chas. Smith for Senator.

While the Smiths OF the lower PEN
insula are getting busy after the sen-
atoral toga now worn by Senator
Alger, the people Of the upper PENN
sula are getting busy with the branch
Of the family that claims the u. p. as
its home and during the week the
Hon. Chas. Smith, Of Lake Linden,
Las been mentioned by his friends a. a
candidate for the honor,
senator Smith will nave a unanimous
vote from the upper peninsula II he
goes after the place.
However, the fact that he is a re-
sident OF the upper peninsula con
stitutos drawback that will leave
MIN but poor chance Of getting any
consideration from tine fellows in the
lower peninsula who have the
mum bers TO make the nominations.
The following interview, given by Mr..
Smith 10 the Mining Journal CORES
pondent, shows that he takes about the
same view of the situation
The senator was asked il ne did not
care 60 say little something about
the toga talk and he remarked.
/" Oh, there Is nothing to say. The
boys will talk you know. and was u
little pleased to think that | was con
sidered as possibility. OF course,
there is no man who would not ike TO
get into the United States senate, bat
even if | did want the place the fact
of my location mp here would make il
difficult.
The reporter facetiuosly asked
something about the weight of the
credentials necessary 10 gain admit
lance to a millionaire club. where
upon Senator Smith said Il don't
believe could get in 20 the United
States senate for million dollars-if
! had the million. II is very evident
that Senator Smith Is not worrying
much about the mantle OF Alger"

The United States Supreme Court
handed down "A decision in divorce
case last Monday that is Of great i'm.
portance and revolutionizes the prac-
tice IN similar cases as heretofore fol
lowed II puts in question numerous
marriages and the standing Of great
number OF children
A husband living in Connecticut
sued in the courts Of that state for a
divorce from his wife who resided in
the state OF New York and the divorce
was granted. Many years afterwards,
the wife instituted proceedings TO svt
aside the decree and declare the second
marriage illegal. The New York
state court held that the second mar
riage was illegal and the case was APP
pealed by the husband to the T. s.
Supi eme court.
Justice White. in deciding the case,
laid down the general principle that a
state in which only one party to di.
vorce proceedings resides, has no right
to dissolve q marriage tie. which all
other states must respect Justice,
Harlan. Brewer and Brown united in
a dissenting opinion, which was de-
iivered by Justice Brown. They tool
the position that the Connecticut di
vorce proceeding was regular and il
entitled TO due credence in other states.
