Arbitration for Farmers.


The law favors arbitration is peaceable
and inexpensive mode of settling difficulties.
In many of the States there are statutory
provisions, by which a judgment of the court
may be rendered on the award or finding of
arbtrators, concerning matter duly sub
mitted to them. 1t is almost always possible
to take case out of court and submit it to
referees at any stage of Its progress In the
absence of any statutory provisions, it is al
ways lawful for parties to agree to submit
their differences to arbitrator, and abide by
their decision. The agreement to do so
may be either oral or written, but the
latter is the better way. The form is
not essential, except that the meaning
should be carefully expressed. 1t is custom
airy, in addition to the agreement for the
parties to execute to each other an arbilra-
ton bond, conditioned on each party per-
forming the award given by the arbitrator,
whatever it may be. If the award is prop
erly made it then becomes binding on the
parties.
Arbitration is we'll worth considering by
farmers, who find themselves in dispute
about some simple question OF fact, as. for
instance the amount of damage which AS
breachy cattle have done to BIS corn, or as to
what was the value of AS sheep which were
killed by BIS bad dog. Such questions can
generally be quickly, cheaply and justly set
tied by one or more fair-minded neighbors,
and the expense, delay and aggravation of q
suit in court may thus be avoided.

An Exasperating Waiter.

Last week Austin was crowded with
strangers in attendance on the Demo-

Hence the walters at the hotel were
somewhat pushed, and could not wait
on the guests as promptly as the latter
desired. One of the San Antonio
delegates, after waiting an hour or so,
bawled out,
Here, | only ordered a cup Of cof-
fee, and I've had to wait for nearly an
hour"
