The Columbia Life Insurance Compa-
ny has obtained a judgment of $685.
200 against the Life Association of Amer
lea. The state superintendent of insur-
ance has since filed an injunction against
the Life Association. to prevent its dong
any business in the state. The judg-
ment alone is enough to paralyze the
Life Association, which has been strug-
CLING along in an anomalous condition
for a long time. The insured in that
company, of which there are many in
this vicinity, would like above all things
to have the interminable complications
of the company brought to an end. and
to know, positively, whether or not they
have any insurance.

Our republican contemporary, after
attacking the administration of justice
in this county, in two OF its issues, is
forced to give up its position; and in
stead of gracefully acknowledging its
error, dlsingenuously yields the point.
but switches off into fa%ult-iinding with
the apprehension Of criminals. In this
it is no less unfortunate than in its first
blunder, as no county could well have a
more Jealous, active, fearless and con-
scientious sheriff, and he is aided by
jealous officers. not the least Jealous OF
whom is the republican marshal OF this
city. who is a good officer, and always
ready to help. No; it will not do to say
that criminals are not apprehended in
Lafayette county. The records show
that as great a per centage OF thieves
and scoundrels are brought to justice
here. in comparison with the indictments
found and warrants issued, as can rea-
sonably be expected of the very pest Of
ticers, and certainly as great a per cent
age as can be found in other we'll gov
erned counties. The assertion to the
contrary can be made for no good pur-
pose, and is an uncalled for stab at the
prosperity of the county.

A dispatch from Detroit. Mich, dated
October Is. says that the coroner's jury
which held an inquest to determine the
cause of the falling of the grand stand
at the Adrain fair grounds, by which fif-
teen lives were lost and two hundred
and seventy persons injured. rendered a
verdict late Saturday night to the effect
that w. T. Lawrence, owner OF the
stand, Sizer, the architect, E. IL. Arm

of criminal negligence. All but the lat

We suppose there is no community in
which there are not some people, them
selves of the criminal classes, who
would knowingly and gladly harbor
thieves, or help them dispose of their
plumber. Then there are everywhere
people whose ideas of hospitality would
forbid them from betraying a man tenn
porarily their guest. But, on the other
hand, it should be stated in all fairness
that the good people of Jackson and ad-
joining counties are opposed to all vio-
lations of law by whomsoever commit
ted, and that it would be difficult to
find anywhere in the country a locality
where a brave and efficient posse can
sooner be summoned to the aid of the
officers of the law. 1t is much easier to
talk of capturing the Glendale express
robbers than it Is to accomplish it. and
the talk of sending militia companies
after them is simply ridiculous, except
as posses in aid of the sheriffs and mar
shals who are on the alert. This diff
ficulty of apprehension should not. how
ever. bring upon Jackson or the ad-
joining counties the unjust accusation
of lukewarmness in their desire to see
robbers brought to justice.
