Only One Cause for Diverce.

The sacred bonds of marriage are
now so easily thrown off that the sanct :
ity of the most vital relationship in
life is lost. Let the laws of the subject
of divorce be stringent. Those in this
state are none too severe. I think that
only the crime of adultry is sufficient
cause for the total disruption of the
home and marriage ties. The growth
of the divorce evil is threatening the
in ntegrity and happiness of our homes,
and through them is threatening th e
state and the morality of the people.
In the early, sturdy days of Rome
divorces were almost unknown; in the
last days of the empire, in the days of
Rome's decadence, when all of her old
strength and virtue were gone and she
was tottering in her place as ruler of
the world, divorce was very easy and
very prevalent.
One of the most important consid err
ations in the questions is the children j..
They cling to both father and mother;
their hearts are rent assunder when
their parents separate. tits unnatural
and the children suffer with keenness
which their elders can hardly appreci-
ate. 1t casts a blight upon their young
lives which is never forgotten and
which never wholly disappears. A man
and woman who have agreed to live
together in a married state owe to
themselves, their children and society,
the great duty of forbearance and
patience and reasonableness in their
relationship with one another. If
this duty be fulfilled there will be little
desire for divorce, and the difference
in the lives of those who fail in the
duty and those who do not fail will be
the difference between happiness and

Four silver Republicans, the entire
Democratic side and the PopulIst sena-
tors voted against taking up the tariff
bill with the four exceptions men
toned. every Republican present voted
for the consideration OF the bill, which
shows which of the two great parties in
the senate is most willing to give TO the
treasury the relief that is needed.
When the people elected Republican

the Republican vote in the senate. they
voted that legislation for the relief OF
the financial crisis should be on Repub-

Fas,. speal. Leuder Than world.

The dyspeptic and demagogic vapor-
ings Of the Register on the subject of
the comparative records OF the Demo-
cratic and Republican administrations
OF city AFFAIRS were continued yester-
day. They consisted OF mere asseF-
tons. none Of which were true. Facts
and figures are the best and most con-
vIncing arguments. The Intelligencer
yesterday published a statement that
showed clearly the facts as they exist.
The intelligent people OF Wheeling
will not be deceived by the reiteration
OF an old falsehood about the circuni-
stances OF the emergency tax They
know Just how that tax was brought
about. 1t was necessary to pay honest
obligations of the city left unpaid by a
Democratic administration. The peo-
pie were offered their choice between a
bond issue for this purpose or an in
crease Of the levy. They chose the In
creased levy by refusing to vote for the
bonds.
The Republican administration has,
in business-like why. made good its
promise to the people with regard TO the
inherited unpaid obligations, and, in
addition, and In the face OF unlocked for
emergencies. such as the small pox
situation and a wrecked, fire engine
kept the public expenditures last year
nearly $500 below those of the Demo-
cratic administration the year previous.
This year the Republicans will reduce
the public debt more than $4,000.
These are the facts which give the
Register the shakes and cause 1t to
troth at the mouth in an unsuccessful
endeavor to dIscredIt the Republican
administration. The prospect that the
administration. having provided for
Democratic deficiencies. and brought
the city out OF a financial hole. will be
able TO reduce the levy. only adds to the
Registers disturbed state OF mind, 1t
is long way ahead to begin the city
campaign, but the Republican cause
will not suffer on that account.
