Trae Love aud Marriage.

Why It is that love and marriage are
''goIne out Of fashion" cannot be ex-
planned.
The operations Of the marriage license
bureau In San Francisco, a city noted for
its continued growth In population,
shows that marriage is becoming more and
more unpopular-an astonishing out
nevertheless true state Of affairs
In 1898, the number Of marriage Il
canses issued was 1895; In 1894, II
was but 8.1i2 This decline has con
tinued for the past two years, month by
month, showing smaller returns. As no
other cause Is apparent, hard times Is
The excuse to verify Buckles theory that
the marriage rate huctuates with the
price Of wheat.
Nor is this shrlnkage in matrimonial
business alone apparent in Calliornia-lt
is evident throughout the East. In the
large cities Il is shown that modern i'm
provements, especially in the dreotion
Of club life, enable bachelors to enjoy
the comforts and luxuries Of existence
without the burden and responsibility Of
a wife, who may become III IL not ex
travagant. Then again, the throwing
open Of avenues OF en- ployment for
women, is so developing thelr inde
psndence and powers to make a livelihood
easy, that they show repugnanee tC
marriage
But on the other hard. the develop

attractive than ever and men more
capable Of appreciAting them. And
again. young men are more fitted Z
command the true love Of good womel
than in generations past, when coars
forms OF vice were not SO rigidly illegs
and unpopular as now.
And that true love springs up an

The liability OF the railroad companies

perform the expected service. has been
dangled good deal before the eyes Of
the strikers and their friends. Does any
man suppose, that II a body Of 5000
skilled workmen strike over night the
next day the railroads will lose their
charters for not running cars, or that

upon the freedom or the lives Of men who
try To take the places vacated, Inter

are unable to perform their duties The
courts, we Imagine, would not adopt any
such ierky and vicious rule for adjusting
the public business If the skilled en-
ployes of company give two weeks
notice OF their intention to withdraw
from its service, and then there Is failure
to replace them, that will be o fact Of
consequence; but a strike comes without
warning, and, however far It may be
within the inalienable liberty OF the
strikers, It contains the element OF un-
fairness. The company must have ample
time for filling its vacant places, or fair

Of the landing Of troops in boats.
