TO The Editor
Think the principal reason why young
men do not marry is that the average
young man waits until he commands q
salary large enough to support a wife as
he would like to. which H.. in most cases,
after he ceases to be o young man.
The present wages of men Of average
ability are not large enough TO support a
family consequently the young man hest
tates about marriage while SO young. and
I do not blame him in the least.

Fear Poverty and Large Families.
To he Editor:
There are considerations far more Sc
rious than the sacrifice of mere temporal
enjoyment. the dread of an unsuitable
match, or even an unpleasant mother-in-
law, which may deter r~ight-thinking
young men with small incomes from
marrying.
What q horrible lesson is daily taught
BY the large families Of the poor! When
children are brought into the world
through selhshness and ignorance. and
dragged up amid poverty and vice, 1t IL

find innumerable recruits.
Then there are the temptations 20 which

Too Much Fun as Bachelors.

To N, Editor:
Want of success in business. selfish
ness, lack of means, cost of living, are
all obstacles to matrimony which the in
ducements are not sufficient to counter
balance. There is no comfort or luxury
which marriage offers man that he can
not enjoy ns q bachelor. and the cosmo-
politan life of a city gives him amusement
at minimum cost, and makes everything
ex, ensive in which wives participate:
The thousand outside attractions which
destroy home life and make it tame, irk-
some and commonplace are also obsta-
cles. But m thing only. can give, to
marriage its long-lost prestige, and hat
is the return of old-fashioned love to this
mercenary nineteenth century-the love
that poets sing and heroines depict. that
asks no reward. stops ut no privation,
finds no task too menial-and when the
woman appears. who without thought of
dress or theatre. luxury or style, chooses
her ideal. and willingly goes with him
wheresoever he leads; and the man, keep
ing to her. and to her only, enjoys moth

by the Union Pacific people, and contcm-
plates an association of all the

sound, except the Northern Pacific, and
to run i'm opposition to that company's

and the Union Pacific people hero were
interviewed this ~aftcrnOon, and. while they
were reticent about the matter and de-
clined to give out any deflnate news con-
corning the new deal, enough was learned
to verify the truth of the statement that all
the boats on the sound will soon be united
i'm one association, and that association
will give the Northern Pacific a lively
