The Adoption Legal.

RocKLAND, May IA case that
has excited considerable interest
in the state has just been
decided by the supreme judges.
Several years ago the late Samuel Pills
bury adopted his grandson, William H.
Clark, and in the will he was made an
equal heir with the other inheritors.
Frances E. Hurley, daughter of the de-
ceased, began an action to have the
adoption set aside on the ground that
the judge of probate issued letters of
adoption during vacation, and entered
the records as of the succeeding term of
the supreme court. The case has been
contested by Mortland & johnson for
Clark, and W. Fl. Fogler for Hurley, who
had associated with him Hon. VIM. l..
Putnam, until the latter's appointment
to the United States court of appeals,
when the late Nathan B. Cleaves took
this place. The courts rescript holds
that the judge of probate's action was
legal and the adoption was in due legal
form.
THE rescript has been printed in the

MAY DAY MEETING.
MIR. LIoyd's Address to the Central Labor
Union.

A largely attended eight-hour meeting
was held at Gospel Mission Hall last eve
ming. Thomas J. Feeney presided, and
after q bright opening speech, Henry
Lloyd of Boston was introduced.
Mr.. Lloyd said the labor movement is
reality, not dream; not theory, but
a condition. When look at the poverty
that fills our streets, it seems to me that
the time has come to ask, in the words
of our illustrious friend from Alabama,
Where are we at?'' No longer theory
but condition all over the world. To-
day $4,000 men walked through the city
of London to Hyde Park, and from IA
platforms workingmen raised the banner
of economic equality and the rights of
men. And in Chicago today, the Execu-
tive of the United States opened the
great fair and called attention to the
splendid results of American brain and
Drawn,
We, who are interested in the labor
movement, differ as to ultimate results
and present methods, but we all agree
on one point, the necessity of strong,
enduring, comprehensive labor organiza-
ton, led by honest, able and wise men.
If capital says: you are not always
wise in your manner of dealing with
these great questions" we plead guilty,
but then we were taken from the school
early, and forced to work. The doctrine
of Herbert Spencer does not always APP
ply, and the fittest does not always sur
vive.
The dollar is to be divided. but how?
The employer is not to have all, nor the
laborer all, that would not be division.
and the real solution is only to be reached
when employer and employee meet in con-
ference, with a mutual desire to do JUS
tice to all.
We have a mission, What is it? 1t
is to p resent the truth as we know it,
to sift all economic questions.
leaving the bad and accepting the good.
We have to educate the people, until the
laboring men and laboring women shall
be gentlemen and ladies, Democracy
cannot exist where vice is in the ascen-
dancy. The immortal Lincoln gave the
true definition of Democracy when he
spoke of government ''of the people,
by the people and for the people,"
Following the meeting at the hall was
a banquet at the ST. Julian. President
Walter H. Laysett of the Central Labor
Union. presided, and brief speeches were
made by Mr.. Lloyd, William FL. Melon
