Abiding to the unsettled question
of a congressional candidate in this
district, the Richmond Gray county,
Democrat speaks as follows:
The clean thing would be for the
Audrain county candidate to with
draw in favor of Judge Robinson. If
ever a county was under obligations
to another, Audrain is under obliga-
tons to Pike. But for Pike Buckner
could not have been renominated for
second and third terms. We believe
that Audrain supports Col. Hutton
simply because he is a county man.
There are times in political affairs
when county pride should be laid
aside If the convention had adopt
ed the rule to lop off the hindmost
candidate the matter could have been
settled, but the delegates we instruct
ed and did not feel at liberty to vote
for such a resolution.

A Stirring Triumph 4!
New York World.

New YORK world.
London, England Especial BY Cable)-
In the suit of the Charles A. Vogeler Co.,
of Baltimore, Maryland, U. 8. A, against
Parrott & Co., of this city, the Court of
Appeal has granted the plaintiffs a per-
petusl Injunction with costs. The action,
which grew out of an alleged infringement
of plaintiffs well known trademark, st.
Jacobs Oil, was originally heard in the
High Court of Justice, where Vice-Chan-
cellor Bacon, without going into the merits
of the case, considered that il was one
that should 60 before the Comptroller of
Trade-Msrks. From this opinion The
Charles A. Vogeler Company appealed,
claiming that they were being injured by
the goods of the defend ants, entitled st.
Dsvids Oil, being mistaken for theirs, and
that while they had taken steps to bring q
case before the Comptroller of Trade
Marks, months would elapse before q de-
cision could be obtained, and as their
business would be injured by such delay,
q restraining order should be granted ut
once. The result of the appeal was that
perpetual injunction was made with costs.
The proceedings before the Comptroller
have been abandoned by the defendants,
and the Baltimore house has thus achieved
q double victory. By the order of the
Court of Appeal, Parrott q Co., and their
agents, are perpetually restrained from
using the the term "St. Davids OIL"
or any similar term, rs well
as the words, "The Great German RENE
dy," and any words or marks similar to
those used BY The Charles A. Vogeler Com
pany in connection with their st. Jacobs
Oil. The progress of this suit has been
watched with interest by the mercantile
and manufacturing community of Great
Britain, where thousands of trade marks of
almost incalculable value are owned. It
was shown by the evidence that plaintiffs
had sold during the past few years, over
seven million bottles of st. Jacobs Oil, and
expended as high as FIVE hundred thousand
dollars in q single year for advertising
the world. Their success In
this suit is regarded with great satisfaction
in business circles. Eminent English and
American legal talent figured in the case.
