The homestead case OF Richmond
vs.. the Geo. Foster estate was heard
by Register Taylor at the St. Cloud
land Office Monday. J. n. Rhodes
appeared for Mrs. Foster.
The proceedings were instituted by
Chris Crest to dispossess Mrs. Geo.
Foster from a piece of land in Oak
Ridge. The original hearing was to
have been on March "a, but Mr.. Fos-
ter was i'll then, and afterward died,
so the date was changed. 1t was
shown that Foster lived on the land
prior to fling in 1892, and then
temporarily removed, still claiming
the old place as homestead. The
contestant claimed that the land
laws had not been complied With,
but it is thought Mrs. Foster will
win.

tiCal Convention.

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. 22.--Although
the democratic state convention does
not meet until tomorrow, the leaders,
as we'll as most of the delegates, are
here today.
The convention will nominate full
state ticket from governor down to
railroad and land commissioners.
Judge Longino, of Greenville, con-
tinues to lead the race for the guber-
Material nomination and if his strength
is not over calculated 5y his support
ers he will be named on first or second
ballot.
For the other places on the ticket
there are numerous candidates and all
predictions as to the makeup of the
successful slate are more or less prob
lematical.
The platform will deal largely with
state issues, around which the present
campaign turns to the exclusion of ma
tlonal questions.
