DIVORCE, A NATIONAL CURSE
(By CARDINAL GIBBONsl

Divorce Is one OF the crying evils
of the day, in which the Church is
vitality interested. Our stand is I'M
assailable. There should be no d.
vorce at all; 1t pleases me immensely
TO hear that Bishop Greer (successor
TO the late Bishop Potter and other
prUslnent. members of other churches
feel as we do in the Catholic Church.
Divorce today, and say 1t with
out reserve, IL the one great black
spot upon American civilization. 1t
is terrible, unspeakable, outrageous.
The number OF divorces in the United
States in proportion to the popula-
ton is the greatest in the world.
Think of that stain on our escutch-
con.
"The salvation OF society depends
upon the family. The salvation Of
the family depends upon the prcscr-
walton of the marriage bond for all
time. Dissolve the marriage bond
and you virtually dissolve society.
Only when the sanctity of the mar
\ riage tie and the obligations of the
family relation are more fully real
lied, and religious training in the
family becomes more general, may
we look for better conditions in So
ciety at large, and not until then.
THE great crimes and scandals
which are exciting so much comment

by those who have neither the time
nor the inclination to delve into
such subjects and draw their own
deductions.
At the same time, Mr.. Atkinson is
a dyed-in-the-wool Free Trader md
the arguments he has set forth In
support of his theories have hereto
fore been extremely amusing. rs
there has been no occasion for tarlif
discussions for many years. Mr.. At
kinson has not recently had an OPP
portunity to let himself loose in this
respect, and he must have been
awaiting the promised revision of the
tariff with the utmost zest.
Mr.. Atkinson is known as one of
the cheap-coat tariff brigade and can
never be brought to answer an argu-
ment on the assertion that "a cheap
coat makes a cheap man" His idea
Is that there should be no tariff on
clothing, that 1t should all be admit
ted free of duty from England, Ger
many, and other countries where
wages are lower and II can be pro-
duced more cheaply than in the Uni
ted States. II this were done, of
course all the clothing factories in
the United States would have to be
closed the workers in them would
be idle, earning no wages and un-
Inh 30 .In hoo
made abroad. II was in President
, Cleveland's time, under the Wilson
bill, that we had some little expert
ence of this kind, and then depots
were established In all the large East
ern cities where clothing had to be
given away free to men, women, and
children in order to save them from
shivering to death.
But now Brother Atkinson Is de-
voting his attention to warmer
cline, that OF Cuba. He asks for a
reduction in the tariff on sugar PRO
duced in the Island Republic, a diff
ferential rate that will favor the for
eign islands cane-growers and sugar
manufacturers.
Ordinarily II would be supposed
that Mr.. Atkinson were making this
appeal on behalf of his great and
good friends, the American people, n
sort of free-breakfast-table cry, Just
as he clamored for the cheap coat for
the man who was out of work and
had no money with which to buy the
coat. The thousands OF men who
work In the beet fields and factories
of the mainland cut no ice with Mr.
Atkinson, 1t is something special that
he wants for the labor of Cuba and
incidentally, for the capital invested
there, part of which belongs to Mr.
Edward Atkinson himself. who owns
a sugar plantation in Cuba. II is not
any free breakfast table that he
wants for the American people, but
his clamor is for tariff crumb FOL

the Women's Home Missionary Socie-
ty of the Methodist Episcopal Church
in Philadelphia, Mrs. S. d. Potter Of
Evanston. Ill, secretary of the mis-
sion work in Utah, offered resou
ton that Congress pass an anti-po-
lygamous amendment to the consti-
tuition. The resolution was adopted
unanimously by the convention. In
calling attention to the Importance
of action as manifested in the reso-
luton, MRS. Potter declared that she
had found Utah the most difficult
field ever entered by the Home Mis-
sionary Society. She requested that
the delegates, after adjournment,
charge themselves with the task of
Ggitating the portions of the coun-
try into which they were going to a
revolt against polygamy.
Men are prone to wink at evils
which, If tolerated for any length of
time, may require heroic efforts to
eXtirpate them. While the Mormons
now declare that they do not prac-
tiee polygamy, there is enough evil
dence to show that the church in
Salt Lake City Is promoting mar
iiagcs which are contrary to law.
The lack of morality in the tenets
Of the cult established by Joseph
Smith cannot be questioned. A cen
fury hence our posterity will wonder
that such an anomalous condition as
that presented by the Mormon church
din Utah could exist in this country.
Between polygamy and the divorce
courts. the stability of the American
home has been, seriously threatened
for some years past. II is to be hoped
that the movement recently inaugur-
atcd by the women who attended the
convention in Philadelphia will bear
the fruit which will he represented

the Constitution of the United States.

Consider the Orphans.

Too often when we see the orphan
children, we give them but a mo-
mentary thought, and jump to the
conclusion they are the descendants
of rough, unworthy and improvident
people, else they would not now be
dependent on public charity. That
conclusion is not true.
In our local orphanage a year or
so ago there were three grand-chil-
dren of the most prominent dentist
of this city in his day. Patrons came
TO him from all the surrounding
country and as there were no rail-
roads then those bounds We're far
more extensive than now. He was
leading member Of the Methodist
church, and esteemed as first class
citizen. Finally the eldest married
a generous man, who took the other
children to raise and live with him.
There are now at the local orphan
age three grandchildren of one of
the Oldest and most prominent law
yers, who practiced at this bar fifty
years ago. He owned a good home,
and was in comfortable circum-
stances. The aunt of these children
married a former president of our
Columbus Female Institute, the pre-
decessor of the /. I. & c. She was
one of the handsomest and most
queenly women of her day. l am
told these children, in appearance,
bearing and temperament, developed
this good lineage.
There is also there a little six year
old girl, said by those in charge to
be sweet and pretty child, who is
the granddaughter of a once very
handsome man, who was the highest
salaried employe of the old merean-
tile firm of Cozart, Humphries &
Billups.
There are other parallel cases
there, no doubt. but unknown to the
writer.
To a careful observer this house
hold of about sixty little, helpless or
appeal to the tenderest and sweetest
impulses of our nature. No stigma
should be cast upon them, whatever
may have been the cause of their
utter and entire dependence. They
are here without any volition of their
own, and illustrate an opportunity to
you to comply with the promise, I'm
asmuch as you have done it unto one
of the least of these, my brethren,
you have done it unto me-
When you kneel at night beside
the cradle of your little one, and gaze
into it's sweet face and caress its little
hand and pray God to shield
it from harm and danger, and give
you strength to toll in the cold win
ter wind and the hot summer sun TO
provide for it, so it may be spared
the trials and hardships you may
have had to pass through, we'll may
you trembIe, for propose and strive as
you may, your little dream of what
store for that child or its children. 1
Hence it is well to "cast bread upon
the waters and consider the orphan.

ladies will give these children an an
nual good dinner. Anything you see
proper to contribute will be thank
fully accepted. There may be de- /
fciency of some items and a surplus |
of others, so it might be we'll to con-
suit with Mrs. Smell, Mrs Parish or 1

needed in that large family, so that |
money handed them would be very /
opportune and desirable.

Sells Two Years Corn Crop.

McGrain, a prominent farmer
has just received a check for
SIP, 800 for the sale of corn, re-
presenting 1900 bushels at
20 cents per bushel. This is
thought to be a record for Iowa
and probably of the west. It
represents part of two years
crops on 400 acres.
