The United States Supreme Court,
has decided recently that divorces
obtained in States which do not have
jurisdiction over both parties cannot
be enforced outside of the State grant
ing them. The decision has the effect
of creating the anomaly that people
may be more or less married, accord
ing to their place of residence, and
shows the necessity forFederal action.
Federal control over the marital rela
lions under the late decision at least
seem to be only way in which many
divorces can be obtained that are
worth anything. If people should be
divorced for any other than the
Scriptural reason there can be no
question of the necessity for uniform
divorce laws in all the States.

THE President has again made an
other speech, not in line with his
official duties, and none which has
attracted more attention than the one
one delivered on Saturday known as
the 'muck rake" speech. That the
President would denounce the man
with the muck rake, who can look no
way but downward and fixes his eye
only on what is vile and and debasing,
was expected but he went further.
He took advantage of the occasion TO
sound the alarm against the dangers
which threaten us in the vast fortunes
in the hands of individuals in the
country. 1t is pertinent to the peo'
pie, said he, "to grapple with the
problems connected with the amass-
ing of enormous fortunes and the use
of those fortunes both corporate and
individual in business" and suggested
the remedy in the following:
GAS a matter of personal conylc-
ton, and without pretending to dis
cuss the details or formulate the sys-
.em, feel that we shall ultimately
have to consider the adoption of some
such scheme as that of progressive
tax on all fortunes, beyond certain
amount, either given in life or de
vised or bequeathed upon death &c
any individual-a tax so framed as t(
put it out of the power OF the owner
of one of these enormous fortunes tC
hand no more than a certain amount
to any one individual; the tax, o
course, to be imposed by the national
and not the State, government. Suct
taxation should, Of course, be aimed
merely at the inheritance or trans
mission in their entirety of those for
tunes swollen beyond all healthy
limits"
The speech has caused a big sensa
ton and the views of Mr.. Roosevelt
arepronounced by many as soclalistic
and if an attempt was made to carr,
them into effect would probably b
declared by the courts as unconstltu
tional, but while this may be true
the people of this country general
doubtless, agree with Mr.. Roosevelt
that great fortunes are a menace t
the best interests of the country an
in some way should be controlled.

The Massachusetts House of Repre-
sentatives has cut down the appro-
priation of s75, 900 for the State repre-
sentation at the jamestown Exposition
to $50, 900, in Difference to the demands
of the negro voters in that State and
this does not satisfy them. Efforts
are being made by them to kill the
appropriation outright and, it is re-
ported, with some show of success.
There should be no doubt as to the
part which the people of Massachusetts,
will take, as one of the original
thirteen States, in the event which it
is intended to commemorate, but if
their love for the colOred people is
greater than that for their own race
surely it ought to be matter of in
difference to US if Massachusetts
witholds her support Of the exposition
altogether.
