PRINCESS ADVOCATES PLURAL
MARRIAGE-MORM WOMEN
APPLAUD HER,
Very Sensational Book Advocating
PoIygamy Is Now Being Hurried
Through the Press.

PARIS, Sept. "A sensational book
advocating polygamy for the well-to-
do in the interest of womankind is be-
ing hurried through the press. It's au-
thor is the kaiser's sprightly sister, the
hereditary Princess Charlotte of Mem
ingen.
1T would, therefore, be we'll to grant
the right to marry a second wife after
the old one has ceased to be attractive
under certain restrictions says the
princess, because such a law, besides
eradicating (more or less) the divorce
habit is desirable for the protection
81 the wife that has become obsolete
is intended to protect the rights of all
the children. and would be an aid to
morality.
There is no use denying the fact
that man between his fortiath and
fifteth year undergoes a thorough
change of taste and habits. Every
day he sees a dozen woman whom he
prefers to his own wife, with whom ne
would like to begin life anew, to his
own and the worlds profit.
But it cannot be done without rob-
bling the woman he once loved of her
home, position and friends, sometimes.
SO he leads double life. That means
disgrace for the woman of his second
choice and her children: likewise days
of anguish, storm and stress for the
first wife. In cases of this kind we adj
vocate legalized plurality of wives on
the ground of decency and common
sense"
The princess says that only rich or
we'll do men, able to take care of
two wives and their children, shall be
allowed to take a second one. while
women might be privileged to guard
against the introduction of a second
wife during their lifetime by insert
ing a clause to that effect in their
marriage contract"

After visiting with his brothers for a
short time the professor made a trip
to Mount Hood, where he spent some
time in climbing the mountain and
camping around its base.
Last Friday the traveller returned
to Gresham. where he found letter
from a friend requesting him to go to
the home of his brother, John Brugger
at Woodland. Professor Brugger, was
reluctant about making the trip for
some reason. but at last decided to do
so, and left on Saturday for Wood

been heard of him.

1t is the supposition of the friends
of the professor that he was thrown

however. that the rider was thrown
and perhaps injured, and will be found
at some point along the road. where he

PLURAL WIFE APPLAUDS
Responsive Chord Struck In Salt Lake
City by Princess.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Sept. 2.-Prin-
cess Charlotte of Meiningen mas struck
a responsive chord in the hearts of
many MOrmOns in urging that a man
under certain conditions, be allowed
to take more than one wife. DR.. Mar
tina Hughes Cannon, plural wife of
Angus NJ. Cannon, both prominent in
Mormondom, in an interview, thus in
dorses the princess position:
According to the sociological and
physiological condition of the world
today, the Princess Charlotte is right.
l maintain that in the majority of COM
munities at the present time there are
more women capable and willing to
enter married relations and take upon
themselves the responsibilities and
burdens than there are men.
Some argue that womanhood is
greater than motherhood and that HUI
manity is greater than either. Just
earth was one of the first edicts of the
Almighty to his earthly children, and
tampering with it brings degradation
and death instead of life and progress;
so, after certain age, men should be
permitted by law to take second
wife, as says Princess Charlotte"
