Matrimonial InfeIicitIes.

There is a certain DroDriety in dis
eussing at this season Of the year the
causes of matrimonial infelicity, since.
If spring and summer are the times for
making those matches said TO originate
in heaven, the months Of July and An
gust seem to be the time selected for
the severance Of ties Of this sort which
may seem 10 be planned in the lower
world The tragedy Of the painful earth
lies in the fact that one cannot al
ways tell one sort Of match from the
Dther until painful experiment has dem
onstrated that appearances cannot De
trusted.
A recent article on the position Of
women nowadays. as contrasted with
that which they occupied a hundred
years ago, has ELECTED some correspond
ence evidently intended TO prove that
the law cannot even now give relief to
unhappy wives. This is, Of course. true;
and il is to be doubted whether any
law can be framed which win lit the
requirements OF humanity In this re-
speet. The relations between man and
woman are Of nature 50 complex, so
delicate, and 50 permeated with tTadi-
tions good and baG. that TO a very large
extent each individual couple must set
tie disputes unaided by the law or any
thing else. Marriage is a thing in which

influence. No injustice. no wrong. TO
crime. has been perpetrated in all his
tory but it had its effect upon this re-
lation. No ideal love, no sense of duty,
but has affected men and women other
than those who came directly under It's
influence. When two people enter into
this relation they discover their gin
ship to the rest of the world, and also
discover that the rest Of the world
cannot help them much.

Liquor and Politics.

Mr. Hanna's deliverances on tariffs trusts, PEN
sions subsidies etc, at the Ohio Republican
convention were clear enough, but sub
iect the boss spoke in parallels. Evidently he
knew what he was talking about and so did the
convention, for his remarks were greeted with
great applause. He said: "One word in rSfer-
ence 70 the question which l know is upper
most in the minds OF many, and that question is:
Shall the Republican party in this campaign

TO LIMIT MANUFACTURERS.
A Protest Against the sale of Leaf
Tobacco by Them.

]. w. Yerkes, Commissioner Of Internal
Revenue. received a letter recently from
Walter G. Wilson. Secretary of the Ma
tional Cigar Leaf Tobacco Association of
Philadelphia, in which was enclosed a
resolution from that organization relative
to the sale Of leaf tobacco by manufac-
turers. Mr.. Wilson asserted this practice
is inimicable to the interests of qualified
dealers in leaf tobacco.
In reply Mr.. Yerkes informed Mr.. VII
son that the regulations provide that two
or more kinds of business cannot be car
ried on at a cigar or tobacco factory, and
that the premises cannot be used for stor-
ing and selling and delivering leaf tobacco
or manufactured tobacco or cigars not
produced at the factory.

Judge. nnd crnnd Juries.

A judge in Hudson County, New Jer-
sey, has discharged a grand jury in
huff because it failed to bring in an in
dictment which the judge desired, and
which. it is said, had been prepared un-
der his supervision. The person against
whom the indictment was drawn is the
keeper of a poolroom in Jersey City
Perhaps he deserved Indictment We
do not pretend to know as to that, hut
whether he did or did not, the action of
the judge was a peculiar one-it may
even have been illegal, for the foreman
of the grand jury explicitly stated that
it had not completed it's work.
Be all of these things as they may,
the action of a judge in attempting to
force an indictment raises very grave
question. 1t is identical in principle
with an effort by a judge to force a
trial jury to convict man charged
with crime. An indictment is, as a rule,
a serious disgrace, and besides it is
step toward sending man to prison or
the gallows Grand juries sometimes
go wrong, and judges themselves are
by no means infallible. On whichever
side the preponderance of error may
lie, the fact remains that the law Gre
ates both grand juries and judges, and
that neither has right to invade the
province of the other.
When the people of a State desire to
do so, it is their right and privilege
to abolish grand juries in a lawful way.
but it is not the right of judge vir-
tually to destroy the efficacy OF such
body by trenching upon its privileges
or by endeavoring to influence its action
in any manner.
There are many failures of justice in
criminal cases which are to be de-
plored At the same time, the fact is
undeniable that judges frequently iden-
tify themselves rather more closely with
the prosecution than is consonant with
the aims and purposes of the law. AS
long as we have both judges and juries
the line which separates their respective
duties cannot be too clearly drawn, or
too closely observed.

Four Transports to Make Regular
Trips to Manila.

The War Department has decided to es-

transports Buford and fitzpatrick. which
are now at San Francisco. and the In
gals, now undergoing repairs, and the
Mcclellan, both of which are at New
York, have been assigned to the service.
The Buford and the fitzpatrick will go TO
Manila from San Francisco and return to
New York by way OF the Suez.
The question of establishing this ser
vice has been agitated for some time by
New York merchants. a committee saw

weeks ago in regard to the matter and re-
ceived the assurance that the line would

1t is a little surprising to learn that
another hitch has occurred among the
Powers over the Chinese indemnity The
report is that China has agreed to pay
lump sum of four hundred and fifty NIL
lion taels. while the total of the separa te
demands of the Powers only foots up
four hundred and fifteen million taels.
This would be amusing if it were not a
part of a very serious international mat
ter. 1t looks as If the Ministers had been
doing their figuring in very sIipshod sort
of way. Still, there should be no diff
Guilty in rectifying the mistake. Some of
the Powers seem inclined to increase their
demands go as to absorb the entire sum.
That looks a good deal like the railroad
method of collecting all that the traffic
will bear. a fairer way would seem TO be
for each Power to content itself with the
amount of its legitimate demand.
