Divorce Saits Are Thick.The September and November terms of the district court were nunattily prolific iu divorce cases but the present term is the banner court in Mills county in point of divorces there being fifteen altogether! We should say that one of these, the case of Foglesong vs. Fogle | song is not actually a divorce but only an action for separate maioteunoce but for all practical purposes it ib a divorce j proceeding. But just think of it a I moment—fifteen divorce suits in n small ; county like Mills! If this isn’t demonstrating with a vengeance that marriage is a failure then we cant read the signs | o? the times. If ive can interpret indi-I cations aright, then there must be a i whole lot of domestic infelicity in this I county and from the increase in lioen-| cos there seems to be no probability of j any dimiuuatiou. There were twelve j divorce suits at the September term, i Ihirteeu for the November term and fif-i teou, including tin separate raiiutnn-: anee notion previously referred to, for I the preseut term. To be sure some of j these have been cun tinned from the foregoing session but the majority are now cast's. In eleven of these actio no I the wife is tue pbuutiir while iu the re-' mauling four the husband in the pluiu-' tdl. Following urn the namps f the j parties to the various suits: Nellie M.I Beeson, vs George Beeson; Jacob Bare,! vs Florence Bure; Josiah Leok, vs 1 10 ram a O.
