ing big pieces of coral, they both began
pelting the object of their wrath. For ten
or fifteen minutes the fight was right
lively one, interspersed with many mar
row escapes on their part from the mon.
ster's big tail, but at the end of that period
the coral rock proved too much for him,
and he gave up the ghost.
On being measured the monster proved
to be 49, feet long, and would have
weighed probably not less than l 00pounds.
When he was opened they found one big
shoe, cigar case, mouth organ, a large
number of bones that plainly showed that
his fame as man-eating variety was not a
misnomer.
Strange to say,when the fragments of the

will remain on dry land"

UNIFORM MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE
LAWS

The New York Commission to consider
the question of uniformity of marriage
and divorce laws has invited the Governors
OF all the States to appoint similar Com
missions. For some three or four years the
subject has been discussed with new and
developing interest. Indeed, some pro-
gress toward uniformity has been made,
but not anything near what must be at
tanned If there is to be established any
practical reform upon this subject That
1t Is feasible the RECORD UNION has held
from the outset, but not upon the line of
amendment to the Federal Constitution,
On the contrary, whatever is achieved will
be by legislative agreemen: between the
several States The reasons for this belief
we have SO frequently set forth that it is
unnecessary to recapitulate them now.
Besides, it will be for the Commissioners,
when IN council, to determine what shall
be the direction and character of methods.
Very recently the Department of Labor
at Washington has fled voluminous re-
port upon the subject, and the American
Bar Association has appointed commit
tee of distinguished lawyers to report
upon the question. The reform that is to
be, therefore, starts out in its preliminaries
with high Endorsement and official COM
mendation.
The Chicago Journal holds that we will
not be likely to secure the action of the
States in establishing these uniform laws;
it thinks that an amendment to the Fed
eral Constitution is the proper beginning,
out this is the expression of the minor
number of journals. Many are frankly
non-committal, and others prefer to leave
the whole matter of remedy to the Council
of Commissioners, and devote journalistic
energy to securing the appointments of
the Commissioners. Upon this subject the
Boston Journal has these sensible remarks:
Messrs. Henry R. Beekman, Henry I. Snyder,
and Irving Browne comprise the New York
commission. They have been diligently ct
work for some months gathering statistics of
the operation of the varying divorce laws of the
country. Iney nave not given mucn attention
to the moral phases of the problem, but have
reviewed it rather from the legal standpoint,
estimating the statutes of each State by
their results. Their aim is now to arouse pub
lie interest in the need of new and uniform
legislation, and they do not underval1e the
formidable nature of their task. Here, in New
England and the Middle States, public senti-
ment is generally ripe for the reforms desired,
but in the South and West unfortunately, it is
not so. And it is in just these regions-in the
West particularly-that the necessity for a
thorough overhauling of divorce laws is most
urgent. OF the proposition to secure a uniform
divorce law for the entire country through a
conference in which all the States shall be rep
resented, supplemented by concurrent action
by the Legislatures of each State, 1t can be said
that II is probably as feasible an endeayor to
secure such q Law from Congress

Of the patents, amount almost to a mo-
nopoly of the telephone business. We
shall probably continue for considerable
time to pay rental for the telephone, and
probably as heavy rental as at the present.
But this cannot continue for great many
years. An invention that has become SO
essential a part of the business of the
world cannot forever remain monopoly
in the hands of the few. The present ex-
actions are excessive. and if the companies
are wise they will prolong their advantage
by such reduction in rates as will tend to
satisfy the people for long time with
their monopolization of the telephone
business. But such corporations are not
always wise. The disposition of capital
is to get all it can from present advantage.
Now and then far-seeing directories act
the wiser part and consider the future as
an essential element in the conduct of the
present. If the telephone monopolists
are discreet they will bring their charges
down to such figure that vastly more
people can avail themselves of the instru-
ment, and thus secure stronger hold
upon the telephone business for the exist
ing corporations.

No ONE can have noted the dispatches
from day to day and the reports of pro-
ceedings in Congress and cut among 6nan-
cial seers and not have been impressed
with the fact there is no intention on the
part of the Republican leaders to have a
free silver coinage bill passed. They have
not expressed their fears in words, exactly,
but they have manifested the conviction
that the party cannot become just now re-
sponsible for measure that will bear with
it such a weighty problem, and the solu-
ton of which the financial prophets have
not yet worked out.

THE duration of the telephone patents
approaches. completion. The Bell re-
eeiyer patent expires with the close Of the
year, and the Edison transmitter in July
next. There are patents on some i'm
portant parts OF the telephone that have
some wears to run, but it would seem that
the expiration of the main patents should
cheaper this invaluable agency for the
transaction of business. We have grave
doubts, however, about that. The exist
ing telephone corporations have their
plants in all considerable towns, and enjoy
franchises the equals of which Others can
secure only under conditions that call for
an enormous output of capital. Thus the
disposition of all cities is to prohibit the
erection of overhead telephone wires. The
underground conduits are vastly more
costly than poles and supports for the
wires. 1t will be seen, therefore, that the
present companies, with their very elabo-
rate systems fully established, have an adj
vantage that will; even after the expiring

How THESE partisan brethren do dwell
together in unity. Here is the Albany
On. Y. Journal, strong Republican ad-
vocate, saying: Better that the elections
bill should be permitted to die where it
lies than that the free silver devil should
triumph. The Republican party went
just as far in fayoring the Republicans of
the Granger and Rocky Mountain States
of the West, when it passed the silver law
of last July as the safety and credit of our
finances permitted" Right on the heels
of this emphatic expression, we have the
Denver Republican, also a leader in the
party, saying: Congress should make
haste to pass bill for the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver. That measure
will not furnish as much additional money
as we need, but it will be a long step in
the right direction" What a wonderful
difference environment makes in the
opinion of some men; at least in their ex-
pressions.

African Territory.

the area secured by France is much the
largest, so far as value is concerned Eng
land has no rival in Africa. There are still
2,5oo,000 square miles in possession of the
native rulers.

The evidence of the oppression of the
Jews in Russia is such that it cannot be
ignored. 1t is positively proved that the
race is subjected to cruelties that in this
country would set all humane people into
ferment of indignation. On their part
the Russians say it is necessary to COW the
Jews, because they are SO much smarter"
class people that they always have them
at disadvantage of finances, wits and in

vantage in its competition with Ignorance

RURAL DECLINE,

Professor Currier discusses the decline
of rural New England, in the Popular
Science Monthly for January. In most
things he thinks in line with the closest
and most impartial observers. The SUBJ
ject was taken up by the RECORD UNION
some months ago, when there was less
light upon it. Professor Currier says:
Not only is the area of cultivated land de-
creasing but the landowners are sensibly
narrowing their tillage; The land is growing
poorer, partly from natural causes and partly
nom less careful working and the marked de-
crease in the amount of live stock kept upon it.
The fact is, farming does not pay, especially if
help must be hired to do large part of the
work. The farmer finds himself the victim of
all the evils of protective tariff without its
supposed benefits. The promised home market
he has found to his cost, II not his ruin, is de-
fusion and snare. If the manufacturing cen
tiers in his vicinity have raised the price OF some
Of his products they have advanced the cost of
labor in greater degree, and drawn to them
selves the best brain and muscle from the
farms. He is beng heavily taxed for the bene-
fit of the whole list OF these assistant industries
that rob him of his working force, while the
competition, intensified by labor saving ma
chimes suited to the large prairie farms OF the
West and stimulated by lavish gifts OF land to
duces the prices of his products in his natural
home market. He buys Western flour and
Western corn for his own consumption at a
cheaper rate than he can produce them with
hired labor, and by reason of the long winter is
unable to compete with the West or South in
cattle raising for the Eastern market at his
door. Confning his attention TO the few crops
that from their bulk or perishsble nature, are
not subject to the destructive competition of the
West, the ordinary farmer merely lives and
pays current The his less s. shTewd
and sooner or later will be sold out of house and
home.
We give Professor Curriers' views with
out interruption to dispute any of them.
He is entitled to hearing. In the main
he is sound in his statements, and will be
antagonized only by the extreme partisan
who is welded to what is termed the
policy of the Mckinley bill, which leaves
the farmer unprotected.
