scholar, defines the rights which it
will aid, and specifies the way in which
it will aid them. So far as it defines,
thereby creating it is substantive law"
However as there can be no real legal
right without power of redress if it
be violated, alongside of the substan.
tive law lies the other great division,
the law of remedy, or means" as it
has been phrased, whereby rights and
duties are enforced" Obviously, the
latter includes all legal provisions and
regulations for the creation of courts J.,
and under which they proceed in dis
charge of their duties, as well as the
places where they shall be held.
In early English history the king was
the actual as he still is the theoretical
fountain and dispenser of civil justice.
AS a consequence, when controversies
arose between parties respecting rights
of person or property, they were com
PEELED to journey to the point where
the sovereign might be domiciled for
redress, But by clause in Magma
Charta, it was ordained that the Court
of Common Pleas should not thence
forth follow the king, but be held in
some certain place" According to
Blackstone this short provision of the
Great Charter had most decisive in
fiuence in favor OF the common law in
its struggle to prevent the intrusion of
the Roman or Civil law into England.
by the time of Edward |. if not be-
FORE says an able American jurist,
we reach the important era when the
judicial office is separated from the
kingly office, and when justice is ad
ministered by the judges, and in the ju-
dicial courts" That, indeed is a mat
ter of signal consequence, for as this
writer adds-"the judges act under the
solemnity of an oath of Office. They
sit in public. They must hear argu-
ments on both sides. They do not pes

llctr judgments eboIly a d in imp 1rt-
ant csses state the Prt unds and reAs-
oh' therefor Thy nave the power Al

cress."
Very evidently, as he further OBJ
serves, the difference between judicial
courts constituted of judges and any
form of legislative tribunal not consti-
tuted by judges but of Commissioners
or other officials by whatsoever name
they may be called, is of vital moment
to the rights and liberties of the citi-
zen.' And may also use his words

OUR CANDIDATES.
W. W. Ely Renominated for
Position of County Treasurer.

The republicans of the County of
Mahaska have nominated Mr.. w. w.
Ely candidate to succeed himself
to the Office of county treasurer and
the work of the county convention
will be heartily endorsed by the
people at the polls in November.
During his term of Office Mr. Ely
has conducted the affairs of the place
in manner satisfactory to all people
concerned. The gentleman took up
the duties of the Office with an ease
born of experience and has since
conducted the business with system
and a routine that are faultless. His
experience in this line of work makes
Mr.. Eby one of the best officials the
Office has ever had.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1901-07-25

Mr.. Ely was born in Richland
county, Ohio, July 81, 1912, on alarm
about ten miles south of Mansfield.
AT the age of twelve he commenced
work on the farm and in the mill
which his father and un, le operated
in connection with the farm. He at
tended the country schools in the
winters at such times as he could be
spared from the mill, which made
his opportunity for an early educa-
ton rather Imeagre He improved his
time however and thoroughly mast
cred the lrudiments, on which his
after success was built.
Responding to one of the earliest
calls for troops he enlisted for the
War of The Rebellion, in Company @
of the Gath Ohio volunteers, and
served in the army of the Cumber-
land for two years. He was severely
wounded in the battle of Stone River
or Murfreesborougb, Dec. 81, 1852,
and was in the hospital for several
months. BY reason of the wound,
which rendered him unfit for duty,
he was;mustered out of the service
March Is, 1868. His discharge came
while he was still in the field hospital
and unable to move He never fully
recovered and is lame to this day, as
a result.
He returned to his home near
Mansfield in April 1868, and remained
there, doing what he could on the
farm, until Jan. 1, 1865. He then
went to Iron City, expecting to take
a course in the Commercial College,
but before he had finished a three
months term he was compelled to
return home, on account of the i'll
ness of his father, and take charge of
the farm.
He was married Nov. IA, 1855, to
Catherine Richie, and they remained
on the farm until Sept. 1868, when,
on account of his wound he was I'M
able to continue longer at farm work.
He then engaged in the planning mill
business with an uncle in Indiana.
Here he remained until 1882 when he
came to Oskaloosa, and found en-
ployment in the mills of this city I'M
til Jan. 1, 1890. At that time he was
appointed deputy by County Treae-
urer @. V. Hoffman,, resigning be-
fore the second term was up to look
after other business. Afterwards he
was deputy for Mitchell Wilson dur
ing the latter's two terms in office.
Mr.. Eby is a member of Phil
Kearney Post No. 40, G. A. r. of this
city and is also identified with several
other fraternal societies. He is a
good citizen and property owner of
the city and is always found doing
his full share toward every public
improvement and worthy enterprise.
He has always been an active repub-
lican, and is a good man in every
way, conscientious and true, one in
whom everybody has explicit confid-
ence.
A vote for Eby is an endorsement
of a business like and painstaking
administration of the Office of county
treasurer and the just recognition OF
the services of soldier and patriot.

IOWA CROP REPORT.
Weekly Bulletin Issued by the
Weather Bureau.
DIES MONIES, Iowa, July %.


The week afforded no relief from
the excessive heat prevalent the pre-
ceding week and larger part of the
month. The past two weeks have
broken all previous records Of sus-
tanned his temperatures for so long
a period in this state. The mean at
the central station has been So de-
grees, and the average of maximum
temperatures about 100 for the four
teen days. Numerous stations report
1O7 on the goth and 2lst, and one
station 100 on the 21st. During sew
eral days brisk to high winds blew,
but the hot winds have not been SO
high and destructive as in July, 1894.
Some mitigation of the torrid condi-
tions was afforded by scattered show
ers in portions of the eastern and
north central districts, but the drouth
has not been broken. The reports
indicate that early corn in the tassel-
ing stage has suffered material dam
age in all parts of the state and es-
pecially in the southern and eastern
districts. Late planted corn on deep,
rich soil, is showing much less injury
and copious rains within a week
would brighten the outlook for about
three-fourths of the crop. The ex-
tent of actual loss cannot be esti7
mated at this time. Harvesting small
grain crops is nearly completed, and
threshing is in progress. Pastures,
potatoes, apples and garden truck
show continual deterioration.
