bring to sn' EDITORS table. Just now
they bring us very politely worded
letters from State politicians, who in
form us that they desire our personal

securing the nominations they SO much
desire. And right along with these
same letters come others from county
politicians who inform us that the
campaign closed with the election and
that their expenses are heavy; their
time SO occupied they cannot read 80
many papers; they are thankful for
past favors and hope our valuable and
influential paper may continue to flour.

used us as long as they need us and

Sues for $I5O,OOO.

A big equitable relief suit was filed
In common pleas court Monday by Rob-
ert Miller and Ruth Miller, against the
Sun Oil company. The plaintiffs say
that on March 20, 1893, under contract,
they leased with the exclusive right of
drilling and operating for petroleum or
gas $50 acres of land in Wood county,
embracing twelve different tracts. The
lease was drawn up for a period OF ten
years. According to the lease the
plaintiffs say that they were to receive
one-half of all oil from wells netting
over twelve barrels daily, and one sixth
from those producing less. When the
contract was made there were 40 wells
in operation and petroleum in paying
quantities. In order to properly drill
the property the plaintiffs say that not
less than twenty wells should be drilled
annually. The plaintiffs claim that the
defendant has failed in these thinge:
To develop the land; to operate wells
with reasonable degree OF care; to pro-
tect from the operation OF other por-
tions; appropriated gas to their own
use without accounting. For all
these grievances the plaintiffs pray for
judgment in the sum Of S150,OOO. Fur
ther that the lease be cancelled and all
gas piped and sold by the defendent be
accounted for. This is by far the larg
est suit filed In common pleas court for
several years.-Tribune.
