Divorce Suits Filed

Those who are tired of married life con-
tinue to resort TO tho courts to settle their
troubles. Three suits for divorce were fled
yesterday 10 the Office of the district clerk.
Eliza Jane Garner, complaining of A. j.
Garner, her husband, prays fora divorce on
the ground Of i'll treatment. Taey we're
married in Dado county, Missouri, in 1874 :,
and in lS49 they moved to this state. They
lived together until about eight months ago
thirty six years In all-and during that time
ten children re born to them. She and
her husband failed to get along In their every
day life, and whenever he was Sc Inclined he
would curse her and apply to hJr the most
approbius epthets. He was IT jealous dis
position and was continuall' rowing up to
her other men, and circulN L. such slsnderous
reports, rea,cting upon l. virtue, that she
found 1t impossible to live longer with him,
wherefore she prays tire court for divorce,
and division Of the community property.
Mrs. e. A. V. Cox rues the day that she
was married to John |. Cox. which was the
30ih of December, 1877. The fruit of their
marriage is daughter, now two years and
three months old. She alleges in her petition
that no treated her in a cruel manner be.
sides accusing her of being untrue to him.
He called her all sorts Of lewd names, and on
ono occasion he came into the house out of
the mud and rain, and, taking a seat beside
her, he pulled off his muddy shoes, which he
threw into her lap, when she mildly remon
strated with him, whereupon he asw into u
violent passion, and bsit her nearly to death
with whip or quirt. Fearing that he would
kill her, she fled from the house and went
to her fathers, where she has since. resided.
This was about eight months ago. She prays
that the custody of the child be awarded her
on the granting of the divorce.
John Irby asks the court to grant him a
divorce on the ground that j. A. Irby, his
wife, whom he welded in August, 1880, was
untrue to her marriage vows. She left home
one night saying that she was going to pay
a neighbor friend visit, but instead of that
she mo: man on the road. and together they
slrayed off from the road itself, and the
path Of vrtu; wherefore he prays that be
be granted divorce.

A JUST TRIBUTE.

We feel 1t to be due to the conspicuous
ability and frmness with which Speaker
Parks has presided over the deliberations
of the Assembly during the past session,
TO recognize his successful performance of
his trying and onerous duties as publicly
as possible. It is acknowledged even by
those members who have been most fire.
aiuently opposed to him that his decisions
have been marked at once by thorough
knowledge Of parliamentary law, and by
rigid determination to act dispassionately
and equitably. Though during the fierce
contests which have repeatedly occurred
on the floor of that chamber there have
been the strongest incentives at times to
challenge his rulings, inquiry has always
shown that he was right, and he has as
sumed no positions which were capable of
being subverted. Considering the nature
of the main struggle in the Assembly, and
on, this is the highest praise that could be
bestowed upon a presiding officer 1t is
IN fact almost universally recognized that
MIR. Parks has been one of the ablest and
fairest Speakers that ever welded the
gavel in the Assembly, and there are not
many men who could have kept that body
in order as he did during the heated con-
troversies which were of daily occurrence.

GUS material and somewhat dearer inno-
cent one, the selection of the former ap.
pears to be a matter of course.
1t may be thought that the growing in
difference to human life which seems to be
implied by the verdicts of modern juries
in murder cases has possibly some connec-
ton with the callousness which must in
evitably grow out of continued attacks
upon the lives of the public in business
way. The man who murders his customers
without conjunction can hardly be ex-
pected to regard an occasional violent
homicide with much horror. Killing is
familiar to him, and whether it is done in
the course of business or otherwise can
make very little difference. A civilized
nation, however, cannot put up with this
state of things. 1t must suppress adultera-
ton with stern hand, as it has been found
necessary to do in Europe, and we are glad
to see that the Committee on Epidemic
Diseases has recommended the appointment
of Commission to take steps for bringing
legislation to bear upon this enormous and
constantly increasing evil
