the fact that Mr. Dezauehe, who rep

Just what occurred previous to the

Mr. Swords said lie first asked the

After q few parries, Mr. Swords

II Justice to George Glover, the

appeared ii the Shreveport Journal
Of August, as follows
This young man Glover was reared
ii Louisiana and so far ais was brought
to light during his stay here as a Wit
ness IN d liquor case, there was noth-
ing known against his reputation.
True he has brother who Is aeknoW-
lodged to be 3 bad man. The brother
was Yiolator of the prohibition law,
and he killed a fellow convict ID the
Alabama coal mines, but So far az
George aloyer's character IS con-
cefned, nothing was brought out ID
court TO discredit him. And this was
not because Of lack of effort. Theirs
were lots Of people in Shreveport
who announced they would not be-
liav6 George Glover on oath, but
when asked the reason Tor this sort
of statement, invariably were forced
to acknowledge that II was because

Pittsburg, Pa. Aug. Deforest
Leach, Of Moundville, j member Of
the West Virginia Commission to at-
tend the recent National Divorce
Congress at Washington, created 5
furore among the delegates to The
Federation Of Catholic Societies, in
session here, to-day, BY declaring
that Che Catholic idea Of no divorces
was ridiculous, and against all laws
of morality. Mr.. Leach went further
BY declaring that no church was large
enough 10 handle the divorce evil,
and that Catholicism il all wrong
when the followers Of that creed as
sert that a nisnated man and woman
must 90 through life together.
The reply Of AIr. Leach was caused
by q speech delivered at the Catholic
convention By Walter G. Smith of
Philadelphia, chairman Of the COM
mittee Oh resolutions Of the National
Divorce Congress, ii which be de-
clared that the divorce evil could
I not be remedied by uniform divorce
laws, but that absolute divorces mast
be prohibited.
'If Mr. Smith had informed him
self on the divorces evil Mr.. LEACH
said, he never would have made such
/ q statement. Ia New York, where
there is but one cause for absolute
divorce, there is more immortality than
Ein an the rest of the States put to-
gether. If persons il New York are
unable to get divorces there, and have
not the money to GO 10 other States
with more liberal divorce laws. they
simply separate and often forget that
they ever we're bound by the ties Of
matrimony
The experience Of England and
other countries Of the old world proves
that there must be divorce to have
amieahle homes. and it is nonsenst
for the Catholics Of any other church
to say there shall be no divorces
This statement il not made from !
big0ted standpoint, but from tht
broad standpoint of humanity Bis
hops, Episcopal, Methodist, Presby.
terian Of Catholic, may pirate about
the divorce evil. They may combine
and refuse to marry divorced persons
but every move they make in tha
direction simply adds to The crime
between the sexes. The sooner the.
realize that. and the sooner 5hl
States make more liberal divorc
laws, the sooner viii the morality 3
