property became subject 10 two mort

mortgagor ana the other in which he was
the mortgagee, and as one of them was
about TO be forecloSed he began to look
about for financial assistance. He found
substantial help. not in time to prevent
the foreclosure of his mortgage to the
Marshes. however. bnt opportunely

trust by Sanford to George S. Bowdoin.
and with the S223,O00 Bowdoin redeemed
the land. The objecti0na BILE feature about
that transaction was the making of the
certificate of redemption in BOwdoln's
name.
BY reason of Bowdoin's connection with

nominal possession of the Savings and
Loan Society.
The Savings and Loan Society also Sc
cured another claim on the property. The
ranch became subject TO a number of judg-
ments. and was frequently sold for taxes,
and these judgments and tax claims finally
found their way into the hands of the
Savings and Loan Society. For instance.

valuation of S233, 1877 TO unknown owners
in 1S78 was sold in February Of that year
to Gabriel Blum for S3904 S5 for delinquent
taxes, and Blum conveyed his certificate
of purchase TO Jeremiah Miller, then Miller
to James II. Goodman, and. ultimately,
Goodman to the Savings and Loan Socieiy.

negotiations between Sanford and his
mother with Richardson, Hill q Go. also
tended to throw the ranch into the pos
session OF the Savings and Loan Society
as their result, besides getting Sanford
deeper in debt. aniord's operations were
such that when the case was being argued
by Attorney Hayes last February he
found 1t apt 10 refer to him as "Micaw-

Inc main legal point In the case was
whether the possession by the Savings and

than resulting trust; in other words.

LEGISLATION FOR THE RTOH,

Notwithstanding the fact that the
financial powers in control of the st.
Louis Republic disposed with the
services of Charles III. Jones; whose
broad-gauged editorials had made
the paper a power in the west, there
still creeps into it's columns an occa-
sionsl paragraph which shows that
there is yet at least one writer in the
office in whose veins warm blood
flows. The following quotation and
answer recently appeared IN the Re
public:
The extent TO which British law is made
for the rich, instead of for the poor, is sshOwn
by the statement Of the secretary of the
treasury in the house Of commons that i'm
prisonment for debt remains in existence
for debts of under $40. The only way TO
stave off Imprisonment, therefore, is to
plunge deeper into debt, an anomalous sys-
tenn that weighs heavily on the poor, whose
restricted circumstances do not enable them
to get into debt more than few dollars at
a time.-New York Tribune.
Why does the Tribune go across the ocean
to denounoe laws for the imprisonment Of
debt, when it might look into the statutes Of
its own state? When young southerner,
on his bridal tour, was arrested in New York
city at midnight Of last Saturday and looked
up in the Tombs because he owed New
York hotel three days board bill, and an
expected remittance had failed to arrive,
the Tribune never said a word, even in face
Of the hotel clerks declaration to the au-
thorities that he believed "the young man
was all right, but thought it better to take
no chances" What was that but imprison-
ment for debt2 And how long has it been
since the last svOwed debtor was released
from New York City'sp prison2 The Tribune
is very anxious about England's laws for
the rich, but il could fud cause for sorrow
nearer home.

Hughes, to determine which was the

and his friends could have been ex-

The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-08-09

PERHAPS even John Sherman be-
gins to realize that 'the world do
move" Fifteen years ago when a
few greenbackers got together and
resolved that John and his friends
were disloyal when they demonetized
silver, the world called them (the
greenDackers) traitors, and said they
onght to be imprisoned. Ten years
later, a similar declaration from the
originators of the Peoples party
called forth the suggestion that the
defsmers of SO grand a man were
crazy and ought to be taken care of.
Last week, when Ignstius Donnelly
declared that John Sherman had, by
his demonstration act, done more
harm than had ever been done in this
country by war and pestilence, the
great convention he was addressing
endorsed him unanimously, and their
cheers went echoing throughout the
nation.

Why should Populists, in their
public declarations, be SO exacting as
to demand a ratio of 16 to l in the
coinage of silver? We favor the
coinage of silver as an emergency
measure and it would not hurt us a
bit if the ratio was still less partial
to gold.

NOW THEY WEEP.

pose their own hypocrisy. In a
report of the rsiding of the Topeka
club rooms the Capital said:
Topeka's new chief of police ordered a
raid on the Topeka club last night, and
while the officers got some beer from the
refrigerator, the act of taking gentlemen of
such standing as those who registered to
the police station, or in any way chasing
them ss lawbreakera, cannot but strike one
as an absurdity.
Now this is an expression of the
"dint of pity" that Mr.. Marc Antony
spoke about when he perceived how
his hearers Wept. During all the ex.
istence of the present prohibitory
law the Capital has perhaps never
taken this view of a case before,
never sympathized with any one who
fell into the tolls of the law unless
he was a gentleman of standing"
There was no question but what the
poor devils who from time to time
have been jerked up before the po-
lice court and made to contribute to
the city fund, were lswbreskers, and
no matter how heavily they were
fined or how long they were impris-
oned, 1t was passed upon as matter
of simple justice by these hypocrites
who have been trying to make us be-
lieve that the enforcement of the pro-
hibltory law was a part of their
religion, and that it was one of the
chief objects of their existence. Here
tofore the police have been known to
go into mans mot "gentleman's'')
private house, his home, and seize
liquor, and we do not remember to
have heard the Capital utter one
word of criticism about it. But in
this case it was different. In this
case the arrest of gentlemen of stand
ing amounts to nothing less than
"absurdity." Suppose you admit
that the law, with its numerous
amendments made to screen one class
and catch another, is a colossal ab-
surdity, and see how it will sound to
the readers whom the Capital has
been deceiving for these many years.
The chief of police was simply
doing what appeared to be his plain
duty under the law, and what the
prevailing sentiment of the people of
Topeka required of him. And
strange to say, some of the victims Of
this raid have been quite active in
helping to work up this sentiment,
thinking themselves perfectly safe
from its effects as they were under
the old regime. Mr.. Wilson, as
mayor of the city, signed the ordi-
nance under which he was arrested,
the main section of which is:
It shall be unlawful for any person, di-
rectly or indirectly, either by himself or by
combining and assooiating with others, to
keep or maintain, or aid, assist or abet in
keeping or maintaining, any club room OF
other place in which any intoxicating liquor
is kept for use, gift, barter or sale, or fol
distribution or division among members OF
any club or association, by any means what

NEW YORK, July S.-It leaked out

hasty action increase rather than di.
