MAY GIVE BOARD
FUNDS TO RAISE
SWEEPER WAGES
Readvertising Ordi-
nance Would Cost
City $1,000.

Question was raised today whether
the Common Council would be war
ranted in incurrins an additional ex-
pense of $1,000 in readvertising the
tax ordinance in the event of .
change in the figures being made to-
night to help the Board of Works
out of the quandary it is now III
over its refusal to find way to
give the city laborers a living wage.
The board will ask the finance
committee of the Council to add the
$1,000 deducted from the tentative
budget for streets and highways.
Any change will mean readvertising
of the tax ordinance and rereading
of it, which will take an amount Of
time said to be not available under
the law.
1t Is obligatory upon the authori-
ties to submit the passed tax budget
to the County Tax Board before the
first Tuesday in August, or next
Tuesday, so that the tax rate for
the city can be fixed. The officials
cannot anticipate that the tax board
will grant an extension of time, amt
even if such extension was allowed,
5 the time required to advertise and
three readings of the ordinance
would be about a month, or away
beyond any period that possibly
could be sanctioned by the county
tax rate making body.
The legal complications may pre-
vent a change in the budget ana
compel the Board of Works to find
another way out in meeting the de-
mand. Retrenchment may be insist
ed upon by some of the commits
sioners as a solution when the
finance committee and the board
locks horns, which was made cer-
tain by an arrangement the confer
cnce made this morning.
Ready to rub Out" Misunderstanding
promptly upon receipt of special
delivery letter asking for confer
ence of the Board of Works and the
fianance committee of the Common
Council tonight and previous to the
council meeting, at which the tax
budget will be passed, Alexander
Archibald. chairman of the finance
committee, granted the request. BY
return mail he informed the COM
n,issoners that the committeeman
will be on hand to rub out any mis-
understanding or misconception as
to the committees reduction OF
the boards request for s36o,00o for
street expenditures to s345,ooo- The
board claims that the reduction made

possible.
As the amount Topped off is but S15,-
900, it is likely that some one will find
1t difficult tonight to explain just
how the $4,000. which Deputy Chief
James C. Hallock has declared abso-

Drunkenness Causes Trouble.

Drunkenness is a great and long
existing evil. All sorts OF expedi-
ents have been resorted to for pre-
venting it, and the most severe
penalties have been enacted to pre-
vent the manufacture and sale OF
Intoxicating liquors. and yet there
are few, if any, places where the
use and abuse Of liquor have been
successfully prevented. So we have
with us drunkenness as an ever
present evil, and the best so far
done is to pass laws deterrent and
to elevate humanity beyond and
above the drunkard. I believe from
many years Of observation that
drunkenness is on the decline; not
so much from prohibition statutes
as from education and a change in
public opinion from the old Idea
that "the hero of a feast is the last
man up at the table"
So with divorce-the evil can
not be eradicated, perhaps ought
not to be attempted, but 1t can and
certainly ought to be curtalled.
Take the state OF South Carolina,
and there no divorces for any cause
are allowed. It is true that q good
many people move from that state
70 other states and get divorces, but
the fact remains that there are
fewer separations between husband
and wife in that state than in 9th
er states where the facilities for
getting divorce are easy and quick.
Money Origin of Divorce.
Money is a frequent, very fire.
quent, origin of divorce. The edu-
cation Of the people all over the
civilized world increases the desire
for ease and comfort, the desire to
keep up with the procession. and
failure to provide the where withaI

IN the so-called lottery Of marriage.
Instead of bringing his earnings
or his salary home, the husband
alas, too often spends it for drink
or at the gaming table, and this
does authorize a protest from the
wife. But she should not turn from
persuasion and further effort to the
divorce lawyer and the courts
Another frequent cause is that
in this day and generation, our PEG
pie are constantly on the move. The
love Of home-the family nest-the
place where children are born and
ought TO be taught to revere Is all
affected injuriously by change. The
husband goes, he works in other or
many places, he gets weaned from
home, and l have seen many cases
where husbands have sued their
wives for desertion, served the suits
by publication and obtained YER
diets, where, in all probability, the
wife never heard of the suit and
probably was anxiously awaiting
his return to her and his children.
Undefended Divorce Cases.
About 80 per cent of divorce suits
are not defended. In many cases
they are collusive, and if this could
be made to appear, no divorce could
or would be granted. But, under
the statutes of most, il not ali. the
states. such cases proceed ex parte,
nd IN 4hf- Ia
cept in case of adultery, total di-
vorce may be obtained on the I'M
corroborated evidence Of the COM
planning party.
Cruel treatment, so FAR as my OBJ
serVation goes, is by far the great
est ground for divorce. That is
broad and comprehensive term. Our
supreme court has defined crue,
treatment to be the willful infic-
ton of pain, either bodily or men
tai, upon the complaining party, to
the extent OF causing a reasonable
apprehension Of injury to the life.
limb or health Of such complain
ant. This broad charge, and the
discretion left TO the jury or to the
court, backed up by the absence Of
any defense, leaves the question
too much open to sympathy
aroused by the narrowing details
of domestic infelicity, as presented
by the apparently. distressed wife or
the apparently afflicted husband.
Husband Appears Later.
In Georgia It is left to the dis
erection Of the jury to say whether
or not the disabilities Of the de-
PENDANT shall be removed, and gen
orally, in undefended cases, the
plaintiff makes out such a case as
causes the jury to refuse 70 re-
move the disability and allow the
defendant to remarry. For instance
the wife gets on the witness stand
and testifies that the husband is
a brute or a drunkard or a deserter,
the verdict fails to allow him the
right to marry again, and at the
next term of the court he comes in
with petition for the removal OF
his disabilities, and tells his side
of the case. and demonstrates that
his wife was a termagant, and h6
himself so inoffensive, so childlike
and bland that no divorce ought
ever to have been granted to her,
and that he ought to be allowed to
take another chance and get wife
worthy Of his affectionate care and
devotion.
And so with the husband seeking
divorce. When she asks for re-
moval OF her disabilities, she shows
that instead Of deserving him she
was the victim of abandonment by
, him,
