Kdward's acts by tho faults or virtues of tho preceding Udwards. but It Is Interesting, now that another Udwnrd occupies tho throno for tho llrst time In nearly 400 years, to look back nt the rolgns of tho others. King Udwnrd Is really tho tenth Edward to occupy tho throno of Kiiglnnd, for thrco monnrchs of that name ruled over tho Anglo-Saxons before tho days of tho Norman conquest. Tho sovereigns of Rnglaud pre fer to number themselves, or, rather, their titles, from tho conquest, however, and bo tho now king Is King Kdward VU. Tho llrst lMword was tho oldest son of Alfred tho (Jrent, nnd was born about S70. Ho acceded to tho throno In 901. and most historians ngreo that his reign was oven greater than that of his Illustrious fathor. though ho wns not his equal In scholarly pursuits. Ho waB a great warrior and was nlmoBt uniformly successful In his engage ments with tho Danes. Ho nnue.xed Mercla to his kingdom and at tho Unto of his death in 025 ho ruled all tho coutitry south of tho Humbcr. Tho eecond I'M ward was sur namcd tho "Martyr." because of his brief reign nnd tho tiianuor of his death. Ho ascended tho throno In 9"f, but Klfrlda wns scheming to placo her own son on tho throno and thrco years later succeeded In luring King Kdward to her castle at Ware ham, where bIio stabbed him In tho back as ho was In the net ot drinking from a cup she had Just handed him. Tho third of the pro-Normnn cenquest Kdwnrds was born In 1004, aud acceded In 1013. This Kdward was known us "Tho Confessor," because of his predilection for religion, nnd wns really moro of a monk than a king. Ills quarrels with Godwin nnd Harold and his religious pursuits occupied most of his kingly tlm-!. Ilo rebuilt Westminster Abbey nnd It was his crowning ambition to hco this structure completed. Ilo lived but seven days attor It was finished In 10GG. livery Inch u KIiik. Tho first Kdward to sit on the throno nfter William tho Conqueror annexed Kng land to his royal person ascended St. Kd ward's chair in 1274, nnd was ono of tho most kingly kings Kngland has over known. Ho wns endowed with higher attributes ns a statesman than most ot tho monnrchs who havo preceded or succeeded htm, nnd though his claims to tho Scottish throno aro open to question and his treatment of tho Scotch nt times harsh and severe, It may bo ascribed as tho fault of the times and not tnken as a blot on his otherwise excellent character. Ho was an exceedingly Just man, and was broad-minded and liberal in many respects. Ono ot tho brightest things that may bo written of him Is tho fact ho was really tho foundor of the con stitutional system In Kngland. Kdward I played an Important part In tho affairs of Kngland. even before his coronation. Ho was mado governor of Onscony at tho early ngo of 13 In placo of Simon do Montfort, and this Incurred for tho youthful prlueo tho enmity of that worthy. He married Klcanor of Cnstllo In 1234, nnd thus established for his children n claim to tho throno of that kingdom. In 1261 ho mot Simon do Mont fort, who had stirred up a rebellion at Iowes, nnd met defeat. Ho was taken prisoner, but succeeded In making IiIb es cape, and Joining forces with the carl of Gloucester scored a doclslve victory over tho rebels nt Kvesham tho following year. In 12G9 ho was beBccchcd by tho popo to undertake a rrusado to tho Holy land, and Immediately undertook tho task. In 1271 ho captured Nazareth from tho Moslems nnd massacred evory man, woman and child within the wnlls of tho town. In revengo for this cruel net ho was stabbed three times with a poisoned nrrow by' a Moslem assassin, but his splendid constitution ena bled him to withstand tho effects of tho poison nnd ho recovered. Whllo still in the Holy land his father died, and ho was at onco proclaimed king. Kdward immediately sot out for Kngland, but had an adventurous trip, lighting n dermaii potentnto and In dulging lu ono or two other diversions of S1nifi mt I Nothing Lasts except merit. The medicine which has lived for years ia worthy to live. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is half a century old. It carries behind it a rocord of absoluto success. In all cases of stomach trouble, such as Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Constipation, Nervousness, Liver and Kidney i rouble, it has cured invariably. It goes to the root of these troubles, cleansing the blood and strengthening tho stomach. All druggists and dealers sell it. Boo that n Privutc Revenue Stump oovor tho top ot the bottle that sort beforo he finally set foot on his native laud. Shortly nfter his return he published tho "Statutes of Westminster," a crude arrangement of tho laws of tho time, and lu 1277 was obliged to proceed In person to quell an Insurrection among tho Welsh. Tho Welsh revolted again in 12S0,. nnd in 12S2 Kdward added Wnlcs to tho crown. King Kdward was always having trouble In keeping tho finances of his king dom straight, and In 1283 summoned repre sentatives of tho shires, boroughs and the church to sit In council on financial mat ters. This may bo termed tho first Parlia ment of Kngland, though tho llrst nctual Parliament was not summoned until 1293. In 1290 Queen Kloanor died, and In 1299 Kdward married Margaret, sister of Philip IV of France. Menuwhlle the Scotch had Implanted a sharp sting in Kdward's side. A Whirl In Scntlniiil. After ho had assisted Ballot to mount tho Scotch throne tho latter had acknowledged him ns lord paramount, hut when ho wns proparlng for his abortlvo attempt to In vado Franco Ilallol had refused hlra any as sistance. Kdward Immediately abandoned his undertaking against Franco and Invaded Scotland in 1290. Ho captured tho town of Herwlck, defeated tho Scotch at Uunbnr and took half a dozen strong caBtlcs. Ilallol was mado prisoner nnd sent to tho tower. After Kdward's return Wallaco stirred up moro troublo in Scotlnnd and Edward set out ngulust him, but wns defeated by tho Scotch warrior at Stirling bridge. This only served to spur Edward on to greater efforts, how ever, und the following yenr ho Invaded Scotland again nnd scored n victory over his northern neighbors nt Falkirk. Scot land refused to remain conquered or paci fied, howevor, despite tho success of tho English king's armod tours, nnd obstinately insisted on Kdward paying them visits In 1299, 1300 and 1301. In 1304 tho Kngllsh captured Wallaco nnd ho was oxecutcd at tho tower. Kdward now rested quietly until 1307, when tho murder of Comyns by Itobort Ilruco compelled him to ngaln tako the field. Ho was suffering from age and infirmities, but Insisted on leading his troops In person. Tho rigors of tho march wero too much for htm, though, and on tho fifth day from Lon don ho expired In his camp. His last re quest wns that his body bo borno beforo tho army until his enemies wore conquered, but for somo reason this was uot done. Edward 1J was born In 12S4 and wns crented prlnco of Wnles by his father, Ed ward I, In 1301, and was thus the llrst heir npparent to tho throno of Kngland to wear this title. He was tho direct opposite ot his father in overy respect. Ho was weak, Indolent und faithless, totally Incompetent to All tho duties of the position that fato had ordained for him. Aftor his accession In 1307 ho married tho daughter of Philip II, nnd during his absonco from Kngland left his favorite, Piers Gaveston, In charge of Its affairs. This brought down upon hlra the tro of the high officers at state and tho nobles, who demanded tho expulsion of Oaveston. Kdward clung fo his fnvorlto, with n few slight Interruptions, until 1312, when Piers was executed. Hobert Druce now became troublesomo in Scotland and Kdward marched against him with an army 100.000 strong, only to moot with n most humiliating defeat at Dannockburn. In 1319 ho ngaln marched against Scotland nnd laid slego to Herwlck, but raised tho siege, con cluded a two years' truce with Ilruco nnd returned to his capital. Aftor his troubles with tho earl of Kan caster, which terminated In tho execution' of tho carl In 1322, ho sent his wife, Queen Isabel In, on a mission to France, but when It was concluded sho refused to return to him, alleging Ill-treatment. Whllo In Franco Isabella listened with a willing ear to tho Intrigues of Itoger Mortimer, and. In 1326 landed In Kngland to establish her son king. Tho whole country flocked to her standard, and Kdward II was deposed tho same year by on act of Parliament. A few t months later ho was killed ot Ilorkolcy castle. ThUB terminated one ot tho most mtserablo reigns In Kngllsh history, reign of defeats, disappointments and dishonor. Tlilril of the Line. Kdward III was but 14 years old when ho wns proclaimed king, and Koger Morti mer practically controlled tho ship of state. Mortimer's nrroganco mado him unpopular, however, nnd lu 1330 he was sent to tho tower ond later executed nt Tyburn. About tho sumo tlmo Kdward concluded a treaty with Scotland In which ho ngrced to ac knowledge tho Independence ot that country In consideration of n payment to Kngland of $100,000 annually. Tho trenty was so un popular that two years later ho secretly aided Ilallol to reach tho Scotch throno. Tho following year, when Ilallol was de posed, ho Invaded Scotland, defeated 'the Scots at Halldan hill, nnnexed nil Scotland south of tho Forth and mado Ilallol titular king of tho remaining portion. Kdward now rested In peace for a few years, but In 133C again turned his attention to tho Scotch and ravaged and destroyed tho country ns far as Aberdeen. In 1333 ho Invuded France, but returned without accomplish ing any results. In 1310 ho defeated tho French fleet off Sluys, and again Invaded their country, laying slego to Tour nal. Money difficulties compollrd him to rulsa tho Blege, howover, and nfter conclud ing a nine months' truco with tho French king ho returned to Kngland to devote Borne attention to tho exchequer. Again, In 1342, with his finances In a littlo bettor Bliupe, ho crossed tho channel, but tho pope Inter ceded to prevont tho threatened conflict and Kdward mado his third return to Kngland empty-haiulod from France. Ho did not rest easy until 1346, though, when ho com moner! nnotber diversion against the pence and dignity of his royal neighbor, und this tlmo accomplished something, for ho won tho battlo of Crccy ond captured Calais. Two years later ho established a truco with France. Tho samo year tho black death al most depopulated Kngland nnd innde the abolishment of fccrfdom possible. In 1353 another Invasion of France was mado, which terminated with tho treaty of Ilretlgny, In which Kdward relinquished his claims to the French throno. Tho balance of his reign Is only interesting because of tho deeds of his son, Kdward, tho Dlack Prince. Desplto his frequent Invasions of Franco and his notable victories nt Crecy and Calais, tho French king had steadily encroached on his conti nental dominions and Edward's power had about run Its course. Ho died In 1377. Ed ward accomplished littlo during his reign, and Is scarcely worthy cf ho pralso that lias been bestowed upon him. Whatever ad ditional liberties ho accorded tho people was duo entirely to his pressing money dllllcul tles. Ho began his campaigns with much pomp and ceicmony, but ho seldom had any detlnito aim Irt them, and his victories wero Isolutod nffolrs. productlvo of but littlo good. What glory theio Is in his reign be longs rather to tho peoplo than to tho king. 1'MKlitliiK fur Siiulln, Tho fourth Kdward had apparently hu( littlo chance of reaching tho throno of Kngland when ho was born, In 1411, but In 1460 his fathor. tho duko of York, was mndo regent by nn net of Parliament, because of tho Incapacity of Henry IV, and declared heir to tho throno In event no allowed the king to finish his rolgn unmolested. A child had Just been born to Queen Margaret, how ever, nnd this act of Parliament did not plcaso hor. She accordingly mnrched against the duke of York and defeated and killed him at Warohnm. Kdward was in Wales at the tlmo, but on hearing of tho death of his fathor ho nt once mirched against the queen and defented her n't Mor timer's Pass In 1161. Tho queen rallied her forces and succeeded In defeating IM. ward at St, Albans, Edward managed to Join forces with tho earl of Warwick, how over, and defented tho queen at tho battlo of Towton. Margaret fled to France, but mado two demonstrations against Kdward in 1462, and Henry seconded her efforts by nnother invasion In 1404. all of which wel unsuccessful, however, In 1401 Kdward married Elizabeth, daughter of Lord Rivers, and thin so ungercd Warwick, who had planned n marriage of the king to the sister of Louis XI of France, that ho began to plot agnlnst Kdward, but so well did ho conceal his hand that his treachery was not discovered until 1 169. Warwick was de feated at Stamford nnd fled to Franco, where ho Joined forces with Queen Margaret, In voded Kngland, defeated Edward nnd placed Henry on tho throne. Edwnrd managed to escape to the continent, but returned later under pretenso that ho had relinquished nil claims to tho throno anil merely wished to scttlo Ills estates. Ho rallied his followers about him, howover, defeated tho forces-of Warwick at New Dariiot and again secured tho crown. His reign continued until his death In 1483. Edward's great personal beauty made him a favorite with tho peo plo, but ho was more distinguished for cun ning nnd Intrigue than nnythlng olso, Ho had no real ability nnd hH relgu was marked by many actB of cruelty. His de clining years wero marked by great self indulgence. Edward V wns the boy who was murdered with his brother In tho Tower of London In 14S3 by his uncle, tho duko of Glouces ter, nftcrward IMchnrd III. Tho prince wns but 13 yenrs old at tho tlmo ho wns so cruelly killed, and his story Is the property of tho hearth In almost every English-speaking home. Tho last Edward previous to tho present monarch of England lived but sixteen years, from 1537 to 1553. Ho wns king for but a few years, nnd tho government was admin istered entirely by tho duko of Somerset nnd Inter by tho earl of Warwick. Edward VI would hardly havo mado a good king. Ho was dovold of any kingly traits of character, lacked force and decision, nnd wns too much of n recluso to hnvo over become Interested in affairs of stato. Ho was an excellent scholar, and, though ho died nt such an early age, was something of n writer. Tho fire of his precocity was probably mado all the brighter by tho disease with which ho was afflicted con sumption. Thus it will bo seen thnt England has not much to bo proud of In tho reigns of most of tho preceding Edwards, nnd It Is to b hoped that the present king will brenk tho long list of failures thoy mndo at govern ing properly and well. i'iia'itm: or tiiu yoiwhstkhs.
