Churnh and Divorce.

sOUTH OMAHA, March $50 the Ed
itor Of The Bee: In a letter to The Bee.
published this evening, a would-be philos-
opher picks up the Kansas City news as a
pretext for throwing a paper-wad at the
Gibraltar Rock OF the Catholic church.
Not that the church needs any defense.
but realizing that any ecclesiastio would
probably consider 1t beneath his dignity
to take notice of such an epistle, ]. as an
humble, unlettered wife and mother. say
a word, for fear that in xenia Fairchild's
case 1t may become a case Of the blind
leading the blind"
Her letter shows a dense Ignorance Of
the church's teaching with regard to d-
vorce. True, the church never has. and
never will consent to divorce with a per-
mission to remarry. 1t was lnflexible when
the fate Of whole nations trembled in the
balance 1t saw whole nations lost to it's
faith rather than swerve, in one instance
even, from Its teaching on divorce. Henry
VIII could no more move II from the prin-
ciple it has been teaching for twenty CEN
turtles, than could the humblest peasant
in his kingdom.
But-when the conditions of life become
intolerable, 1t does consent to a separation
and separate maintenance, but no re-mar-
rying IL the church should put its stamp
Of approval on tandem polygamy, it would
step down from Its position as an Invaluable
teacher of truth to men. So correct has
been the teachings of the church on these
social questions, that the trend of the best
thought in America today is setting in
with a tidal sweep towards its teachings,
disguise them under whatever name you
will. IT,
Those broad minds that have given years
to the study of the problem Of the per-
petuity Of this glorious republic have come
to a realization Of the fact that II this re-
public is to endure, a decided stand must
be taken against certain destructive forces
-promiscuous divorce, race suicide, an
archistic teaching and a growing disregard
for duly authorized government. What
power has always stood between civilized
government and these dislntegrating forces?
The teachings of the Catholic church have
been most potent. Severe, yes, but the re-
suits justify the severity. If xenia Fair
child will take the trouble to enter any
Catholic church in this city they are open
all day long,, and will pick up a prayer
book and read the chapters headed Duties
OF a Married Man. and Duties Of a Mar
ried Woman" she will find a simple an
ing, to the question: Why is the church
inflexible on divorce? The church teaches
and commands it's married children to live
"in peace" but not lin pieces"
The church still retains both the fifth
the sixth commandments In its Decalogue.

SEED LAW FOR FARMERS
Bogus Seed from the
Market.

About three years ago congress inserted
the following paragraph in the act making
appropriations for the Department Of Agri-
culture:
THE secretary Of agriculture is hereby
directed to obtain in the open market sam
pies OF seeds of grass, clover or alfalfa,
test the same, and II any such seeds are
found to be adulterated or misbranded, or
any seeds OF Canada bluegrass are obtained
under any other name, to publish the result
Of the tests together with the names Of the
persons by whom the seeds were offered
for sale"
That little paragraph probably Is regarded
by most OF the farmers OF this country as
OF more Importance to them than the pure
food bill, over which there is so much stir
these days. The farmer does not have to
worry much about the purity Of his food
most of 1t he produces himself and knows
exactly what It is.
With his forage crops It is different, for
he buys most of his seed for them. For
years he suffered much evaporation and
expense because dodder, meadow fescue
and noxious weeds Of many kinds grew up
where he planted what he supposed was
only clover, alfalfa or some special kind of
grass seed. Moreover, in the seed for
which he paid fancy prices often an excess
sive amount Of inert matter was added by
INSCRIPTIONS dealers, solely to make
weight.
So common was the a~dulteration Of seed
that all efforts Of the farmers to even
check It were futile, until somebody devised
the plan Of giving due publicity to dealers
who deliberately or carelessly sold adulter-
ated or misbranded seed, by having the
government, through the Department OF
Agriculture, ascertain and expose them in
it's official bulletins.
Last year, under the little law which has
been quoted, 1874 samples OF seeds were
purchased and analysed by government
agents. A bulletin just published by the
Department of Agriculture gives the names
and locations Of individuals and firms
found to lay sold adulterated or mis-
