THE DIVORCE EVIL.

Progressive polygamy," is the
term which has very aptly been ap-
piled to the modern method of mar
ried people securing divorces and
Immediately marrying again. The
divorce evil, which is responsible for
this progressive polygamy is just now
receiving universal consideration
from the press and public speakers
and in a recent issue of the Tucson
Citizen, very able article appeared
on the subject from the pen of its
gifted editor O'Brien Moore, in which
he says that "the sacredness of wife
hood also involves the sacTedness of
motherhood. Not always is 1t so,
perhaps, but that is the way in
tended. Three has been so much talk
recently about divorce laws that those
who look upon the domestic relations
with that degree of thoughtfulness
which should never be absent in con-
sidering subjects of this kind, must
wonder what humanity is coming to.
How does it come that men and
women meet and marry and then after
years of life together, are content with
separation? Each goes his or her own
way and from pique or other cause,
marries again. 1t is not so intended.
There is something about it which is
repellant.
1t seems that no man of sensibility
and no woman who appreciates her
honor can think of marriage after di
vorce unless some terrible mistake was
made in the first instance. Our CIVIL
ization shows that it is defective. 1t
either shows that or it proves a worse
thing-that we are yet incapable of
civilization. The latter hypothesis
must necessarily rest on the principle
that we still possess animal instincts
which we are not strong enough to
hold in subsection. Aud this may be
true in some respects, and it is pity
In every community we have the spec.
tacle of husbands and wives who have
the husbands and wives of other per-
sons. They have children-many of
them-and these children must feel
that they are worse than orphaned.
or coruse, it is delicate subject,
and there is no intention to wound
any ones feelings. The thought
merely is that the marriage relation
should be considered as something
more than a mere convenience. Its
aims should be high and holy. The
wife is the mother, and no man wortl y
of the name, and no woman worthy of
the name, should forget what it all
means. Mistakes are made-and are
made by good people in many in
stances-but the consequences of mis-
mating should be carefully considered
before and not after the die has been
cast. The divorce evil is an APPALLING
one, but it cannot be escaped. 1t can,
however, be modified and it seems
that the discussion now going on
throughout the country will be bene-
fetal.

Robert Fulton had the correct idea
about the way to get thing done, in
GLIDING even the inspection of steam
boats. AS long ago as 1907 he wrote
to Capt. Brink, who commanded the
first steamboat, the "Clermont" cit
is not sufficient to tell men to do a
thing, but stand over them and make

with the Gen. Slocum, there would
