THE DIVORCE LAW

The Divorce Question is again to
the fore. On election day the voters
of the state will be called upon to ex-
press a preference as between two
propositions. the one providing for
no particular change in the law as II
now stands. the other proposing a six
months interlocutory decree clause
The latter proposition goes upon the
ballot as an initiative measure, the
last legislature having declined to
pass it when presented and bearing
the signatures of ten per cent of the
voters of the state. The first named
measure takes ii place before the
people as a substitute measure pro-
posed and advanced by the legisla-
ture. In this connection it is inter
esting and Informative to study the
more important law points concern
ed in the premises. these being set
forth in an interview with Sardls

in law Interpretation. The Summer
field interview follows:
There being present existing
divorce law and a different proposed
divorce law to be voted on by the
people at the ensuing election of

main the law after election, all
voters should carefully inform them

our initiative and referendum con
stitutional provisions and of our
present divorce law in order that
they may vote xtelligently thereon.
When the legislature has regularly
passed law and it has been approx
ed by the Governor and upon refer
endum thereof, the people vote on
the question of whether of not it
shall be repealed, if a majority of all
of the electors voting at the election
vote for its repeal the law thereafter
