Divorce Anarchy.

Over paper prepared q year ago
by Judge Robert Grant OF the SUI
folk County Mass. Probate Court
appeared the striking title, "The An
archy Of Our Divorce Laws" It is
the condition 30 aptly described By
this line to which attention Is called
anew by the decree of she Supreme
Court in the Hsddock case: can
arcby and nothing less is the condi-
sion described as affecting many
thousands of divorces and remar-
risges throughout the country"
What really Is the position Of the
American marriage wish regard 30
the separate commonwealth A
couple welded yesterday In Ohio will
be found settled In New York tomor-
row. The bride and bridegroom OF
q year ago In Maine will be domesti-
Gated In California next week. The
migration OF she married is con-
stantly in progress-north, east,
south and west. Opportunity is
national. Il does nos know state
lines.
Then when IL comes to divorce,
South Carolina allows none, New
York permits IL for one cause only,
Tennessee recognizes IL causes, and
In other states are other laws. Indi.
ana reports one divorce 70 seven
marriages. Mainereports one to six,
Massachusetts, one to 16, Michigan
one to IL, and 90 on. But every di.
vorce is American and the man and
woman who part migrate as freely
from state to state-many OF them
into new matrimonial alliances-as
do those Others whom man has not
yet put asunder.
In Canada divorce seekers from
any province must 90 to the Domin'
ion Parliment-the center OF govern,

1874 independent Of the intervention

OF unifying the divorce laws is we'll
advanced and stlll going on. Since
we may learn by outside examples

Missouri Democracy Rings True

""SSeta SSSst w hHHS INV
The meeting Of the Democracy at
Kansas City had the true ring.
There was not false note anywhere
only unaninity of purpose and en-
thusiasm. Is was a rally Of q kind
TO make he artsick the Republicans
who have been incoming and dream
ing about carrying Missouri" DEM
onstrating to them the real earnest
ness, the powerful sincerity, which
animate the Democracy.
Miss ouri In years has not witness
ed such a Democratic demonstration,
nor listened to such q declaration OF
party intent. The utterapces we're
not Of the lips only, but from the
very heart Of the party. They left
no doubt Of the party's spirit and
will. Every man who attended the
great conference carried away the
emphatic impression Of invincibllity
OF that spirit and will. No body Of
men thus animated and inspired
could iall to win the victory. That
the Democratic party Is bent to de-
liver and bound TO deliver Missouri
out the tentative clutch Of Republi-
can ism 10 .he conviction which every
observer must have received Of the
meeting.
Seeing the srdor and fire Of ambi.
tion, the battlespirit, the determine
tion Of victory manifested by the
De mocracy at Kansas City, there
were men who'rejoiccd in the adver.
sity Of 1904 which had served to
70 use the party to such q pitch Of
| p urpose. The fact that a handful Of
State Offices and congressional dis.
tricts went to the enemy at the last
election Is justified ty the results,
thought these men who saw how all
apathy has been shaken off. The
cloak Of indifference fallen from It's
shoulders, Democracy is revealed In
shining armop and eager Tor the fray.
The Kansas City meeting has
plainly interpreted the issue. Law
enforcement will be writ large In the
party's platform as the immediate,
as well as the ultimate and iunda-
mental, principle for which we shall
fight. 1t Is real issue Of vast and
vital moment when the essential pol
Icy and practice Of Democratic I'D.
ministration isattacked by the press
and politicians Of the opposite party
la boring In behalf oispecial interests.
The responsibility Of the Democratic
p ress is clear In such campaign, a
responsibility which was emphasized
at the Kansas City gathering. With
the Democratic newspapers Of Mis-
souri, in unison for impartial and
rigid enforcement Of the laws on the
statute books there can be no doubt
OF the result, but the effort must be
consistent, continuous, courageous.
Certainly the Importance Of the issue,
and on the other hand the grave al.
formative to good government with
which the Republican party threat
ems US, demanded q vigorous and
unswerving press campaign.-St.

SHIPPERS GOT MONEY
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES IN Re
BATE CASE TESTIMONY.

Testimony of unusual interest was brought
out yesterday afternoon in the United
States court at Kansas City, Mo-, In the
trial of George H. Crosby, traffic manager
of the Burlington railway; George L..
Thomas of New York, a freight broker, and
L. B. Taggart his clerk. on a charge OF
conspiracy in rebatfng railroad rates.
The principal witnesses were George A.
Barton of Barton Brothers' Shoe Company,
George w Taylor of Robert Keith Furni-
ture and Carpet Company, E. w. Frey
schlay of the Freyschlag Mercantile Com
pany, all of Kansas City, Mo, and Walter
L. Kelby of New York. formerly a clerk Of
Thomas.
The testimony was that the various firms
received large sums from mysterious
sources after freight bills had been paid
sometimes in express packages and al
ways from New York. On the stand
Freyschlag frankly referred to an agree
ment with Thomas. whereby his firm was
to receive % per cent rebates on freight
bills, and told how the money was de-
posted in New York to the firms credit
Der whether he or Thomas had suggested
the use of the name. At first he said that
the idea was his, but on cross-examination
he said that he could not remember. He
this business" a term all the witnesses
employed. The total amount received in
three years was about 81 500. Freyschlag
said that the rebates for 1908 shipments
are still due but he does not know who
owes them to him. Taggart told him, he
said, that the railroads had not paid up.
Freyschlag said his freight bills amounted
to about $4,000 year.
The Reason for Secrecy
The cross-examination by the govern
ment was something startling. Counsel
kept at the witness until he admitted that
he had agreed to use the name Jackson"
because he thought there might be some
thing criminal In this business"
George Barton of Barton Brothers Shoe
Company told of contracts with Thomas
to route freight and ito attend to claims"
His firm, he said, never received money
from Thomas but did receive some from
w. B. Kelby, Thomas clerk and more
through the mails and by express. The
witness said that after paying his freight
bills in Kansas City he sent them to
Thomas In New York city. The firm paid
Thomas 214 cents a hundred pounds COM
mission on all of its shipments, about 81 500
In two years, in addition to $500 yearly
salary.
George w. Taylor OF Robert Keith Fur
niture and Carpet Company, told of condi-
lions and transactions between his firm
and Thomas. He said that George H.
Crosby had admitted to him that the Bur-
lington paid Thomas salary because "of
the tonnage he controlled
