THE COURT

It is little wonder that Justice
Morschauser who sat through the
famous Stillman divorce proceedings
is disguised with the tendency to
wreck homes and families. This
was one of the many salacious cases
that have come before him in recent
years where the parties to the suit
were rich and rotten.
He has come in contact with so
much human frailty, witnessed so
many wrong and corrupt efforts on
the part of husbands and wives to
secure separation that he has
reached the conclusion that the
whole institution of divorce is wrong
and must be abolished.
The judge is sound in his opin-
ion. Divorce is not only an evil.
it is a menac to civilization. 1t is
rapidly wrecking the most sacred in
stitution of the country-the home.
The most civilizing and upbuilding
force for good citizenship we have.
The place from which most Of the
good emanates and little of the bad.
The great safety-valve of American
society.
Directly traceable to the wreck
ing of the home are many of the
evils of the day. The license OF the
people, the flouting of the law, the
destruction of ideals, the spurning
OF religion, lack of interest in the
churches. With the restraints, safe
guards and responsibilities gone the
tendency is altogether in the oppo-
site direction from the wholesome
moral influences inculcated IN the
home.
When society reaches the point
that the number of marriages and
divorces about balance each other,
there is something wrong with So
ciety. The situation has been OK
cused upon the ground that it is the
result of a "wave" and that it would
later pass. The wave" does not
pass. 1t is steadily gaining force.
The divorce courts are clogged with
applications for separation and the
marriage license clerks stand about
in idleness. While no one insists
upon cats and dogs living together.
the insistense should be that there
be no cats and dogs. Or as few as
possible.
If a change has come aver the
family relation it has not been
brough about by the demands of
public opinion, rather can it be
charged to the action of state legis-
latures which have made such a
mess of divorce laws which govern
in their separate commonwealths.
If there were stringent and uni
form laws throughout the states or a
federal law which made for greater
difficulty in ~severing the marital
relation, the present disgrace would
not be upon us.
Justice Morschauser advocates n
federal law and his vast experience
in hearing the complaints of the
dissatisfied, should have great
weigh in any effort to stop the di-
vorce orgy now romping over the
country.

A PUBLIC UTILITY


The Natrona Power Company is a public
utility. Its business is to furnish electrical
current for power, light and heat, and steam
for heating purposes to the residents of this
community. 1t is essentially a Casper institu-
ton for the benefit and convenience of the
people of Casper. Its business is conducted
under certain rules and regulations which are
approved by the public service commission of
the State of Wyoming. These rules and
regulations apply, not only to Natrona Power
Company but to each and every customer the
company has on its lines. These rules must
be reasonable, just and fair. The application
of them must be universal and it is unfair to
the company and the customers alike for one
customer to ask that these rules or any of
them be overlooked in this particular case.
