RENo's SEALED COMPLAINTS.

Notwithstanding the fact that the Reno
Journal is making belated fight against the
filing of sealed divorce complaints the system
goes merrily on. Friday morning. issue OF that
newspaper contains an article which states that
four "sealed complaints" were filed on the pre-
vous day. Looks as though the jurists and
lawyers in Reno were running this divorce
game to suit themselves. And why not? Reno
wants the business the applicants do not de-
sire publicity. OF course some plan should be
adopted for the benefit of the patronage which
Reno has so consistently sought The north
ern city has felt content to sink the balance
of the state into a oathsome mire. She needs
the filthy lucre that is Forthcoming from the
untying Of marital knots-and what is more IS
getting thence like good purveyor she mast
cater to the wants of her clients.
However, the Journal, in the greatest SIN
certify, is making half-hearted fight against
the system What does that newspaper care
anyway? Had it had the best interest of the
people of this great state at heart it would have
opposed the enactment Of the 'easy" law, It
would have taken firm stand during the Legs
latve session instead of being subject to the
dictates of the merchants of Reno whose adj
vertisements go towards filing it's columns.
But, the merchants wanted the colony" and

upon Che action of the superintendent OF the

If she had been less distinguished by birth
and education, there probably would have been
protests and apology. The mere fact
that she was earning her own living would have
been sufficient to close the doors of the snObs

her behalf
