RESPECTED PARENTS WISH.
And Atlanta Man Surrenders Bride
One Hour After Marriage.

One hour after being married to
Miss Bertha Dickerson, a young soci-
ETY. bud of Atlanta, Ga, Robert A.
Harper, a prominent business man of
that city, surrendered his bride for
ever at the request of his parents.
Only a few persons knew of the
marriage of Harper and Miss DECKER
son, until the story of the divorce
came out, and when the parent OF the
bride asked for annulment of the
marriage on the ground of incompat-
Utility.
Harper testified in order to enable
his bride of an hour to secure a di-
vorce. Harper said that he and Miss
DickersOn loved each other devotedly
and some months ago were secretly
welded Miss Dickerson's parents
in some way learned of the wedding
Immediately and at once summoned
the pair to a conference.
Harper said that at the conference
with the brides parents he learned
things which convinced him that he
and Miss DickerSon ought not to have
married.
1--WE loved each other dovotedly,"
he said, "but | was convinced that it
was for her happiness to give her up
and so l consented to surrender her
one hour after we were married"
Following the testimony of Harper,
Judge Ellis, addressing the jurors,
commended the young man for his
action, stating that he did the wise
thing to yield to the wishes of the
parents and leave his bride before
further entanglements.

Civic League Notes.

Notwithstan dinp the results OF the
efforts OF the CIvic.League are'noticea
BILE in many ways, there is yet a great
work before the League and every
person in Pascagoula. The citizens
have responded readily to The appeal
to clean their premises. The great
thing now Is to keep the streets aud
cutters clean. During these days Of
nigh winds much paper has been
blown around and lodged 10 the gut
tiers. This, OF course, is menace to
health. Flies alight upon the paper,
leaving germs, and thus IL goes sail
Ing, into the gutter In front OF any
ones property. No matter how much
the Civic League and City Council
may do to clean the city they must
have the corporation OF every man,
woman aud child who walks the
streets. There is absolutely no need
of throwing paper where 1t can be
blown Into the street. One little piece
Of paper flying before almost any horse
will brighten him, aud most likely
cause run awav, resulting 10 some
une being killed or injured and the
buggy or wagon broken to pieces.
Don't forget 10 burn all paper and not
throw II into the street.

methods of discriminating against

that the disadvantages to us OF
continuing the treaties exceed the
advantages. We shall not prac-
tice evasions and receptions by
which to Circumvent our rivals
We shall proceed straightfor-
wardly, honorably, exercising our
reserved right, and, in the orderly
procedure provided In the treaties
for their termination, terminate
them"
In a report by the Democratic
minority members of the Com
mittee on Merchant Marine and
Fisheries of the House, on Febru-
airy !, 1904, advocating discrimi-
mating duties, they said:
THE principal argument offered
by its opponents Is that we must
first abrogate over twenty trace
conventions with foreign nations,
and that these nations would re

their ports and against our ex-
ports, especially foodstuffs.
The conventions all contain
provisos that they may be an

their policy OF discriminating du-
ties, and were undismayed by
them.

Friendships Maintained.

During the past hundred years
the United States has concluded
trade treaties, with AZ nations. We
now have such agreements with
twenty different countries. Fiji
teen OF these conventions have
been terminated by twelve foreign
nations.
Their examinations by these
foreign nations have not in the
least disturbed the friendly rela-
lions subsisting between them
and the United States. Nor Is
there, reason to fear reprisals,
retaliations, trade or tariff wars,
that alarmists predict will fol-
low the enforcement of either the
discount section of the tariff or
the termination by the United
States of remaining trade trea-
ties.
The rights of other nations to
terminate treaties are not sumo
rior to the rights of the United
Statesrthe other party to the
treaties-also to terminate them.
Other nations foundit to their in
terest to terminate such treaties.
The United States neither object
ed nor retaliated
Our reasons for abrogating the
remaining treaties are sound and
substantial They stand in the
way of our building up our deep
sea shipping, and their due oh
servance will cost us millions Of
dollars annually. Now that it il
so obviously to our interest to
terminate our trade treaties, 9th
er nations can not object, and
they Will not retaliate. 1t is no
act of bad faith for the United
states to exercise a right 1t re-
serves, in entering into these
trade treaties, to terminate them.
Treaties Disastrous.
Provision was inserted in each
treaty defining the procedure bv
which either party could termI-
nate 1t. If we conform to tina
prescribed procedure we dis
charge in full all our obligations.
Trade treaties are mere instru-
ments providing for reciprocal
advantages. A dozen nations at
different times found that the
disadvantages to them outweighed
the advantages. They therefore
terminated the treaties, as they
had right to do.
When we began making these
trade treaties, our ships carried
over 30 per cent of our foreign
commerce. Said Daniel Web.
ster, in 1929: We have a com
merce which leaves no sea unex-

is, the abrogation of trade trea-

Most of these treaties provide
that imports in vessels of the

Every year these treaties remain
