WHY 10 MARmAon A FAlLuanr

Tho Rev. Howard Mac Queary gave
na u sermon last evening ~ u Gro ded
house, IA tho Episcopal church, on tho
aubjvct "Why Marriage 10 Failure 3
The title would indicate that the Rev
gentleman thinkb marriage 10 failure
hut no made haste, IN opening his OBJ
aervatlOna, 10 deny this, Ile also REQ
ognized the fact that people would be
likely 10 infer that no ID not competent
~ treat on marriage IN an Investment
never having Invested In the lottery,
In order 10 break the force OF theae
suppOaItl0ne, no said Prof Proctor had
written about tho moon IN very
learned manner without ever having
been there. Now this sounds logical,
but II 10 not. How DO we know whrin
or Prof Proctor has told US any truths,
ana what doea Prof, Proctor know
about the moon, compared with the man
IN the moon, provided there " q man In
the mOOnY About matrlmony
we have plenty OF living instances, (u
fact the streets and woods ara full OF
them) who have TILED II, aud DE-, Mac,
Queary haa not, All that the learn, d
Doctor knows about matrlmOny is
from hearsay, and II 10 q rule OF evil
deuce 40 old as blackstone and Coke,
(three centuries ago) that no hearaay
evidence 10 admissible IN any Court.
Certainly there 10 no court whore court
ing N more essential 10 tho prellmlnA
fieB than the Court OF MatrlmOny.
AS We understand II, the Rev. Mac
Queary has not taken any OF the ad'
yanced, or lizard lessons, IN eOurtlng,
which aro as necessary 10 an insight
into the Court OF MatrlmOny, 40 peach
blossoms are 10 peaches,
The sermon however was u good one,
and we'll worth hearing. The Rev.
gentleman did not assume that mar.
rlag6 iB u failure, but gave pome OF the
reasons why " 10 30, In 80 many In
stances,
He gave M some atarillng statlstic0,
bearing on this vital question. He claim
cd that marriages were constantly dc.
creasing In thiB country and divorces In
creaalng, which 10 q most deplorable
fact for the contemplation OF the NOR,
alist. Right herei In Stark county there
10, on an average, one divorce 10 six
marriages. We can hardly believe that
lhe proportion 10 so large, aud yet the
court records show an astounding list
OF couples trying tO break the matri'
mOnial yoke,
Fewer hasty marriages, better moral
training and more atriDgent divorce
laws were among the remedies suggest
Cd for tho suppression OF the greatest
evil Of our social system by the Rev.
MacQueary.

THAT COURT HoUsB SEWER.

The Massillon Independent Is mainly
devoted 10 the Court House sewer.
Yesterday the paper contained nearly
three columns Of reading matter on the
subject. II seems the purpose Of that
sheet to make the Court House sewer
a political issue In the coming cam.
paign. The Navarro Independent, edi
ted by one Of Major McKinley's post
masters, and the Louisville Herald,
edited by another Of Major McKinley's
postmasters, are both taking lively In
terest in the discussion. There seems
a determination TO make raid on our
Board Of County Commissioners, and
excite prejudice against the city Of
Canton. In view Of all this we suggest
that II II is possible to do so, that full
and fair legal investigation be had Of
the whole matter, and that II the coun.
ty has paid too much for the sewer priv
ileges Of the Court House that the mat
tor be re.adjusted. Canton pays
her full share Of whatever the county
agrees TO pay, and no taxpayer OF Can
ton wants anything more than equity.
Since the agitation Of this question
we have consulted with number OF
our leading taxpayers OF both political
parties and all seem 10 agree that $l0.
600 for the use Of our sewerage system
for all time is certainly not too high.
AS the Democratic party has q major
ity OF the Board Of County Commits
sioners and also Of the city council, the
party officials are willing and anxious
for full and fair investigation, and II |
any wrong has been done to have that
wrong righted.
We do not believe that any wrong
has been done; but that great prejudice
has been excited against the city by the

TIE readers Of the Cln.Com'G Gazette,
Cleveland Leader and other Republi'
can journals have been waiting anx-
lously for at least thirty days to read
the fearful expose that John IL, Thomas
Of Springfield, was going to make on
the manner In which Col. Cal. Brice
purchased his election to the Senate.
Mr.. Thomas was down with Ia grippe
at the tine these organs were doing
their loudest snortiDg on the question,
and now he Is well, II appears that Mr.
Thomas never threatened TO make any
expose, He says he has no charges to
make against Cal. Brice, aud he knows
of no reason why he should charge that
Brice purchased his election. And now
these same newspaper organs are
charging that Brice has purchased Mr.,
Thomas silence. In other words, they
