IN IVORCE is in essential par
ticulars similar to what is
known in politics as the re
call" and the two can properly
enough be considered as illustrat-
ing each other.
Marriage and election are both
of them to some extent leap in
the dark.
A man never knows the woman
he marries till after he has mar
RED her and the counting days are
over.
Neither does voter know his
candidate till after the canvass is
completed, the polls have been
closed and the elect has gone about
discharging the duties for which
he was chosen
The two kinds of courtship.
therefore-the political and the
matrimonial-requ to be con
Quoted as studiously and thorough
~ as may be. that the unknown
elements in each of the two varie
ties of candidacy may be reduced
TO a minimum, and disappointment
obviated if possible.
1t is unfortunate on the whole
that such a thing as divorce is pos
sible, for while the prohibition of
it would in particular cases work
hardship and injustice the harms
made possible by divorce are in
general seVerer than those that re-
suit from strict monogamy-one
many and one wife apiece.
One resulting harm is that 1t
converts courtship into very much
of an amusement and reduces it to
the low grade of matrimonial
experiment, the lover-that is TO
say the man who imagines himself
a Overwhelming himself, in view
of the uncertainties of the ulti-
mate outcome, by the reflection
that if the first wife proves dis
appointing he has learned enough
by his first trial to make follow
ing experiment more probably sue
cessful.
With the matrimonial door thus
widely and variously open, his
courtship becomes an easy going
affair, and in this way careless
courtship engenders divorce and
facility of divorce engenders care
less courtship.
A necessary result of all of which
is that marriage ceases to be a
human. q dignified or a molly thing.
The recall in politics is all the
way through the exact parallel of
this.
1t renders an electoral canvass
merely an experiment, and be-
cause felt to be an experiment, and
to be an experiment that can easily

The Recall as Parallel
to Divorce
and
Capital and the Labor
Unions -
Written For The Georgian
By the Rev. DR.. c. H. Parkhurst

enough be tried over again, II the
first one fails, is dealt with only
semi seriously and with no anxious
concern as to whether it turn out
well or i'll.
Ii converts into play the most
serious of all civic functions. and
in proportion as the Office to be
filled is more critical and respon-
sible-like position upon the
bench for example-the greater
the dignity and the graver the
belittlement that is practiced.
If one will read the sixth plank
of the Rochester platform. and in
every case when the word recall
occurs viii substitute divorce
(along with one or two minor
changes), it will be found how
nearly alike the two vices are ana
how closely resembling each other
are the results Of the two vices
also how earnest and critical a
truth it is that in both domestic
and civic matters the Fundamental
consideration is that candidates
shall be soberIy elected rather than
carelessIy elected and then cash
tered"
Although claiming that working
men should have secured to them
the right of unionizing themselves,
yet that right, like all rights, in
wolves certain obligations, and OBJ
legations which Workingmen do not
always discharge, and their failure
in this particular is one of the rea-
sons for the prejudice which CAPT
talists have against unions
Capital organizes itself and by
act of incorporation legally COM
mits itself to the fulfillment Of its
corporate enga gements.
\ union, unincorporated enters
into compact with capital, OBJ
serves its contract so long as it ap-
pears to be to its advantage to do
so, and then is legally free to re-
pudiate its covenant.
OF course. it is morally holden,
but being morally holden does not
render 1t legally accounta BILE, and
if the union is destitute Of moral
respect for it's pledge, capital can
have no redress.
That puts in the hands of union
lied labor an advantage not pos
sessed by the other party to the
contract.
We are not saying that unions
generally will avail of this advan-
tage, but they do sometimes, just
as we are learning at the present
moment: and every time they do
they hurt themselves and their
cause.
Men who have not the conscience
to deal on the square should so
have the leash of the law thrown
deal on the square.
That is what law is for-to bold
up virtue that is topping.

A Motto Which Involves

There is a motto which involves

Many of the generation which is
