IN THE SUPREME COURT.
Judgment Affirmed In O'Donnell VS.. Nell
son Bennett ct. al.

Judgment Affirmed In O'Donnell VS.. Nell
son Bennett ct. al.
Associate Justice Dewitt delivered the
opinion in the case of Charles O'Donnell,
appellant vs. Nelson Bennett ct. al. The
aston was brought. says the court. to re-
cover for cutting and hauling logs. A ques-
tion has arisen as to whether the action was
upon a special contract, or upon quantum
meruit. Upon entertaining the view that
We take of the case, discussion Of that
matter does not seam to be required. The
plaintiff alleges that he cut and hauled for
the defendnnts 469 600 feet of logs at the
all to s2,227.75 That Of thi. amount the
defendants have paid him 81, 341. 81 leaving
Q balance due of &886.14. The defense
set up in the answer is that tho plaintiff did
not cut or haul any logs for defendants
either for an agreed price or otherwise.
The defense made upon the trial was that
was done for one Thomas Booarde.
The situation, as the defendants
claim, was that Booardo was
running saw mill; that he was indebted to
the defendants in considerable sum; that
defendants had a ohattel mortgage on Bo-
carde's saw mill plant, to secure the 5ame
and that defendants, in order that Bocards
might operate his saw mill and 20 make
money to paw his debt to them, they stood
behind him to such extent RS sureties, in
this, that they guaranteed persons dealing
with Bocarde, and that plaintiff had his
contract with Bocarde for hauling and de-
livering logs, and that defendant's only re-
lntion to the transaction was to guarantee
plalntiff's pay from Bocarde and that they
actually paid him on orders issued by Bo-
carde. The plaintiffs position, on the
other hand. was that Bocarde WAS simply 4
foreman, or boss, or manager for the de-
fendhnts. O'Donnell got verdict for $50
and that two notes of 1875 each given by
him to defendants should ba cancelled He
moved for n new trial which was denied,
The judgment and the order overrulinp the
motion for q new trial is affirmed.

There was much good feeling among the
MON bers OF the Dry Goods Mems pemocrat'e
Club ut their meeting yesterday. Tor they were
told that they were to have the right OF line IN
the big business mons Democratic parade on
Saturday. They were also told that the pres.
ent outlook promises tho biggest company OF
dry goods men 10 line ever seen together In
New York. That made them cheer.
Then the treasurer reminded them that tho
Democratic dry goods men had mover asked or
received n cent Of assistance from any politi.
clan or political Organization. and he wanted
the record kent straight in that respect
The response WAS prompt and generous LOT
the Cleveland dry goods men are enthusiastic
about that parade. Keep your eye on the right
OF line. and you'll see more dry goods men thah
you imagine there are in New York. ana they
can veil with such precision and volume that
you'll think they devote all their time to mat
sort OF thing.
Yesterday noon they gave big. jolly recep-

Tho pnst month Inns been characterized
by exceedingly dry weather In this part ol
the country, particularly on Long Island
and Staten Island. A week ago Sunday ne
we learn from q number OF Suffolk county
newspapers, prayers for rain were said in
mnny churches on Long Island: and last
Sunday similar prayers were offered in most
Of tho churches on Staten Island.
On both islands the drought has been Sc
severe that the wells. streams. and ponds
have dried up to sach M extent rs to pro-
ducc serious Inconvenience in many locnli-
ties in procuring tho water necessary Tor
household uses. Tho unusual dryncss has
also rendered grassy tracts and woodlands
extremely ini!anmabr. and forest fires
have been extensive and almost continuous
during the past fortnight.
For tho sake of our insular friends who
nrc suffering for want of water. we shall be
very glad when It rains long enough and
copiously enough to satisfy their thirsty
spirits. Iii praying for rain their clergy

Mr.. EvARTs may not think that the frauds
hy which the Republican party flched the
Presidency in 1867 are part OF the record
OF the Republican party. AS defender
and beneficiary OF those frauds. 1t Is
natural that he should think so. He may
think that the vote of the people in tho
Presidential election of 1876 shaped the des-
TIMES for the four years that began on
March 4. 1871 with the induction into ONCE
of n fraudulent President. Mr.. EvARrs
must not expect however. that the Amerl-
can people have forgotten these things.
The record of tho Republican party in 1876
and 1877 is now Of living interest.
The passage Of the Force bill would mean
the election of Republican Presidents by a
cheaper process than was employed in
1876. 1t would mean permanent dcspotsm.

A Perplcxlng Question.

The eyes OF nil Now Jersey Democrats are
upon the Hon MILES Ross. People are
waiting for the National Committeeman to
fastcn his grip on the throat OF tho po-
ltical miscrcant who has been schcning to
defeat Judge WEErs and elect JOHN KEAN.
Jr.. as Governor, upon the false pretence
that the safety of the national ticket re-
quires that sacrifice.
There seems to DO almost universal con-
fldence that the Hon. MILES Ross will catch
tho mysterious plotter as soon rs he gets
at work in earnest.
Meanwhile. somewhat embarrassing
question has arisen. The New Jersey De-
Iuocracy will undoubtedly honor their loyal
and energetic National Committeeman
with a public banquet when he has per-
formed the duty just indicated; but shall
the public banquet preccde the public
lynching OF the traitor. or shall the rope
now in impatient hands be employed before
tho Hon. MILES Ross is ushered to tho sent
OF honor ut the dinner table?
At present it looks as X tho lynching
would occur before the festivities begin.
