also have In addition a special title I'm
dicating its object and clearly expos
ing Its purpose so as to give II a plain
ly separate character as a proceeding
from all other matters in the estate.
This petition does not meet these
requirements. 1t is entitled and filed
in the ma tier of the estate of Andrew
]. Davis. deceased. and Is endorsed
Petition and Contest of Elizabeth A.
Smith
II think, however, that the defects
OF title are not sufficient to entirely
vitiate the petition and that taking the
whole together with a proper citation.
the defendants might with reasonable
diligence be expected to discover this
petition and answer thereto and that
they would not likely be misled on ac-
count of its defects to their prejudice.
IF this be true, then. such defect Is
such as the court is by the code direct
ed to disregard. The substantial rights
of the parties must be respected.
Finally, l notice specification No.
VIII, wherein II Is stated that II does
not appear from said petition what
persons are sought to be made parties
defendant to said proceeding. and said
petition does not ask for a citation
against any specific or particular per-
son or persons as parties defendant
Good pleading requires that a party
should pray for what he wants and
pray specifically. The petitioner prays
that the clerk may issue a citation to
all proper parties.
This is an indolent prayer, 1t may
be. Ii is an Indifferent way of asking,
to say the least. The important thing
is that a proper citation shall be is
sued to all necessary parties. The
prayer Is not a material part of the pc
tition In the sense that the omission of
a proper prayer Is fatal to the petition.
Had proper citation been issued here
in as result of the clerks industry,
research and knowledge, or from any
other reason, Ii is plain that defendant
could not have been heard to complain
OF this defect and IL the court found
that the petition was in all other re-
spects complete 1t would have proceed
ed to determine the facts involved and
give petitioner any relief to which she
might be entitled"
Thompson Campbell, one of the att
torneys for Mrs. Smith, took exception
TO the ruling OF the court in setting
aside the citation and asked for five
days In which to file amendments and
have a new citation issued, but the
court declined to give any time, as the
other side has raised the question that
4 Is too late to issue a new citation or
lie amendments and that point will
De decided on the petitioners motion
'or leave to file amendments and on
her application to have a new citation
ssued.
A number of motions and demurrers
n other contests were set for hearing

A Correction.

Editor Greenbrier Independent
The writer published some time
ago misleading article in the IN
DEPENDENT, and he wishes to ac-
knowledge his mistake and as far as
possible correct it. He believed
that in 1878 Congress defined a dol
lar as 25.S grains of gold, and that
since that anything the Government
stamped dollar, whether gold, sill
yer or paper, called for 25.9 of gold.
The money of the country in that
condition suited him very well, and
he was ready to defend it against any
alterations. But far from our hav-
ing a gold standard, as the writer
thought, we are on bimetallic ba-
sis. The silver that has been coined
is irredeemable money, it rests upon
itself, just as the coined gold rests
upon itself.
Far from resting easy about my
poor mans dollar, because based on
the rich mans dollar, and going fish
ing on election day, as intended to
do, ] shall go to the polls and vote
for Bryan in defense Of my silver
dollar, for l am persuaded it will be
rendered worthless if the Mckinley
platform is sustained by the votes Of
the country, and that cannot afford.
IfanyOne wishes reliable informa-
ton on the financial questions agi-
tating the country, advise him to
send a letter to the u. S. Treasury
Department, Washington, ID. c..
asking that "Circular 1913" be mailed
to his address.
When he receives it he will find
that a great many things he is sure he
knows are but products of his own
imagination, or of the Imagination of
some one else whom ne has trusted.
The pamphlet Is prepared for the
information of the people and will
be mailed him free of charge.
Hoping the above is sufficient,
am the readers most humble and
penitent servant. HECKEL.

THERE is more Catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than all other dis.
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incurable
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-.
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronOuced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be q constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constitu-
tlonal treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,

Editor Greenbrier INDEPENDENT ::

Looking to the development of oul
country, we should not overlook those
institutions which lead to this end
The first day Of September is nearly
here-the day for opening our next
District Fair. There is no Organiza
ton more calculated to bring direct
and speedy remuneration to the people
and especially the stoCk-raisers of this
valley, than an agricultural fair. There
stOckmen meet with their stock on ex,
hibition - the rivalry for supremacy
calls strangers and buyers TO witness
the contest.
This is the best manner of advertis-
ing stock. 1t is the surest way of get.
ting good cash buyers.
Buyers look over all, take their
choice and pay their money. Stock.
laisers are thus inspired to improve
their stock. This valley is peculiarly
adapted to stock-raising and we have
1t here-why not show it in a public
way that will induce strangers to come
to our county to see what we have
There is no better time nor place to
exhibit stock to great advantage than
at our Fair.
Good, convenient and roomy stalls,
well provided with straw for bedding
plenty Of good water on the the ground
and every needed attention given to
exhibitors. There is money to the peo-
pie Of our valley in keeping up such an
organization. We understand that the
prospects are excellent for a good ex-
hibitiOn at our next Fair.
Those who love the trot and running
race will be pleased with our races
Those who love good music will be sat
isfied in the Floral Hall, where pianos
of the best manufacture will be heard,
and n iirSt-class brass band on the
ground. Those who wish to see eX-
quisite work in the ladies depart
ment would eXclaim, "perfectly beau
tiful," if they could only see entries
already made with the Secretary.
We hear of no bears, nor balloons;
but the bicycles will be there passing
through the air in their negligees.
Amusements for all-old and young.
The -go-round with horses and
chariots to please. For pleasure and
profit there is no place like the Fair.
If you want to meet an old comrade,
friend or acquaintance, come to the
Far-they will all be thereon horse
back, foot and in buggles.
