AS TO DIVORCE.
Ogden Man Gives His Ideas On This
Subject.

To the Editor of The Herald:
Although it is not seriously aDDre-
hended by the writer that the publica-
ton of this article will be followed by
the immediate Inauguration of a change
in the system which it assails or that
it will materially influence or affect the
present status of individual opinion. it
may suggest to the diSintereSted OBJ
server the eminent deSirabiiity of in
Producing something different. and af-
ford rational entertainment for others.
AS perfection is not the lot of NOR
tails, no one who has ventured forth on
the storm-tossed sea of matrimony is
exempt from the liability of at some
time during their matrimonial career
of becoming entangled in the DerDlex-
tiles of a divorce proceeding; therefore.
discussion of such { subject, however
inartistically presented. should be re-
plete with the most fascinating and
bristling interest.
Your correspondent does not occupy
a position of one speaking from exper-
fence, for to the present time he has
been exceedingly fortunate in having
been, as it were, providentially and al
most miracuously preserved from the
bewildering and electrifying power of
woman; he therefore stands forth in
the wholesome and sanctifying atmos-
pnere of the single state, Invested of
prejudice and DrepoSSession.
Under a law where there are no re-
strictions on the freedom of divorce
marriage must be regarded in the ma
ture of a civil contract. and not a mere
status as it is construed and defined
by modern jurists. AS a status it occu-
pies different relation TO the govern
ment than it otherwise would if
clothed in the legal habiliments of a
civil transaction or contract. It is true.
however, that the mere agreement to
marry is a civil contract partaking of
the legal incidents of a contractual re-
lation, for the breach of which an ac-
ton of damages is maintainable. but
the relationship subsequent upon the
contamination of the marriage agree
ment is purely a status, surrounded by
special rules and regulations. not ter
minable at the will of the parties. as

The fifth annual session of the State
Teachers association at ogden the
past week, while not largely attended,
was one of the most interesting ses-
sions yet held. A gratifying feature of
the meeting was the deep interest man
ifested and which continued I'D to the
close on the afternoon of Friday. 1t is
to be deprecated that the attendance
upon these annual gatherings is not
larger. The association is what the
teachers of the state make it. and if the
teaching fraternity expect that the pa
irons of schools shall be interested in
their work, they must themselves man.

EN- SENATOR QUAY.

Chairs were upset, tables were brushed
aside and hats were smashed by the
crowd Senator Quay, with broad
smile on his face, responded pleasant
ly to the greetings and congratula-
tions of those who crowded around.
The first group of men who left the
court room sent up shout which was
taken up and repeated by the crowds
gathered just outside the 'dead-line"
drawn by the watchmen, beyond
which only possessors of tickets were
allowed to pass. When the ex-senator
emerged from the door of the building
a group of enthusiasts rushed forward
and attempted to hoist him on their
shoulders, but he waived them back,
saying: sob, no: oh, no. I'm too old
a man for that" 1t is understood
that Mr.. Quay will at once join his
family in Washington and will prob
ably go away for a long rest.
Before the verdict was announced,
Mr. Quay, who was sitting in the court
room, said he was feeling very well,
the result, he thought, of his giving
up smoking, as he was forced to while
in the court room. He said he believed
he would give up smoking altogether.
At the announcement of the verdict
he flushed slightly and then became
as cool as ever. His friends surround
ed the jurors, patted them on the
back and told them what heroes they
were.
Mr.. Quay's only comment on the
verdict was: "Well, l expected it,"
After the crowd left the court no ON
District Attorney Rothermel was
questioned regarding the remaining
indictments. He said there were
three of them still pending but he
would not say what lis course will be
regarding them.
Political friends of Mr.. Qnay are
urging him to bring prosecutions
against those enemies who they claim
are behind the prosecution, but the
ex-senator will not indicate what h is
course will be.
