RIFLE TO INCORPORATE
All Opposition WIthdrdwR--COmmis-
SiOnerS Appointed by Court

Rifle will incorporate at last after
certainty of success. Judge j. W.
Dollison representing the petitioners,
presented the petition to County Judge
A. l.. Beardsley last Monday, who
entered an order appointing c. NJ
Donell w. H. Haley, George E.
Clarkson J. T. Staufier and I. A.
Wayne commissioners to hold an elee-
tion to decide the question. Three
weeks publication of notice will be
necessary, and it will be really about
four weeks before the election is held
1t will be remembered the first at
tempts at incorporation resulted in
litigation which was carried into the
supreme court, that tribunal granting
a restraining ordre or writ preventing
further proceedings in the matter.
c.. NJ. Donnell, Mrs. Flora A. Phillips
formerly Maxtield), the Denver and
Rio Grande Railway company and
some others protested against the in
corporation of their acreage, on the
ground, among other things, that it
was not properly town property and
was agriculture land, and it is claimed
that too much of the railroad was in
cluded Through an amicable under
standing between the past litigants,
a modi ticatiaon of the supreme court 5
older has been obtained allowing
Judge Beardsley to act on the prayer
of the petitioners. 1t is understood,
indeed, that the old protestants have
signed the new petition, notably Mr..
Donell amoug others, and there is no
opposition from any quarter. The
proposed limits will include some of
the acreage referred to- but will not
be so far reaching as at first contem.
plated. C. w. Darrow represented
the protestants in the old proceedings,
and carried up the case with success
for his clients Under the new annie
able arrangements all vestige of liti-
CATION has now disappeared.

For Uniform Divorce Laws

DR.. j. B. McCuish, pastor of the
Presbyterian church of L Ieadville is of
the opinion that there should be en-
acted federal marriage and divorce
law. If there was such law the
question would be greatly simpiified
if not solved. But few states have
laws that are at all similar In Colo
rado divorcee is prohibited from
marrying within one year after the
divorce is granted, but he can go to
Wyoming and take the VOWS next day,
Divorces in this state are often granted
ON the most trivial grounds and under
the law man and woman can live
together two years and then declare
themselves to be husband and wife.
Down in New Mexico such marriage
contracts are made with even more
frequency than in Colorado, Poor
couples claim the fees there are too
high
The California law prohibits a
marriage between the whites and
chinese. The Massachusetts law does
not. The Colorado law prohibits IA
marriage between blacks and whites
The New York law does not. Some
states allow divorces on the ground Of
incompatibility of temper. Other
states do not. In Virginia the age of
consent is twenty one for the man and
thirteen for the woman. In Ten
nessee the age is eighteen and sixteen
respectively. A federal law would do
away with all this.
