An Interesting Case to Manufacturers of
of Machinery.
The federal court was occuied Satur
asy in hearing argument on demurrers,
ted by defendant, in the case 1. C. Davis
rs. Nichols, Sheppard & Co., of Battle
Creek, Michigan. Plaintiff is a farmer
Of Denton county, and alleged in his Pc
Htiol that in May, 1881, he purchased of
defendant certain machinery to be used
il The threshing of grain, and which de-
iendant was to place in running order.
That the machinery delivered was de-
iscliye, and was not placed properly in
running order, by reason of which it
burst, and piece of iron broke plain
nf's skull, whereby he claimed dam
sges in the sum of $4,000. The propo-
sltlon involved in defendants demurrer
Was, that pl8indff could not recover
damages, because no such damages
could reasonably have been in the con-
temptation of either party when said
contract was made, and that the dam
ages claimed were too remote. Judge
Mccormick took the question under
sdvisement, and Yesterday rendered
bis decision, sustaining the de-
mutrer, the effect of which was
10 dismiss the plaintiffs case
as it then stood. The defendant
thereupon obtained leave and filed a
trial amendment, charging false and
fraudulent representations in the sale
and delivery on the part of defendant,
and the case was then continued to the
Nay term OF the court, to be tried on
this special issue. Messrs. Ball IL Me-
Cart, of Fort Worth, represented the
plaintiff, and Philip Lindsley, ESQ. of
the law firm of Lindsey q Bradford, of
this city, the defendant. The case has
excited considerable interest among
dealers in machinery, and the final re-,
suit of the litigation will be closely
watched.

OUTLOOK AND OPPORTUNITY.

In 1884 the population of this county was
$500; its area is also 800, giving each in
habitant q square mile in which to spread
himself New England, on a soil far less
arabic, with little variety of produce or oc-
cupation, with an extreme and suddenly
ohangeable climate, supports III people to

any settlers came into the county, and as
we have never been advertised when COM
pared with southern California, and have
no railroad connections, we are pardonably
proud that we are receiving moro of the
late recurring tide of immigration than any
county bordering on the San joaquin or
Sacramento rivers.
Aside from reasons aforesaid our county
attracts because there are no extensive
tracts of land kept out of market by specu-

Pioneers came into this country merely

knew. Horses cattle sheep, Angora goats
find frequent streams, rich native grass,
wide range, long. cool summers. short mild
winters, raise themselves and carry their
own value to market Other exports are
wool, fowls, barley, cheese, butter, hides
dry and fresh fruits. Grown on foothills

When there were not a hundred people
all told in the county there came riding IN
from Reno one day a sturdy, good-looking
chap who, for 4 long time was dubbed
"Hullo Young Feller" lie had not quite
s. in his pocket and owed SO for the
bronco and saddle under him. He took
up a valley claim, gradually got mold
Of a few hcsS Of stock, took care
of them. and now is taxed on nine
boys and $4,000 worth of property.
He never thinks it necessary, in reciting his
experiences, TO state whether he paid for
the mustang, as all through upper Califor-
MIA he is called g a mighty square man is
Billy Hudspeth."
In 1865 two young men NETS Red Bluff,
scraped together nearly $4,000 and began
merchandising at Cedarville. One hes led
q life of strict integrity, far rs known. One
took to politics and was sent to the Legs
lature, but afterwards reformed and became
as honest as usual, and both enjoyed
the entire confidence of the COM
munity. In fifteen years they put their
mercantile business in other hands and re-
tired to the more quiet business of bank
ing. Nov they aggregate 100000, and
wherever it is known, the firm name, Cress-
Ter & Bonner, is as good as the greenbacks.
James Hornbeck at Eagleville, Jake
Sharp, Jake Bidner, Jesse heterogeneous,
John Russell, J. b. Whitaker, N. B. Rine,
the Doris brothers, and dozens OF others,
are names of well known rich men who
started with little or nothing. To be sure.
they bought land at Government rates, but
even at private purchase property can al
ways be bought for less in new than in
an old county. 1t is question Of
