When a man brings a suit
against another through spite,
backed by taxpayers money for
costs, it would be the correct thing
for the courts to tax the costs
against him personally, should he
utterly fail to show a cause for
action and show conclusively by
his own acts that he forced the de-
fendant into court.

letic sports on Main street, and at 8
