THAT SKATING PoND Our attention has
been called, by some of the residents of Sec
ond Street, TO the fact that a pond of con-
siderable dimensions has lately been formed
near the NJ. E. Church in that street by an
unsuccessful attempt having been made to
get rid of mud puddle thereabouts. The
pond as it exists, makes a good skating
place for the urchins, when it is frozen over,
but it is suggested that it ought to be re-
moved to some other locality, as it is a de-
cided nuisance and an impediment to travel.
Some of the city fathers ought to take a
walk in the direction indicated, take obser.
vations, and report to the Council at its next
meeting.

OUGHT TO FIX IT.-Near the Brewery,
just Outside of the City limits, there exists a
mud hole, which for depth and permanency
beats anything We know of in that line AL
most every day some luckless teamster has
the misfortune to get stuck in the hole
aforesaid, and not unfrequently has to doub~
lie team to get out. The road supervisor of
that district should see to it that this section
Of the road be mended.

SNow.-At last accounts from Olympia,
snow had fallen to the depth of few inch
es, more or less. At Portland they have
had "skift" or two. At Lewiston, there
has been few of the same sort. In Grand

but round here, just for grandeur, we sup
pose, there has been very little OF it.

LAWS OF DIVORCE.
EDITOR JoURNAL-The following
resolutions, passed at the late meeting
Of the St. Cloud District Ministerial
Association, held at your place, are of
some importance, and it was voted that
1 furnish them to you for publication ::
Resolued, That we, the ministers of
the St. Cloud Ministerial Association,
believe that there is but one cause
wherein man may have lawful d.
vorce from his wife that is for the
cause of adultery.
Whereas, The laws of our State
are allowing divorces for five other caus-
es, these five we believe are contrary to
the teachings Of the Scriptures. We
recommend that the lawmakers Of our
State strive to bring back the law for
divorce to a scriptural ground.

THIRTY DAYS.

So far as people in general know, there
Is no business which should REQUIRE the
present Legislature to remain in session
longer than thirty days. The less the
statutes are tinkered with the better ;
the estray law could be amended in a
few days; there would be time enough
tor tenoing-in and fcncing.out speeches;
and, transaoting all necessary business,
the Legislature could adjourn at the
end Of the first thirty days. This
would be considerable item of economy,
and in the present condition of affairs
the tax payers Of tho State call upon
the Members to forcgo by at least half
the full term allowed by law. Will
the Legislature do this, or will it drag
out the session to tho last hour Of the
sixtieth day?
