Brussels. Belgium, June 5.-The
Duke and Duchess OF Orleans can get
along together no longer. For many
years IL has been known that the
duchess was tired OF her husband.
Now at last she has sued for separ-
alton, alimony and the restitution OF
large sums which, she affirms. she
has advanced the duke, who is the
French pretender.
II would not seem that the duchess
should have much trouble in gaining
a divorce. The dukes private life
has been Just one scandal after an
other. Shortly after he attained his
majority he was sued by the husband
Of an Australian prima donna, who al
legged that the duke had alienated his
wife's affections. According 10 the
Etcries current al the time the duke
fell in love with the singer in London
and followed her through severa. coun-
tries disguised as her valet.
This was but one OF the escapades
traced TO the duke since he attained
his majority in 1890. Because CT his
objectionable personal conduct and by
reason of his intrigues against the
French government. he was warned
out CT nearly every country Of Europe

king Of Italy were tho first 70 refuse 10

instruction to the deacons and bishops taz-
eng 1t for granted that they qOiH ozaoays be
married men.
Paul admonishes the Christian priests to
refrain from having more than one wife at
time.
This would seem to imply that Paul knew
that the average deacon and bishop would
need at least one.
Paul tells the deacon how to behave and
how to make his wife behave, and how to
make his children behave.
Would Paul have gone to all that trouble,
IT the founders of Christianity meant to for
bid marriage as an unclean thing?
1t took the Popes nearly 400 years to dis
cover that priests ought not to have wives
Not until the Popes ordered the priests to
Qu't marrying, acere the comvents filled TO

These young women were penned up in the
converts, and the priests aoere the only men

TIE JEFFERSONIAN

In 1912, The Methodist Episcopal Church
of New York published book entitled
"ELLIOTT ON ROMANISN."
A copy of this splendid and scholarly work
came into my hands through my friend
James w. Hill, of Norwood, Ga.
On page 400 of Vol. H., you will find this
terrible passage:
''Udalric, Bishop of Augusta, who wrote
letter to Pope Nicholas l., in which he says
concerning Pope Gregory the Great, who
reigned in Cos, that Gregory the Great, by
his decree, deprived priests of their wives;
when, shortly after, he commanded that some
fish be caught from the fish ponds, the fishers,
instead of fish, found the heads Of sac hbous-
and infants that had BEEN droa0ned IN the
pond.
When Gregory ascertained that the infants
thus Titled ooere born from the concealed for
mlcati0ns and aduzte1ies Of the priests, he
forthwith recalled his decree, and purged the
sin with worthy fruits of re pentance, extoll-

for mailing a Latin quotation from
a Catholic book, which has been
mailed in this country for years, both
in Latin and English, we must stand
by him. Every Protestant in the
world should aid him in fighting the
greatest monster that has ever men
aced nations life. He is working
to keep this republic free from
church influence. He has told moth
ing but the truth, or he would have
been punished for libel. He is the
one man in all America who would
make brave and unselfish presi-
dent. We regard him as the greatest
man that this nation has ever pro-
duced. AS an historian he is one
of the best that has ever lived. He
has the rare faculty of identifying
facts, and giving a romantic interest
to everything he writes. And yet his
books are the most instructive thai
we have ever read. He is the Ma
caulay Of America. Tom Watson is
the best type of the Southern gentle
man, and reminos us of mat class of
our citizens which Disraeli pro-
nounced the finest gentleman the
world ever saw. Like those men Of
former times he puts principle and
duty ahead of money gathering.
Protestants Of America, let us stand
by him, and thus show our apprecia-
ton Of the great work that he has
done and is dong for human liberty.

AS A FLORIDA EDITOR VIEWS IT.

AS the time approaches for the
trial of Hon. Thos. E. Watson, every
one who understands the noble fight
that he is making, and hats made, for
the rights of man, feels an unseIfsh
sympathy for him. Never in the his
tory of the world has any other man
put up the fight that he has for hu-
man liberty. Abused and prosecuted
by the plunderbund element of our
land, and neglected by those for
whom he has sacrificed so much, he
has given his time and money
to expose the greatest evil that
has ever menaced people and
nation. He has been brave where
other men would have fallen
by the wayside. He has been
true where others would have be-
trayed. Knowing that his life is en-
dangered by the Jesuit order, yet he
defies them, and goes on. If he

ROUTING THE BLACK HAND.

After years of futile striving, the
New York police department has at
last made a start toward Kidding the
city Of the iniquitOus and defiant
Black Hand. Six arrests have already
been made, and confessions have
been obtained duplicating about 40
men in the bomb, outrages which
have brought about reign of terror
among the Italians of New York city.
1t has been common gossip in
New York for years, and the police
heads themselves have corrObOrated
it, that the Italian districts have been
paTceled off among certain Black
Hand leaders who have been author
lied to levy tribute. The Italians
have been yielding to this criminal
taxation because they preferred pow
erty to death.
Possibly there has never been a
Well-def1ned Black Hand organiza-
ton in New York. 1t may be true,
as some Of the authorities suggest,
that little groups Of criminals work
ing separately simply use the title
because it's potency among the Ital-
ians is now established.
Certain it is, however, that there
has been for many years in New
York an organized campaign of
Matchmaking bewildered foreigners.
The men who have been demanding
tribute have grown SO powerful that
when arrested it is almost impossible
to get their victims to testify against
them.
The whole trouble has been that
the police department has never been
able to prove to the Italians that they
would be protected if they testified.

ing the apostolic command, 1T IS better to
marry than to be the occasion Of death.'"
Has human nature changed?
Has the nature of human priests changed?
Have we any right to doubt the sworn
testimony of these escaped nuns, when that
testimony corroborates history, and is exactly
consistent with human nature?
Have we any right to believe the denials of
the bachelor priests when those denials con-
tradict history, and are inconsistent with
human nature?
Let the priests marry! Let the nuns
marry!
A man who loves his wife, his children and
home can be a better servant of God, than a
bachelor who has no human ties and whose
natural passions force him to lead double
life.
A nun can do all the good works COM
manded by Religion and Charity, without
being put under lock and key in dungeon
like convent.

The criminals have seemed to be
more powerful than the police. The
exploding of bombs and the destruc-
ton of residences and buildings where
the victims lived has so terrorized
the victims that resistance has
ceased.
Now, however, the New York DO
lice have made a start which may

LIBEL CASE IN

Former Publisher Of Good.

Especial to the Tribune)

McCLUSKY, Marc" PA libel
case growing out of the 1912 cam.
paisn in Sheridan county came up in
district court here on Monday. This
is a case In which former county judge
l.. A. Cunning sued w. j. Burt, form
erly of the Goodrich Citizen, for Sian
der, demanding damager in the sum
Of $1,000. The %quil-pusher from Good
rich, who now Yields the weapon at
the guardian, used such expressions
as drunken sot' etc, in a writeup
in his paper of the then county judge
who was a candidate for reelection.
This the judge resented, bein' kind O.
touchy on this particular subject, and
he felt his feelin's wounded to the
extent of five thousand bones. Hence
the suit. The outcome of it was that
the court instructed the jury to bring
in a verdict for the defendant, which
it did. 1t was not .show1 in the testi-
mony that Bur- had any reasons for
the alleged libel-the verdict was di.
rected on some technical grounds.
Andreas Braunberger. the farmer
who was found guilty Of assault with
a dangerous weapon. was sentenced
by the court to Imprisonment at hard
labor in the peni:entiary at Bismarck
for the period of one year. He is now
in Jail here and will be taken to the
pen by Sheriff Schaeifer some time
this week.
The case Of Henry S%tradinger vs..

by one Ole c. Welton to john SkOgmo
to secure the payment Of a note, which
not and mortgage had been legally
acquired by the bank. Mr.. Dunning
claims he bot the property involved,
being a pair Of horses, from Ole c.

The mortgage in question was filed

claims that he searched the records

of the note and mortgage, in Febru.

and instituted proceedings to recover

diligence searched the records, having
known the man only by the name OF
Ole C. Velton, having purchased the
horses from him by that name and
having acted in good faith in the
transaction and at all times since.
The bank contends inasmuch as their
