Through a Trying Time.
NIiIWaukee IournaIl


The people Of the United States are
becoming used TO counting private for
tunes in millions. And the people are
apt to forget sometimes that these big
fortunes are not their own
We measure up the wealth OF our
milli0naiTes and call 80 evidence of our
prosperity. But the truth is it is evil
dence of general poverty.
All these millions come cut of some
body And that somebody is the pub
lic.e
True, many immense fortunes are
made through the creation of new
wealth, and many more are made
through the creation Of fictitious vail
ues. But, after all, the dividends on
the big capitalization come out of the
people,
in the house Of representatives Rep
reseutative Granger of Rhode Island
has recently made some statements in
reference to the increase in the cost
OF living and the relative increase in
wages. He bases his figures on the re-
ports of Dun and Bradstreet from 1897
90 the present time.
he declares that in the past year
alone. from March 1903, 90 March, 1884,
the cost ofIiviug increased 8 per cent
and Of this increase 11a per cent of It
was added during the month of Feb
{ =
To is astonishing, Mr.. Granger said.
how even the most ordinary articles of
food have gone mp in price within the
period under discussion. Cabbages, for
instance, have gone up zoe per cent;
-four. from 81 TO So a barrel; bread, pO-
tatOes and meats of au sorts have be
come deaTer and, hence, harder TO get.
But there has been no corresponding
increase ia wages. On the contrary,
there have been reductions and shut
downs Of mills.
So the burden Of increase falls hea-
West on the man who receives a salary.
II is he who pays for the brilliant
I hued bubbles that the employers blow.
Big industrial combines control not
only the prices of their products, but
the price OF their labor, and they con-
troll both TO their own advantage.

nous private fortunes that have been
built up I'm this country I'm the last few
wears and to claim them for our coun-
try. But We would be q far more com
Portable more prosperous and more
progressive people if this wealth were
more equally distributed.
There IS 100 question that the past
year has been an exceedingly trying
one for those whose incomes are small
and either stationary and diminishing.
The satisfaction and pride we have
in contemplating the vast fortunes OF
our miliionaires affords poor recon-
pcusc.

are startling figures. but it would
have been fairer il the proportion had
also been given for the whole country.
Very few OF the southern states have
any such proportion Of failures in mar
riage, and the percentage for the
whole United States is less than half
the proportion ia Maine, for instance.
In South Caroline The only plea re-
cognized as ground for divorce is a
statutory onense, and the other states
OF the south are almost as rigid IN
their regard for the permsnence Of the
marriage relation The Catholic
church, as is wen known, is very slow
10 celebrate the marriage ceremony for
divorced persons, and then only under
e exceptional circumstances and after
careful veridcauon Of the facts.
Unquestionably, too. many marriages
are made hastily and without the con-
sideration of the future shat would be
imposed by a knowledge that the cere-
mOny constituted an irrevOCa bic
bond. Unquestionably, too, it would
be better for the morality of the nation
if a uniform marriage law, with rigid
restrictions as to cause for divorce and
proof of facts alleged were enacted
and placed under federal jurisdiction.
The laUty Of present divorce laws
lies quite as much i'm the way they are
administered as in the broad grounds
allowed as a basis Tor action. IF the
courts we're more careful i'm their
scrutiny of evidence and more severe
i'm their construction of causes FOR ac-
ton. there would be less reason for
complaint as to the laws under which
they act.
The conference plea also sets forth
the evils arising from the willingness
OF ministers in one communion to per-
form ceremonies Of remarriage for di-
vorced people who cannot secure rites
from their own communion. Possibly
a refusal 30 act in such cases might
have some effect, but it could not be
dc6nitive so long as the civil marriage
ceremony alone is sufficient to legalize
the marriage Whether ministers con-
scented 10 the ceremony of not. officers
or the law would always be found
ready TO omciate. and the deterrent ef-
feet of a religious ban would at the
best be ineffective.
At the foundation of the whole prob
lem lies the need of education from
childhood which shall instI a high
view OF the saCredness of marriage.
An the laws that could be enacted
must fail unless public sentiment is
brought to realization Of the danger
to the individual and The nation which
threatens. from "a low view of the ma
trimOnial obligation.

7 OVERS OF BASEBALL throughout
i the country have been talking
much recently about the wonderful
feat Of Cyrus Young, a pitcher for the
Boston American league team, In retir-
ing the Philadelphia team without a
hit OF a run. la the nine innings that
constituted she game not Phlladel-
phia balsman reached first base. This
means that Young did not hit a bats
man nor did he give a base on balls.
Every man who knows anything about
baseball VIII appreciate the fact that
no more wonderful performance has
ever been given. The record is one that
may. at some date i'm the distant fu-
ture. be equaled, but mauifestly it cam
not be exceeded
Young's pitching was simply baseball
perfection. And the remarkable fea-
ture. TO us, is the fact that Young is an
old man. as baseball pitchers go For
more than fifteen years he has bcen
pitching in the so-called big leagues.
All that time he has been a steady, con-
sistent player. During those fifteen
years he has seen other baseball stars

lie has seen players ia ali departments
OF the game play brilliantly Tor a few
seasons and then drop back into the OBJ

The average period OF usefulness for
a pitcher Iu a major league does not ex-

cess is not hard TO ind, Always he has
habits, always WatChul Of the talent
that has enabled him to become what
he is-Jhe greatest veteran Of his day
we do not unfortunately, often look
TO the baseball field for examples Of

Comparatively few players take ths
care of themselves that they should.
comparatively few lead plain. simple
lives. And thar is why so many drop
out Of the game while they are stil

- younger players, and, indeed. for all
