Claims to Have Married in Mexico


A dispatch from Colorado Springs,
Colo, under date of August II says:
Marguerite jackson began pro-
ceedlngs for separate maintenance
against her husband, Z. e. Jackson,
in FL Paso county court to-day, only
to learn that she had sued a dead man.
They were married In Mexico, Mo-,
sixteen months ago. jackson had re-
turned to Missouri, where his death
occurred recently"
The jackson mentioned In the above
notice is not known In this city and q
search Of the marriage license record
for the spring Of 1902 fails TO locate
the issuance Of a license to a party OF
that name. 1t is possible that a H.
ceuse had been secured at some other
point and the ceremony OF marriage
performed In this city.

ad. That we are not prepared

garded. That we are not prepared
to do.
Mr. Gary is suspicious OF our
motives and thinks we may be
looking for flaws rather than ear
nestly seeking truth. That is the
common apprehension of the doc
trinarie. He wants too much
taken on faith. He starts out
on the proposition that his aims are
good, consequently his theory must
not be questioned. We wish to
say in this connection. that as So
cialism is yet but theory, it is per-
fectly legitimate to search out and
indicate its weak places. Its adj
vocates propose it as a practical
Bile thing inmeasurlbly better than
the present status. We do not and
cannot consistently question its ST.
periority, for it proposes to establish
perfect justice and supreme happi"
ness; but we 'may legitimately in
quire into the probabilities of its
ever becoming practicable until
mankind is advanced to that state
of virtue which requires neither
force nor restraint. Then will come
the reign of scientific anarchy
wherein every man is so benevolent
tn at he does everything he pleases
without ever infringing on any
other mans right of doing what he
pleases. The real ideal state of
man is the state of perfect good
ness where the supreme longing of
the human heart is to do good, and
evil has become so hateful that the
sight of it is pain beyond endur-
ance We are approaching that
state, but not under very heavy
steam pressure. 1t is said that the
ions of electricity thrown off by
radium are so small that in forty
millions of years an ounce of rad
ium, glowing all the time, will lose
only two grains of its substance.
Human nature..is throwing off sell
fishness at about the same rate, and
it is only six or seven thousand
years since it went into business.

They actually believe, most OF the"'
that a reduction of hours Will re-

consequently operate to the injury
rather than the benefit OF WORK

their faith was always erroneous.
The probabilities are that they are

where will this thing end? We can
see no more occasion for anxiety
over the final solution of the labor

the nebular problem. Everything
that can be proposed Of the future
is mere theory which facts may
completely explode. The question
is, are the conditions right, at the

hours of toll. If so, the right
thing should be done in the right
time, and let the future take care OF
the future. If mankind never took
