AN ADVANTAGE.
The Difference Between Johnson and
De Vries.

(F'rom the Lodi Sentinel)
Personally there is little difference be-
tween Grove L. Johnson, the Repub-
lican, and Marion de Vries, the Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress. Both are
lawyers and each stands we'll in his
profession. One is more a man Of the
PEOPLE than the other, and Mr.. de Vries
is certainly no less an aristocrat than
his opponent. Mr.. Johnson is as honest
and honorable in every particular as
Mr.. de Vries. So far there is no ad-
vantage.
Eut there is an advantage which the
voters of this district cannot we'll over
look. Mr.. Johnson has had the ex-
perience Of term in Congress- While
there he became recognized as one of
the most effective workers in that
body. He has work for his district
now we'll under way which he can
81 ccessfully carry out if he is returned,
but which may be lost If he is de-
feated.
A State never gains anything by
continual changes. The State of Maine,
which elects and re-elects her Con-
gressmen, has great advantages over
ether States which have larger rep
resentation, but which are making fire.
quent changes.
Mr.. Johnson has carried out every
promise he has made and is ready at
any time to render to the voters of
this district an account Of his work.

der of sale of defendants land to sat

divorce. Order affirmed.
The jurisdiction of the court to make
provision for support in divorce suit
Is not dependent upon averments in the
complaint of the husbands resources,
any more than it's power to dispose of
the children depends upon an allegation
of the relative fitness of the parents
for their custody
An action for divorce is to be treated
as a case in equity, and in the statute
should not be construed as abridging
the powers of courts having cognizance
Of matrimonial causes to declare a lien
for securing the award of support to
the wife in such cases. 1t is within the
legitimate power of the court to make
such decree a charge upon real estate.
When a divorce is awarded on the
ground of extreme cruelty the court is
authorized to assign the community
property to the parties in such proper
tion as, under the circumstances, may
seem just.

Questions of title or right of posses

actual possession of plaintiff being
proven, he would be entitled to restitu-
ton, though the ee-simple title and
present right of possession are shown
to be in the defendant. Under the code,
all entries on the actual possession Of
another are unlawful, and the question
of good or bad faith on the part Of the

ing the fight among the Ohio delegates
to secure the standard of the state in
order to join the joyous marching pro-
cession over the nomination of Bryan,
1 said to a gentleman beside me:
'If Ohio wants the vice president her
delegates had better stop fighting and
join in that procession Just then in
the struggle the top of the standard, or.
which was pair.ted the word, "Ohio,"
was broken off and fell to the floor.
That event also seems to have broken

Mr.. McLean's vice presidential BOOM
The closing session of a national con-
vention, which has nothing to do but
nominate a candidate for the vice presi-
dency is always apt to be dull and list
less. Today's session was no excep-
ton to the general rlile. The Wash
ington correspondents seemed to have
fled in body, ard the newspaper sec
ton, in which 1 sat, which was yester-
day filled with lis active workers, had
just fifteen in position today. Not
w1thstanding this array of vacant
chairs. the energy Of the police were
directed to drive out man who had
sat down for a social chat with a cor
respondent, because he had no press
badge. The Bland band, which had
broken out so many times opportunely
and inopportunely in the gallery, was
missing, and so were much Of the peo-
pie who for the past four days have
made that portion of the building very
much a thing of life. Delegates came
in slowly and looked tired and sleepy
and at the hour for the convention to
have begun, there were not fifty pres
ent. An hour later there were many
vacant chairs, about equally distribut-
ed among the silver and gold states
Only one Of the gold men from Mime
sofa put in an appearance, and while
all Of the dissenting states had some
one there to speak for them, there
were few which did not have more va
cant than occupied chairs. The only
real cordial applause of the gallery was
the uniform announcement from New
York when the roll of states was called
clines to vote"
This seemed to annoy Chairman
Richardson and on the fourth repeti-
ton he announced with great vehe-
mence that he would order the gale

occurred. AS the galleries were only

the occupants were women and children
