Nor ENcoURAGING.-Two men, one in
Minnesota, the other in Indiana, came to
grief last week through placing their trust
and investing their money in Utah divorces.
Dr. John l.. Arlington got tired of his wife
and employed Chicago attorney to obtain
for him decree of divorce from probate
court of Utah. Neither the doctor nor his
wife had been in Utah, but that made no
difference to the Mormon probate court. The
divorce was granted, and Mrs. Arlington,
after sixteen years of welded life, unexpect-
eddy found herself without husband. The
doctor married again, He was arrested, on
complaint of his own daughter, for bigamy,
and the jury found him guilty. The case in
Indiana was similar. A man named Hood
got Utah divorce, through Chicago law
yer, and married again His real wife pros
ecuted him for bgamy. He set up the Nor
mon decree as a defense, but was convicted.
While opinions may differ as to the justice
of outside interference with the domestic
! affairs of the Mormons, there can be no
doubt that morality and propriety alike de-
mand that the Mormons shall not interfere
with the marital affairs of people outside OF
| Utah. The assumption of petty territorial
courts to divorce couples who have not been
within thousand miles of them is ridicu
lous and against public policy.

AMERICAN Tools IN RUssIA.-The United
States Consul at Odessa, Russia in report
to the state department, writes as follows
implements of agriculture might come in
great quantities to this country if our manu-
facturers would make an effort in that di.
rection, and adapt their implements for the
use of the peasantry of this country. The
principal thing to be done is to make them
exceedingly firm and strong. American
reapers and mowers are now the favorites
above all others, and have large sale In
other machinery the English manufacturers
have the field, and have seen no article OF
their machinery that excels the American
unless expensveness may be deemed ex
cellence. / am persuaded that there is a
fine field here for the American threshine
machine. During the year American works
have supplied a railroad here with fifty.five
engines. They were remarkable in strength
power and workmanship, and ! am told that
they draw train through the heavy SHOWS
easily, whereas with the engines before in
use the snow often rendered the roads i'm
passable. Only one American vessel en-
tered at Odessa during the year 1876 Their,
were two at Tanganrog."
