HOBSON BLAMES
LIQUOR MEN.

Richmond Pearson Hobson is fight
ing hard to escape passing into an
eclipse. During the past few weeks
he has been delivering addresses IN
Virginia. His hobby is statewide pro-
hibition. He made his appearance In
PRESBYTERIAN Church in Petersburg
a few days ago and made an address
in which he alleged that the liquor in
terests were responsible for his de-
feat in Alabama when he essayed to
hecome a Senator from that State.
While others have attributed Hob
sons setback to the fact that his op"
moment, Mr.. Underwood, was antago-
nistic to President Wilson's stand con-
corning free tolls to American coast
wise ships, and his election was re-
buke to the executive, the great ma
iority attribute the showing down OF
Hobson's pretensions to the TACT tha'
he had the emerity to enter into q
rladitoriai combat with giant, ano
that the outcome was 1neVieaDie Il oi'
the start.
The fact is, the people of Alabama
did not want Hobson as their repre-,
sentative in the Senate OF the onlteo
States and preferred Underwood lot
reasons not only apparent to eheln-
selves but to the entire country lhe
liquor question had nothing to do Win
his defeat nor had the policy of the
President.
When the services of would-ht
public servant are declined, the man
who has come out Second-beSt IN the
conflict is prone to look around t
see why another man / should have
been preferred. There is but one an
swer to the question: thc' people die
not want the loser. 2,
In recent POLITICAL contest in Alex
andria friend of the defeated candl
date has asked the latter how he ex
planned the fact that he emerged tror
the little, end of the horn. The ma
who lost out, very sensibly replied
"Recause a large majority of voter
wanted the other man"
II was SO with Hobson, and thu
should be an end to all argument.

by UnfriendIy Renorts.

|, Richmond, CaIs June 9.-Mrs.
George Burke Simmons, of Winslow,
Ariz., confessed9to the police here to-
day that she had mailed a box of pois-
,oned candy to Mrs. William H. Dagg

men were friends.
The candy was received by Mrs.
Dagg and tasted by her daughters.
They were made violently i'll. A

two pieces were sufficient to cause
death.
Mrs. Simmons was taken to San
Diego last night.
A resolution calling upon all Cath

DON'T GET DIVORCE
BECAUSE OF ROWS
Ethical Society Head Warn,
Wives to Bear with Tyrant
Husbands.

Incompatibility is not a reason for di-
vorce.
This was the text OF the gospel OF
matrimony as preached by Dr.. G. Stanton
Colt head OF the London Ethical Society
yesterday afternoon at the Ethical So
cetv meeting house.
If YOU are merely unhappy YOU ought
not TO have divorce IT, however. your
wife throws a teacup at you. YOU should
fly from her with all haste" said the
divorce teacher.
Holy divorce is based upon objective
causes only. It is never based upon whini
or fancy or mere incompatibility. You
aren't happy? II does you good TO be
unhappy An absolutely compatible mar
riage would be very insipid anyway. A
little flash now and then makes things
more interesting.
II deplore greatly this modern tendency
toward rushing into divorce. Suppose
YOUR husband does seem tyrannlcal and
brutal and heartless. try being Sister
of Charity to him while ne is alive rather
than to some other people after he is
dead.
II ne Is brutal 10 y W IL ~ Oetdnee he
is the victim Of a disease which delights
in torturing the thing II loves. You
wouldn't desert husband who was dying
Of tuberculosis or cancer.
Nobody ever said you had a right to be
estatically happy-except Ellen Key. who
is dear. simple old maid and doesn''
know anything about II.
AS for the present movement to hit al
marital unhappiness through the eugeni'
marriage certificate, that is all nonsense
A physical examination Just before mar
rage doesn't do any good There may %
all sorts Of hereditary tendencies wh!cf
single examination would not dis
cover No, the only way the state car
protect the health OF its future citizens
is through health records kept from th'
moment of birth. These records woult
be public property.
Every girl would know all about th'
family history OF the young man she met
She wouldn't fall in love with some hand
some chap only 10 discover the day be
fore they were wed that he had SOM
hereditary faint"
