st. Louis.-The house of deputies
of the general convention of the Prot
ed the proposal to embody in its can
ons a provision forbidding its clergy
men to solemnize marriage for per
son divorced from living spouse.
The six hours debate which pre-
ceded the action indicated wide diff
ference of opinion among members of
the church. The recommendation was
contained in the report of joint COM
mittee composed of five bishops, five
clergymen and five laymen, appoint
ed three years ago to study matters
relating to matrimony.
By its action the lower house of
the convention placed in allegiance
for at least three years further con-
sideration of any such amendment.
The present canon provides that a
clergyman of the church may re.
marry the innocent party" to a d.
vorce granted on statutory grounds.
The proposal. however, is pending
in the house of bishops, ~the upper
house, and Will be brought to vote.
Such action will be merely for the
purpose of indicating the attitude of
the bishops, for no change in the can
ons can be made without concurrence
of both houses.

the subjects discussed by II. Il. Stock
bridge, Atlanta, president OF the Farm
ers' National Congress-, at the open
ing session of the thirty-sixth annual
meeting here. In part he said:
I'VE are told by misinformed parties
that the farmer is mere incidental
beneficiary from the general prosper
ity resulting from the foreign war de-
nand for American products. Careful
study. however. shows no justification
for such assertion.
1T is primarily the products of
our soil which have made profits for
our merchants, and have overbur-
dened our transportation facilities.
Those who have argued to the con
trary have simply mistaken effect for
cause.
THE present prosperous condition
of American agriculture is the best
