Wants "Love" Cut Out.

Rev. Ezra j. Riggs, pastor of the
Congregational church at Kensington
has rendered his resignation to take
effect at the end of the present month.
Mr. Riggs believes that the marriage
service contains some words that may
just as we'll be omitted. He suggests
that the words love" and "obey" be
cut out of the service. He said re-
Gently:
1T is some time since the word
obey has been practically eliminated
from the marriage service. With a
view of relieving the parties contract
ing marriage from still further tempt
alton to insincerity l would suggest
that we also struke out the word
love from the marriage service. There
is far more reason for this than the
other. A woman could promise to
obey her husband and it is possible she
could do so in such a degrea as the
most exacting husband might require.
But when a man and a woman prom
Use to love each other until death us
do part there is no certainty that they
will be able to do as they promise.
1T is evident that the marriage SER
vice, as at present constituted, was In
tended for the ideal marriage. but as
ideal marriages are comparatively rare
the service proves a misfit in large
proportion of cases. What clergyman
has not felt the incongruity of exacting
from some people we'll advanced In
years pledge to love and to cherish,
when it was evident the mans chief
motive in marrying was the desire to
o,o,o,,iya In household expenSeS by
providing himself with companion,
whose keep would cost less than the
services of a housekeepe? Or what
mockery to require couple to pledge
themselves to a lifelong affection for
each other when it is only too clear
that marriage has been sought solely
because of some supposed advantages
of wealth or social position"

AN EASY AND NEEDED REFORM.

Secretary John Hay has made an ex-
cellent suggestion of naturalization re-
form, in his report to congress. He
4 would have legislation restricting the
issue Of naturalization papers to par
ticularly specified courts, would have
end require report of each certificate
issued to be filed with the department
9f state. He also recommends the
adoption Of prescribed form of GER
tificate, which may not be easily coun-
forfeited.
Secretary Hay calls attention to the
fact that there are today about five
thousand distinct and separate courts
exercising the function Of naturali-
cation. The rules they follow vary
widely, and the resulting confusion In
practice absolutely defeats the inten-
tion of the constitution that there
should be a fixed and uniform natur-
alization system. The very certificates
of citizenship issued differ in wording
and appearance, and, there being no
definite legal standard, the state de-
partment in issuing passports cannot
apply rigorous rule to defend itself
against Misrepresentation and fraud.
OF the 1917 passports issued in Wash
ing in the calendar year 1903, 7,444-or
46 per cent-were applied for by natur-
allied citizens. OF the 4,281 passports
issued by diplomatic and consular Off
GERS abroad, 210S-or 40 per- cent -
were given to former aliens. He refers
to cases which have not unfrequently
come up in the business Of the state
department where contested passports
have turned out to be forged or fraud
ulent. Forged naturalization papers
are according to Governor Higgins
commonly voted upon in New York as
are those borrowed for the occasion
and purpose.
Our plan of naturalization has al
ways put premium on fraud and been
an accessory to dirty politics. 1t does
not deserve to be called a system and
could scarcely have) been made more
adaptable to fraud and illegal voting
If it had been made solely with that
end in view. Secretary Hay has sug-
gested an easy and necessary reform.

WHIPPING WIFE wHIPPERs.

The presidents recommendation OF
corporal punishment for wife beaters
has been made the topic of much COM
rnent favorable and unfavorable to the
re.establishment of the whipping post.
Some papers are outspoken in their
demand that the brutal husbands back
, be mad1 6uainted with the LASH and
fre Cedar Rapids Republican, which is
against the whipping post as a public
institution, goes so far as to suggest the
gallows as punishment for wife beat
ers. OF course the Republican has
gone too far but it's excessive zeal will
be attributed by those familiar with
the personnel of its editorial staff, to
the excusable tenderness of unmarried
and susceptible men toward lovely wo-'
man. Those who have never known
the sex intimately are prone to idealize
and Editor Cole, whom self denial,
modesty. or misfortune, has barred
from the ranks of the benedicts does
not realize how many married women
deserve licking. However, all will
agree that the husband is not the prop
err person to administer corporal pun
ishment to the wife and that the pen
atty for such brutality should be such
as to convey a lasting fear of future
consequences contingent upon the repe-
titiOn of the crime.
Nevertheless the public whipping
post is inconguous in present day civ
ilization and not to be recalled. 1t be-
longs to a past which included the
debtors prison, public executions and
q thousand other brutalities which the
present is trying to forget. Every wife
beaten deserves the whipping post, per-
haps, as the Republican suggests, he
deserves hanging, but the record shows
that brutal punishments are not refin-
ing influences and do not make bitter
men. To revive the whipping post
and the whipping cart it to inaugurate
a renaissance Of old fashioned brutality
and heedlessness Of human suffering.
There are other and more effective
means of making wife heaters sorry
than the knout. The fault has been as
much in the application Of penalties as
in the failure Of the penalty itself. The
silly wife pleads in court for the man
who beat her and thus effects his re-
lease from the law and insures herself
another thrashing in the near future
II every man arraigned for wife beat
ing were given the fullest penalty now
fixed by law we can get along without
the whipping post and the official brute
necessary to inf1ict its punishment.
