views OF GOVERNOR
On Divorce Expressed in a
Letter.

At. a meeting of the Ministerial as
ISOLATION Monday, a letter from Gov
ernor Thomas r. Marshall was read in
which he stated that If ii was not for
the limited time which the legislature
has to attend to the business already
contemplated, he would ask that some
attention be given the divorce prob
lem in Indiana
The governor said that the question
was a serious one and there were sew
eral bad features Of the present laws
which should be eliminated. He de-
clared that his views on the question
were not those with which he was
accredited recently. He said he had
no desire to rap" the local associae
ton but instead appreciated the sug-
gestions made. However. just at pre-
sent he sees no possibility for the
matter being considered at the coming
session Of the legislature.
The Rev. S. r. Lyons read a paper
on the subject, The Bible as Litera-
ture." He placed it above all other
works for literary value, considering
the Bible from this viewpoint alone.

Republicans have never ceased to de-
nounce the Wilson law as a free
trade measure. By their fruit We
shall know them. Doubtless it is
true that the tariff, as the late Gen
eral Hancock incautiOusly remarked
is largely a local matter. That is to
say, there are many Democrats who
believe that as they are compelled to
pay heavy tax upon all they buy
there should be some compensation
in the way of a tax OH what they sell.
No doubt the Florida Democrats are
reconciled to the protection of or
anges and Louisiana Democrats to the
protection of raw sugar, and cotton
factory Democrats are in favor of the
protection of cotton fabrics
But this is not the kind of protec-
ton the Republicans have been espe-
cially interested in. They grant it in
their laws for the sake of consistency
and to gather a vote in the Senate
here and there-a Democratic vote
sometimes. The protection that the
Republican party has been most zeal
GUS for is the kind that enriches, not
communities, but individuals. 1t has
been more interested in the individ-
uals who owned steel stock and sugar
refinery stock and in those protected
individuals or industries that contri-
buted to the campaign fund-sub-

EDITORIAL NOTES
BY j. @. WATSON

The amount of our national expenditures,
as authorized by Congress for the ensuing
year. amounted to $1.09S 100000, which is
nearly one per cent. of our entire national
wealth.
When we stop to think that this is one
third OF the entire output of all our gold
mines in one hundred and twenty years, we
can oct some idea Of what our Congressman
are doing with the peoples money.
First comes the great amount that we are
spending on account of wars past and wars to
come-that IS wars that we are preparing for
to give j. p. Morgan & Co. strong foothold
in the East, where our Diplomatic and Con-
sular agents are working to build up Morgan
& Cos. business
OF course the preparation for these wars is
only bluff aimed at Japan, but it calls for
battleships ranging in cost from Sl2,O00,0O0
to $lS,OO0O0O Just the same, and here Morgan
& Co. get another grab at the peoples money
through the Steel Trusts furnishing the ma
terial for the battlieships.
And it goes down the line to the
wasting of $500, 100000 per year at Washing
ton in the running of the government.
This $300OO0,OO0 year waste. according
to reliable figures, amounts to S16.66 to every
American family each year, so, bringing it
nearer home, you can see ust what it is cost
ing you.
Our crop of 2,66S, 651 900 bushels
would not more than pay this annual ex-
penditure of 81 ,O9S 100000 and if we were to
turn over our wheat crop of 6646O2, 900
