The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1868-03-20

y LAW SrORY.-A few years ago a
couple of Dutchmen, Won Nampt and
Won Bones, lived on friendly terms on
the high hills Of Limestone. At last
they fell out over dog, Won Nampt
killed Won Bones canine companion.
Bones, choosing to assume the killing
TO have been intentional, sued Vampt
for damages. They were called in due
time into court, when the defendant in
the ease was asked by the Judge wheth-
cr he killed the dog,
"pc sure kilt him." said Nampt,
"hut let Bohes prove it."
This being quite satisfactory the plain
tiff in the action was called on to an.
swcr few questions, and among Others
he was asked by the judge at what
amount he estimated the damages. lie
did not well understand the question,
and so, to he little palmer, the judge
inquired what he thought the dog to be
worth
ape sure replied Bones, "the dog
was worth nothing, but since he was so
mean rs to kill him, he shall pay dc
full value of him."
How many suits have occupied the
attention Of courts-how many contests
have engaged the time of the public,
and have been waged with virulence
and invective, having no more worthy
difference than that of Won Nampt and
Won Bone.

HON. JOHN NJ. PHELPS.

Mr.. Editor:
We see from the proceedings OF oul
Delegates to the late State Convention
that the Congressional Convention lor
this District is to be held al Point Plea
SAINT on the 4lh Of July next. Now, in
looking over the list OF candidates
announced 10 come before that Conveu-
ton, we see no name that we think can
make claim to the position Of Congress
man, equal to the mama Of Hon John NJ
Pno'ps, without lisp,raging the cl inns
oil others. We unhesitatingy say that Mr.
Phelps has spenl mora time and money
in laborin3 for the Union cause in this
District than any other man in it, lie,
early in 1861, arrayed himself upon The
side of right and liberty, and single.
handed and alone, met and Yanquished
the cohorts Of treason in Mason county,
thereby saving the county from tic
whirlpool of rebellion. He was one of
the first movers in relation 10 the new
State, ami was the author OF the celebra.

Judge Polsey, which became the basis
Of the reorganlzed government: of Viz
gnia. He was the chief agen! in rails

Ill March, 1888, when he was celled
home to take part in the organization Of
our glorious little West Virginia, which
he did by serving in the Senate for two
terms, and in consideration OF his meri
todous services for the country and
State his fellow Senator's honored him
with the Presidency Of that body. Since
that time he has been engaged in the
practice Of law and has succeeded be.
vOud the most sanguino expectations Of
his warmest friends Ho is a good
speaker as all who have heard him will
acknowledge; and having polilicrl rec.
ord high above all suspicion, he is the
man, above all those mentioned, for the
office, TO be nominated by the great Re
publican party Of this District. We
hope the Convention will honor him
with the nomination, and thus in some
degree pay debt ofgrati!ule due him
from the party.
