Of this collection which we had called the Brush
wood Edition. and requesting that the sale be at
once stopped AS were particularly sensitive
of being accused of invading authors rights
and as we strenuously deprecated having any
disagreement between Mr. Kiplng and our
house we advised counsel to exhaust every
reasonable resource to bring about a compro-
mise. We suggested that he Mr.. Kipling and
obtain specifications of Mr. Kipling's complaint
Our lawyer wrote to Mr.. Kipllngs counsel, and
his client was righteously indignant over our
appropriation of his property and that the only
possible settlement was on the basis Of a with
drawal Of the books for sale, an accounting to
MIR. Kiping and substantial damages
we recognized the misfortune of bringing the
matter into court and again suggested that the
matter be settled by arbitration any other
method OF redress which would not make the
affair public To that letter we received no re-
sponse except for this information OF the be-
ginning OF a suit We have published nothing
but have simply. retail booksellers. bound

Company. selling us material and taking our
money on the one hand, while at the same time
saying on the other hand. Don't you sell it.
1--WE tried for three weeks TO get specifications
from Mr. Kipling, but they were refused, and we
must infer that he simply doesn't like the way
his books are put up. In our binding, printing
end insignia and titles OF different sorts we
have infringed no rights Of trademarks or copy

The Railroad Mans Prayer.

The old railroad man was converted
so the story goes, and was asked to
lead in prayer This is the way he
worded it: 80, Lord, now that
have tagged the devil, lift up my feet
from the rough road Of sin, and plant
them safely on the deck OF the train
OF salvation. Let me use the safety
lamp Of prudence, make all the coup
lings in the train with the strong
link of Thy love, and let my lantern
be the Bible. And Heavenly Father,
keep all the switches closed that lead
off on the sidings; especially those
with blind end. 0, Lord, il it be
Thy pleasure, have every semaphore
block along the line show the white

JUDGE MEsTREzAT, of Uniontown.

Democratic state convention of
Pennsylvania for Judge OF the Su-
preme Court Under the laws of
that state a voter can only vote for
one candidate for that office and as
there are two to be chosen if judge
Mestrezat is given the nomination

strong sentiment in his favor in the
western part of the state as all the
supreme judges now live east of the
Susquehanna river. The Judges
West Virginia friends will be pleased
to see him elevated to that respon-
sible and honorable position.
