as it does 10 Cecil Chapman, a London
magistrate. who has recommended that
women be placed in the jury box when
divorce cases are on trial
There is no reason why the presence
OF women on divorce juries should add
to the equity OF the decision. said Judge
Halsey 1t is not matter Of who was
TO blame and whether the wife or the
husband did wrong any more than in the
trial Of any other breach Of civil con-
tract.
In the trial Of divorces. marriage Is
regarded as merely a legal matter. The
moral or religious side of it does not ap-
pear il The case al all, so far as the law
is concerned. Neither is It a contest be-
tween a man and a woman. It is merely
a matter OF determining whether or not
the grounds for 6issolving the contrast
can really be designated according TO
those prescribed by the statutes.
There is no desire for delicacy in dl-
vorce matters. Truth must be brought
out, no matter how salacious the facts
may be. and the presence Of women in
the divorce courts would not help matters
any in tending to shame the men. as the
English magistrate urges
There Is only one phase OF a divorce
suit that Is tryable by jury in Wiscon-
sin. and that is the one that must neces-
sarily have the most thorough airing II

and no conscientious woman Juror could
determine this any more accurately than
man.
The religious and moral side OF d.
vorce actions have disappeared with the
termination OF the English Ecclesiastical
Court in 1853.

the pledges of previous Liberal admins

reforms. That some OF these reforms are
necessary is admitted. even by such ultra
conservative statesmen as former Premier
Maura.
Unfortunately. Canalejas neglected 20

atory spirit. the tact. and the diplomacy.
which he displayed in his dealings with
President Mckinley in the early spring Of
1898 at Washington.
He BShsQued matters where he could
have negotiated in a friendly spirit. and
practically precipitated a conflict with
the papacy, which. while II has had the
effect OF bringing many Liberal deserters
back from the Republican camp, has.

rural population all the clergy. the re-
