Answering the query, Why bo many divorces? Life offers six answers: First, because of the decline of authority. Everybody in the country wants to be his own boss, and is so. as far as possible. Nobody wants to obey unless obedience matches inclination. Second, because there are so many more ways than there were a generation ago for a woman to make a living. Third, because the price of living is so high. Men abandon their wives in shocking numbers because tho Job of maintenance is heavy and they get tired of it. Fourth, because women require much more and give less than they did a generation ago. They have been carefully endowed by lav.' In most States with rights and privileges proper to independence. Fifth, because distractions have greatly increased in American life in a generation. Sixth, church influences, for tho time being, are winker than they used to bo, and dramatic influences are more pervasive; church influences favor continuity in marriage; dramatic Influences favor variety. There are plenty more reasons, but six are enough. The wonder is that, in tho face of such convincing reasons as these, about nine marriages in every ten still hold good. All things considered, marriage seems incorrigibly popular even in this rostloss jitul nrmrrnsslvn country. The united state being difficult and expensive to achieve, it in bad business for those who have attained to It to relapse back Into the condition of the untied. The Shelley Legend. Most Englishmen, then frightened by the Terror, thought that Atheism, Republicanism and what we now call Free Love were all symptoms of a ifew kind of wickedness which threatened to destroy society. They were only too glad to make an example of Shelley as a monster in whom all theBe symptoms were united: while ho himself, condemned as consistent In vice, v.aa the more firmly convinced of his consistency In virtue. After his death, when the fears caused by the French Revolution died away and bis music began to enchant the world, the old legend of a Shelley with horns and n tail gave way to a new one of a Shelley with wings and a halo. This has been accepted even by his detractors, and Matthew Arnold made skilful use of ft when he called him a beautiful and ineffectual angel, beating in tho void Ills luminous wings in vain. ...

It's an old trick of the leaders of the Labor Trust to twist facts and make the "sympathetic ones" "weep at the ice house." (That's part of the tale further on.) Compels et al. sneer at, spit upon and defy our courts, seeking sympathy by falsely telling the people the courts were trying to deprive them of free speech and free press. Men can speak freely and print opinions freely in this country and no court will object, but they cannot be allowed to print matter as pint of a criminal conspiracy to injure and ruin other citizens. Gonipers and his trust associates started out to ruin the Bucks Stove Co., drive its hundreds of workmen out of work and destroy the value of mi- |j;;wn wiuuMii regard lo tno lact that liard earned money of men who worked had boon Invested there. The conspirators were told by the courts to stop these vicious "trust" methods (efforts to break the firm that won't come under trust rule), but instead of stopping they "dare" the courts to punish them and demand new laws to protect them in such destructive and tyrannous acts as they may desire to do. * The reason (iompers and bis band persisted in trying to ruin the Bucks Stove Works was because the stove companj insisted on the right to keep isij1111* Ulll em pioyos ill WOI'K WI10I1 "<1?? union" ordered them discharged and Home of "do gang" put in. Now let us reverse tho conditions and have a look. Suppose tho company had ordered tho union to dismiss certain men from their union and, tlie demand being refused, should institute a boycott against that union, publish its name in an "unfair list," instruct other manufacturers all over the United States not to buy the labor of that union, have committees call at stores and threaten to boycott If the merchants sold anything made to that union. i-ickoi ino tactories where members work ami sIuk thorn on Ilio way home, blow up their houses and wreck iIm' works, and ovon murder a few members ot the boycotted union to t**ni'li tin in (boy must obey the orders of "organized Capital?" It would cer;?inly bo fair for the eompan\ t" do hose tilings if lawful for tin- Labor Trust to do them. In nib a rase, under our laws the boycotted union could apply to our court and the courtK would order the eomp.'iin to cease boycotting and trying to i ui 11 these union men.

Then they would pniine the courts and go on earning '? living protected from ruin and happy in the knowledge that the people'g courts could defond them.

Tho paid delegates would applaud and "resolute" as Gompers wanted, but now and then gome of the reul I workingmen insist on being heard, j sometimes at the risk of their lives. ' Delegate Egan is reported to have saifl at the Toronto convention: "If tho olllcers of the federation would only adhere to the law we would think a lot more of them." The Grand Council of the Provincial VVorkingmen's Ass'n of Canada has declared in favor of severing all connection with unions in the U. S., saying "any union having its seat of Gov't in America, and pretending to be International in its scope, must I 11hiii industrial Dames according to' | American methods. Sijid methods i have consequences which are abhorI rent to the law-abiding people of Can| ada involving hunger, misery, riot, bloodshed and murder, all ot which might be termed a result of the practical war now In progress in our fair province and directed by foreign emissaries of the United Miners of America." That is an honest Canadian view of our Infamous "Labor Trust." A few days ago the dally papers printed tho following: (By the Associated Press.) w asmngton, u.c., Nov. 10.?Cliar| ncteri/.ing the attitude of Samuel | (iompers, John Mitchell and Frank I Morrison, of the American Federation | of Labor in the contempt proceedings i in the courts of the District of Columi liia, in connection with tho Bucks ! Stove and Range Company, as "n j willful, premeditated violation of the law," Simon Burns, general master j workman of the general assembly, Knights of Labor, lias vwiced a severe condemnation of these three leaders.

This rebuke by Hums was In his i annual report to the general assembly j of bis organization.

"That his long leadership and this apparent Impossibility to fill bin place has gone to his head, and made him Imagine that he 1h much greater a man than he really Is, is undoubtedly the case, and accounts for the tactics he has adopted in dealing with questions before Congress, where he has unnecessarily antagonized men to whom organized labor must look for recognition of their demands, and where labor measures are often op ijwoi.-u wii uu:uuui in tiiits very anmgonism, which would otherwise recclvo support. "There is no doubt but what organized Inbor in this country would be much stronger with a lender who was more in touch with conditions as they actually exist, and who would bring to the front the new particles which organized labor must adopt if it expects to even maintain ita present standing, to say nothing of making future progress." We QUOte nortiolis of annthor nrtl. cle, a reprint, from tho name labor paper: "Organized labor, through its leaders, miiBt recognize the mistakes of the past if they expect to perpotu?te their organizations or to develop too movement which they -head. No movement, no organization, no nation can develop beyond the Intellects which guide these organizations, and if the leaders are dominated by a selfish motive tho organization will become tinged with a spirit of selilshness, which lias never appealed to mankind in any walk of life at any time since history heimn "It can bo Bald In extenuation of certa/n leaders of organized labor that the procarlouB position which they occupy aw leaders has had a tondency to cause them lo*loso sight of tho object behind the organization. The natural instinct In man for power and position is in no Hmall measure responsible for the mistakes of the leaders, not necessarily in labor unions alone, but in every branch of society. This ufifiru i<?r powoi and leadership and personal aggrandizement causes men who have been earnest and sincere in their efforts in the start to deteriorate into mere politicians whose every act and utterance is tinged with the desire to cater to the lmxer passions of the working majority in the societies or organizations and this Is undoubtedly true when applied to the present lenders of the Federation.
