HISTORY OF I.ANDIGRABBING.

There is much comment upon Lord
Roseberry's recent statement that IN the
last twelve years 100000 square miles
have been added TO the British Empire
The statement is treated as confession
OF land grabbing" in various quarters.
This leads the London Times TO publish
an interesting record of the acquisitions
Of various nations IN the last twelve
years. with the object of proving that
considering her opportunities, England
has not been the greatest sinner. Tax
inS the beginning Of 1884 as the start
ing point of the inquiry, il is found that
the scramble for territory was initiated
BY Germany in that year Ii was In
tba. year that 3 congress OF the powers
held ia Berlin attempted to regulate the
rush and TO define the duties of the
rival srahbers toward each other and
toward the natives

view. In 1874 Frances foreign empire

GROVER NOT A WARRIOR.

1t is not likely that Grover Cleveland
would care to leave Office with the leg
acy of a war to the country. If con-
fiict with Spain is imminent, it will be
President Cleveland's purpose to avoid
if. 1t is announced that should Spain
fail in the next two weeks to put down
the rebellion, that is, before December
Z, when our congress meets, President
Cleveland will advise some friendly &C
ton to the insurgents-a recognition OF
their belligerency. II, however, Wey-
Ter, with his 100000 mcn against 1000
should put the rebels completely TO rout
and so end the war, it is predicted that
Cleveland will continue his friendly pol
icy to Spain Or if between the two the
same wild. endless chase of the iRsurg-
ents is kept up, it is to be supposed that
Cleveland will continue to keep his pol
icy as it is-in favor Of Spain.
So on that account, If on no other,
there is little possibility Of war before
March next. unless it is actually
forced on us by some other nation With
a horrible deficit, Cleveland would go to
any lengths before turning an empty
treasury over to Mckinley, and war
besides.
In addition to this. Cleveland has
never been friendly to the Cuban III
surgents. A Republican pesident would
have seen that they were recognized
long ago. Cleveland early adopted the
policy of letting the Cubans win their
own war and congratulating them
merely when they had finished. The
Republican party's patent temper is to
give the Cubans aid.
1t is not at all likely that the Spanish
authorities and ministers and controll-
ers in the governmental policies OF
Spain do understand this situation.
They would not press war under the
circumstances but would rather strive
to convince their people that the present
administration of the United States was
perfectly friendly to Spain.
For Spain to force President Cieve-
land into war after his long amity
towards them. would be base ingrati-
fude. and we would have 10 whip Spain
ten degrees harder because Of it

MARRYING IN ENGLAND.

]. II. Schooling, an English statisti-
clan, recently gathered some queer facts
in regard to marriages among English
people. In this exhibit are many tables
and diagrams showing the proportion OF
marriages To population at certain ages,
what effect marriage had on longevity,
etc The compiler Of these statistics
quotes Plato that the citizen should be
the offspring of women aged twenty to
forty and of men aged twenty to
iifty-fve, and also quotes DR.. Farr of
tie general registrars Office in England
who saws the English pairing is in close
accordance with Piato's suggestion
Mr.. Schooling finds that at least 40
per cent of all the women in England
between the ages of - and "A are spin
STEERS. and he finds that OF every 100
women between - and "a only - are
spinsters. OF all the age groups pre-
sented BY this statistician he finds the
highest percentage of wives between 80
and "A, and OF husbands between the
ages of Is and "a. Among loo men
between the ages OF 80 and 81 he finds
but 81 single. III married and li-3
~idowered. while among females of the
same age he finds IL single 5I-3 mar
ried and 81 widowed. Among those
ia age upward OF Is there were among
zoe Balcs Is . wbiowered and ga o.
the loo females Of the same age class
were widowed. Mr.. Schooling finds
as a result OF his elaborate investigation
that ,kc mortality Is among bachei0rs
and spins;ers higher than among mar
rse,I persons OF the same ages
Anather interesting fact brought OUT
by these studies Is that while a; the be-
ginning OF the century IN England there
were lo9 fer,sies to 100 males. this ez-
cess in females gradually diminished
until 1851. when the proportion was
lOa - females 10 100 males From thz;

The Heraid's article, which was pub
lished in full in uesday mornings Eagle
assumes that Oklahoma is still suffer-
ing from that law. The Herald's article
also scores Oklahoma severely, but
makes the climax of its story forgery
and fraud. Forgery and fraud are not
peculiar to the west They have been
known in New York City, even
The chief harm of the Oklahoma d.
vorce matter was legal complication
which has made every divorce liable to
attack and notification. The first law
in the territorial organic act made two
years residence necessary for applica-
ton for decree of divorce. Then came
an act Of the legislature giving the su-
preme and district courts power 10
grant divorce to a bona fide resident OF
ninety days; the probate courts were
also given power TO grant DEGREES or
divorce. These probate courts, rightly
or wrongfully, took the ninety day priv
ilege upon themselves and granted di-
vorces. The supreme court decided the
nipety-day probate court DEGREES inval-
id. The second territorial legislature
tried to repeal the probate court ninety
day privilege, and then arose the ques-
ton whether this act which congress
had ratified as it does territorial iegisla-
ton, could be by territorial legislature
repealed. The supreme court has de-
cided that it could. and later that it
could not. The matter has got into a
most abomipa bic tangle with this harm
worked-that no one who secured a dl-
rorce in Oklahoma since its Organiza-
ton knows whether his or her divorce
is any good whatsoever.
This is a dreadful state Of affairs, but
it is the result Of bad constructions and
want of legislative and judicial care.
Oklahoma is no more notorious in the
divorce matter than the city Of Chicago.
The question of a uniform system of
marriage and divorce laws is another
matter. The times demand it. 1t must
come sooner or later. The CONNECT OF
state law which makes child legiti-
mate in one place and illegitimate in
another is wrong, radically, basically
wrong, and must be changed.
Uniformity can be reached through a
constitutional amendment. The work OF
securing constitutional amendment is
enormous An agitation must be set
going which will reach everybody in
the Union. 1t will not be a one-sided
discussion by any means, and may
bring into the arena ecclesiastical sub
jectS.
But the question should be settled. 1t
IS a matter with which the country Is
more vitality concerned than with any
other question.
