COURT SURE HIS ACT WILL STAND Say Present Coadttloa of Isasnedlat ad . Indiscriminate' Remarry lag is Wretched and Shftntd Be Changed. Charles B. Dickson was granted a di vorce from Edna T. Dickson by Judge Kennedy In the district court Tuesday. Added to the text of the decree Is a claue which Is new to divorce decree In Ne braska. It reada: "Provided, however, neither party hereto may marry within six montha from this date unleas they marry esch other." 'This brings up an Important 'question In the Intricate laws of divorce, "Hss a Judge Jurisdiction to say that a couple shall not remarry within a certain length of timer Judge Kennedy firmly believes the Judge has such power. . He would favor making the term longer than he did In this case. He believes the parties to a divorce suit should be prohibited from remarrying for from three to 'five year, at least What the Jadge Say. "Under our law," said Judge Kennedy, "a couple may get a divorce her one day and go. across the river to Council Bluffs Immediately and marry again. It Is a wretched state of affairs, and even In ordi nary law procedure It Is, to ssy the least premature. Either party to the suit may appeal. If he or ahe desires, from the de cision of the district court any time within six months, and the upper court may set the decree aside. Now, if one of the par ties ha married again, and the supreme court sets the divorce decree aside, then that party is guilty of bigamy and could be convicted and sent to the penitentiary, "A decision by any Judge may be set aalde by the Judge himself any time within the term of court in which It la given, and thus again the parties who hasten to marry soon after a divorce run risk of the peni tentiary through being convicted of big amy." Judge Kennedy believe the state Is In urgent need of amended divorce laws. He thinks the plan of Judge Frost of Lincoln to give "provisional divorces," that Is, de crees which shaU not take legal effect until a year or two or more after they are given, would be good.
