DIVORCE LAWS.

Cardinal Logue, who has departed for Ireland after making very fav- orable impression upon all thosc who were fortunate enough to come into contact with him. had a word or two eral at the time of parting. IL was on the aforementioned subject of d. vorce. "I should like to say to the American people that the alarming increase in the number of dvorces in the United States" he said, "is great and crying evil. full of danger. The greatest advances of any country must be measured by the strength and purity of the home. Divorce disrupts the home and desecrates it's sanctity."
 This warning comes simultaneous ly with the announcement that the seat of the divorce evil in this coun- try, South Dakota. is at last to reform Heretofore t has been possible for any ill-mated couples to go there and on a six-months residence, present their claims for the granting of a di- vorce to the court Of course the re- quired oath that residence was estab- llshed in good faith has been perjur- ed one time after time. but that has not lessened the number of divorce seekers from other states that have gone to Sioux Falls to stay not a day after getting their decrees. Next No- vember the citizens of the state of South Dakota will pass upon a law submitted to them under the initia- tive and referendum system which will provide that in the future di- vorces may only be granted to persons married outside of the state after they have established their residence in South Dakota for a year or more. It lS tAHtiltu llltl lllt Id " W III DdSSt SD great is the sentiment against the reputation of the state in this re- gard
 Undoubtedly the cardinal would be pleased to learn of this interest in di- vorce reform in the very place where divorces have been most frequent Probably what he would urge would be even stricter laws in South Dakota and uniform laws on the subject throughout the states That is what is needed. The divorce problem vii never be solved until the states act unitedly.

HIT HIM AGAIN.

Not content with its first onsaushte upon District Attorney William Trav- CTS Jerome of New York the "yellows" are at 1t again with new ammunition. They seem tG realize that they have missed fire, else what need would there be for further accusations? What they can hope to gain by the latest salliee it is not easy to see. Inasmuch as the commissioner, who Is hearing the case under orders from Governor Hughes, would not consent to entertain other charges than those which had been submitted to him by the governor for investigation, the newest allegations have been sent straight to Governor Hughes with the expectation that he in turn will add them to those already in the hands of the commissioner.
 Mir. Jerome is now charged with shaking dice for $1 a shake" and drinks with Allan A, Ryan, and the as- isstant district attorney, MT Garvan, at the time of the Thaw trial.

RIGHT IN THE LIMELIGHT.

Exercise her modesty as she may try to do Connecticut cannot this year keep out of the llmelight. The repub- llcsn ticket will sing her intellectual virtues in the nomination of Secre- tary Taft of Yale for president and may possibly got step farther and place upon the shrinking brow of Mir Hammond. also of Yale, the vice pres idential wreath
 This is not all. There may be other contributions to Connectlcut's con tentment of mind and her exaltation of vanity. A correspondent of the New York Sun, who describes him self as "A New Democrat" whatever that may be, writes in behalf of the nomination of Melbert Brinkerhoff Cary of Ridgefeld for vice president on the Denver ticket. His democra- cy needs no guarantee of genuine ness; he Is an able lawyer, and as a parliamentarian he has no superior Cary could swing this state into the democratic column"
 Connecticut, demur and modest makes no dissent from these attempts to utilize her fame. She may even add without fear of contradiction that If the two political conventions get themselves into a snarl they car by telegraph receive the names of men fitted to occupy any office or ser les of offices within their gift. Nol would the country make mistake, al this time of office seeking, in turning to the good old horse sense of Con necticut for leaders to conduct the government. Let the good work gc on. The little yellow spot on the mar Is reached by steam road, trolley boat, automobile, wagon and on foot All who enter here bring hope with them.

spite of the enormous cost of eonstruc- ton, throughout this whole period of depression Is scarcely less extraordin- ary in view of the fact that savings banks, of which the Connecticut is one felt the panic, as a rule lees than did the regular banks of deposit,

SAFEGUARDING THE JUDICIARY.

That there is a definite amount of nervousness on the part of many cti- zens over the somewhat frequent criti- cisms of the courts, and the attitude of political parties towards them, Is shown in the remarkable appeal to the republican platform builders by eighteen of the most eminent men In New York state to include this plank in the final structure: We affirm our confidence in the integrity and jus tice of the courts, state and national, and we insist that the preservation of their Independence and full con stitutlonal prerogatlves is essential to the maintenance of the American sys- tenn of government. Doubtless the democratic convention will be asked to include the same statement of faith.
 There have been a number of incl dents which account for this unex- pected and yet not inconsistent appeal The attitude of the democratic plat form in 1896 towards the courts did as much to destroy the hopes of Mir. Bryan as the silver plank did. It was the first organized attack upon the integrity and independence of the rtc f,t rh after all the courts are the last bull wark of free institutions. President Roosevelt has upon more than one oc- caslon shown a disturbing readiness to eriticise court decisions and to crit icise court proceedings. The leaders Of organized labor have frequently declared that the courts were un- friendly and have asked, with at least a show of the presidents favor, for the enactment of laws which woulu relieve them from the ban of injunc- tion proceedings In various states there have been attempts made in d spirit of criticism for the manner in which the courts have interpreted the laws, to have new laws made which should weaken the power of the courts in that respect All of these things have sprung from nervous irrita- ton with the calm attitude of the courts during a prolonged season of political agitation and huggermugger- | ing It has even been rumored that the older members of the supreme court have declined to take advantage of their right to resign on a pension for fear their places would be filled bs men in sympathy with the reign of clamor. At the last session of con gress bill was introduced seeking the compulsory retirement of those aged but competent justices
 It is not wonder that under these circumstances that men, eminent at the bar, former cabinet officers and college presidents should unite in de- manding the reiteration of a popular faith in the integrity of the courts
 It Is time such a declaration was made and that too by both of the old CT parties.

The New tfaven editor sldesteps all reference to that, in his conversations, and says he's too old to seriously consider such responsibilities as have been suggested, though one may readily imagine the veteran jour nallst-who Is still several years on the sunny side of the allotted three score years and en--communicating sly wink. as he makes and admits the soft self f-impeachment, upon the portrait on his desk. of Uncle Nehemiah D.

destroyed), In much the same manner does the Now York World say making reference to the gambling charge brought against MT, Jerome "on this charge alone Mr. Jerome should be re- moved Tho World repeats, There can be no public confidence in the enforce ment of the criminal law In New York county so Ions as William Trayers Je- rome Is district-attoney,'
 Whether 1t is to be Jerome, the dis trict attorney or Jerome, the private citizen, who Is to stand trial In this lateet matter, there may easily be some question. If it Is the latter, the pub He may feel little concern. for that Is not the Jerome 1t cares about, If 1t Is to be the former, 1t would not seem to be serious enough to warrant his re- moval from office. A policeman may be removed for conduct unbecoming an officer but with district attorney 1t is his deeds of commission as a pub lie officer that overshadow his deeds of omission as a private citizen. There can be little doubt that this latest charge can be proved before the com missioner. Mr. Jerome himself ad- mitted the incident on the witness stand. It was his franGness about the matter not as a consclence-stricken wrong-doer put as an unconventional and sincere man who is entirely above board, that was convin ling.
 Tho Meriden Record believes Mir. Je- rome has changed since he became district attorney. "When he first took office he seemed imbued with the true spirit of progress and devotion to an ideal" says that paper but from all accounts and making all allowance for political bias, New Works district at torney does not seem to consider his position in quite such serious fash ion as when he first took the helm" If that is so, and he has changed 1t may be said to be largely due to his lack of support when there are those ready tc make such charges as the present ones Indiscreet, uldignihed he may have been; but the district attorney should be judged more by what he accom-. plehes at tho bar than by what he does as a private citizen.

OR TROLLEY STARTERS

It Is pleasure to learn that there IS every prospect of a favorable report being made to tho board of aldermen by the committee on ordinances in re- gard to Chief cowlos' proposed regula- tons for the proper control of street traffic by the police, That committee would not be doing It's duty to the city of New Haven, aid 1t report otherwise.
 It Is encouraging too, to know that Mir. Punderford and Attorney Robin son have said, as representatives of the Connecticut company and the new auto club respectively, that they see the wis., dom of the regulations in the main But how Mr, Punderford can hope for a change in the traffic regulations and still say, as he did that the trained" trolley starters at Church and Chapel streets and elsewhere can more efll- ciently regulate the traffic than the po- lice, 1t is difficult to see.
 1t has been in thls very regard that great deal of the trouble has lain In the past The trolley company has not so much trained the trolley starters to regulate the traffic as 1t has train ed' the public to tolerate these same starters in their attempts at regulation. Ask a traffic policeman in New York, ono of the so-called giant squad on Broadway for instance, or one of Lon don's traffic monarchs, for such they are. what they would think of trolley official no matter who attempting tc regulate the trolley traffic, and they would laugh outright
 No one can deny that New York has succeeded creditably in the matter ot trolley and other street traffic regula. tion and infinitely better than New York's police force has done in many other regards But the basis of tn, whole system in New York has beer and the basis of 1t In New Haven, | successful, must be that there Is on, man responsible at every street inter section. The old saying, Two heads ar, better than one," is not true in matter of traffic regulation. If there are tw, policemen in New York stationed at al intersection, one of them orders ant the other sees that those orders ar oheyed by the drivers What Is wante, in New Haven, at Church and Chape streets and elsewhere, is not a starte of the trolley company to regulate tn cars, and a policeman or two to regu late all other traffic, and all of then working on their own initiative: must be one policeman who, when h raises his hand or blows his whistle, 1 obeyed explicitly Then if he doe wrong, the place to argue 1t out is no with him, but at the police station wit the captain. Let the starters help If tn company wishes. but the time has com when they must be subordinate to tn police.

Brooker and Taft.

Brooker of this state must not be allowed to stay on the executive committee of the national republican committee, It would be difficult 10 get up a more misehievous piece of transformation. Its evident purpose is to make troble. Mir Brookers relations with President Roosevelt have always been especial ly friendly and. as for Mir Taft. when he spoke In Bridgeport a while ago he was Mr. Brooker's guest.
