Does mortgage on sheep include
the wool? asked correspondent of
the Pacific Rural Press. Its answer
is as follows: ga man gave chattel
mortgage on herd of sheep in Kern
county, the mortgage to cover the in
crease thereof" The mortgagor
sheared the sheep AMI the mortgage
claiaaed the wool. Suit was brought
for its recovery, But the lower court
ruled against The mortgages. The
Supreme Court, in affirming the judy
ment, has laid down the Jaw that the
increase of herd of sheep or cattle
or other domestic animal means the
young of such animals, and cannot ap-
ply to the wool in question any more
than the chattrl mortgage Of dairy
would cover the butter and cheese to
be hereafter produced.

A STARTLING DISCOVERY.

SINCE the decision of Chief Justice

"additions" have picked up their ears
and begun to look about to see where
they are at.

ago, Tempe had case of swell come

in "west Tempe" and the town and
its newly made brother moved along
in harmony and development. But the
Murphy addition took shy out into
the unknown and as before stated, ad
ditions took tumble and Tempe be-
gan to wonder where it was to get off,
and yesterday the probate judge dis
covered the addition map of west
Tempe, still in his off, &c, urhled and

tory that all such APPS be filed with
the county recorder, and the probate
Judge at once proceeded to have west

A PARABLE.

And now the time cometh apace,
yea, draweth nigh, when the Mighty
Statesman from every x Roads from
Dan to Beersheba, remembereth in his
heart that a little free advertising
goeth long way in turning the enemy
itno rout and confusion while politi-
canvass beginneth to wax warm; and
that big bunch of che editors quill
juice, gratis, helpeta nightly to q
nomination This is that which he
hath rolled under his tongue as a
sweet morsel, even since the days OF
the last election.
Now. it doth not appear unto him
that he hath not said even kind
word for his county print for the
space of one yesr, four months and
six days. He feign would forget.
Neither doth he remember that in the
G., eat Book called the Ledger, at his
county priutshop, there appeareth a
great sum charged against him.
He hath not helped to Increase the
circulation of that which he now de-
sireth to make his chief mouthplece
and tooter of praise.
''In the morning." sayeth he unto
himsalf, II shall betake myself to the
news dispensary, for mayhap my bur-
den may be lightened and my election
made sure by the aid of the sanity
editor who presides over the destinies
of many aspiring men like unto myself
in this baiiiwick."
In the morning he doeth even as he
hath vowed unto himself that he would
do. He prepareth himself for a jour
ney; he filleth himself on the good
things which the good woman of his
heart and home hath in haste prepared
for him-even the corn pone, the black
coffee and the swine bosom. After
the which he bcstrideth his ass and
hicth awsy unto the county seat.
As the editor seateth himself at his
window in the watch tower over
against the east wall, he espyeth a
waytarer drawing nigh unto the gate
of the city. And behold! when the
traveller draweth anigh, the editor
doeth recognize him and remember;
and the devil, who standeth near the
inner door armed with the Office
towel, heareth the master at the east
window to exclaim, "Behold the ASST
