a part Of our population into manufacture

The manufacturers of MoY:c Nerve fooi
have obtained preliminary injunctons against
Herbert e. Beach ct al and seven other
similar cases These cases were heard to-
gethcr on = motion for a preliminary iniunc-
ton. The MoIie Company have also obtained
apreliminary injunction in their case against
Beach & Clarridge in the circuit court for the
eastern district of Texas.
The MoIie company have built up an
enormous business by legitimate advertising
methods into which they have put great
deal Of capital, and they do not purpose to
to submit TO the imposition of firms who are
endcavoring to gain the advantage of their
widely advertised name by limitations calcu-
lated to deceive the public.
In delivering his opinion, Judge Colt of
the Ma.achn.etts Circuit Court said
In the labels, bottles and wrappers, there
is an evident attempt on the part of the de
PENDANTS to initiate those used by the com
plainant. Some Of the labels are closer I'M
itations than Others. In two case. the de
PENDANTS go 40 far a. to adopt the name NoI-
lie in place of Mo1ie In several case. the
apollinari. bottles are used in the place of
the Mo1ic champagne bottles. But it does
not seem to me important to closely analyze
the different labels or bottles used by de
sendants because | am satisfied that the
lahcls. wrappers and bottle. of all the de
PENDANTS bear so close an imitation to those
of complainant that the public are deceived
in consequence, and that, therefore the in
junction prayed for should be granted.

was taught the uphOlsterer's trade in

he was admitted to the bar. In the

Democratic National Convention. The
party managers could not have made a
better selection. Collins is an excellent
presiding officer. Brilliant, quick and
good humored, he is decision itself, and
cool. brave and unstampedeable in q
crisis. Collins has done great deal OF
presiding during the twenty years he
has been in politics. The most popular
man in his party or in any other party
in Massachusetts,, he has been con-
stantly called to the chair of this, that
OF the other convention, always leav-
ing it more popular than when he took
it. His sense of humor, which is very
keen, is invaluable to him on these oe-
casions. When another man would
be angry Collins is only amused. But
he can be angry, too, when it is neees-
sary. Some years ago he was presiding
over a Democratic convention in Mas
sachusetts in which was an Irish dele
gate from his own end of BostCn, the
proprietor of half dozen saloons and
a thick old-fashioned brogue.
He was very anxious for some reason
to get the floor, and jumped up every
time he thought he saw chance for It
until he had become nuisance to the
whole convention. At last just as a
committee was about to report, he
jumped up again right in front. ''Mr.

The first row Of seats in the fOryer

st. Louis surpassed herself in her
preparation to receive and entertain
the Democratic National Convention.
In 1876 Samuel ]. Tilden was nomi-
mated in this city and since then
St. Louis has at each succeeding ses-
sion made determined efforts to have
the gathering held in her hospitable
halls.
The struggle for its location tn year
was notable one, aaI when the Exec
utiye COMMITTEES met at Washington,
all the leading cities of the country
were represented in the struggle for
the honor. They We'd with each other
in offering inducements TO an extent
that had heretofore never been sur
passed. When st. Louis carried
away the honors it was only because
the gentlemen composing the Com
mittee were convinced that she had of
fered superior inducements and that
the entire country would be better
pleased with the selection Of that city
than any other
The location of the Republican con-
ventiOn in Chicago also served to
8 imulate the citizens in their prepare
tion and the spirit of emulation thus
aroused served to make the facilities
accorded, the decorations displayed,
and the welcome extended surpass
anything that had ever been attempted
in this way.
The clans began gathering as early
as Wednesday of last week and
the Sunday preceding the convention
found the city crowded with sight
seers, politicians and the hetero en-
eous mass that gathers around the
scene of any announced event.
The California delegation accom-
panied Ivy Oregon and Nebraska
was tle first to arrive and
they came in with resplendent
colOrs AM much eclat. After them
the state delegations arrived rapi lly
until On Monday morning the city was
crowded.
The interest was conferred upon the
chO o FOR yice-pres dent and the CON
struction of the tariff plank of the
plat. orm. Around the vice-presiden-
tial nom nations particular interest
