THE ECONOMIC FAILURE OF LII

saloons, Calculating % feet to each,

'In Michigan there is saloon for

every $50 inhabitants, man, woman
and child. The money that goes
over these bars totals 81 90 day per

The Niagara Falls Gazette, I'M an
editorial published during the re-
cent convention of the NATIONAL
Wholesale Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton in that city, in. what was
evidently intended to be a friendly
comment, says: "rI
1t is to the interest of every
brewer and distiller that the. retail
trade be. purged Of the inquitious
classes that have brought 1t Into
disrepute, and none more thoroughly
appreciates this fact than the disc
tiller himself. 1t Is the brothel,' the
den OF vice, the low drinking pesorts
that have 20 aroused J the people
against the liquor trade in general.
They have come to the conclusion
that the only way to suppress thepa
is to strike at tha very root and
foundation of that which makes
the existence of these places possis
BILE. This drastic step, however, IS
not generally favored aud there Is
little doubt that II the liquor inter-
ests and the brewers demonstrate
their willingness, In tangible way
to assist dn the curbing of the
evils that beset the trade, they witi
find that the public Is dissatisfied
and that the agitation Will dtmln-
ish in just the proportion that
they strive to assist. ~.

nizes the saloon as the Legitimate

VIZ ASHINGTON.-It was generally
w known that divorces in the
United States were getting more
numerous each year. but nobody was
prepared for the surprising statement
made in a census bureau report that
one marriage out of every twelve in
the country terminates in divorce.
Yet such is the case, as shown by the
bureaus figures.
The statistics are the result of care
full gathering of figures in every state
in the union, the period covered being
from 1887 to 1906. The last set of
national statistics on marriage and
divorce covered the period from 1867
to 1886. The present set of statistics,
taken in conjunction with the former
one, therefore, gives a view of the
marriage and divorce question for the
past 40 years.
The total number of marriages re-
corded for the 20-year period from
y 1887 to 1906 was 12,S32,044. The total
number of divorces for the period was
N945.625.
For the period of the first investiga-
ton of the subject, from 1867 to 1886,
the total number of divorces was $685.
ZIG. At the beginning of the 40-year
period covered by both Investigations
there were in this country 10000 di-
yorces annually; at the end of the
period there were $4,000 annually.
The divorce rate per 100000 popula-
ton increased from 20 in 1897 to 50
in 1905. The rate per 100000 married

Naval Officers Experts in Diplomacy

The story is that the Relief has been
burdened with woe ever since the
cruise began, and that every officer of
the navy, except the doctors, is
tickled to death that this is so. The
line officers who didn't approve having
a doctor as their commander have
found many ways, the story goes, Of
making life miserable to the men in
charge of the hospital ship. OF course
the suggestion of service conspiracy
to this end would be resented and
could not be proven, but there is a
sub rosa intimation that something
very like a cabal has been formed
with the purpose of proving how much
doctor doesn't know about running
ship.
Wherever the fleet has been the Re-
lief has usually limped along behind
the procession. She has had trouble
getting supplies, getting coal, getting
consideration of all kinds. 1t always
just happened this way and nobody
in particular was to blame. 1t is
limited that when the fleet returns sug.
gestions will be made in many quar-
tiers that the cruise has demonstrated
that nobody is competent to manage
a war vessel who Is not an accredited
officer of the navy. In other words,
that the experience of the Relief, with
medical officer in command, has
been a homeless failure.
