make the following statement in ref
erence to two primary petitions which
were protested in my office and to
state once and for all time, fully ana
freely, my position in the matter.
This statement is made because OF
the wild and unfounded yell which Mr..
John Klein, the Progressive leader in
the township, set up in your issues OF
recent date.
The facts and all of the facts are as
follows.

that there could be no mistake.

to those who had filed them with a
statement of the defect. In all there
were about one-quarter of the petit

petitions were corrected and returned

other Defective Petitions.
Among others which were defective
were two filed by Mr.. Klein, one from
the fourth district, nominating Messrs.
Jerolaman, Mitchell. Corliss and Gilby.
and one from the fifth district, nomi-
mating Messrs. Mazza, Reynolds and
Mcguire. Mr. Klein was informed. the
same as others, that his petitions were
defective, and was offered the peti-
tions to take and have them altered
Mr.. Klein refused to change either OF
them, saying he knew whether they
were right or not, and left them as
they were.
This is the one exception referred to,
and the only one. Thereafter, on Au-
gust 81, a gentleman by the name of
Mr.. Beresford came into my Office AMI

society in New York is ascribed the re-

the little village of Pellaro. which lies

The villagers were Mortified to find
the remaining members of her family

Charles Eberhardt, Veteran,
Dead in Rutherford.

RUTHERFORD,, Sept 6.-Charles
Eberhardt drove truck for the r. E.
Dietz Lantern Company, in New York,
for forty years, and on Thursday, when
Eberhardt's funeral takes place in this
village the factory will be closed and
the employees will come to Rutherford
on a special train. For more than
twenty years Eberhardt drove one horse
and they never lost a day in all that
time In 1907 Eberhardt entered the
work horse parade with Charlie, the
horse, in the old horse class. The team
Won hands down that year and again

Then Eberhardt was stricken with
paralysis and had to quit work. His
employers pensioned him and he came
to Rutherford to live. Eberhardt went
over to New York last year on the day
of the work-horse parade and asked
permission to drive Charlie once more.
The third time the two Charles got the
prize, but the exertion was so great
for Eberhardt that he had to take to his

GOVERNOR OF WYOMING
A WOMAN SUFFRAGIST.

ST. PAUL, Sept. 6.--To breathe is
scarcely more natural to Governor b.
B. Brooks, of Wyoming. he says, than
1t is for him to be woman suffragist.
He grew up in woman suffrage atmos-
phere, was elected to office under it
and heartily approves of 1t. He con-
fesses to a mild wonder that any other
State lives without it. 1T is so much
a matter of course with me that l
never think of discussing it," said the
governor. II have never heard any
man in our section point out any flaws
In the system. It works perfectly with
US; we approve it. We see its good
results and we would not know how to
get along without it,
I'm the first place let me say that
nothing can be 30 far from the truth
as the idea that woman suffrage has
the slightest tendency to disrupt the
home. Indeed 1t has the very opposite
effect. AS. result of It politics Ia
talked freely in the family circle and
political questions are settled by in
tclligent discussion"

"Three Twins" which comes to

musical comedy that has been pro-

produced in Chicago and after a run
of five months at the whitney was
taken to the Herald Square theater
New York, where it ran ten months
II Is not often that New York takes
kindly to an attraction that has had
its birth in Chicago but the Three
Twins" was received with open
arms. which stamps it as a high
class attraction.
