A Cnl For United Action

Against the further spread ana TOT
the determination of this divorce evil
the Catholic church is already up In
arms Against it the Presbyterian
church, with It's general assembly COM
mittee working in unison with the SIS
ter churches, is struggling night ana
day. Against it only few weeks ago
all the Rhode Island ministers banded
themselves together to give religious
combat. Thus as the public leaders or
many denominations are fighting thls
undermining and would be destroyer
of the home it is not inappropriate for
me to speak a few words in reference
to those legal and domestic causes
which might hereafter make easy OIL
vorce" an impossibility.
First, nothing can be accomplished In
material way unless there is national
legislation or at least concerted action
among the different state legislatures
upon this subject. There must be all
over the land harmonious and united
legal action against the divorce evil.
It should be made impossible for a
man to get a divorce In one state
which he could not obtain on the same
ground in any one Of the 5000 divorce
courts of the United States. All those
courts ought to be in agreement as to
what causes justify and what do not
Justify the dissolution of a marriage.
We recognize the necessity of the
criminal courts of the United States
working in harmony. Why should we
not recognize the necessity of concert
ed action by divorce courts? Some
years ago in Chicago a man killed his
wife and burned her body In the val
Of a sausage factory. Supposing after
that crime he could have stepped across
the state line and in Indiana detied the
LEGAL authorities of Illinois. What
would have been the result? Suppos'
ing that notable murderer could have
walked a free man in Philadelphia aft
or he had poisoned his child wife IN
New York city. Why, murder and out
lawry would be everywhere in the
United States running rampant To
day your life would not be worth the
value of a pin only as you were able
to protect it with your own arm anc

murder in one state and then run ava!
another state governor will recogniz

to be forcibly returned to the plac
where you committed the crime.
Divorce Laws should BE Uniform.
We recognize the necessity of con
certed action between states on tn

COMMISSIONER WARE RESIGNS.
Head of National Pension Bureau
leaves the Service january I.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Commission-
el of Pensions Ware rendered his res,
ignation to the president and it was
accepted to take effect January l.
When seen last night Commissioner
Ware refused to discuss his resigna.
ton in any way, except to state that
the newspapers had been "resigning"
him for the past two years. For at
least one year, however, 1t has been
definitely known that Mr.. Ware would
retire soon after the fall election and
return to his home in Kansas, to re-
sumo his law practice. 1t is believed
here that Mr.. Wares action was not
due to any suggestion that the sever
ance of his relations with the pension
office would be agreeable to the presi.
dent, On the contrary it has been
no secret that Mr. Ware. soon after
assuming his duties. found the Duties
Of his office distasteful and that this
distaste steadily increased. There is
no intimation as to who his successor
will be.

Presence of mind on the part of his
fellow employees saved Frank Maine
fIom instant death at the new cleo
trio light station on South BloUnt
street at 80 o'clock last night. He
is employed at the station as an as
sistant and while on duty came into
contact with a $500 voltage wire. In
an instant he was thrown to the
floor His fellow employees, seeing
the accident, quickly turned off the
switch and stopped the machinery.
Names heart had stopped beating
and it appeared as though he was
dead. The workmen at the station
worked over him for seven minutes
and were then successful in bringing
him back to life. DR.. c. A, Harper
was called and the injured man taken
to the city hospital. He was doing
nicely at a late hour and hopes are
entertained for his complete recovery.
Maine is young man about %
years of age. His home is in North
Freedom.
Several weeks ago DR.. Harper
spoke to the Doherty club, an organi
zation of the employees of the Madison
Gas & Electric company. He gave
valuable information as to what
should be done in case of an accident
such as the one last night. This had
good effect in restoring Maine to life.
A voltage of $500 is strong enough

miracle that Maine escaped death,

OSHKOSH, Wis, Aug. 81. = The
democratic state convention at 9:15
tonight took a recess until 9 O'Clock
tomorrow without doing practically
any business further than perfecting
permanent organizati ton. James L.
O'Connor, of Milwaukee, was agreed
upon as permanent chairman. This
was a victory for the so-called radi-
calls over the programme mapped out
by the Warden Ryan combination.
The platform committee, of which
former United States Senator William
F. Villas is chairman, spent several
hours in deliberation, but when the
convention was ready fer= the report
the committee had, not finished its Ia
bors. Several sets of resolutions We're
submitted, and these were taken up
plank by plank and discussed. 1t is
known that the platform will indorse
the resolutions adopted by the nation
al convention at ST. Louis. Most of the
time of the committee was taken up in
the discussion of state issues. 1t IS
claimed that the platform will favor

corporations within the state, 1nclud-
ing electric light, gas, telephone and
telegraph, and that passenger rate
of 2 cents per mile on all railroads IN
the state will be favored. The primary
election plank is said to be the only
remaining portion of the platform not
yet agreed upon.
Temporary Chairman Martin L. Lueck
was the recipient OF much applause
throughout the delivery of his speech.
The mention of the names of Judge
Alton B. Parker and William j. Bryan
brought forth prolonged applause.
1t is pretty generally conceded that
former Gov. George w. Peck will be
nominated to head the ticket when the
convention disposes of the platform
tomorrow For the rest of the ticket
several candidates will likely be pro-
posed for each place. Among the cam
didates are the following:
For lieutenant governor, DR.. H. M.

Gov. La Toilette Appoints Temporary
Treasurer and kenpf Starts Row

MADISON. Wis, Aug. 31.-Gov. La
Toilette today appointed Thomas Pur-
tell temporary state treasurer to act
until permanent appointment can be
made. For several years Purtell has
been deputy state treasurer. The ap-
pointment is for the purpose of re-
opening the treasury as soon as the
checking of accounts is finished, which
will be two days. Purtell will give
100000 bond, but the permanent ap-
pointee will be required to give a bond
of 100000, which was the amount of
bond demanded of the deposed treas
urer, John J. Kempf.
The case is now in the supreme
court. Upon the application of Kempf,
through his attorneys, Chief Justice J.
B. Cassoday this evening signed an Or
der requiring Gov. La Toilette, Secre-
tary of State Houser, Attorney Gen
eral Sturdevant and Thomas M. Pur-
tell to show cause next Tuesday why
permission should not be granted Mr..
Kempf to bring suit in the supreme
court to compel them to restore him
to office as treasurer and to perma-
nently restrain them from preventing
him from exercising his duties as such
officer.
