The famous baccarat scandal came
TO an end this week with the defeat
of the complainant, Cummings.
Few have closely watched the evil
dence in the trial but have become
convinced that he is but the scape-
goat and that the real culprit rests,
fairly secure behind the veneration
which English people have long
yielded royalty. But even this feel
ing is giving way. Royalty shows
itself to be much the same as com
mon clay and a few more court
scenes like those lately enacted in
London will put it upon the same
plane.
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1891-06-12

Surely the reform Legislature is
having a hard time Of it. No sooner
is Friedlander's Indian question al
lowed to quietly die down than out
comes the exposure of the Munthe-
Doyle affair. 1t really seems too
bad TO be always bringing up some
thing to annoy and dismay the OPP
position in this, their first legislature
for years. Of course no one will
admit but that it was wrong first for
the common council of Ironwood to
vote money to influence legislation.
Then it was criminlly careless in the
council TO intrust the matter to
Munthe. That seems to be the
Opinion: Of the democratic members
of the house. The Tact that Munthe
should give Doyle $50 in cash and a
diamond pin worth as mach for
helping put a bill through doesn't
seem TO bother them at all. 1t is
probable that an investigation Will
be choked. Democrats don't in
vesligate.
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1891-06-12

The present reform Legislature is
in deep water sure. Close upon
the heels of the Ironwood disclosure
comes the statement that An Sable
voted money to influence municipal
legislation and from the statements
made by the president of the council
it is evident that Fridlander Of the
squaw fame received it. 1t seems
hardly possible that the two legls-
lative bodies will fail to order a
most searching investigation. Yet
the present outlook is that the mat
ter will be passed over in silence.
The leaders of the democracy in the
Legislature do not dare to push an
investigation.

A Satisfactory Ending.

The suit of John Hicks, Robert Steel
Cornelius Bennett and Josiah Upton
against William S. Turck and L. y
Ely of this village which has been pend
ing for some time in the courts came
to an enc in the Supreme court last
week. The court deciding in favor of
Turck and Ely. A brief history of
the case may be of some interest to the
readers Of the RECORD.
In 1885 Messrs Tu-ck and Ely con-
templated the purchase of property in
the west suitable for ranching purposes
and shortly after deciding upon such a
move Mr. Turck met DIS French of st.
Johns, with whom he had intimate
business relations for many years. Mr..
French on learning Of Turck and Ely
plan, spoke of ranch in Nebraska
owned by Hicks. Bennett & Co., for
whom he was attorney which he
thought would suit them. He pictured
the ranch in glowing colors and a trip
was made TO the place. 1t was claimed
10y the purchasers, and proven in the
trial, that Mr.. French misrepresented
the condition of the ranch on this visit
and induced the defendants TO pur-
chase half interest, the other half be-
ing taken by Hicks and Steel. The
price paid for the ranch was ZOO
ard the defendants claim that each one
was to have IN undivided one-fourth
interest and be liable only for an un-
divided one-fourth of the consideration.
La 1855 the complainants rendered to
Messrs Turck and Ely deed for their
part which the latter because of the
fraud practiced upon them refused and
in 1889 a suit was brought at st. Johns
to compel the fullillmcnt of the con-
tract. This suit went against the de-
PENDANTS VINO through their attorney.
Jas. l.. Clark, Immediately carried the
case to the supreme court where YER
diet was rendered in their favor. The
closing sentences Of the finding of the
court will give very good idea of the
view the bench took of the case.
From a careful examination of tn e
record we are forced to the conclusion
that Turck by reason of his intimacy
with French relied largely upon the
representations made by French to
him, and that many of theserepres enta-
tons relating to the productiveness
and character of the land, the adapt
blity of the ranch and the climate for
stock raising, the number of cattle on
the ranch. the location of the right.of-
way of the railroad company and the
ownership of the spur and sheep pens,
we're untrue and misled defendants
and that the value of the ranch is
much less than it would have been
had it been as represented.
Equity will not decree performance
of contract into which a party had
been led by Misrepresentation. Parties
asking the aid of a Court of Equity TO
enforce an agreement must exhibit a
contract free from any charge or sus-
picion Of unfairness or fraud.
The decree Of the court will be set
aside, and decree entered here dis
missing complainants' bill with costs of
both courts to defendants"

In his Memorial Day speech at
Canton, Major Mckinley defended
the pension appropriation with
figures that speak for themselves. 1t
was part of his argument that when
the war closed the government had
two great debts-one to its creditors
who loaned their money in the ma
tons peril; the other to the men
who saved the Union and, made it
possible to pay its debts. The pub
lie debt at the close Of the war had
reached the enormous sum of three
thousand millions, and we couldn't
pay it. But we could pay the in
terest and extend the payment Of the
principal until the country recovered
from the waste Of war. This was
done, and Major Mckinley shows
how it was done while the soldiers
were put off, until as the interest &C
count decreased the pension pay.
ments were increased, and justice
thus fairly melted out to both the
great classes of government credit
