COLBYISM HAS TOOK"
Trenton" in the New York Herald
Says FordyCe Is Sp0tless.
(From New York Herald

The contagion of Everett Colby's
example in declaring himself a can
didate for senatorial nomination in
defiance of the local boss has spread
to MiddleseX county, where it has
broken out in virulent form. AleXan-
der r. Fordyce, Jr., who served that
county in the assembly for two years
with distinction and acceptability,
has publicly announced himself as a
candidate for senator. In making
this announcement he declares his
purpose to make his appeal to the
people direct, "as ! believe" he says,
lin government of and responsible
ity to the people, not of and to a
boss" He adds that 'bossism and
graft, going hand in hand, have been
undermining the very foundation of
representative government in this
commonwealth" He expresses con-
fidence that the people, with the
scales fallen from their eyes, with an
awakening sense of present evils and
dangers yet to come from these vam-
pires, will repudiate and throw them
off entirely" 1t is said that Mr.. For
dyce's candidacy is the result of an
urgent demand from all parts of the
county. 1t will undoubtedly precip-
itate a tremendous and sensational
political struggle in MiddleseX, very
similar to that which ~convulsed Es-
sex county last year, when Boss
Lentz encountered signal defeat at
the hands of Mr.. Colby.
Mr.. Fordyce is very much the same
kind of a man as the Essex senator.
He is a graduate of Princeton, and a
counsellor at law, and a gentleman
OF spotless character and of high
ideals in politics. He made a distinct
mark and most honorable record in
the assembly. He is a born fighter,
and will conduct his canvass for the
nomination with energy and spirit.
.lcr will be something dong il
MiddlcscX this year every hour from
now on until the polls close next cleo
ton day. The "vampire'' to whom
Mr.. Fordyce in his fierce challenge
presumably refers, is "Dory" Strong,
the republican boss, who has for
7piil' Itlllt tAGItlScu dDSOlulc COHAlC
OF republican politics in that county.
The present senator is w. II. c. Jack
son, who is serving the last year Of
his first term. 1t is the custom 20
give Il senator the compliment of a
denomination if he has proven salts
factory and Mr.. Strong thinks that
Senator Jackson has earned such rec
ognition. 1t is the unbiased judgment
of all who have watched his career in
the senate that Mr.. Jackson has made
a safe, honest, sagacious and level
headed legislator. The only criti-
cism of him is that he is too much
under the influence of the boss and
Yields himself 90 completely to the

RULING IMPORTANT.
Supreme Court Decision Stirs S0CI-
ety's Depths.

NEW YORK. April lS.-Consterna-
ton and anxiety have been caused IN
all parts of the country by the decision
of the United States supreme court III
the Haddock divorce case. y large
number Of divorced persons OF hlgn
social standing and wealth are affect
ed. their remarriageS tainted. the leglti-
macy of children placed in doubt and
vast property rights menaced.
There was Il Fastening TO consult
lawyers. who could give little assur-
NICE until the full text Of the decision
is studied. 1t will be several days I'M
til the courts opinion is printed, and
until then there will continue a most
embarrassing state of matrimonial I'M
certainty.
The main point decided by the court
is that of matrimonial dOmicilc or the
place of residence of the parties to the
divorce. From the extracts already
printed interested lawyers draw the
following deductions:
\ divorce to be universally legal
must be obtained in the state where
there was marital domicile-that is,
where husband and wife lived together.
The open question to be determined
opinion relates to the appearance of
the defendant in the court. 1t seems
fully determined that if in another
state there is notice of the action
served on the defendant only by pub
LEGATION and he does not enter an APP
pearance the Judgment will not stand.
Lawyers differ as to the legality of Il
decree obtained in another state when
the defendant had been served and put
in an appearance.
Vastly important questions of legali-
ty of remaTriages, of Legitimacy of
children and of property rights depend
upon the minute analysis of the de-
ciSiOn.
Among the most notable cases dis
cuSsed was that of Mrs. Mamie Lang
horne Shaw. who is soon to marry
young Waldorf Astor. Society Won
ders whether the marriage to Mr.. AS
tor will nov take place.
Another striking case is that of Mrs.
Flora BigeloW Dodge. who went to
South Dakota and there obtained a de-
@ although that state never had
been a marital domicile for herself and
husband, Since then she has married
the Hon. Lionel Guest of England.
The present Mrs. w. r. Leeds. wife
of the plate millionaire, formerly was
Mrs. Nonnic Worthington Of Cleve-
land. She went to South Dakota and
obtained her freedom.
The present Mrs. William T. Bull
obtained a divorce from James G.
Blaine, ,Jr.. in Dakota.

HIS MESSAGE
ON INSURANCE
President Roosevelt Urges Strict
Laws Against Graft Must Pre-
vent Scandals in Future.

WASHINGTON. April 1S.-President
Roosevelt has transmitted to congress
an important message relating to in
surance legislation, Accompanying the
message were the report and recon-
%mendations of the Chicago insurance
convention. Among the recommends
| tons is the draft of n hill which con
gress is urged to enact into law, with
such amendments as its wisdom may
suggest.
The bill which accompanied the mes
sage provides for an insurance bureau
in the department of commerce and
Ia bor and the appointment of Il COM
missioner who shall not he Interested
in the business of any company except
as a policy holder. Every company
doing business in the District of Co
lumbia must be examined at least once
every three years.
The president urges the enactment
of the proposed measure, as, he says,
we are not TO be pardoned if we fail
to take every step in our power to pre-
rent the possibility of the repetition of
such scandals as those that have oc-
Cured in connection with the insur-
ance business as disclosed by the Arm
strong committee"
The text of the presidents message
follows:
Il herewith transmit the report and
| recommendations of the Chicago insur-
ance convention. The convention was
called because of the extraordinary
disclosures of wrongful insurance
methods recently made by the Arm
! strong legislative committee of the
| state of New York, the suggestion thai
it should be called coming TO me origi-
nally from Governor John A. Johnson
of Minnesota through Commissioner of
insurance Thomas O'Brien of that
state.
The convention consisted of about a
hundred governors, attorneys general
and commissioners of insurance of the
states and territories of the Union. The
convention was seeking to accomplish
uniformity of insurance legislation
throughout the states and territories
and as II prime step toward this plIr-
pose decided to endeavor to secure the
enactment by the congress of the Unit
ed States of a proper insurance code
for the District of Columbia, which
might serve as q model for the several
states.
Before adiourning the convention

neys general and twelve commissions
