Judicial Decisions.

nell as aCorrectP Proposition.
Judge Bach Puts On the Black
Cap to Sentence a Hardened
Criminal at Great Falls.
MECHANICS LIENS.

Judge Mcconnell l Uphoids the Law Upon
the Subject.
Judge Mcdonnell recently rendered
decision upon what was regarded as
test case under the law regu ating
mechanics' liens, which |, in some,
what mixed state upon our statute
books. The case was that Of John
Morrigan vs.. Lydia J. Engl sh aud
the Home Building and Loan Associa
ton. 1t was legal proceeding tc
enforce lien against he new house Of
Mrs. English. for p astering, etc, do"t
by said Morrigan, the payment fol
which remained due to the ext ent Of
$223. The plaintiff was sub-contract
or under w. II Crawford, the princi-
pal contractor.
The complaint was demurred to OIL
the grounds:
lst. That il was uncertain, ambigu'
Gus and uninte ligible; and
Ind. That 1t did not set forth suf-
licient cause of action.
In his decision the Judge quoted the
provisions Of the Jaw applying to the
case, and showed that. though there
was some conflict betw, Ell the law and
the amenement made in 1857, the sub
contractor had a lieI against he prop
erty. In the language of the decision
at follows then, that the plaintiff,
who plastered the building for Mrs
English, has lien !, r said work done
aud material furnished, provided he
made out and swore { an emized ac-
count and Fl ed it with the county
clek and recorder within As days, AZ
provided by the amendment OF sept
l4th. 1851" Hence the demurrer was
overru'ed as to the fret point.
The decision continues: "But sec
ton ! 1873 of the new revision express y
provides that in all suits under thi:
chapter, the parties to the contract
and all other persons interested in the
matter in controversy and in the
property charged with lien, may be
made pa, ties; and Crawford, with
whom the complaint alleges that the
plaintiff made his contract, not beiug
a party defendant, the complaint is
bad for want Of such party"
The effect of the decision is TO hold
the lien law go d. The p aintiffs will
have to amend their compliant before
the trial can be proceeded with.

The editor of this paper is tho recipi-
ent of a unique Christmas present from
Miss Annie Uline, daughter of Col.
Uline. 1t is a small plaque upon which
Miss Uline has painted a scene we'll re-
membered by the pioneers of this city
the old log house and the little log black
smith shop which stool on the hill III the
southeastern portion of the city, and
which'our local history recognizes az
the first buildings erected here. The
house was, during the winter of 1882
and the spring of 1889, the hotel where
the hundreds of people who came here
to spy out the land stopped to refresh
themselves. 1t was also the office and
headquarters of the old TOWNSHIP COM
pany and subsequently tho residence
Of Col. Uline and family. Miss Uline
has reproduced the cen with striking
accuracy and shown herself to be an
artist OF no small merit.

.The New south"

For several years after the close of the
late war for the Union, the southern
states remained in q condition Of poverty
and exhaustion from which many
thought it was impossible for them to
recover. Atlanta, in 1885 a dilapidated,
half-burned town, is now the Chicago OF
the south. a city of magnificent build
ings aud the centre of an enormous
trade. Birmingham bids fair to surpass
Pittsburgh in iron manufactures. and to
become an immense workshop, while
the continually advancing prices of
real estate are marvellous. Nashville
and Memphis are metropolitan cities,
pushing to the front under the guidance
Of alert and energetic men Of business.
New Orleans has renewed her youth and
held two magnificent expositions.
Everywhere progress is the watchword.
