Marriage Insurance.

The multiplied marriage associa
tlons have aroused the whole country
and are the subject of discussion
everywhere. That which so inter
ests the public mind is worthy O
notice in a public journal, and W,
deem it our duty to the readers o.
the CITIZEN, as well as these associ
ations, to deal with the subject
plainly.
The object of these associations
mutual aids commendable. Il
has generally been attained, and the
associations have doubtless done
much good. They agree conditonally
to.pay each member certain sum OF
money upon marriage, and many a
happy couple have been started in
life with this amount as their CHIEF
dependence With q continued in
crease of membership the properly
managed associations may, it seems,
still do good. But, notWithstand-
ing this view, they may upon the
other hand be made the means not
only of financial but of domestic in
jury to many. Whether it is true
or not, we are unprepared to say,
but it is rumored and generally be-
lieVed that, since spectators have
gone into them so heavily, rash
marriages have been the result. In
stances OF low women and bad men
having been induced to marry mere
ly for speculation are reported. We
are satisfied that no such base acts
have been perpetrated in this com
munity, but if they have ever oc-
Cured anywhere it is stigma to the
associations and will, if permitted
to continue, justly degrade them in
the opinion of every lover of chasti-
ty in society and of all who have
any regard for the most sacred re
lationship of mankind. The chief
object we have in writing this arti
Gle is to warn the associations here
against such occurrences. 1t is GER
tainly their duty and as certainly to
their interest that they use every
possible effort to prevent all per
sons from joining whose policies are
taken out upon parties whose union
would be disgrace to society and
which is brought about by mere
speculation. No institution should
countenance or encourage anything
with tendency so evil as attaches
to such marriages, ,and.any institution
that does this cannot survive among
enlightened and intelligent people.
The incorporstors of these associa-
tions are the managers, and they
have a perfect right to reject appli-
cants. They are not only the trus-
tees of the money paid in by the
but they are the electors
Of the members, and it behooves
them to receive none who are so
debased as to encourage such marri
ages as are referred to above
Fraud may sometimes be practiced
upon them, but caution will often
prevent it. ~ ~
It is fact that the associations
IN Pulaski as well as at other points
we're organized by some of our best
citizens who are considered by all
who know them as incapable of per-
any wrong in the commu-
nifty. Every dollar paid to them
for that purpose will be turned over
to the beneiciaries. whoever they
nay be, and they would not willing
y injure any man or encourage evil
IN any form, and what we have said
IS not intended to reflect either up
IN them or their assoc iations, but
s meant to point out what oughs to
De avoided for the good of society.

The boilers ought to address
their standard bearer about as fol-
lows: You accepted our banner
when no one else would. You
could triumph with il if any man
could. You have fought a good
hght. You have labored heroically
to turn democrats from the error
of their way. They will not hear.
We feel responsible TO you for your
present situation. We are afraid
that it is somewhat embarrassing.
We therefore beg respectfully to
suggest that you do not longer sac
rifice your own best earthly inter
est for their temporal and eter-
nal good. Leave them intheir sins;
Let time teach them their folly;
shake the dust OF this we&risome
race off your tired feet as tssti-
mony against them, and let them,
like the herd of swine, rash head
loAg into the sea Of repentance. Be
cause they are going TO be swal-
lowed up in victory in spite OF all
YOU can do.

NAIL ROUTES,

CHICAGO, July Sit is stated that me-
gotiations are well under way between the
postoff1ce department and the Wabash
road by which it is proposed to carry
through plan of fast mail between the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts by different
route from that originally intended. This
is necessitated by the refusal of che Chi
cago & Omaha lines to enter into the ar
rangement. The agent of the T. o. D.
has been over the Wabash line and reports
that to the Mississippi river it is as good
as Chicago lines but west of that point
somewhat new for fast time. The pro-
posed arrangement is to connect with the
fast train of L. S. road at Toledo and make
the run over the Wabash to Council Bluffs
by way of Hannibal only thirty miles
longer than the Chicago route, and it is
believed that the schedule time intended
for the latter can be made over it. 1t is
not known whether if this arrangement is
concluded fast mail on the L. S. will be
extended from Toledo to Chicago. Chi
cago and Omaha roads are becoming
alarmed about the through passenger route
carrying those who would otherwise pass
through Chicago and over these roads.

The following report shows the condi-

has left the stock thin in flesh in many To-

ported from disease resembling pink eye.
In the reports for hogs few correspon-
dents report heavy losses by cholera.
There is general complaint of losses in
pigs. 541 townships estimate the number
on hand at 712, 264. In some localities the
thumps and quinzy have proved fatal.
There will be shortage in the crop of
sheep, they are generally healthy, howev-

spring lambs to be 80. 1869.

RAILROAD BUSINESS.

CHICAGO, July 5.-The RaiIeody Age,
| giving a summary~of railroad building for
the first six months of the year, says totals
are astonishing, while only one-half the
year is gone, and that included several
spring and winter months, when track con-
struction, especially in Northern States.
is generally not even commenced. And
while there has been great cry about our
doing railroad building, and predictions
made of impending financial disaster, we
find that track has been laid on at least
179 lines in states and territories, adding
milage of main track aggregating no less
than 1890 miles. or in round numbers 1000
miles. 1t must be remembered that these
figures show only the main track, and do
not include sidings and second, third and
fourth tracks, of which hundreds of miles
have been laid. How extensive has been
the work of the present season in compari-
son with its predecessors, may be seen by
the fact that while it shows nearly 5000
miles of new road, the aggregate reported
for the same period last year is only little

cd OF no previous year has it equalled even
that amount in all the western and sonth
ern states and territories. Railway build
ing is being actually pushed.
An examination of the map will show,
except in a few cases where parallel or
competing lines are being built, there is
ample room and need for all these lines,
and that many more even must be bnilt
before the necessities of the country are
supplied. With the present outlook we
see no danger. of excessive railway build
ing this year. The total railway milage in
the United States is now more than .1O7,-
600 miles.

The bankruptcy bill was then made a
special order for the first Wednesday in
December.
The senate bill creating new territory
was then taken up; % to 81, party vote;
Davis with the republicans.
Hale offered an amendment respecting
the alleged reputation of Yankton county
bonds, affecting the new territory. Brief
discussion ensued, in which Harrison and
Vest participated, the latter urging that
southern Dakota would. certainly be ad-
mitted to the Union, despite the legisla-
tion complained of. If the Pembina bill
should now pass he would never vote to
admit the territory now stained with repu-
diation.
Mcmillan reported the river and harbor
bill, and will call It up tomorrow.
After executive session the senate ad-
journed.
