 You never heard of any democrats who ever wanted q partisan ticket as loug as there wcre hope of electing a democratic ticket. lt IS only when they are In a hopeless minornity that they talk about rising above party" and tue party they want you t0 rise aoovc,' is always the republican party. The non partisan contrivauce Is geared to work only one way.-AlbuguerGue ! Citizen.
 While granting a divorce to Mrs. Charlotte Coleman Drayton. on the grounds of desertion, at Trenton, New Jersey, the judge iniimated ! that, from the testimony, the de fendant would have been entitled to 6 divorce on the grounds of adultery if he had pressed the chargo at the proper time.
