The decision of the Connecticut court will
put QUE Democratic and Mugwump friends
in very painful state of mind. They have
been stating ever since the election in that
State that Judge Morris, the Democratic
candidate, was fairly elected by the people.
and that in refusing to give him certificate
the Republican House was acting In a man.
ner altogether revolutionary and outrage
Gus. The facts of the case, about which we
believe there is no dispute, were simply
these. There were three tickets in the field,
Republican, Democratic and Prohibition.
II the votes for all three candidates were
counted no one had majority, and there
fore there was no election. because the con-
---stltatton Of Connecticut requires majority
to elect. 1t happened that upon all the pro-
hibition tickets the word "for" was printed
before the name of the ofice-thus. "for
Governor" The judges of election saw fit to
regard this word "for" as a distinguishing
mark, and threw out all the prohibition
votes on that ground. With these thrown
out j dge Norris had majority of 26 and
was elected. But the Republicans con-
tended that this word "for" was under the
circumstances in no sense distinguishing
mark. and that the throwing out of the Pro
hibition votes was therefore illegal. and the
Republican House refused to declare Morris
elected The decision of the court virtually
sustains the Republican position. 1t says:
II the regular ballots issued by political party
contain the word "for" before the title OF the
officers thereon named, then it can not be held to
be mark or device" so that the same may be
Identified In such manner as to indicate who might
have cast the same, and. therefore, is not obnox-
ious to that provision. II the regular ballots of
political party omit the word 'for" In the CON
OF the ballots cast. inasmuch as 1t would be a
mark or device by which the same might be
identified, would be Illegal. Each case must be
governed by its own circumstances and be de-
cided as question of fact under the principles
herein stated.
This Is certainly COON sense and as it has
the approval of the highest court of Connec-
ticut 1t must be regarded as good law. In
asmuch as all the Prohibition tickets bore
the word 'for" 1t is tantamount to decision
that all those votes must be counted In
which event there will be no election.
1t has been customary for our Democratic
friends when they have been beaten in the
Courts to attibute 1t to the fact that the court
was made up Of Republicans and they have
derived good deal of consolation from de-
nouncing the court as partizan. But in this
case this resource is denied them for the
justice who wrote the opinion was Demo-
crat.

Remember that most of your ills and sickness

Dr: Mary Putnam jacob OF New York is recog-

sufficient to offset the physical and mental wastes
OF the system In all ages as well as all changes of

News of Interest.
The annual meeting for the election of
borough officers will be held in town hall
next week, Saturday afternoon, November
81. As yet there has been no great inter
est manifested in the matter. Warden
Newton, who has so acceptably filed the
position for the past year, has no desire for
reelection and is anxious to step down
and out. The name of D. @. Porter, q
member of the present board of burgesses,
has been favorably mentioned for the po-
sition of warden and it is more than prob
able that he will be the choice of the dem
ocratic caucus to be held Wednesday even
ing, November 1S. Of the present board
of burgesses F. G. Bartholomew, William
Luby, jr., and II. E. higgins will hold over
and the term of Thomas Kavanagh Thorn
as Kenney and G. G. Thomson expire.
w. j. Morse's term as water commissioner
also expires. The name of Charles J.
Hill is also favorably mentioned for the
position of warden upon citizens or re-
publican ticket. Just what action the
republicans intend to take in regard to
nominating ticket is not known. A Cit
izens' ticket like the one elected last year
would meet with favor among the con-
servative members of both parties.

Henry j. Hatch Brings Suit Against
J.Smith Bodley-Bodley Also Brings
Suit.
A suit for $4,000 damages has been
brought by Henry j. Hatch of this city
against j. Smith Bodley, also>of this city,
both house painters, Hatch charging alien
alton of his wife's affections and undue
intimacy.
The story as reported is as follows: Bod
ley is widower residing at 81 Hallock
street. For some time previous to and up
to within about year of Mrs. Bodley's
death she and Mrs. Hatch were close
friends. About five months ago Mrs.
Hatch left her husband and went to live
with her mother, Mrs. Helen Wallace,
taking her five-yesr-old daughter with her.
Previous to this, however, Bradley had
taken up his abode at Mrs. Wallace's. Mr..
Hatch, believing all was not right, en-
ployed Attorney Charles 81. Bush to look
after his interests. Attorney Bush
advised him to bring suit against
Bodley. The writ was placed in the
hands of Private Detective Brakeman, and
he, with an assistant constable, William
Thompson, went to Bodley's rooms about
1 o'clock Friday morning and served the
writ and attached his body. The deteo-
tive brought Bodley to his own home,
where he kept him until - o'clock
in the morning, after which he took him
to the Office Of Attorney Bush, where it
is said he spent the day until o'clock in
the evening in consequence of his inabili-
ty to procure bonds. Bodley was finally
taken to Jail, where he remained until
Saturday morning, when Mr.. w. ]. At
water was induced to go on his bond for
81 800 and he was released.
1t is also stated that prior to her death
Mrs. Bodley was dissatisfied with the way
affairs were going and being possessed of
some property first made deed of it in
| trust to Mrs. A. NJ. Holmes, wife of the
real estate agent, and finally willed it to
her Internationally. Bodley has brought
suit to obtain. possession of this property
and it is said the case is to be tried this
week. Bodley denies the charge of undue
| intimacy preferred.
