Thus matters stand at the present mo-
ment. Grant Is the central figure. The
Democrats are just strong enough Ia lose.
The Grangers are just weak enough to hold
their own. The Liberals are neither strong
nor weak enough To count except rs ideal
lists. Everything seems to favor Grant.
No matter what is done, it leans Grant

ton liens,

The opinion of the United States Dis
trict Court for the District of Minnesota,
by Nelson, j., holding, where the creditor
OF bankrupt obtains a judgment against
n bankrupt in a State Court before the
bankruptcy proceedings are commenced,
and the sheriff makes levy by virtue of
an execution issued thereon upon suffi.
Gent property to satisfy it, that the court
has no authority to order the property to
be taken out of the hands of the sheriff;
that the lien under the execution is j1rimd
fdcie, valid that the writ being rghtfully
issued, until set aside on account of fraud
or for the reason that IL is in violation of
the bankrupt law, the assignee in bank
ruptcy has no right 10 immediate possess
sion of any of the property seized before
the Judgment is satisfied. Judges Dillon
and Nelson, in the case of Wilson, assignee
of NanderhCof VS.. the City Bank of st.
Paul, decided in 1871, disagreed as to the
effect of a judgment lien against bank
rupt, Judge Dillon holding, under the cir
cunstances in that case, the levy of the
execution did not give valid lien on the
goods of the bankrupt as against the as
signee. Judge Nelson did not concur, but
delivered a separate opinion. Upon u GER
tificate of division of opinion between the
circuit and district judges, the Supreme
Court of the United States sustained the
view of the case taken by Nelson.
