and these currents stir up the dust and

traffic, u . failure and unpopular.
Unlike Nebraska, Alabama only haa
one political party. True, there i .
republican organization for the pur.
pose Of controlling federal patronage
and dividing up the Official positions,
but - . factor in > political contest
the republicans Of Alabama are not
very much in evidence outside Of q
national convention. And owing to
this fact the prohibition movement
does not create friction inside the party
lines. As long rs . candidate wears
the democratic tag in Alabama he
receives the unanimous support Of his
party, whether he be = prohibitionist
or a so-called whisky man." In Ne.
braska, many prohibition republicans
allow such men - Harrison, Darnell
and Thomas to think for them and
vote as the alleged reformers dictate.
The question of candidates ability,
his loyalty to the cardinal principles
of the republican party and his moral
worth as q citizen Is never taken into
consideration by the majority Of pro-
hibitionists. The idea seems to prevail
among the prohibitionists of Nebraska
that if q candidate does not openly
declare himself in favor of county
option now and state wide prohibition
later on, he is an undesirable citizen
and unworthy the confidence Of his
countrymen. Sheldon Vas defeated
by republican prohibitionists voting
for Shallenberger. In the next cam.
paign it Is the expressed determination
of the prohibitionists to vote against
any and every republican candidate -
from governor down to members of the
state legislature-who do not publicly
endorse and advocate what they de-
mand-regardless of what the state
platform shall declare for. IF the
republican prohibitionists obey the
order of Darnell and Thomas a. meek
ly rs they did when they were told to
vote against Sheldon, then the next
state administration will be democratic
and . democrat will succeed Burkett
in the United States senate. In every
northern state where the prohibition
lists have dictated the policy and plat
form of the republican party, the party
has been ultimately defeated, and pro-
hibitionists have gained nothing but
revenge. The one great difference
between . democratic prohibitionist
and a republican prohibitionist is that
the farmer always votes his party
ticket on election day, while the latter
frequently walks up to the ballot box
and assists in electing men Who are not
only opposed to him politically but
have the utmost contempt for him
socially.

THE RISE OF A MAN.


The most dreaded man in England

from Wales. He is the leader of the
most remarkable movement toward
revolution by peaceful means that has
ever taken place in Britain. Altho-
ugh not denounced as . Jack Cade or
. Wat Tyler, he has been sneeringly
alluded to as Robespierre.
This powerful exponent of the trend
of social democracy is now chancellor
of the exchequer. He has reached the
heights Of fame by the toilsome noun
tain road of poverty. Son of Uni
tartan clergyman, who died without
making any provision for his family,
he was brought up as a simple cottag-
er's child on plain and scanty fare.
But insufficient diet did not stifle his
ambition, nor tame his fighting spirit.
When . mere lad he refused to answer

The Hope diamond is generally be-

REASONS FOR DIVORCE.

labor 1t Washington he's established
the fact that divorces are three times
more numerous now than they were q
generation ago, it says:
"What u the trouble? Why u il
that Of every 1000 American men,
women and children ten have been
divorced, and another ten perhaps
have separated from their marital
partners? What is it in the lives of 90
many Of the younger generation Of
Americans that renders them incapa-
bic of matrimonial happiness! Why

days seldom demand or expect obedi.
ence, nor do wives suggest it. The
basis of contemporary American mar.
riage is agreement. When this fails
the parties quit.
Second-Because there are 30 many
more ways than there were q genera
ton ago for a woman to make . living.
Marriage is less important to women
as means of support than it was then.
Third-Because the price of living
is 90 high. Men abandon their wives
in shocking numbers because the job
of maintenance is heavy and they get
tired of it.
Fourth-Because women require
much more and give less than they
did . generation ago. They have been
carefully endowed by law in most
states with rights and privileges prop
er to independence. Their private
fortunes, if they have any, are their
own; their earnings are their own;
they have claim ON their husbands
estates. and a legal right to be sup.
ported by their husbands, but their
legal obligations to their husbands are
few and slight, and difficult, such as
they are, to exact by law.
Fifth-Because distractions have
greatly increased in American life in
. generation. Cheap amusements
abound, electric lights, cheap shows,
cheap newspapers, cheap transporta.
ton. Everybody reads the one.cent
papers, including the advertisements.
The common run of people have more
ideas in their heads, run about more,
want more things and live much more
lives than they did q gen.
Grafton ago.
Sixth-Church influences for the
time being are weaker than they used
to be, and dramatic influences are
more pervasive. Church influences
favor continuity in marriage; dramat.
ic influences favor variety.
There are plenty more reasons, but
six are enough. The wonder is that
in the face of such convincing reasons
as these about nine marriages in every
ten still hold good.-From Life, New
