German American Voice
Regarding the Great War

suit England and therefore Germany
mad to be overcome, England was
afraid to undertake this task alone and
so she made arrangements with other
powers to help fight Germany. They
are at this job now for almost a wear
and | am sure the allies found out bv
this time that they are having bigger
job on hand than they expected and the
writer of this, with millions of other
right thinking people, has very good
hope that righteousness will prevail.
Germany cGn not be crushed and even if
she would nave to lie down while. on
account of the many that have jumped
upon her, she would lie down with hon.
or and soon the German spirit would
rise again and create q better and more
glorious Germany.
what surprises me ana millions of
other American citizens is not the fact
tnat Germany was forced into this war
and that she has fought her enemies so
successfully so far. We can see reasons
for that. But what we acn not under.
stand is that tine American press and
public was and is yet, in general, so
strong against Germany 1t is because
the Germans went into and through
neutral" Belgium. But don't YOU
know that Belgium never was neutral

 Although the annual town election is but ten days off, politics in Plain vile is comparatively quiet and the indications are that thfre will be but little stir, except perhaps on the license question, until election day. Although there are three candidates in the field for gelectman, there is already a sign e a campaign, George s. Babcock, who is running indepen- dently, having nominated himself af- ter his defeat at the republican cau- GUS, seemingly having the floor to himself
 Republicans look forward to Se- lectman Johnsons reelection by a substantial plurality. They seeming ly are not alarmed over MT. Babcock's decision to make a lone fight for the place. One of the G. o. P. leaders estimates that the present clerk of the board will not get over twenty five votes,
 
 inee, also appears confident of elec- tion. He predicts that Babcock will not get more than a dozen votes.
 Babcock himself does not concur in the views of his opponents He claims he has been promised sup port from many members of both parties and he expects thGS he will at least get a place on the board.
 The other offices as usual are practically conceded to the republi- cans with the usual majorities.
 The license fight again promises to be close. The liquor dealers predict that the town will remain wet" the temperance advocates making con- trary claims.
 A furry in the political situation is looked for tomorrow when the select en meet to make voters. There are ninety-nine names on the list ito be made" and it is expected there will be considerable activity among the party leaders, and the licenses and mo- license workers as we'll.
 Simpson Will Accept
 Friends of Selectman ". J. Simp- son state that he will accept the re- pubIican nomination for assessor and will support the G. O. P. at the elec- tion. Mr. Simpson was named for the office during his absence from town, the selection making it impossible to name him for selectman, a position

 Goodrich took the stand and told the court that the charges were true He said that he first met Laura Weeks in Laurel park about three weeks ago, in the company of his brother, Charles. He thought it would be fun to "cut Charles out" so , he set out to win the affections of the girl. When Prosecutor Gibney asked him if he knew that he was commit ting bigamy when he took out a marriage license he replied in the af- frmative.
 In summing up Prosecutor Gibney declared Goodrich an inhuman and

What Prosecutor Gibney character ized as the worst case that ever come to his notice, was held in the town court this morning when Arthur Good rich, aged 31 of Wethersfield was put to plea on charge oi bigamy. Goodrich seemed to be slightly deaf and when the prosecuting attorney asked him whether or not he was guilty, he cast an inquisitive glance at his questioner. MT. Gibney then suggested that plea of mot guilty be entered. 5 -...-
 Mrs Annie Goodrich of Wethers- field was the first witness for the state, She stated that the accused tanarried her on March 1, 1901. The couple have had five children, three of whom arc still living. Goodrich would live with her for a few months and then leave her, claimed the wit ness.

 Prosecutor Gibney called Laura Weeks of Hartford, who was found at the Beckley school yesterday. While testifying it was evident that Laura was not in full possession of her sen- , ses. She claimed that she was born on April 9th. 1889, but it was evident from her appearance that she was not over eighteen years old.
