A good deal of interest was excited

A good deal of interest was excited
among lawyers, doctors and druggists
not long ago by lawsuit in England
to restrain an apothecary from selling
a compound bearing one of the best
known names Of Food for Infants"
with a notice printed on the wrapper
to the effect that somebody else's food
for infants was better. The justice de-
clined to grant any injunction, and dis
missed the suit on the ground that the
defendant had not committed any
wrong in using the plaintiffs wrappers
as a vehicle for praising his own or
other wares so long as the addition to
the wrapper contained no direct dis
paragement of the compound which the
plaintin manufactured. The case was
taken to the court of appeal, in which a
decision has now been rendered re-
versing the action and ordering new
trial.

According to the st. Paul Dispatch
another effort is now being made to Sc
cure the pardon of the Younger broth
ers. These men invaded the state Of
Minnesota with gang of bandits on a
mission of robbery and murder. They
accomplished murder at Northfield,
but failed to carry off any booty. They
deserved hanging for the murder of
the bank cashier. Their good conduct
in prison is no atonement for that
crime. Exact Justice and good example
require that they serve out the term of
their Imprisonment. No governor can
pardon them without subjecting him
self to severe and deserved criticism.

Early Marriages OF Royalty.

Queen Isabella of Spain, who came to
the throne at three years of age, was
married on her sixteenth birthday
Queen Victoria of England, who was
crowned at eighteen, was married at
twenty. Queen Maria da Gloria de
Braganza, born in the same year as
Queen Victoria, assembled the throne of
Portugal at the age of seven, and at
fifteen welded the duke of Leuchten-
berg, one of the Beauharnais family,
who left her a widow before she was
sixteen, and the year after she married
Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg
Gotha, from which alliance the reign
ing house of Portugal proceeds. From
these examples it will be seen that
there is nothing premature in these
projects of marriage which the qeeen
regent and the privy council of Holland
have set on foot on behalf of the fif-
teen-year-old Queen Wilhelmina.

SHAMEFULLY WEAK.

The Republican Judicial Ticket for This
Distriot-Hatch Good Fellow But Poor
Lawyer.
OF course a. C. Hatch of Heber wont
be elected Judge OF the Fourth Judicial
district. The intelligent republicans
of the district who sense the import
ance and urgent necessity of placing a
capable jurist in that position wouldn't
let him be elected if the district vera
republican, which it is not.
The bar of the district it is safe to
say will not cast one vote at the polls
for Hatch. If one half what the mem
beTs of the bar say about the nomina-
ton we're put into print it would shock
Hatch and bis friends. IAN out
rage" IAN insult to the voters of the
district" Hatch is a good enough
fellow, but no lawyer" The idea of
putting up boy who has had no prsc
tice and given law but little study for
the high and important position of
judge is infamous. These and other
here are heard on every corner.
The position Of Judge requires a jur-
ist to fill it. Life, liberty and pOperty
are entrusted to his rulings and even
the best lawyers in the land are liable
to allow error to creep into the trial of
causes and cause vexatious delays and
extraordinary expense to litigants.
What great harm will an uneXperi-
enced man not do if elected to that po-
sition? But A. g. Hatch of HeDer,
will not be elected to that position.
BE is a corpse, politically speaking,
for the rest of this campaign. He is a
a good fellow and has many warm per-
sonal friends and is from a wealthy
family, who, because of his nomina-
ton, may be bled handsomely for
funds to help run the republican end
Of the campaign, but lacks woefully
inability for the high position for
which he is nominated. Any one of
score or more democrats in this district
can heat him easily.
