Candidate Katzenbach Is a Jngf'sr of Fads. Perhaps the Head of Democratic Ticket Has Not Voted

Safely.

ONLY A CREATURE.

The mystery of the nomination of Frank S. Katxenbacb off Trenton as the Democratic candidate for governor has never been explained, although It has been well divined. The originally picked oat as a potty a date was former lodge Francis Childs off Essex. There was no doubt of that. The Idea off bis selection that his record as Judge on the b

of prosecution of troBey

ponies for damages could be used political capital. This did not ent please the trolley Interests, and there

falls to comprehend the difference be-1 tween actually bolding two offices and ! complying with the statutory requirement* which compel him to perform the fpnctlucs of two office*. So far as the suggestions of the gubernatorial candidate to consolidate the motor vehicle department with the I ro»J department is concerned, bis ta-i formation is a* limited aa is hi*.knowledge off the obligations of ex oOcio of-1 0<—bolde**. The motor vehicle depart- j meuL which I* already consolidated I with the cWpsrtmeut of state.

The department of state to the largest, with one exception. In the state government. It already employs a large corps of clerks Its Inmlness to heaviest during the winter months In the corporation and misrellane — - - .

Then came along the Hahn InrenHgatlOD. and when Its dragnet showed np some official Irregularities the hopes of the Democratic lenders awakened. and they felt encouraged to drop Judge Childs and take another candidate. Their next choice was former Orator Martine. and on the night before the convention at Trenton Martine had large majority of the delegates and counted bis nomination sure. But between midnight and the hour when

BISHOP COLEMAN ON DIVORCE An Eminent Episcopal Divine Sets Forth iJis "Views

Bishop Coleman, who was at the Advent not long ago, and who preached such a helpful sermon, always has something forceful to

the flagrant abuse of

divorce, and which is justly claiming the attention of both church and State, to the question "shall we have further legislation with regard to divorced persons." Bishop Coleman has this to say: "I would answer most decidedly, yes ! notwithstanding what is contained in the letters published from two respected laymen of Pennsylvania- In one of these letters written, 1 am constrained to say,

hat of an ipse dixit style,

the statement is made that to reopen the subject at Richmond, would be to emphasize a theory of marriage which is not the theory of the Protestant Episcopal Church. This statement, alluding, of course, to the proposed canon prohibit^ all re-marriages of divorced persons, is open to contradiction on several points. 1 shall tnendon only two of them- In the first place, this church's theory of marriage as containtd in the Prayer
