Renorse.

Alpena Journal.-The average coun-
ty paper comes out of campaign with
little honor and few friends, however
wisely the editor may resolve to keep
out of the giddy whirl, and act digni-
fed part, yet the opportunities of
friendly candidates and the incessant
bull-ragging of his political opponent
soon wear away patience and Danish
discretion, and in the Wild vernacular
of the woolly west, he turns himself
and his paper loose, starts the mud
pump and becomes bowling lunatic
roarin & around like d lion, seeking
whom he may devour. After the
smoke of battle clears away, the dead
counted, the wounded sent to the hos
pltal and the victors crowned, he sadly
looks over his files and thinks, "what is
all when all is DONE"

The Peoples Problem.

"Ihe Peoples Problem and it's solu-
tlon,' is the title of new book writ
ten and published by VIM. II. Lyon of
Sioux Falls, Dakota, and is believed to
be the first book ever published in the
Territory. 1t is a neat, cloth bound
book of 166 pages, in which the author
defines his position clearly and defends
it forcibly. CHANGING at the table Of
contents our attention is caught by
such sentences as increase of wealth
and poverty Terrible condition of
sewing women Labor saving ma
chinery has not lightened toil". "Disap-
pointing effects Of emancipation" Nec-
essity for employers to pay lowest pos
slble wages, "Goulds and Vanaaffb ii..ss
not to blame" Necessity for pools and
organizations" STRIKES and arbitra
tions," "World trembling on verge of
OF Revolution and we involuntarily
turn the pages to learn the authors
views on such momentous subjects.
Our interest never flags from first to
last. Many of the views are practical
and could he easily executed at the
present time, with great benefit to the
masses, while sotne appear to us too
far in advance of the generation. Rev
olutiohs, to be peaceable, must be
brought about with great care.
THE mills Of the Gods grind slowly"
and it wilt require years, perhaps cen
turtles to bring about the working mans
millennium which Mr.. Lyon portrays.
The book as a whole is worthy of care
tul reading, and we assure our readers
that they will not regret the small pur-
chase price of 75cts. Send to William
Lyon, Sioux Falls, Dakota.

Forty Years In the Court of Chancery-Jarn-
dyce VS.. Jarndyce.

Forty Years In the Court of Chancery-Jarn-
dyce VS.. Jarndyce.
Philadelphia Record.
The laws delays were never more fully exem-
plfed than in the case of the estate of DR..
Zachariah Read, of Mount Holly. N. j., which
has been in the Court OF Chaneery for nearly
forty years, and which has just been settled.
During the long period many of the litigants
and hairs have died, and many of the survivors
despared of ever getting anything from the es-
tate, which is worth nearly quarter of mill
ion of dollars. In many respects the case re-
sembles the famous Jarndyce VS.. Jarndyce suit.
as the direct heirs would die their children re-
newed the contest, hoping that some day the
estate would get out of chancery and be distrib-
uted to those who were legally entitled to it,
DR.. Read, the testator, was a practicng ply
stefan at Mount Holly half century ago. and
part of this litigation was begun prior to his
DEATH but had not progressed far At the time
of his demise the Doctor was executor OF James
Eakin, deceased, of Washington, d. c.. and
letters of administration were granted the Cam
den Safe Deposit and Trust Company. An in
ventory OF the personal property then taken
showed assets to the amount of 1888, 900, which
belonged to several estates, viz: The individual
estate of his wife, Elizabeth G. Read, the sep
arate equitable estate the estate of Juanita Fl.
and Walter George Read, the estate Of James
Eakin and the testator's own estate.
In order to determine the ownership of the
funds that had come into its possession, the
Camden Trust Company filed bill in the Court
of Chancery, and after protracted hearings be-
fore Howard NJ Cooper as special master and
also before the Chancellor. a decision has at
last after all these years, been reached by the
signing of the final DEGREES under which the
funds are now passing to the parties whom the
Chancellor has decided to be the rightful owners.
