the Seventh congressional district, composed of
the counties of Marion, Shelby and Hancock,
met in the Criminal court room at l o'clock
yesterday afternoon, there being a full repre-
sentation of delegates, besides a large number of
Visiting statesmen" Hon. VIM. Wallace pre-
sided and John 0. Hardesty was chosen secre-
tary. A call of the roll developed the fact
that all the precincts and townships were
represented. Mr.. J. N. Binford, of this city,
placed in nomination Hon. Stanton J. Peelle,
the present incumbent and made motion that
his nomination be by reclamation. In seconding
this motion Michael Cooney, of Shelby county,
made brief speech which aroused much en-
thusasm. He said he was an Irish Catholic,
and four years ago was strong Democrat and
bitterly opposed to Mr.. Peelle, but now he was
Republican and favored him, for his career in
Congress had been such as commended itself to
all thinking men. He promised to use his in
fluence to secure his reelection, and that of the
entire Republican ticket. Mr. Peelles nomina-
ton was made unanimous, with three cheers, and
the convention adjourned after passing resolu
tion offered by Dr. J. w. Hervey condemning the
obtaining of public lands of the government by

ment by the surety of the penalty of the bond
or by legal remedy to give such surety any right
of action against his principal to recover money
paid by the surety on the bond; that payment
of the penalty of the bail bond does not operate
as satisfaction of the crime, but the principal
is still bound to appear, and the only way in
which the surety can hope for relief is by bring
ing the defendant into court. And it has so been
held in England. The English cases say that
there is no contract on the part of the person
bailed to indemnify the person who became bail
for him.

An Imnortant DECISION.

The United States Supreme Court has just de-
cided, in the case of the United States against
Ryder and others, that when prisoner released
on bail forfeits his recognizance by failing to ap
pear, his suretes on the forfeited bail bond can
not recover against the prisoner or his estate the
amount they are compelled to pay by reason of
his default. 1t is held to be against public policy
to surrogate the surety on criminal recogni
zance to the rights of the government upon pay
