A Divorce Suit.

PERRY, Oklahoma, Jan. 14.-Caspar
w. Whitney, said to be related to w. Z.
Whitney, of New York, has filed suit
in the District Court of Oklahoma. to
set aside his wife's divorce, which was
granted here just one year ago. Mrs.
Annie G. Whitney is from New York
city, belongs to one of the foremost
families there and made great preten'
sions in the best society. The point in
volved in the suit, if gained by the
plaintiff, will set aside hundreds of di-
vorces granted in Oklahoma for the
last FIVE years. In this list are many
people from Chicago, New York and
st. Louis. Whitney's position shows
that Mrs. Annie G. Whitney came
to Oklahoma some time in 1894,
and after a three months stay
sued for divorce, which was granted
two days afterward, and Cd the next
day she left for New York, having
been in the territory only one hundred
days. The husband charges that his
wife obtained her divorce by fraud and
perjury. This will be test case and,
if it is decided in favor of the plaintiff,
as many good lawyers say it will, hun
dreds ofpeople all over the country will
not be divorced who think they are,
and many of them will be guilty Of
bigamy. Mrs. Whitney is very rich and
has married again, and will fight the
case.

SENATOR HILL says every man OF
property has been driven from the
democratic party" The democratic
party always was the poor peoples
party, but that the poor people of the
North and West haven't sense enough
to understand that such is the case, is
proved by the fact that most of them
voted against that party last Novem-
Der, and voted for the plutocratic party.
They already rue the day they did so.

IT WILL make very little real differ
ence whether the arbitration treaty
with Great Britain be ratified or not;
for if the government of either this
country or England wants war with
the other, and be sustained by its sub.
jects, war there will be, treaty or no
treaty. A treaty never yet prevented
war when either one of the parties to it
was bent on fighting.
