my daughter in this city l advised

overlook my advice and there is

GUARANTEE LAND TITLES.
A Bill to Establish the Torrens System of
Land Transfer introduced by Senator
Chandler in the Last Legislature.

Anaconda Standard: In the legisla-
tive assembly last winter, Senate
Chandler, of Fergus county, intro.
duced a bill providing for what is
known as the Torrens system of land
transfer. 1t has long been in opera
tion in Australia and has attracted
more or less attention in this country
on account of its seeming simplicity
and economy. Montana's legislature
thought it was too radical a departure
from the old established customs and
accordingly killed the bill, whereupon
Senator Chandler again gave notice
that he would again introdtce it at the
next session of the assembly and
hoped that the people of Montana in
the meantime would familiarize them
selves with the subject.
What makes the topic pertinent
one just now is the fact that similar
bill has been passed by the Illinois leg
islature and was a day or ago signed
by Gov. Altgeld. Agitation on the
subject began in Illinois six years ago
and has been kept up ever since. In
brief. the Torrens system is this: The
owner of piece of property receives
from the recorder certificate OF own
ership, giving a full description and
the last record OF transfer indorsed
thereon. After this, uutil the certifi-
cate has been completely written over,
every transfer, mortgage or release is
indorsed on the certificate as well as
entered on the books of the recorder
With this certificate as evidence OF
title, the owner of a piece of prop.
erty can dispose OF it with the
same ease as he can dispose of gov.
ernment bond. There is no necessity
for the delay and expense OF an alb
stract of title running back to the be
ginning. All the required facts are
stated on the certificate, which the
holder can verify by going to the re-
corder's Office and comparing with the
entries on the books. When the Ger
tificate is completely written over the
holder can get a new one bearing only
the record OF the last transfer. Thai
is all the title he needs.
In Illinois the provisions of the bill
do not become effective ur til approved
by popular vote in the particular
county where action is desired. Ths
local option principle ewasincorporated
as ana mendment while bill was in the
hands of the house judiciary commit
tee. The first endeavor to bring il
into active operation will probably b'
made in Cook county next Novem Der
The bill was vigorously championed
by the real estate board of the county
as it will greatly facilitate their trans
actions. 1t is also approved by lead
ing lawyers and the largest abstract
concerns profess no opposition to it
claiming that it will not interfere will
their ~'sinsss, In fact, there must b.
a larse amount of seerchingo of title be
fore the first certificate of ownership
can be issued.

Turned TO the Wall.

c. S. Fell, formerly n joint owner OF
the ARGUS, but now a partner of A. X.
Yerkes, in the Bozeman Chronicle, is
taking his summer vacation. 1t seems
he failed to appoint some one to stand
guard over Growers picture during
his absence, and it has come to grief.
Last weeks Chronicle contains the
following in relation to it's disappear
ance:
"The picture of President Cleveland,
which has done duty at the Chronicle
Office for several years has met with
disaster at last. Upon several occa-
sions people have tried to abstract it
from the Office, to put Grape upon it
and otherwise molest it, but the watch
fulness and patriotism OF the business
manager has alway been proof against
this until an evil moment, when he
went away.
"On Tuesday man, whom we
tro ngly suspect of bearing the name
of Kountz, surreptitiously took the
picture from the wall and at an early
hour hung it in a conspicuous place at
a resort where men most do congre-
gate. Mr.. II. b. Sacket was the first
to gaze upon it, and the scene which
followed beggared description. But
when Col. Chisholm first beheld it for
a few minutes he was speechless.
Finally he found use of his tongue,
and what followed will be remembered
by those present until the day of their
death. In the meanwhile the question
naturally arises with us: WHO'S
going to pay for that picture?' 1t cost
$500. This is more than we ever got
out OF it, it is true: but then the shock
to the feelings of him who is now sail
ing on the placid bosom OF the Sound
is worth something"
