MRS. HARTJE AGAIN WINS
Pennsylvania Supreme Court Re-
fuses to Reopen Divorce Case.
The Husband Claimed to Have Discov-
cred New Evidence-Pros-
trated by the Good News.

Philadelphia, Nov, 22.-Mrs. Mary
Scott Hartje, who was sued for di-
vorce by her husband, F. Augustus
Hartje, the Pittsburg millionaire, won
a complete victory in the Pennslyva-
MIA superior court here Thursday
when that tribunal affirmed in it's en-
tirety the decision of the Allegheny
county court which refused to grant
Hartie a divorce. The petitions filed
by Hartje's attorneys asking the SUI
perior court to reopen the case on the
ground of newly discovered evidence
were denied The petitions to reopen
the case were based on letters alleged
to have been written by Mrs. Hartje
and Thomas Nadine, the family
coachman who was named as a CO.
respondent by Hartje.
Pit.sburg, Pa, Nov. 22.-Joy over
the decision by the superior court in
Philadelphia Thursday proved too
much for Mrs Mary Scott Martje,
sued for divorce by Augustus Hartje,
the millionaire paper manufacturer,
and Thursday night she was reported
in state of collapse at Ligonier, Pa,
her temporary home since the trial
here.
Mrs. Hartje was called to the tele
phone and without warning told that
the superior court had affirmed the
findings of the lower court and that
she had won a complete victory. She
turned pale and swayed toward
chair, saying: i've won. OH how
happy | am; please send word to my
father.
Then sne broke into hysterical Sob
Ling and sank helplessly to the floor.
Immediately following the receipt
of the decision here, conference was
held by Hartje, his brother, Attorney
edward G. Hartje, and others of his
counsel. Mr.. Hartie refused to make
any comment j. Scott Ferguson, one
of his attorneys, after the conference,
said:
There will be no let up in fighting
this case to a finish. We are taking
steps to appeal to the supreme court
and we are confident of ultimate
victory"

time idea that the officers belong to
the people, and not the offices to the
politicians.
In order to do this, it is necessary
that we choose for our next governor
a man who is not ouly qualified by
public experience to fill the Office with
credit to himself and the state, but
who has been specially trained by his
experience in his own life struggles to
know and to feel the wants and neces.
Sites Of the people and to watch over,
guard and protect their rights against
the incroachmentS of the selfish and
shrewd schemers, who go about the
country seeking whom they may de-
vour or buy. Such a man is the Hon.
orable Earl Brewer; and if the people
| elect him as their governor, they can
| feel assured that he will devote his
whole time aud talent to their service
and to securing for them those things
| which will be to the welfare Of the
whole state and all of the people.

Why Earl Brewer Should Be
Elected Governor.

AT this juncture in the political
history Of Mississippi it is especially
essential that she should choose as
her governor a man who can feel that
he goes into the Office as the chosen
representative Of the great mass of
the people of the state and that he
has been chosen as their sevaut for
the sole purpose of looking after their
interests and the general welfare of
the whole people, free from any spe-
cial orlprivate influences, and untram-
melled by any personal or political
object, whether that object be the
payment of political debts or the pun
iShment of political enemies or the
p~lacating of some click or faction or
class or section: or whether it be the
carrying out of some pet scheme or
theory, or the qualification of some
selfish, personal ambition.
We have already In the past few
yearS, had our fill of factional fights
and political squabbles from which
the general public not only has not
received any benefit, but on the con-
trary has been made to suffer great
loss and injury, because the servants
of the people elected to carry on pub
lie business, have been too busy scram
bling for political pie" or paying po-
litical grudges to properly perform
their public duties. 1t is high time
then that we cut loose from these pol
iticians and political factions, who, in
their zeal for public Office and faction
al sue less, lose sight Of the rights Of
the people, andlimagine that they be-
long to them, and get back to the old

No Whiskey On Election Day.

After the election much is often
said about whiskey having been
used in some parts of the state to
carry elections. Be it said to the
credit of the cit izenship of Gre
NADIA county that no charge OF
this sort is ever preferred against
our people. Aside from its be-
ing a violation Of the civil law, it
is morally wrong to attempt to
shape the result of a ballot by the
use of whiskey and should it be
attempted by anybody at the
coming primary in this county,
and we al get the name of the
party or parties who have a "han-
dy jug" around the corner or hid
away in the wo ids on election
day, we shall let the public know
who they are and see that their
names are handed up to the mex

EVIDENCES OF SATAN.

Every day of our life. we see the
evidences of old satan. He is just as
strong in politics as he is in every
thing else. He has ruled the destiny
of men for generations. He has led
them to crime, theft aud yea, to hell
itself. We see him in the Scurrilous
circulars being scattered over the
State i'm a final effort to defeat that
sterling young Democrat, the cham
pion of the common people, Hon.
Earl Brewer for governor. We see
him in the little one-horse railroad
surgeon at Ollie Branch, who has had a
bad dream and has told it to our
good friend, Mr.. Dixon. of the Green
wood Enterprise, and induced him to
rush into print, denounceing the next
governor of Mississippi as a liar. We
see him in the famous Miles circular,
which is out of date and out of reason,
a fabrication Of the whole cloth, and a
lie as black as midnight. Miles, poor
fellow, is dead long ago and is in a
hotter REGION than ours. Miles was a
criminal of the BLACKLIST hue and was
indicted by a Yalobusha county grand
Jury for buggery and was made to
leave the state. Politics is certainly
at a low-ebb when men will resort to
contempitible methods like these, to
defeat an honest man who has never

Brewer and the Miles Circular.

The traducers of Hon. Earl
Brewer have begun to flood the
country with circulars just on the
eve of the election when they
know he cannot have an opportu-
nifty to be heard. The Miles cir
cular is a fair sample of the meth
DDS of those seeking to blacken
Mr.. Brewers character. His en-
emies see that they cannot defeat
him by fair means and they are
going to try foul methods, but we
believe the people will give them
the rebukc usually given those
who resort to such things. When
we refer to Mr. Brewers "ene-
mics" we do not mean all those
who are not supporting him for
governor. A very large per cent
of the people supporting all the
gubernatorial candidates are gen.
tlemen of the highest type and
would not traduce any man fol-
any purpose under heaven. The
fact about Miles as told US by
