The Fritz-BlackWlll Case.

The celebrated case of Fritz vs.. Black.
will Bros. in the Cove county district
court has at last been decided in favor Of
the plaintiff and judgment rendered for
the full amount of his claim, about one
hundred dollars. In several regards this
has been a remarkable case. The par
ties to the suit were merchants OF Quin-
ter and the amount involved as already
intimated was about 500. The Black
will Bros. claimed that they had paid the
amount demanded by plaintiff and as evil
dence produced receipt in full from
the plaintiff. The plaintiff admitted Civ
ing the receipt but testified that the Black
wills procured the receipt before actual
ly paying the money and that they
then refused to pay. The case is remark
able in this that the action was common
ced within few days after the receipt
was given and when the transaction was
fresh in the minds of the parties. It
seems that it is impossible to take
charitable view of this case and presume
that one of the parties was mistaken.
From the very nature of the case this
was impossible. The case was first tried
before justice of the peace and a jury,
and verdict rendered in favor Of plain.
tiff. It was appealed to Cove county dis
trict court and tried four times resulting
each time in a "hung Jury" The fifth
time the jury brought in verdict as
before stated in very short
time after retiring. The costs in the case
are about 500.

The following is the syllabus of the
decision of the supreme court in revers-
ing the Judgment in the case of Willard
Vs. Ostrapder:
"Where in an action upon promissory
note, the defendant answered that the
note sued upon had been given as part of
the purchase price of flock of sheep,
and alleged an express warranty OF
soundness of the sheep included in the
purchase, and set up counter-claim for
damages on account of a breach of the
warranty; and upon trial testified on his
own behalf that the contract was verbal,
but upon further examination it was
disclosed that the defendant received a
bill of sale from the agent of the defen-
dant that did not contain an express war
ranty for the sheep sold. Held that the
oral evidence given in relation to the
terms of the contract should have been
excluded, the presumption being that the
written instrument contained the whole
contract, and should govern, unless fraud
had been alleged and proven. All the
justices concurring.

What Will the Harvest Be.

From the best information obtainable
Kansas will have much more than aver
age crop of wheat this year. When we
consider that Kansas stands at the head
of wheat growing stats as regards yield
per acre and the further fact that the
acerageis much larger than ever before we
can realize something of the magnitude
of our wheat crop. Harvesting has COM
menced in some localities while early
wheat in other localities Is entirely out of
danger. In Trego we will have the lar
gest crop of wheat ever harvested here
which is saying a good deal.
