AFTER battling all the attempts Of the
Star Reuters to prevent trial, a jury
has at last been empannelled, and the
case is progressing. Mr. Bliss Of coun-
sci for the government, in his opening
argument concluded his analysis of
figures presented from accounts of the
Department with the statement that one
year of Brady's management cost &c.
pa, 1872; contracts to be awarded July
31st Of this year will only cost SO, 1885,
755. The cost per mile had been re-
duced from $1,000 under Brady to S.
50, little more than one-half, under
the present management. This gives a
faint idea of the enormity of the steal
ing. The question is will the conspira-
tors be punished; and will their aiders
and abettors who are hidden from the
light be exposed to public view? Will
Brady & Co., "peach" on their pals?

of the affection of Mrs. Singleton rem
dering her entirely helpless, he is de-
tanned with her at Canton where she
has relatives that he has obtained
leave of absence from his post in Con-

that from the same cause he does not

TIE National Cotton Exchange of
New Orleans has discontinued its regu-
lar monthly acreage and crop reports.
The local exchanges, from which these
reports are obtained, are unreliable and
use their power to advance local inter
ests. If the statisticians of the great
commercial centres were half as relia-
bic as the local exchanges, which get
their information direct from planters,
the market would be in much less dan
ger of being influenced in behalf of any
particular set of men than it now
is. A thousand times better that par
ticular sections should be improperly
benefited than that Wall street should
manipulate crop reports TO the advantage
of spectators only.

NJ. LEVY,
Appeal from the Circuit Court of Holmes
County, Hon. c. II. Campbell Judge.
Judgment was rendered by the Circuit Court
Of Holmes county, on 2Sth Of October 1876, in
favor of Allen, trustee for M. Levy & Co.,
against four persons, Of whom Baker was one.
On January LIST 1917 execution issued on this
Judgment returnable 4th Monday Of March
thereafter. This execution was returned in
dorsed by the Sheriff as levied February 7th,
1877 on certain lands which were described by
numbers. On the 10th ofJanuary 1881, a Ven
al eIpOnGs was Issued commanding the Sheriff
to sell the land, and on the 9TH Of March, 1881,
they were sold under the Usndl and bought by
NJ Levy. The judgment was not enrolled on
the Judgment Roll In July 1871, Allen,
Nugent & Co, took deed of trust from Baker
conveying these lands to secure them for
money advanced, and in February 1919, the
power Of sale contained in the deed of trust
was executed and the benefciaries bought in
the land and ii was conveyed TO them. Levy
brought eiectment, aud Allen, Nugent 4 Co.,
were admitted TO defend. The foregoing facts
were all that were shown on the trial and from
judgment in favor of Levy, this appeal is pros
ecuted.
Gwin Noel, for appellant
NJ. Green and II. S. Hooker, contra.
CAMPBELL, c. j.,
Held
The lien acquired by the execution was lost
by the failure to take any steps TO sell the land
until the 18th ofJanuary, 1881, and the super.
vening rights Of Allen, Nugent & Co., by their
dealings with Baker, with respect to the land,
were superior to the claim Of the judgment
creditor, who delayed to enforce his rights
under the levy of the execution for 50 long a
time as to destroy the continuity Of the lien,
which might have been preserved by pursuing
his rights with the diligence the law requires
in such cases. From such delay an abandon
ment Of the levy is presumed in support Of the
claims Of third persons. Reversed anil EfV
trial granted.

ESSAY ON THE VEST,

The vest is useless article of apparel
worn by man. 1t is an incumbrance
handed down from past generations and
perpetuated only through pure stupidity
In old times it was termed waistcoat."
1t was then veritable coat, intended for
the protection of the body. The regular
coat over it protected only the back and
arms, being entirely away from the breast.
The vest of to-day is a rudimentary gar.
ment. 1t is simply vestige of former
fashion. In summer it would be gladly
dispensed with did people dare to do so. It
adds another thickness for the retention of
animal heat. In winter an additional
thickness of coat would serve the purpose
of the vest. The vest as to use is simply
needless coat without arms. It is
principally useful to tailors, enabling them
to charge for an additional piece of cloth.
Vests always survive other garments. A
man will wear out three coats and four
pairs of trousers to one vest. Such is the
force OF custom that no man would dare
buy suit of clothes without the vest,
though cut and worn in such manner
that the vest is invisible perpetually. As
for vest pockets, they are nuisances. They
become sinkholes for old matches and notes

because she knows where to look for them.
When robbers rob a man they show their
contempt for the vest by not taking it.
They will deprive man of his trousers
and his coat. They leave the vest. OF
what use is man clad only in vest? The
vest is only cause and almost an excuse
for poor. fitting garments. Any man looks
better in buttoned.up coat, la mill
taire. But the vest perpetuates the frock,
double. breasted coat Though why called
double.breasted none can clearly tell, and
the fit of such coat never lasts over two
months, since it depends almost entirely
on the tailor's stiffening and smoothing.
iron. These are stern facts. A bas the
vest. Let US form a society for the aboli.
tion of the vest. The vest is useless even
in charity. Who would give beggar a
vest? 1t would be mockery.l[New York

A SCRAP OF HISTORY.

EDS. RECORD UNION l notice in the Bul-
tetin OF Saturday statement that the debris
plank in the Republican platform was
dropped cut through the efforts of w. H,
Parks. AS a statement of fact, this is sim.
ply and plainly lie. The debris plank was
the pivot of Mr.. Estee's nomination, Al.
vinza Hayward and Hamilton Smith were
Mr.. Estees hackers. They gave votes
enough from the mining counties to give Mr..
Estee the nomination in exchange for votes
enough to strike out all reference to the de.
bris question in the platform. Estee prom.
ised George Cadwalader that if he obtained
control of the organization Committee on
Platform should be appointed which would
report back an unequivocal plank on the de.
bris question, embodyiug the views, opin-
ions and wishes Of the valley people. The
anti-debris people assisted Estee to obtain
control of the Convention. A committee
was appointed, but it refused to report any
resolution satisfactory to the valley people.
Even that was stricken out by virtue of a
trade made by Estee's friends, and on
motion of a leader CT the Estee faction.
As to Parks, l have no desire to
appear as his champion. but it is well known
that he was delegate from Marysville, and
that the delegation to which he belonged
voted solid against striking out the plank.
Mr.. Estee declared to a representative of
the valley interests II. n. Hoag) that what
the valley demanded was "too much" and
wrong" and that the Republican party
could not carry the load of anti.debris. The
Bulletin appears to be trying to relieve Estee
OF his share of the responsibility concerning
the cowardly silence of the Republican plat
form. 1t is either criminally ignorant of the
true state of the facts or is willfully misrep.
resenting them. DELEGATE,

SPECIAL MENTION.

Special attention is called this morning to the dis
play of furniture that readers will recall as made in
the Pavilion by John Breuner of Sixth and streets
in this city, 1t was the attraction during the entire
week. The two parlor sets that drew such unquali.
fled praise, without doubt the chief attraction
and justly drew forth flood Of concentrations on
account Of artistic design beautiful finish and fine
upholstery. z. J. Sparks, of Sheridan, while pass
ing through the Pavilion examining the exhibits
stepped up to the place where Mr. Breuner had his
furniture on exhibition and without parIey, ask ed
the price Of the set finished in silk and plush with
ebony frames. Mr.. Breuner told him what it would
cost him, and the bargain closed at once The
other plrlor set, with mahogony frame and
brocade plush, finished with gold and crimson
trimmings, was purchased by August Hebron,
OF this city. There is no other exhibitor who
can give such practical evidence of the worth and
beauty of goods shown Mr.. Breuners exhibit was

THE RAILROAD PLANK.

EDS. RECORD. UNION: That part of the
Republican platform which refers to railroads
was rushed through the Convention with q
hurrah. the few members who undertook to
oppose it were treated with such hostile i'm.
patience that others who intended to discuss
it concluded not to try to stem the current.
Probably not oae-half of the Convention
really understood what the platform was on
the subject. They assumed it to be all right
because it was made by an anti-railroad COM
nittee, appointed by an anti railroad Presi-
dent. But since the adjournment OF the
Convention people are beginning to feel that
the Republicans In trying to out-do the
Democrats have gone entirely too far, and
have declared principles which cannot be de.
Tended.
The writer of this does not pretend to
thoroughly understand the railroad problem.
He would not undertake to prepare 8
schedule of freights and fares. He does not
know whether or not there are unreasonable
charges made by the railroad companies. But
there is one clause in the platform that must
meet the condemnation of every fair minded
man. No special knowledge Of railroad tusi.
ness is required to see its falsity. 1t is wrong
in principle as applied to any business, and
therefore of course wrong as applied to rail-
road business. 1t is as follows:
Charges for transporting persons and
property should be limited to what is required
to pay the Legitimate expenses Of operating
such railroads, their maintenance in good re-
pair, aud fair interest on their actual
value"
Now, it must be remembered that the Con-
vention resolved against granting any subsi.
dies to railroad companies. 1t seems to be the
settled opiaIon that neither the State nor any
city, town or county shall give any assistance
whatever towards the BUILDING of railroad.
Therefore, whenever hereafter the people of
any section Of the State desire railroad built
they must rely upon inducing private capital
to build it, without any public aid whatever.
Fair interest may be assumed to mean the
usual and current rate Of interest. But the
building Of railroad is hazardous enter.
prise. IL may pay, and it may not. How,
then. can capitalists be induced to withdraw
their money from investments in mortgages
and bends, and other safe securities, sid put
it into railroad scheme, when they may lose
1t all, and when they cannot under any cir
cumstances make more than current interest
Is the hope Of success which leads men to in
vest In all other kinds of enterprises to be
taken away from builders of railroads? Are
they not to have the advantages of ordinary
business principles? REPUBLICAN,.
