There are many strange things happen
ing in everyday life, and sometimes one
wonders where will the end be. One
came to the editor few days ago which
was simply startling. There has been a
courtship going on for several years. and
the wise ones have set date for the mat
rimonial procession to form only to be dis
appointed, never dreaming that there
might be legal impeachment to such ac-
ton. Polygamy has died in this state and
in Utah as well. The cause is plain. The
would-be groom has been married. and
has child about ID years old. The court
decreed that the man should assume the
responsibility which was properly and
lawfully his own For thirteen long years
this man has tried to free himself from this
matrimonial alliance, but has been unsuc-
cessful. When man cannot secure di-
voTce in Illinois, where on earth win he
90 to have his sins of commission legal
lied? Yet the young lady awaits the ac-
ton of the court in order tina. she may le-
gally become the wife of man who is
just as guilty and just as liable as the other
party in the transaction. When young
ladies cease to make heroes and minis
ters of the men who have betrayed mem
bers of their sex, then will there be a
change for the better.
