Chattel Mortgage Decision.

In the case of Halyer Nicholson vs..
G. w. Hill. in which an Injunction had
issued against foreclosure proceedings
Of chattel mortgage on account OF
usurious interest. j udge Trip in cham
bers on the llth instant issued the fol-
lowing order
ut is ordered that the Injunction
prayed for by the defendant c. " Hill
restraining plaintiff from loreclosing
sad chattel mortgage by advertise
meut, be denied: that the order prayed
for. transferring the further proceed
ings III foreclosure 10 the district court
for hearing, be denied: further ihatth
application for an order to have the
property therein named returned to
defendant, be denied
Albert @underson for plaintiff, u 3.
Melville and c. W. Hill for defendant.
From this decision on chattel mort
gage foreclosure it would seem to be
wisdom for nlortgagors TO be guided
by wiser counsel than TO rush into
court only to add q bill Of costs to IN
already large enough debt. Court OK

The Register of Deeds throws up
his hands in holy horror at the awful
discovery that the "lIgotlstical Ex-heg-
ister7 had made fatal error in signing
a county warrant without putting the
county seal upon il.
Then he negatively, inslnuates that
the warrant Was a fraudulent issue
10 which we dare not attach the seal
If so why would we have dared to
sign our name? Some people are Very
anxious to pick the mote out OF their
neighbor's eye. While a whole frame
barn is in their own.
We remember Of seeing not long ago
upon the margin OF one OF the mort
gage records OF the county, discharge
signe] by the nlortgagor and sworn to
before L. n. LOOMS or one CT MS
danuties an;to Which there was no
seal attached.
Perhaps if the books Of our county
officials were carefully examined we
| would find that the most OF our county
officers are not infalible. We Go not
expect Instability. but shall be per
fectlv free to critic;se the official acts
of any county officer, be he friend OF
foe. when such acts jeopardiZe the
interests OF our farmers and tax
