TO hErOoLlCANS:

We are anxious to have every
Republican in close touch, and work
ing in harmony with the Republican
National Congressional Committee in
favor Of the election of a Republican
Congress.
The Congressional campaign must
be based on the administrative and
legislative record of the party, and,
that being so, Theodore Roosevclt's
personality must be a central figure
and his achievements a central
thought in the campaign.
We desire to maintain the work Of
his campaign with popular subscrip-
ions Of One Dollar each from Repub-
cans. To each subscriber we will
end the Republican National Cam
naign Text Book and all documents
issued by the COMMITTEES.
Help US achieve q great victory.

HARrJE IN POLITICS.

I T appears that Augustus Hartje, the Pittsburg
a millionaire,-and by the way Pittsburg mil
lonaires seem to be becoming fixed figure in
our industrial and social life-has not attained a
sufficient amount OF unpleasant notoriety. He
has been one Of the chief figures in the notorious
and scandalous divorce case which made one Of
the Western courts reek with filth.
Hartie, it is stated, now has concluded to enter
politics He is backing his cousin for the Re
publican nomination for district attorney, and the
millions Of the wall paper niagnate are to be used
in an endeavor to control the district attorneys
office Of that city
But Hartje may find, as some others have done
before, that millions in dollars do not always get
one everything one may want in political life
There are numerous men throughout the country
who could confirm this to Hartje if he were de-
sirous of obtaining such information. 1t is sus-
pected, however, that the Pittsburger has an
uterior object in attempting to get relative into
the district attorneys office. Sometimes it is Of
high advantage to wealthy man to have rep
resentative in the prosecutors chair,
Since the divorce case it has been stated that
some of the friends Of Harte would be indicted
and might have to stand trial for conspiracy in
was openly announced by the lawyers in the trial
that evidence was manufactured or stolen and
that all the devious tricks Of the profession were
practiced, But, fortunately, Judge who heard
all about it and knew of the methods employed
will decide this case, and it may be regarded as
in safe keeping
Hartje was reputed to be about the, most un-
popular man in Pittsburg during the divorce trial,
If the people know that there is Hartje can
ddate for district attorney seeking their suf-
frages, they may be given the opportunity to ex-
press their opinion Of him at the polls. 1t is
hardly likely that the verdict thus rendered would
be favorable to the wall paper man.

REMARKED WHEN

Census Bureau Reveals Hun
dredS Of Invalid NV
York Papers
CHILDREN ILLEGITIMATE

NEW YORK. Aug 23.-wide intercst
was aroused in legal circles by the prbl''
cation of a discovery made by clerks Of
the United States Census Bureau, that Of
the thousands OF divorce cases granted
5v the defunct Court of Common Pleas
many have been found to be defective
owing to the fact that lawyers failed TO
file with the court final judgments in the
actions.
Although annoying complications could
arise from the fact that scores, and per-
haps hundreds. Of persons have remarked
not knowing that the decress granted t.
them were never made final. it was said
yesterday by prominent lawyers that a
remedy could be found. No one it was
said would be prosecuted for bgamy al
though. technically many persons prob
ably had committed the offense. and no
contests of dover rights or rights under
wills would be undertaken. The difficulty
could be overcome, IL was said, by filing
with the court at the present tine an
order nunc pro tunc-now as then. In
the event of a discovery that there wer'
several hundred defective decrees, it WAS
quite likely it was said, that an enabling
act by the Legislature would be passed
applying 10 the whole lot Of incomplete
cases.
While no estimate Of the number Of de-
fective cases thus far found would be
made by William N. Jarvis. chief OF the
( force from the Census Bureau it was ad-
mit.ed that there doubtless are many
Discoveries up to date lead TO the belle;
that when the records of the Superior
+ Court up to the time Of its discontnu1nce
] in 1896 and Of the Supreme Court since
/ that time, have been inspected, It will be
found that there are more than 200 in
valid divorces. II would be fair assump-
tion. said a weil-known lawyer. that i

day there was much open criticism OF

ment with the court. 1t was hardly con
ceivable it waS said. that any lawyer
I could be ignorant Of the procedure. anC
the inference was drawn that mcst ol

any fear that his or her decree was no

What will be done TO remedy conditions
has not been determined. because there
IS no one 10 take the initiative. No on,
will ever know which DEGREES are IN
valid. unless an official Investigation
should be begun, and that is considere,
improbable. Mr.. Jarvis said he woult
take no official notice Of the flaws In tn,

a note Of the discoveries. and no mentor
will be made OF them in the report which
Mr.. Jarvis will submit in Washington.

Verdict in Libel Suit Of Viola

Publishing Company.
CONTEMPT HEARING BEGUN.
Against Standard Company--Rains
Benefit Some and Injure Others.
Jury iist--Weddings.

ogden, Aug. Gone thousand dollars
was the verdict Of the jury in favor Of
Viola Lewis against the STANDARD Pub
fishing company. as damages resulting
from the publication IN the ogden Stan
dard and Morning Examiner OF certain
libelous articles against Miss Lewis
concerning her good name and charac-
Ter. The case has been on trial dur
ing. the past week before a jury. The
arguments occupied all day yesterday
hy Attys. Richard. Pratt and Skeen for
the prosecution. and r. s. FarnswOrth
for the defendants. Ii was submitted
10 the Jury at o'clock and, after being
OUT almost three hours, they returned
with the verdict Of 81 900 In favor OF
Mss Lewis. who is yet In her teens,
and the action was brought by her
through her guardian ad Item, Peter
Matts0n Neither Mr. Glasmann nor
Frank Francis Of the Publishing COM
pany expected such n verdict, In fact
while the jury was out Mr.. Francis
stated that he did not believe the Jury
would bring In verdict for more than
81 damages,
The attorneys for the prosecution had
expected larger verdict, but felt that
the case was tried by an exceptionally
good lufy. and that even a Verdi,t OF
$1,000 shows clearly that they believed
the articles published 10 be libelous and
that the girls character had been con-
6ideraby damaged by their publications.
otherwise they would not have assessed
her damages at that sum together with
costs Of sun. which will amount TO a
considerable sum. The damages asked
for was $4,000.
There are two more libel suits pend
ing in the court against the Standard
Publishing company, and William Glasr
mann, growing out Of the same occur
renee or publication. The one was
brought by Mrs. Alice Richards. mother
Of Vioa Lewis, and the other by 7. G.
