They Were Welded

The visits of Ford investigators
to the homes Of the plants employees
are bringing into the justice courts
foreign couples who have obtained
licenses from the county clerks Of
fee. but who have neglected the
marriage ceremony.
A man with wife is supposed to
be given preference over single
men. in accepting applications for
jobs. and close check is kept on
all the homes OF the oompany's
workmen.
"At some time or another the in
vcstigators go to the home OF every
employe," declared Justice Felix A.
Lemkie. He has married two such
couples In the last few weeks.
~ demand is always made for
the marriage certificate, and II they
are unable To show IL. the couple
are brought down to the justice
court to be married. In most Of the
cases before me, the people were
more or less illiterate, and didn't
know that a ceremony was neces-
sary.
Andrew Dropek and Paronika Wis.
iarz were married recently. after
living together in blissful Ignorance
of the fact that they were unmar-
ried for almost . year. They have
one child.

Home Rule Of ireland.

Sir Horace Plunkett, in statement cabled
to America. expresses view that has been held
by many Of the best posted friends Of Ireland
that the present disturbance in Parliament will
not seriously affect the home rule bill The speech
Of Lord Landsdowne expressing as il did the SEN
timents Of the opposition, was irritating in the
extreme, and came at time when it was most
embarrassing. Lloyd-George had outlined plan
on which order could be restored and peace con-
served In Ireland and this had the support Of
Carson and Redmond, leaders Of the factions
divided on home rule. That this agreement so
eminently satisfactory to all, at least as an ex-
pedient to bridge over the crisis should be halted
by the utterance Of Tory extremist was disap-
pointing as well as annoying. Remond's indignant
outburst and Healy's fiery haranguc were but
natural expressions Of jealous Irishmen, who
could scarcely have said less under the crcum-
stances
The work Of Lloyd-George will stand, though,
and Asquith's great patience will prevail, to the
end that q measure embodying the compromise
agreement will appear in season, and the Irish
question will be adjusted on basis that will
please all but the rreconcilables s.4.,
