Certainly those who have been right

TuE CHURCH AND DIVORCE.

The Episcopal church has always
been more liberal than most in the rules
OF life outside Of church observances,
but 1t threatens to take a step back
ward. 1t Is proposed that at the next
convention. to be held in October. the
canon on marriage shall be altered SO
as TO read in part: mo minister Of this
church shall solemnize the marriage OF
either party to a divorce during the life
time of the other party"
This Is a serious mistake. The Eur
pose originally was 10 encourage moral
ity and discourage immortality by refus-
Ing 10 permit any person guilty Of the
worst violation Of the married relation
10 benefit by the legal consequences os
his or her own wrongdoing. That pur-
pose is not served by the canon, and
greater wrong Is done by refusing 10
sanction the marriage Of divorced ser
son. whatever the cause may have been
ana without regard 10 the innocence OF
the wronged member OF the connubIal
state. There is no Justification for this
attitude either in Scripture or in
morals. 1t Is also unwise as a matter
" policy. The bsst policy Is to aid In
making possibly happy marriages take
the place Of unhappy alliances.
Such cauouicai law as thar proposed
will be absolutely nugatory. Conscience
rsvoits at the unnatural prohibition.
and no man or woman will sacri.ica

hope OF happiness in this life cut OF re-

Justification in Holy Writ or IN human

WHY ARE THEY DETAINED.

No satisfactory reason has been given
hy any responsible authority why the
Washington troops have not been sent
to the front The dispatch from San
Francisco By Hon. John S. Mcmillan
gives indIspatabie evidence Of their es-
fcieacy. discipline and readiness, and
presents strongly and pcintedly cogent
reasons Why they should be allowed 10
engage in active service.
why have the Washington troops
been thus ignored and sighted: VIVA.
covert Influence Is a. work 10 deprive
them OF the opportunity 10 which they
are Justly entitled for rendering their
country gallant ana creditabIe service?
What excuse can be given for requiring
them 90 be mere reluctant lookers-on
when they were among the first In the
field. and among the best and most thor
oughiy drilled troopse Is the suspicion
justified that petty military jealousy Is
responsible for distinct and untustla-
able discrimination. because John II.
Whoiiey. lieutenant. has been made a
colonel. and must be deprived OF his
chance to outrank some petty captain
or major. or Northumberland with q
political pull? Or is Il possible that the
powers In Washington permit them
selves 10 think that troops from Popu-
list state have less title to their favor
able regard than volunteers from a Re-
publican state?
IL ia not sufficient answer 10 these
questions TO say that Ii In q soldiers
duty To go where he Is sent. CT TO stay
where he Is kept. OF course 10 is, and
they viii do their duty rigidly, consci-
entiously, fully. II Is also the duty Of
the administration TO employ all the re-
sources at It's command in the most
economical and most efficacious posi-
giving hard service to troops best or
ganized. best equipped and best Off
cered. and keeping the political briga-
diers In the rear. II regiment is
needed for coast defense duty, one can
speedily be raised for that purpose. No
necessity exists for pocketing Col.
Wholley at Vancouver and Lieut.. Col.
Fife al San Francisco.
The Washington troops should be per-
nitted To go TO Manila, and the Post
Intelligencer calls upon all commercial
organizations. newspapers and every In
fuence. public and private. for prompt,
vigorous and concerted action. Public
sentiment may be adequately expressed
TO the war department through the
Washington delegation.

To the Editor: ! wish to express my adj
miration of your course during the Brad
ley trial with regard 10 the publication OF
the evidence necessary to give the story
and the rejection OF such parts or 1t as
were unfit for publication l have heard
your course commended by a large num-
Der OF people. and I feel sure that ii is
approved by the great bulk OF our citi-
zenS.
Those who indorse your action are not
confined to my political or church creed.
They are men and women who have chill
dren that read the daily papers. / hope
the day is not far distant when the other
papers of this city will emulate your ex-
ample.
l remember talking once with Capt.
Barker while he had command Of the bat
tieship Oregon. He remarked that the
greatest fault he had to find with the
American press was the fact that impure
and sensational matter was admitted to
It's columns. From this fault the Post
Intellgencer Is noticeably free.
