DIVORCE LAWS

The decision of New York Judge
some days ago, holding that a divorce
granted In Virginia to a vile who
brought suit against her husband,
who was a nonresident of the State,
upon an order OF publication, had
no binding effect outside OF Virginia,
has revived the discussion OF having
some uniform divorce laws among
the States. The Washington Post
declares that "to the mind of a
lsyman there seems to be
no need OF any concerted action by
the State Legislatures in order to
correct the evil. - There il a rem
edy and that remedy appears to be
purely resident in the powers of the
Federal Congress. Section l of Ar
ticle Nv OF the Constitution of the
United States declares:
"Full faith and credit shall be given
In each State to the public acts,
records and judicial proceeding. Of
every other State. And the Congress
may by general laws prescribe the
manner in which such acts, records,
and proceedings shall be proved and
the effect thereof
The Post holds that this section
oil the Constitution endows congress
with the power to so legislate that a
judicial decree binding in one State
shall be binding in another. We
doubt the soundness OF our contem-
porary's reasoning.
These cases have been decided up
on the question of Jurisdiction. In
other words, the State court enter
Ing the decree did not have iurisdic-
ton OF the person OF the defendant
when the decree was entered, nor
could it get jurisdiction so long as
he remained outside OF the State
where the decree was entered. Under
the section OF the Constitution
quoted congress can prescribe the
manner in which judicial proceedings
In one State shall be proved in an
other, but it cannot give a State
Jurisdiction OF a person OF property
outside OF a State.
While the full faith and credit
clause Of the Constitution makes the
Judicial proceedings in one State
binding in every other State, provid-
ing the State court had jurisdl, ton
oil the matter or persons, it docs not
preclude a court OF another State
from going behind the Judgment or
decree and inquiring into the iuris-
diction.

DON'T TIE THEIR HANDS

Now that Pennsylvania has elect
ed an uninstructed delegation to
Denver, to be followed by New York
Democrats in convention. there is
added reason why Virginia should
join the ranks of the uninstructed
States and send a delegation TO the
National Convention untrammeled
by instructions OF any kind. In the
first place, aside from other consid-
erations, it is by no means certain
shat majority of Democrats in
this State favor the nomination of
Mr.. Bryan. Gov. johnson, of Mime
sofa, has an army of friends in this
Commonwealth who believe him to
be the most available candidate
and incidentally it may be remarked
that his friends are getting busy all
over the country. Virginia should
play an important part, not only in
shaping the next national platform,
but in naming the candidates as
well, and this she can't do 81 her dele
gates are sent to Denver with their
hands tied with Instructions to vote
for Mr.. Bryan or anyone else. In
addition there is to be considered
the doubt surrounding the nomina-
ton OF Mr.. Bryan, land despite the re-
ports to the contrary there is a
doubt and there is a growing belief
that some other Democrat has a
good chance to secure the leadership
OF the party in the coming contest.
With New England, New York, Penn
sylvania and several Southern
States unrestricted there is yet a
chance to save the Democracy from
the mistakes Of the last three cam.
paigns. Let Virginia refuse to bind
her delegates at the behest OF Mr..
Bryan's friends or anyone else, but
send them to Denver free to act IN
the best interests OF the Democratic
party.
