Marriages and divorces in twenty years reveal patterns
Special report from Washington compiles twenty year data 1887 to 1906 showing 12,832,044 marriages and 846,625 divorces nationwide. Georgia recorded 401,258 marriages and 10,401 divorces, with a divorce rate far lower than the national average. Desertion is the leading ground for divorce, while drunkenness is rarely cited. The study notes marriage rates rise in prosperity and fall in recessions, and southern states often exceed national rates.

States Warned by Elihu Root
United States Senator elect Elihu Root warned that if states cede powers to the national government, national power will supplant state power. He urged preserving state authority within constitutional limits and opposed direct election of senators and initiative and referendum. He framed dual dangers: national government overload and erosion of local self government. He cited Hamiltonian nationalism yet defended state powers as essential to federal balance.
