Marriages I'm Bible Times,

From the Bible accounts Of the mar
riages Of Jacob with Leah and Rebecca
and from other narratives Of marriages
In Jewish history it seems that mar
rage was not held to he a sacrament
or religious rite i'll the times of the
patriarchs In those days the head Of
the family, the father, was priest and
ruler of the family and the only priest
or ruler whose authority it recognized
As far as we learn from the Bible mar
rative in the case Of Jacobs marriages
the simple giving of his daughters by
Isaac constituted the marriage, there
being no religious or other ceremony
whatever. OF course, however. mar
riages made In this way were Just as
sacred and just as binding rs those
performed in the most cCrrmouiouS
manner In these days in Protestant
countries the marriage laws d. not
look upon marriage rs i sacrament
but only as civil contract, though
most people prefer to give it certain
religious sanction by having It per
formed by church minister.-St- Louis

Washington's Birthday Celebration.

The local lodge of Red Men, promoters
of the Washington's Birthday eelebrs-
ton, do not wish to monopolize the
movement but desire the hearty coopera-
ton of all the citizens of Daytona and
surrounding towns, in order to make it a
pronounced success and insure its con
tinuance from year to year, not nsces-
sarily under the auspices of the Red
Men, but as apopular, public observance
of the day.
The schools, it seems. are taking up the
matter very enthusiastically and the
business men show a disposition to add
their efforts to the movement, but it
should have the spontaneous support
and backing of the whole population
of Daytona and vicinity.
Parties interested in this patriotic
movement are invited to attend the
nightly meetings held in the former Ga
zette-News building on North Beach
street.

gave the citizens and visitors Of Day
tona a complimentary Stereoptlcon en-
tertainment at the Opera House last
night The entertainment was by far
the finest ever given in this city in the
way Of Stereopticon views. The house
WAS packed and many could not gain

made by many old veterans who were
at Norfolk during the Sixty's. The en-

and has impressed the people in this Vi

MISSOURI SLOPE PEOPLE would UNI
doubtedly like to see the state fair To-
Gated at one place, and not have it
run around on wheels, as at present.
But the legislature saw fit to take the
fair from Mandan and give it '.year
about to Fargo aud Grand Forks
The eastern part Of the state is not
the reaIly-truly section for "a state fair.
A function Of this kind should be held
ON the Missouri Slope, which is better
suited for diversified farming, and is
the natural habitat of the giant
squash, the mammoth cucumber land
things like that" as the dear old
major would say. The otf-and-on fairs
OF the whether at Fargo or
Grand Forks-are said by people from
these parts who have attended them
to be little more than big horse-races.
However, II the fair must be kept In
the east, we would much rather have
1t held in Fargo every year, because
the state metropolis is more easily
reached by the people Of the Slope
than is Winsllipville. But most,
Slope people believe in The Square
Deal, and we are not much in love
with the sand-bag methods by which
Fargo is trying to take the entire pie
from her weaker sister of the many
'isms, down the creek.

TEN won out in Aberdeen by vote OF
1.OOl for to 6557 against majority of
344. Every city and most OF the large
towns Of the sister state went against

Pierre, Sioux Falls, Webster-in fact
every city Of any consequence in the
state. But in North Dakota our two
principal cities-withsc scores Of licensed

One Ut the personal attributes Of
Senator Porter j. McCumber is persist
ency. Some time ago he introduced a
bill in the United States senate pro-
viding for the federal inspection Of
grain. The opposition was too great
for the senator to succeed in having it
passed. But he Is not whit discour.
aged by the result, and will reintro-
duce the bill at the next session. The
idea is that federal inspection would
relieve North Dakota farmers from
the "plugging' system now in vogue
at Minnesota terminal points. When,
by mixing OF grains OF different grades,
IL comes 10 pass that more high-grade
grain leaves Duluth for the east than
Is received at the Minnesota lake
port, 1t is high time that something
were done to make such fraud imp0s-
stble. Mr.. McCumber's contention for
federal inspection was strengthened
by series Of hearings on this subject
held last year by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, which showed by
indisputable testimony the evils of the
present system Of state supervision.
The Record believes that it is only a
question OF time and not long time,
either when Senator McCumbers bill
or one along Identical lines-will be-
come the law OF the land.
