PROHIBITING REMARRIAGE.
Good Points of n Rule Adopted By n
New York Court.
AIinannn ranlin Icrrrr,nI

Minneapolis Journal.
One of the New York courts has estab-
lished new rule in divorce proceedings
1t requires that a divorced person shall not
marry the correspondent named in the case
during the lifetime OF the former husband
or wife. The decree of divorce is made to
carry this condition, and II the condition Ia
violated then the decree becomes void.
There cannot be any sound objection to
such a rule. Defendants in divorce cases
often make no appearance, because they are
well satisfied to get their freedom In order
to marry the person responsible for the
breakup of the family. The new rule will
not reach a majority Of such cases, for
the causes mentioned In the suit are often
not the real causes, and to save salaciOus
proceedings In court the complaint Is
brought on grounds of "cruel and inhuman
treatment" or desertion, which occurs by
mutual consent. Often, too the offending
party brings the complaint and gets a
divorce in order to marry some one else,
whose name does not appear before the
court In these cases the court cannot stop
remarriage without a sweeping order pro-
hibiting II during the lifetime of the former
partner and this Is generally considered too
drastic. But the plan adopted by the New
York court has its good points, and should
not be condemned merely because It can
not reform the whole practice. 1t looks to
be worth a trial In other states.

Candidate Hitchcock is trying to
lay claim to a patent right on the
proposition for a postal savings bank.
The fact is, the postal savings bank
has been advocated and agitated by
The Bee for a quarter Of a century
and its persistent hammering upon
that subject has had as much, II not
more, TO do with bringing the ques-
ton finally to the front as any other
one agency. 1t is a further fact that
Congressman Kennedy's advocacy of
postal savings banks dates back about
as far as Candidate Hitcheock's, and,
more than that, through Mr. Ken
nedy's effort an official inquiry has
been started to secure authoritative
information about the operation of
postal savings banks In other coun-
tries that promises to bring the mat
ter soon to a focus. The campaign
handbook issued by the national re-
publican congressional committee in
cludes postal savings banks In the list
of enumerated pressing pending meas
lires. while the democratic handbook
has no reference whatever. In a word.
the election Of republican congress
promises consideration Of the postal
savings bank project, but the election
of a democratic congress gives no as
surance that the subject will ever get
on the legislative program.

THE MOVEMENT STARTED BY
YANKEES.
This remarkable invasion originated
IN the combined forces OF the Dominion
government and Yankee SPECTATORS,
and It has been carried on by those
forces from the beginning until now.
Indeed. | might say that our real es-
tate men were the real discoveries Of
the new Canada. The Canucks have
long known that they have vast area
OF good soil, but they had no idea
how II could be developed until the
strenuous American crossed tho boun-
dory and planned out the way.
To begin with, the movement IL the
outcome OF the filing up OF the United
States. For years the American rail-
ways, which are always figuring after
possible traffic, have known that they
were carrying about 10000 emigrants
to our great west every IL months. This
try. and II has rapidly filed the vacant
spaces. II has eaten up most Of the
homesteads given free by our govern
ment and has swallowed about all the
cheap lands that could be had In large
blocks About 1900 the fact that the
most OF such lands were gore became
well known, and the American pioneer
farmer who had settled in Ohio ami
there made money by selling out and
buying cheaper lands in Illinois, and
again made more by moving from there
on to North Dakota found himself AZ
the end OF such speculation. Lands
everywhere had risen, and In the far
west they were worth from Sl5 and up
ward per acre.
Al the same time the big land opera
tors, who had been buying large tracts
In Minnesota and the Dakotas from
the Northern Pacific and other railroads
and selling them out to the farmers
found that there was no more land to
buy; and that they would have TO have
new territory or quit the business, The
farmers began to wonder what kind OF
lands there were In Canada. and our
real estate men TO search far and wide
for new worlds TO conquer.

Among these real estate agents were

buying our railroad lands and selling
them. Their names were Robertson
and Lynch Robertson had started life
as country school teacher al $50 n
month. and Lynch had begun as land
surveyor at "A few dollars per tract.
The two discussed the situation and
Robertson WAS sent to Canada to spy
out the land. He came here In the win
ter and took trips from Winnipeg out
over the different railroads visiting the
small towns OF the wheat belt and OF
the new country beyond He would
stop at a village hotel and engage In
conversation with the farmers, asking
as to their crops and the prospects, one
man would tell him that he got " BUSH
els OF wheat per acre that year. and.
on being asked as to the year previous.
would reply that he had made 20 BUSH
els then. hut that the year before he-had
gotten only Is bushels, as his crop had
been failure.
