FAIR WILL BE IN.

We believe it to be positive fact
that lanes G. Fair will be candidate
for reelection to the U. S. Senate. The
informati IN comes from III. les: Of au :
thority, and it may be depended upon
that all the talk about Mr.. Fair not in
tending to ent er the ring is idle, and
done simply for the sake of binding a
few people. Although Mr.. Fair is no
Statesman, nor even faithful servant,
he is a very smooth politician, and he
has in his power many more OF the same
kind Of people. Not day passes but
some of Fairs henchmen are around
picking up points and sounding the
weak spots. They are gaining ground,
too. Fair has money enough not to
miss few thousands thrown away in
the fight, and it is well.known fact
that money will accomplish wonders in
an elecuon. 1t is high time for the
Republicans to be stirring if they are
DESTROYS of success. There are several
pronounced candidates figuring around
now, but the true way is for the whole
party 10 stand in and pull together.
Let there be no wrangling in the matter
and let them be sure and put up the
right man--one who has substantial
backing, also. Let not not the smooth
and oily Democrats get their work in
next Fall.

excursion with a large party Of ladies
and gentlemen VINO were mere IN that
summer, and upon their landing or
Saturday night, Aug. -, Durant was ar
rested and put in Jail. One OF ms friends
at once sought for mis- release. and urged
Mr.. Griswold to become hail for Durants
appearance. MIR. Girls void states that he
understood the bond which he was asked
to give was simply ne eXeat one, but it
is now claimed That the bond was not
only for Durants appearance, but that 1t
obligated GrlswOld TO paw the amount OF
the judgment il Durant did not. A few
months ago the case was entered in the
Circuit Court ny Mr.. Griswold, who asked
that the Hazards be restrained from
bringing a suit against him for the
amounts involved, Durant being dead.
The court dismissed Griswold's appeal
for such restraint upon the Hazards, and
now he comes before the court upon de-
murrers. This bill of complaint which
was dismissed by the court was drawn by
the late Secretary of state Frelinghuysen.
The important demurrers which were
argued we're first, lack OF jurisdiction OF
the State courts for the reason that, ac-
cOrding to the laws of the State OF Rhode
Island st0ckholder cannot MAINTAIN a
suit in law or equity founded on right
of action existing IN the corporation Itself,
anu III HulCu IuS Cul pOl 10 bhC
propriate plaintiff unless there exists a 8
the foundation OF the suit some action or
threatened action Of the managing Board
OF Directors or Trustees which is be-
yOnd the authority conferred on them
by their charter or other source OF Organi-
cation.
The bill also cited other reasons which
might justify a suit which cannot be
claimed by the Hazards. The second de-
murrer was to the effect that the official
Receiver of the Credit Mobilier gave Du-
rant a release from any and all claims
the corporation had against him, and, it
was claimed. that released the bond which
GrIswOld gave. His release was the out
come of a suit brought in the Circuit
Court OF the United States for the Eastern
District of Pennsylvania in 1915. BY
direction of the court last named this re-
lease was given to Durant by Oliver Ames
on Oct. q, 1881. Mr. Griswold will now
have to pay the amount of the bond, with
interest.
