Cannot Be Collected In Mechanics
Lien Cases.
JUDGE HILES so RULES
IN UNIFORMITY WITH FOUR
TENTH AMENDMENT
To the Constitution Of the United
States-District Court Orders By
Judges Hi1es and Cherry-Prohate
Business and Miscellaneous Court
Notes.

A very important ruling was made by
Judge Hiles yesterday, being in effect
that attorneys fees cannot be collected
in mechanics lien cases.
The ruling was made in the case Of
c. Z. Brubaker against ]. H. Bennett,
an action to foreclose a mechanics lien.
The statute provides for an attorneys
fee of $25 in favor of the holder OF the
lien. Attorney Pierce set UP the claim
that this state law was in conflict with
the fourteenth amendment of the con-
stitution of the United States, which
guarantees equal protection to every
individual within it's domain. Mr..
Pierce claimed that the allowing of at
torney's fees to the lien-holder. if he
wins, and not to the owner of the prop
erty in the event that he wins, is a
discrimination against individual rights
and in conflict with the intention of the
federal constitution. which guarantees
equal rights to all.
In his opinion, which was brief, Judge
Hiles holds that the state law providing
for a fee in such a case is in contraven-
ton of the constitution of the United
States and therefore imperative.
Attorney w. r. Hutchinson, who rep
resented the opposite side of the ques-
ton, may decide to take an appeal to
the supreme court.

MYSTERIOUS HOMICIDE.
Prominent Business Man Killed By
His Brother-in-Law.

Cincinnati, Sept. 24.-Ex-State Sena-
tor ]. c. Richardson, president of the
Haldeman Paper company, who was
shot yesterday by his brother-in-law,
w. J. Haldeman, in his office at Lock-
land. is still alive today, but his age
is a cause for fear that he may not en-
dure the shock of the wounds The
marshal of Glendale took Mr.. Halde-
man into custody at his home in Glen
dale today.
The affair causes intense feeling on
account of the close business relations
of the parties and of their high social
positions They occupied palatial homes
in Glendale and are among the best
known business men of the country. 1t
is difficult to find an adequate motive
for the shooting. The men were alone
in their office when the shooting oc-
Cured. The victim declines to assign
any cause. His son, however, says there
has been a clash in the management
over alleged neglect of Haldeman with
reference to car of paper, but they
afterwards discussed business together.
1t was o'clock in the afternoon when
Haldeman returned from the bank and
the shooting occurred.

tiff's attorney dismissed yesterday.
In the case OF r. A Powers VS..
Charles E. Taylor, Judge Hiles yester-
day granted the motion to set aside
judgment against the defendant for a
deficiency on the foreclosure of mort
gage, on the ground that defendant was
not personally served with the sum-
mons.
Arguments in the divorce case of
Lena Arnold VS.. James Arnold were
listened to by Judge Hiles yesterday,
and the case taken under advisement.
Judge Cherry yesterday made a set
ting of jury cases to commence Oct. 4.
The case of the Mountain Ice COM
pany against Salt Lake City was dis
missed yesterday at plaintiffs cost
In the matter of John B. Busch, a
voluntary bankrupt, the creditors by a
majority vote selected Cornelius Hunt

Trust company ct al. VS.. the Ogden
Furnace & Manufacturing company ct
al, an order was made directing absent

he reluctantly consented to become
candidate for county clerk at the 1lth
hour at the earnest solicitation OF
friends, whose Judgment was in error.
Mr.. James begged at the last moment
that his name be not presented, but
this request was unheeded. and after
the first ballot he insisted that he be
withdrawn. This announcement was
not made to the convention, although
few delegates understood it.
Another candidate on the county
ticket will doubtless be hailed with de-
light every time ne comes to the city.
His name is Haigh, and he is can
didate for county commissioner. Halgh
has money, wads of it. This helped
him, for. some one told the boys about
it, and said Haigh would spend 1t. The
rush for Haigh was something ter
rife.
Speaking of commissioners. They do
say that Dix's speech concerning
Strickley ''puttering' around Bingham
will do the other candidate lot OF
good. The hardy miners over there OBJ
ject to being designated as ''putterers.
Another objection was raised against
Hal Brown yesterday. ELECT that man
commissioners? said one. well, 1
guess not. He would be just as liable
to bet the county court house on a
horse race and lose it as not"
Charlie Post was receiving the COM
miseration of his friends yesterday,
and took the situation with Indian
like gravity which characterizes all his
actions. Charlie has been told by sew
eral he is going to be elected.
A resident of Draper, who was in the
city yesterday, says that the nonina-
ton of Mackey pleases the people in
the south end of the county not little
bit. They are for silver down there.
and want no goldbugs on their ticket.

WHOLESOME ADVICE
For People Whose Stomachs Are
Weak and Digestion Poor.

weak ana digestion POOR.
DR.. Harlandson, whose opinion in dis
eases is worthy of attention, says when
man or woman comes to me COM
planning of indigestion, loss of appe-
tite, sour stomach, belching, sour wat
cry risings, headaches, sleeplessness,
lack of ambition and a general run
down nervous condition, l advise
them to take after each meal one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, al
lowing the tablet to dissolve in the
mouth, and thus mingle with the food
eaten. The result is that the food is
speedily digested before it has time to
sour and ferment. These tablets will
digest food anyway, whether the stom-
ach wants or not, because they con-
tain harmless digestive principles, veg
etable essences, pepsin and Golden Seal,
which supply just what the weak
stomach lacks.
1 have advised the tablets with great
success, both in curing Indigestion and
to build up the tissues, increase flesh
in thin nervous patients, whose real
trouble was dyspepsia, and as soon as
the stomach was put to rights they
did not know what sickness was.
A fifty-cent package of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets can be bought at any
drug store. and as they are not secret
patent medicine they can be used as
often as desired with full assurance
that they contain nothing harmful in
the slightest degree; on the contrary.
anyone whose stomach is at all de-
ranged will find great benefit from the
use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. They
will cure any form of stomach weak
ness or disease except cancer of the
stomach. Full size package at drug

GRAHAM IS WEAK.
Owes His Nomination to George M.
Cannon

Arthur Graham, the Republican con-
vention's nominee for county clerk,
came in for q good deal of attention
yesterday in discussions pertaining to
the personnel of candidates and the
relative merits of the two tickets. 1t
was the common expression that he is
woefully weak, if not the weakest man
or boy-on the ticket. If it had been
the studied purpose to nominate a can
didate who would fall the farthest short
in defeating David c. Dunbar, the end
has been fully accomplished in the
nomination OF Graham. He is first
class job printer, having worked at the
trade ever since he could ink a roller,
but he is not qualified by tact or train
ing to fill the responsible position Of
county clerk. In the opinion of very
many Of the delegates who supported
him Just for the amusement Of salts
flying the vaulting ambitions of the
youth. he is not the one who can at
tract the so-called "disSatisfed'
Democratic vote, nor the votes of the
Democratic tradesmen, neither can he
expect the support of the large array
of attorneys, who, aside from partisan
reasons, ere very much averse to swap
ping a trusted horse for an unbroken
cayuse colt in mid-stream. As a prom
inent Fifth precinct Republican eX-
pressed himself yesterday, Graham is
an unqualified success as a sprouting
politician, backed by gang of kid"
heelers who are looking for spoils. He
can beat any youngster at blowing hot
and cold in the same breath, and in
posing as a Democrat and Republican
without changing step he does them all
I'D. But that kind of business does not
pay, even in politics. Mark my word,
