Rcrphcim Assignment Sustained.

In December, 1891, Stein, Bloch & Co.
and several other creditors of Matthe W
Bernheim instituted a suit seeking to set
aside a deed of assignment that had been
executed by him to Ammon Behrend, al
leging that the debtor had disposed of
goods fraudulently, secreted his assets, and
that the debts preferred by the assign
ment We're fictitious and fraudulent, and
that the assignee was guilty of gross mis-
conduct and fraudulent practices. AT a
preliminary hearing the court appointed a
receiver to take charge of all the assets.
The case came on for final hearing before
Judge Cox last week and has occupied the
attention of the court for the last six days.
The court, in dismissing the complainants'
bill held that the evidence falls to eStab-
lish the fraudulent character of any OF
the preferences or any misconduct on the
part of the assignee; that there was no
evidence produced showing secretion or
fraudulent disposition by Bernheim of any
Of his property, and directed the case to
be referred to the auditor to state the ac-
count of the receiver. Messrs. Garnett,
Butterworth, T. w. Birney, w. H. Sholes,
Heald and Worthington appeared for the
creditors and Mr.. Leon Tobriner tor the
defendant.

PRESCOTT, A. T.. Jan. 1.-THE most
terrific rain storm to visit this section
IN years ended today after seventy-two
hours duration. Granite creek, usually
a dry stream, broke over its banks

tremendous. A dozen dwellings have

dered homeless. The eastern portion
of north Prescott has been submerged
for twenty.four hours and had the rain
not turned into snow the damage would
simply have been incalcuab BILE. The loss
will foot up in real estate and personal
property at least SIC, 1000.
The new north and south road is like
wise damaged into the thousands.
Traffic both ways from this city has

A NOTABLE SPEECH.
Col. Fitch's Argument in the Walker
Case.

Case.
The most important event in So
preme court yesterday, and there will
be nothing more interesting this term,
was the hearing of the famous Walker
case. The case was opened by an ar
gument in behalf of the estate by Col.
Thos. Fitch. The celebrated lawyer
has seldom had theme which opened
before him such a splendid field for
oratory. Sympathetic eloquence in
behalf of the widow and graphic de-
scriptions of the romantic incidents
attending perhaps the most extraordi-
nary case ever introduced into court
on the coast.
The effort was worthy of the
occasion and when Col. Fitch closed
his argument, if he had not won
his case, he had at least added to the
great measure of respect in which he is
held by his brethren at the bar. The
argument for the administrator was
taken up in the afternoon by Selim M.
Franklin, but was only half concluded
when court adjourned at O'Clock.
Chief Justice Baker disqualified by
having acted as an attorney in the case,
left the bench. Other proceedings in
court consisted mainly of motions.

Wednesday, January =, 1895.

The year 1895 is now being en-
tered into, and all of US should re-
solve to make this year surpass any
of the past. Let US all feel that we
are here breathing the same atmos-
phere, depending on each other to
make life a pleasure, and work for
the brightning OF our future pros
poets. We will be called upon be-
fore long to select men to represent
US in convention that is to change
our constitution, and every voter
should seriously take this matter into
his mind and consider we'll before he
casts his vote. He should select his
representatives on their merits and
not be influenced by the hurrahs OF
politicians.
We want the constitution changed
So that our people can get better
school facilities where their children
can atleast geta primary education
at home: We also want the constl-
tuition changed whereby the State
Government can be run with less ex-
pense in order that the now tax
burdened people can get some relief,
and to get the desired changes the
people must steer clear of politicians
and look about for men that nave no
political friends to reward or foes to
punish. The constitutional conven-
ton should be composed of good
practical business men, without such
there is great danger Of bringing
about ruin instead of good.
a convention to change constitu-
ton is far different from political
caucus OF convention. Oneis for the
betterment of the people for many
years to come and the other is for
the advancement of a few individ-
uals for short period. 1t therefore
behooves every voter to think we'll
before he acts. The acts of a politi-
cal convention may be overthrown at
an election following it, but the acts
of constitutional convention may
stand Tor generatlons- Wnen tne
time comes to select our represen-
tatives let US all make our selection
with a view to bettering our present
condition and this we can do if we
will not allow factional prejudice to
interfere. The Times has battled as
had for the Reform faction as any
newspaper in the State, and it still
cherishes its principles, but at the
same time we are willing to concede
that in the conservative faction there
are men who have the welfare of the
State at heart and are willing to Join
in to help work for the good of the
masses.
The Lexow committee has sue
ceeded in exposing the corruption of
the New York city police force, and
now another committee should go to
work and expose the corruption Of
the Lexow committee.

4 Letter from Mr.. Ragin.

Pinewcod, S. c., Dec. 9th, 1894.
Editor The Manning Times:-l am
2ou often seen in public print, but do
now ask space in your paper to In
ouire of our honorable body of Rep
resentatives why they treated our
neighborhood with such little respect
in 50 utterly disregarding a petition
recommending myself as the Demo
cratic choice to fill the trial justice
Office to be established at this place,
and again after rejecting my name
with an overwhelming petition signed
bv every white man in the expected
precinct, together with the endorse
ment of such men as Capt. D. W.
Brailsford, Messrs. J. S. Cantey, G. r.
Fielder, and others, as prominent
men who not only know my politics
but my raising and ability, and rec.
commended by over one hundred OF
the best men of both factions. 1g-
noring their wishes entirely, and
again after the refusing of my name
by your body, another choice was
made and signed by this the very
people who mas the Office to support
and like the first was laid aside as be-
ing not your body's choice. After
our people giving up in dispair, your
body selects q man and recommends
his name without the consulting OF a
single wish of the people, and I for
one know twas -aEaa-w1tnouI MS
soffc1taJion. So far as / am con-
cerned I am perfectly satisfied and
am proud Of your accidental choice.
He is good man and will give salts
faction to all sides and factions, but
Just suppose your recommendation
was not the right man, what redress
has community left with delega,
ton to represent their interest who
by action says you are unit to choose
for yourselves!and again byignoring a
second request say, / will do your
thinking right or wrong and leave
you no redress.
Now, gentlemen, am not sore for
not being your choice, and it is an
other proof that politics teaches to
60 back on ones political friends is
true have always been styled an
Anti but have never deviated from
true Democracy and always voted a
full ticket at the primaries, and I'm
sorry only now to say supported the
present delegation who are trying to
make themselves predominant and
will not consult the wishes Of the peo-
pie. Remember there was at least
two Tillmanites to one Anti on my
petition, and they are men of sterling
q ualities and who I venture to say
that their recollection will live at
least two years. Il any Of you are
fishing by this act, for votes, for the
constitutional convention, 20 u
slipped up. You may do things more
ridiculous and 7 guarantee your
votes will show you your mistake in
this neighborhood.
Very respectfully submitted,
A. P. RAGIN.
