learned what little place Three Oak s
is, shifted up his nose and refused to
60. Little Three Oaks is brave heart
ed. It's spirits were not snuffed by
the old sea dogs disdain. Helen
Gould announced that she would be
there, admiral or no admiral. So
Three Oaks will go down in history
as an example of what hamlet of
energy in free America can do.
Helen Miller Gould occupies posi-
lively an unique place in the hearts
of the American people, and her pres
ence at Three Oaks was an event long
to be remembe red in state and nation
al history. 1t is not necessary to en-
ter into detail as to the steps which
were pursued in securing her consent,
but ii should be emphasized that her
acceptance is cordial and uncondi-
tIonaI.

AN EVENTFUl FOURTH.
July 4, 1863, Marked the Climax of
the Civil War.

The Fourth of July, 1863, in the opinion
of many thoughtful historians, marked
the climax of the civil war, for the fate
Of the Confederacy, by the battles of
Gettysburg and Nicksburg, was then de-
cided, at least from a military point of
view. 1t was strange coincidence that
the fate of the effort TO establish a new
government should have been simultane-
ously determined in the west and on the
Atlantic slope by battles a thousand
miles apart. Had Meade lost at Gettys-
burg with Grant a victor at Vicksburg,
or had Grant been repulsed at Vicks-
burg with Meade victorious at Gettys-
burg, it would still have been a military
question. Had Lee won at Gettysburg
and the Confederate forces repulsed and
beaten Grants army at Nicksburg, it is
not too much TO say that from military
point Of view the Confederacy would
have been established. Vicksburg was
the key of the west. Its fall opened up
the west and southwest to the Union
armies and hemmed the Confederate
forces into a narrow strip between the
Blue Ridge mountains and the sea. On
the other hand, Lee stalking everything
at Gettysburg, staked the only means of
concentrating resistance TO the approach
of the Union forces from the west. He
lost; Nichsburg fell, and from that mo-
ment there was not Confederate gener-
al who did net know that his cause had
failed

THREE. OAKS, MICHIGAN
Celebrated the Unwilling of the Dewey Cannon last
Thursday, June %.
Miss Helen Gould Of New York the Guest of Honor.

Three Oaks, Mich, is little village
Of less than 1000 population, about
as large as Fennimore, Wis. Yet
Thursday, June IS, it had as its
guest of honor Miss Helen Gould. and
as special orator, ex-Secretary of
War Alger. If plans all carried
there were 10000 people thronging
its streets. Three Oaks celebrated

AMPLE CAUSE FOR JOY.
Great achievements Should BE FfIiy
Celebrated on JaIy 4.

Is itQDecess9ry TO enunerate the naug
reasons for national rejoicing? Do we
not all remember how American seamen
gave tie deathblow 10 SPANS colonial
power on that memora BILE day before the
Fourth Of July, 1S9S-on that day
when the gallant but luckless Admiral
Cervera steamed out of Santiago bay
right into the arms of vigilant foe
with the result that he was captured and
his entire squadron was practically ami
Inflated? Can we forget the story of Ell
Caney, the charge of the rough riders up
San Juan hill on July ] and 2 Of 1898,
and the many other stirring incidents
Of the Cuban campaign, or is there
a true American living whose pulse does
not beat faster at the memory of the
doughty deeds done by Dewey and his
men in Manila bay:
Singularly enough, our method of cele-
brating the Fourth does not differ in
many respects from that which was in
vogue half century ago. Then, as now,
patriots everywhere made the day an oc-
casion for delivering speeches, for eating
dinners, for attending picnics, dances and
other forms Of merrymaking and for ring
ing bells and firing off cannons. The
small boy of today has better toy pistol
than his grandfather had when he was a
boy, but il is doubtful if it makes more
noise than the old fashioned blunderbuss,
which was the favorite Fourth of July
weapon among youths in the old days.
Similarly the fire rockets of our day may
ascend TO height and produce more
dazzling effect than the old rockets were
ever capable of, but are we quite sure
that they add more TO the general hilarity
and enthusiasm than was added in the
old days by the tar barrels of our ia
theirs? Happily the tar barrel has not
gone out of fashion. The small boy de-
lights in the blaze that rises from il,
and as the small boy is usually lord Of
the Fourth the resinous barrel will doubt
less continue TO feed flames for some
years to come.

THE FOURTH IN THE SOUTH.
How the Day Was Celebrated In the
Old Dominion.

The southern colonies and, after the
ratification of the constitution, the south
ern states, We're by no means behind
New England in their celebration of the
glorious Fourth. In the Old Dominion of
Virginia 100 years ago the wealthy, pa
triotic planters, their friends, guests and
servants annually assembled i'll great
numbers in the good old town of Rich
mond To- celebrate our nations birthday
with the best horse races of that period
and other open air diversions.
A letter written by my maternal grand
father, writes +. III. Wade in the Pitts
burg Dispatch, dated Richmond, July
5, 1890" now lies before me. 1t gives
a most graphic account of the scenes en-
acted at the annual Fourth of July races
on the preceding day. From this much
priced heirloom | make the following ex-
tract:
THE variegated costumes of a mass Of
danes and gentlemen gave the wide bal
cony the appearance of a flower garden.
and the sparkling eyes, red cheeks and
smiling lips of the young ladies' made the
scene most cir hanting one. Little
beauties in diamonds and lace rode by in
rich chariots, accompanied hy portly old
fellows with enormous rutiles. The horses
were the cream of our Virginia racers.
After being led up and down through the
crowd they We're stripped. saddied and
mounted. The drum tapped, and off they
shot like meteors. When the race was
won by horse bearing our new national
colors-red, white and hlue-in honor Of
the occasion being Independence day,
thought the people would have gone
wild with enthusiasm"

Therefore, all costs for typewriting
charged in respondents cost bill and
made part of his judgment will bs
stricken out and the judgment to that
extent modified.
AS to that part of the REALTORS mo-
ton asking that the entire cost bill and
costs as carried into the judgment be
stricken out, it is sufficient to say that
the objection comes too late under the
last clause of Subdivision of Rule vi,
above cited. 1t is clearly apparent
from the last clause of Subdivision 3,
that objections to be available against
cost claimed by party must be made
within ten days after the fling and
service of the cost bill. The opinion in
this court was filed on the 2O5h day Of
September, 1899. The objections of
the relator to the cost bill and tho
Judgment for cost were not filed and
served until the 5th day of October,
1899.
Objection is also made by relater to
the items OF expressage paid on account
of the transportation of the ballots
from the various counties to be used as
evidence upon the trial of said cause.
We are Of the opinion that it was a
physical impossibility for the Clerks OF
tho respective counties to have safely,
and in some instances in any manner,
produced their ballots in court, in
answer to the process of the court,
otherwise than by expressing them.
Such costs were actually necessary in
obedience to the process of thu court
and were necessarily incurred by the
party. The objection. therefore, mo-
having been made within the time pre-
scribed by the rules, such costs mus
be taxed as claimed. For the sam.
reason the other items to which OBJ
jsctions are made must be allowed tt
stand.
1t is therefore ordered, that tn,
judgment of the court heretofor
entered in this action for costs, b.
modified by reducing the same $4,000

OPINION
By the Court

By the Court.
The relator asks the court to strike out
of the Judgment rendered and entered in
this cause on September Goth, 1899, the
item of S744.25 costs, upon the ground
that no memorandum or bill of costs was
filed or served within the time required
by law or by the rules of the court.
Also to strike from the SO called cost
bill certain items for typewriting briefs,
testimony and transcribing same, for tho
reason that there was no law, agreement
or stipulation authorizing the taxing Of
said items as costs or disbursements.
The cause was argued and submitted to
the court on the 25th day of July, 1899.
Both the relator and respondent fled
their respective cost bills on that day.
1t is provided by the rules of this court
that the expense of printing or type
writing pleadings, affidavits, briefs. Or
other papers constituting the record in
original proceedings upon which the
case is heard in this court, required by
the rules to be printed or typewriter

in bills of costs in the usual mode:
prorided. that no greater amount than
twenty Eve cents per folio of one hun
dred words shall be taxed as costs for
printing, and no greater amount than
twelve and one-half cents per folio for
one copy only shall be taxed as costs
for typewriting. All other costs to be
taxed by the Clork in accordance with
the fee bill. BY the succeeding clause
of the same rule it is required that
either party desiring to recover as
costs his expenses for printing or type
writing in any cause in this court shall,
before said cause is submitted, file with
the Clerk and serve upon the opposite
party verified cost BILL setting forth
the actual cost of such printing OF
typewriting, and no greater amoun1
than such actual cost shall be taxed
BY the third provision of the same rule
it is required, that if either party de
sires to object to the cost claimed by
the other party, he shall, within tel
Jay dlGcT Gue S0FNlCc upon him Oh
copy of the cost bill, file with the Clerk
and serve his objection. Said objec
tions shall be heard and settled, ant
the costs taxed by the Clerk. An ap
peal may be taken from the decision o
the Clerk, either by written notice .
five days, or orally and instanter, t.
the Justices of this court, and the de
cision of such Justices shall be final
If there be no objection to the COS
claimed by the party entitled thereto
they shall be taxed as claimed in hi
cost bill.
The above are the only rules of thi
court regulating the matter raised b
the REALTORS motion. There is nc
