MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.
Baltimore SUM-


The Uniform Law Commission, which
was In session In Cleveland, O.. had be-
fore 1t the draft OF divorce bill sub
mitted by committee. This bill is mod
eled after the divorce law of the District
or Columbia 1t was urged that, as this
Dill was enacted by body representing
every State in the Urion, 1t would be
more acceptable to the various States
than any other plan which could be sug-
Ecsted. or course. It Is an almost hone
less task to get people of different States,
having such radical differences of views
regarding marriage, to agree upon any
KIND OF law for Its regulation or dissolu-
tlon. There are all sorts of views to be
| met from South Carolina, where mar
| riage Is treated rs so solemn acl obllga-
| ton that 1t cannot he annulled eXcept iby
death, and upon whose statue Books
there arc no divorce laws to the Da-
kotas and Oklahoma, whore marriage Is
IN erect merely n temporary arrange
mcnt between two persons, to be ter
minated at the Will or either of them.
IT these latter States and Territories;
confined the operation of their divorce
mills TO their own citizens, the rest of
the country would not have so great
cause for complaint. But as II is.
persons from other States flock to the
Tree divorce courts. ana after spending
H. snort time Mt hotel get n decree of
divorce, perhaps against some innocent
husband or wife who has had no notice
OF the proceeding.
1'he person seeking the divorce is
usually accompanied by the person who
occasions the divorce and a new mar
rage takes place before the ink on the
scandalous decree is dry Then confu-
sion worse COMPOUNDED results. In some
States the new marriage as well as the
divorce are null and void, children
born in what are supposed to be we'd
lock are illcgitmate, blgamy has been
committed and the descent of property
Is confused. In other cases all is recog
niZcd MS legal
Ut is the object OF this Uniform Law
Commission TO do away with all this
scandal and confusion and to have this
Dill enacted in each State of the Union
under which 4 divorce obtained In one
Will he legal in all. The commission. II
would seem, and very wisely, does not
undertake To 30 into or in anywise
change existing laws governing causes
OF divorce. The bill Is directed SOLELY to
procedure in court. One excellent fea
ture Is the imposition Of n heavy fine
and imprisonment upon any person who
publishes 4 notice with intent to procure
or aid In procuring a divorce The court
may compel the conveyance of prODerty
held by either party after n divorce.
when 1t appears that 1t belongs to the
other Testimony Is to be heard in
open court and a residence of two years
in n State Is requisite to obtaining n di-
vorce THE bill has much to commend
1t, but its general adoption will be a
difficult fask, especially In those States
which are competing for the vile trade.
