The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1894-03-29

Virginia long ago. Pennsylvania Is no longer
the keystone Of the American Union, for the
arch has been extended from the Atlantic
coast to the Pacific ocean, and the center Of
the arch IS
Moved Westward.
"A new keystone is to be built in that
arch. New York will cease to be the EN-
pire State and new Empire State will
grow up IN a Northern latitude, where the
lands are rich and where the people who
cultivates them are all free and all equal.
That state which shall be truest to the great
fundamental principles of the government
that state which shall be most faithful and
most vigorous in developing and .perfecting
society on those principlcs-will be ct once
the new Dominion State, the new keystone
State, the new Empire. State"
The question for which the great New
York statesman spoke 50 eloqIsntly has
pleaded and prayed it might be; settled in
consequence of the DEGREES Of the great
campaign in which he spoke; settled by the
great iberator for whom. he spoke, the i'm
mortal Lincoln: settled in eternal justice,
for freedom and mankind Citizenship Is
no longer unequal and every man is free
beneath the flag. The differences existing
then are no longer present to impede the
progress and unity of the republic, or to
stand between us in the realization of it's
highest interests: Now all sections end all
states bow at the shrine of freedom. All
have a common and glorious citizenship:
progress of the Union The liberty for
which Seward spoke has been scared and
the Union saved stronger and better than
ever. The virtue which is to advance tie
nation now free to its highest destiny and
glory must reside in the people. NOT Of the
Northwest alone, but in the people Of every
part OF our common country. The North
west can be relied upon n5w and in the
future, as In the past, to ':0ntribn:e 10 the
onward march of the best government on
the face Of the earth.

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.

In IS years there have been in France
%, S05 ,0G0 marriaa es.
Austria has SO divorces to 1000 mar
riages; Hungary, but G.
In England to LEGO 900 of population
there are nire divorces every year.
The marriage of first cousins is for
hidden in II states and territories.
The most common cause for divorce
in Italy is cruelty from the husband.
In 90 years the ratio of divorces to
marriages has increased from 100 to $50
per cent in every country of Europe.
In 17sG n law was passed in Massa-
chusctts forbidding the marriage of white
people with Indians, mulattoes OF negroes.
According to the statistics of MIR. Car
roll D. Wright, there is one divorce to
every 470 marriages in the United States.
During the last 40 years rs, 750 divorces
have been granted in France on the
ground of cruelty; 4 ZOO for other causes.
There is apparently someratio between
divorce and suicide, as in most countries
II correspondence is observed between
the numbers of the two.
A Connecticut man got a divorce be-
cause 1.-THE defendant would not get up
in the morning, nor call this plaintiff,
nor do anything she was told"
Darwin says that $50 per 10000 mar
riages among the English nobility are
between blood relatives, and over 10 per
cent of such marriages are childless.
An Indiana divorce was some years
ago granted because 1.-THE defendant pull
ed all the covering off of this plaintiffs
bed, and she likewise ran a knitting nee
die four inches into his arm."-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.

Homo Rules setback.

Events furnish complete proof Of the
assertion that home rule will be merged
in the larger campaign and will not
again come TO the front in parliament
for some time. The Irish leaders find it
necessary, for prudential reasons, to
preserve an Independent attitude and re-
frain from an open alliance with Lord
Rosebery. but they fully recognize the
practical good sense Of his policy.
They regret, some of them, the prime
minister's indiscreet honesty in declar-
ing the necessity of convincing England
of the justice of Ireland's demands be-
fore home rule is possible. but his words
are almost identical with previous utter
ances of Gladstone himself and of such
patriotic lrishmen as T. p. O'Connor.-
