HERE is a great deal of sentimental drivel inthe T niaudlin press about matrimony, There are heights and depths of passionate expectancy to be scaled or descended into by the soulful few, but, as a witty Frenchman declared, the average man or woman is as little capable of the “grande” passion as of the “grande” opera. The plain, every day fact is that if good people marry good people they will get on together very well, much better than to try to live separate, sterile, lonesome incomplete lives. It is the policy of the law, as it should be the policy .of all societies and organizations of whatever sort existing for the purpose of making things better than they are, and especially the churches; to foster and encourage matrimony. “~The whole theatre of their ministrations is involved in this one word, propinquity. Young men would marry young women and young women would marry young men, quarrel and make up, get their feelings hurt and solaced, suffer little dashes of vinegar and pepper and have their injuries soothed with oil and honey, and so get on together very entertainingly to the end of life if only they were brought together and enabled to get acquainted, Those who are in the social ‘swim do not have to be bothered about, though they are rather less likely, on the whole, to be desirable as companions than those who are not, but there are hundreds of young women who are occupied in the stores and offices of large cities from morning until night all through the week who scarcely get a chance to meet a marriageable man, just as there are hundreds of young men who are at work in shop or counting room all day who rarely ‘meet a young woman who would: make an acceptable helpmate. If opportunity were offered for throwing these young persons together that they might get acquainted it would not ‘be for long that they would trot in Single harness. It is the lack of a social clearing-house that prevents the striking of matrimonial bargains. This term does not imply bargain and.sale,but only an exchange of equivalents. nder the more conventional forms of social life common to Europe and other old countries it is the business of parents to seek companions for their children, but our independent, free and easy, western life has abolished this custom and substituted nothing in its place. This has been a mistake. i Churches that are anxious make them of service to the community life can employ themselves to no better advantage than by enriching the social opportunities of unmarried persons for meeting other unmarried persons. This to the end that some of the superfluous matrimonial raw material may be made into the finished product. ‘ to find something to do to i E off-hand answer to this question is that crime js in IS CRIMINALITY INCREASING? A tog Carroll D. Wright ity we have in this country However, Mr the paramount statistical author, comes to the rescue of the coun_try’s reputation by asserting that such statistics are deceiying. He holds that the apparent increase of criminality is more than accounted for by the addition to the code of crimes. many violations of the law that were not regarded as crimes at a former period of the country’s history. In other words, the statistics on criminality embrace offenses that are wrong because they are prohibited, rather than wrong, within themed “AN ECON. John Brooks, Lately of Carson Prison, Now at Hotel de Walker, Constable McDougald arrived here today from Truckee having a man named John Brooks in custody, who was sentenced to a term of sixty days for petty larceny. The officer had bis prisoner heavily chained, as Brooke is considered to be a “bad man,” having served a five-year term for burglary in the Nevada State Prigon at Carson. It wae at that institution that he 68tablished a reputation for being “real bad,” and upon being discharged from there last Monday the usual admonishments were given to beware of the temptations and snares of a giddy and sinfal world. The man “who had worn the stripes” bade-adieu to scenes bis foot-stéps towards the setting san. To be brief, Brooks landed in Truckee and purloined a carpenter’s tool known as a brace.

The above articles can be bad by selves, what the law designates as “acts malum prohibitum,” instead of “malum per se.” . For instance, a man has a moral right to manufacture and sell whisky, but the revenue laws prohibit his doing so and therefore a conviction for “moonshining” world tend to show an increase of criminality, althou cause prohibited, and not a crime wi murder would be, This is a consideration that has not before been called to!public attention, and it may have a strong qualifying influence upon what otherwise tends to make out rather a bad case against our twentieth century civilization. If the world is not getting better, if the whole American mass is not being uplifted in. morality, as well as in industrial efficiency, and in educational instruction, it is because there is some screw loose somewhere of whose existence the benevolent minded are not fully aware.
