THE DIVORCE QUESTION.

One Of the great questions before the
general convention OF the Protestant
Episcopal church, now In session I'm
triennal conclave IN Boston, IS that
relating 10 divorce and remarrlage. The
matter has been considered by a special
committee since the convention IN San
Francisco three years ago

every eight marriages II there Is any
doubt as to the claim that the home Is

This SO an the more evident rom the
fact that the conditions in Canada are

FOR THE PUBLIC HEALTH,

II IL gratifying TO learn that the adj
vice OF the Deseret News given several
weeks ago. in relation to convention
Of the health officers Of the different
counties In this State, has been follow
ed extensively Not only have many
gentlemen engaged IN the good work Of
watching over and protecting the public
health attended the convention In thus
city, and aided by their presence and
experience In forwarding the purpose
of the gathering, but In a number of
instances, the country commissioners
MS we advised have exercised their law
full powers in providing, out Of county
funds, for the legitimate expenses Of
the health officers incurred by their al
tendance al the convention. Where
this has not been done, the good exam
ple set by other county officers should
be followed by the rest Indeed there
should be liberal appropriations for tho
preservation Of the public health, the
prevention OF the spread Of contaglon,
and the stamping out Of disease In eve
ny county Of Utah.
The health officers, at the close
Of their assembly, organized for
future cooperative action and adopted
the title Of "The Associated Health
Authorities Of Utah" Much credit Is
due TO Dr. II. B. Beatty for his services
IN this direction. He has been active
and interested IN working up this con-
vention, and we believe that the assoc
citation that has been formed VIII re-
suit IN great good to the State, The
papers and discussions that formed the
chief features Of the meetings were OF
character that must lead to inyesuga-
tions and the adoption OF measures and
methods beneficial TO the public, and we
hope the interest thus aroused win not
