—
ANGORA, Feb. 27—Polygamy and
! the harem must disappear from lur
I key, if the recommendations made by
the Turkish parliamentary commission
are adopted by the national assembly.
On the grounds of economy, and be
cause of the growing scarcity of mar
riageable women, members of the
; commission believe that the modern
; Turk should be content with but one
{ wife. They believe that if each man
i were to avail himself of four wives
permitted by the Koran there would
1 not be sufficient women in Turkey to
make possible one wife for every man.
The commission recommends also
! the granting to women of the right to
: divorce, as well as giving them re
j course to the law courts for separa
j tion proceedings, instead of the pres
ent method whereby the husband has
1 only to return the wife’s dowry and
| say “Begone”; and the wife is cast
| adrift.
j These principles in favor of mono
! gamous marriages and modern divorce
j I will be urged by deputies when the
; project comes before the assembly. It
; is certain to meet with determined op
position by pheasants to whom four
. wives, which is the maximum number
j allowed by the Prophet Mohammed,
may be often a source of wealth be
; cause they are all forced to work on
: the farm.
We’ll Say So
i iitj iiiuueui l lu k ui uiu city iinua
| it impossible to maintain such a harem
because he has learned that Turkish
women of the better class are fond of
| exvensive dresses and pretty things,
j Silk stockings for three or four wives
j cost a lot of money. He has also
!j*found that if a man takes more than
one wife, he must take three. Two
!
are impossible, he says, because they
quarrel all th ctime and the husband
is bound to be unhappy; each will ask
him to take her side and there will be
no peace in the home.
But with three wives ,it is explain
ed, there is harmony because the
wives keep their quarreling to them
selves, and if one becomes too strong
the other two will unite against her.
If it does not pay to advertise why
do churches ring their bells every
Sunday morning.
The Juneau Chamber of Commerce
has announced that during the com
ing season only local charities will be
assisted.
MAN WHO FIRED FATAL
SHOTS IN TRAIN IS INSANE
SAN BERNARDINO, Cal., Feb. 2S.
—Belief that William H. Barnett,
53 years old, of Caldwell, Idaho, who
recently shot and killed- Con
ductor Frank Morton and wounded
two others on a Union Pacific pas
senger train near Barstow, is insane,
was expressed tonight by officers
at the county jail. Physicians have
not examined him.
After killing Morton, Barnett shot
and wounded Brakeman Harry Bar
rington and Chris Carlson of Shel
by, Iowa, a passenger. They are not
seriously injured.
Barnett is laboring under the delu
sion that robbers were following him
from Salt Lake City.
“I tried to get away from them by
moving from one coach to another,”:
he said. “I took my money out and
laid it on the seat and said: ‘Take
it but don’t hurt me’.”
Barnett for eighteen years was a
printer at Caldwell. He has a wife
and fou^r children at that place.
Soon after the train left Barstow,
Barnett rose from his seat and shot
Conductor Morton, who was reading
his train orders to Barrington, the
brakeman. Morton was instantly
Idled.. Barnett continued to fire
his pistol and panic ensued in the
car. Constable Tom Williams of
Yermo, a passenger on the train,
rushed at Barnett but he had emp
tied his gun and reached the vesti
bule of the car before the officer
could restrain him.
Morton for many years had been
a conductor on the Salt Lake rail
road and latel the Union Pacific.. He
lived in Los Angeles.
