SENSATIONAL DIVORCE DECISION
Judge Says Husbands Crime
Was in Being Found Out.
Not in Commission

Portland, Oregon, May Pa sensa-
ton has been caused here and much dis
cussion started among the women's
clubs and from the pulpit by the un-
precedented ruling of Judge Albert f.
Sears in a recent divorce cvse. The suit
was brought by a husband whose wife
had refused to seek a divorce from him.
She flied a cross bill, charging her hus-
band with infdelity. and rs a result,
much unsavory testimony came out.
Judge Sears granted the decree. but
severely scored the plaintiff, not for
having been unfaithful, but for allowing
his wife to find it out and having to suf-
fer humility therefor. In his comments.
the court practically says it is not u
serious fault in a husband to have little
love episodes ION the outside" but that
the sin lies in getting found out" An
indignant wave of resentment is rising
IN the various women's organizations OF
the city. In part, the aourt's ruling Is
as follows:
II do not feel disposed to be severe
upon this plaintiff. His conduct is not
atrocious or anything of that kind; the
offense is not heinous. The great en-
peror of France. Napoleon. once said
that every man should be a good hus-
band, and that the man who was a good
husband was discreet; in other words.
II he were guilty of some indiscretions
he would avoid a public scandal which.
put in other language, means that he
ought not to be discovered in such acts.
Now hat may not be good ethics, may
not be good law. but it is what has
made the trouble in this case, so far as
appears before the our The emperor
himself. perhaps. fully followed thai
rule. but no one, of course, except hi,
wife, wnuld think OF prying in upon the
affairs of a man of so exalted a station.
Most men are not shielded by the royaI

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT.

Goldheld mining stocks have been ON
the decline for some months past. and
the market is now very, very dull q
with but slight prospects for a revival
in the near future. One trouble az
Goldfeld is the confusion and general
mixup of the wildcat with the legitimate
mining enterprise. 1t is indeed a diff
cult matter for the investing public to
distinguish a difference between the
two AS a general proposition the
wildcat is made to appear the more in
viting Of the two. The wildcatter is
an oily proposition. He has no invest
ment to speak of except the printing of
he shares. He is a glib talker and
generally a good advertiser. He lie the
greatest drawback to the mining bust
ness. but strange to say, he seems to
nave a standing socially and in a bust
