 States the divorce laws are probably too liberal. but in few they are out- rageously so, as the statistics show. and this is one of the crying evils Of the times Hardly any human obligation should be held more sacred and bind- ing than the marriage relation. When God brought Adam and Eve together, and it was ordained that they shall be one fiesh," 1t was plainly not intended that they should separate at will. and all through the Bible. in both precept and example. the sacredness and per- manency of the marriage relation are set forth. Tn none of the teachings of the Almighty. or of the Savior, or os those who spoke for them. can we find any encouragement for the believers of marriages for convenience." as they are sometimes calIed--very properly. in many cases. And so it is that the sta tistical reports of the enormous in- crease in divorces is both discouraging and alarming. And again, the question suggests itself: Is there no remedy7

WILL HE succEEps

The New Bedford Standard calls att tention to the persistent and wide spread belief in washington that Roosevelt is using his efforts and in fiuence to discourage the boom which has lately grown up for Governor Hughes. of New York, as presidential candidate. If the report is true. there is no occasion for surprise. Hughes is becoming too prominent to suit Roose- velt, who fears that the Governor will stand in his (Taoosevelt's) path for the nomination. Says the Standard:
 In Charles E. Hughes. the country has the grateful sight of a man who, with all the temptations that must be set before him. is not using an import ant trust to play politics., as the whrase goes. He may have given of- zense to MT. Rooseveit, as is intiInated by his unmistakable intention to pc Governor himself without the Presi- dents help; but as he, sa,oIu and not MT; New York, that does not appear to be a serious fault. The President of the United States cannot afford 10 place himself or allow himself to be placed frl the aspect of antagonist to such a Governor as Charles E. Hughes, who Is faithful to the duties for which he was chosen, who is evidently a sincere re- former, who Is not using his position fo advance his political ambitions, and who is his own man. People are well disposed toward a man like that.
 As The Standard should know by this time, Roosevelt doesn't like independ- ent, self-reliant men. He seems to think that monopoly of those virtues should be reserved for himself. and that no other Republican should interfere with what he seems to consider his re- served rights. On more than one occa- sion, MT. Hughes has shown his re- sentiment at the attempts of the Presi- dent to interfere with New York's af- fairs without reason or excuse. and to . man of Roosevelt's temperament and anordinate self-conceit. that Is little bet ter than an unpardonable offence. whether his policy will break down the popularity of Hughes remains to be seen, but he is manifestly trying to do that not very creditable thing.

After the 9th of July next, forty-six stars win appear on the United States nas. the President. by proclamation, having. on the 18th of November. made encouragement of the admission of the State of Oklahoma into the Union.
 The growth of Oklahoma has been exceedingly rapid for less than twenty years ago 1t contained very few white people. Since 1888 there has been a steady flow of citizens. and now. to- gether with Indian Territory, 1t is gathered into the national fold. with a population of nearly one and half millions of people. While the star will not go on the fiag at this time. Okla homa is a fuli-fedged State.
 Utah was admitted into the Union in 1898. yet it had then, and has now, far less population than the new State of Oklahoma. In fact. Oklahoma has larger population than any State ever had at time of admission. In spite of rniS, however because an immense ma jority of the voters saw proper to vote the Democratic ticket for State and County offices. desperate efforts were made to Induce the President to with hold the proclamation of admission. This was partisanship of the basest type. for there was no claim of fraud and no doubt Of the honestly expressed will of the people. Whatever doubts the President may have entertained on the subject, he resolved them in favor of the majority of the people, and Oklahoma becomes one of the galaxy of States. It has already chosen full quota of State and County officers, elected Congresmen aEd designated. by primary election, those who are to serve as United States Senators. Four of the five Congressman are Democrats and the two Senators win be of the Demo cratic faith.

There is a growing disposition in New York to adopt ordinances and munich nal regulations looking to the limita- tion of the height of buildings in flu ture. The Public Buildings Commission recommends that in future no house shall be built to a greater height than 25O feet, but whether the city govern ment will adopt and enforce such sug- gestion remains to be seen. Most people will think that a building 250 feet high is tall enough, but the sky scraping New Workers are not satisfied with such an elevation and want to go up five or six hundred feet with their office buildings. If there isn't some limit placed on their ambition, the builders will eventually carry the tops of their structures outside the jurisdic- ton of the United States.

Chattanooga Times.
 MT. F. P. Glass. of The Montgomery Advertiser. one of the first gentlemen of Alabama in education, broad patriot ism and loyal citizenship. In an address to the Commercial Club of Montgom- cry the other night, paid some atten- tion to the attitude of Governor Conner toward corporations. railroads in par ticular. In the course of hts speech. MT. Glass said: The Governor of this State is determined to punish corpor- ations. This idea is stuck in his -head and nothing but dynamite will get 1t out" This utterance was seized upon at the State Capitol and a great pre- tense was made that 1t portended great danger to the Governors person. Gen eral Bibb Graves. who is too intelii- gent a man to believe anything he said about 1t. became tremendously alarm ed-"in z horn"-and in a public in- terview intimated that MT Glass was an anarchist and addressing himself to the Legislature said: 'It behooves those entrusted with the law making power to see 10 1t forthwith that all things needful and proper be done 10 put an immediate end to such conditions ana save Alabama's executive from Geo. bers fate.
 It is hardly likely that the people of Alabama will fail to penetrate this very gauzv bit of demagogy, ana yet how often such nonsense as this IS re- He'd upon to fool the public. It IT. illustrates the fatuous idea so many pup lie men. who are too small for the T. Aces they hold have with regard 70 their own importance and the sacred ness of their own official acts. MT Glass simply criticized a public ofti- cial. using Q strong figure of speech to express that officials stubbornness and tenacitv to q single idea-and yet he is held up as an anarchist ana 2 promoter ot assassination. The people may deem themselves fortunate that there are such men as MT.

Hartford Special.
 In addressing the members of the National Grange, and their friends at the public meeting tonight, President Charles s. Mellen of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad said:
 "The prejudice excited by the dema- gogues and politicians against corpor- ations has now reached a stage where others are suffering. The burdens which have rested so long and heavily on corporations and those charged Yith their affairs is being distributed, and this community will soon have It's own troubles to worry about. The losses in value and fortune in this country. since the beginning of this year. have been greater than occurred as result of the Civil War.
 This Is not a rich mans panic. It is widespread distress, rapidly ex- tending itself to the farthest sections of the country. Even those who did not know the gun was loaded, whose only thought was sensation and popu- larity are becoming sobered by the outlook"
