1t is the verdict of veteran pollti-
clans hat no Presidential campaign
in our history was waged with more
skill and s~hrewdncss than that OF
1876. when Tilden and Hayes we're
opposing candidates. Zachariah Chan
der was chairman Of the Republican
National Committee in that year n
the fight which he made for Hayes
proved him>one of the greatest po1it-
ical generals of his time. indeed TO
a large extent, he established the po-
political methods of the present day.
Chandler was a native of New Eng
land. and was endowed with all the
personal traits of the shrewd Yankee,
enhanced by the experience incident
to a successful career in Michigan at
a time when that State was near the
frontier. Success in business brought
him wealth and influence, II these,
combined with the instincts of a
fighter and intense party spirit. made
him the dominating force in Michigan
politics during and fc" Z dozen years
after the Civil War. His aggressive
ness gave him a foremost place in the
Senate, and g in 1876 to his being
chosen manager OF the Hayes cam
Daign.
Chandler was at his best in this ca
pacity, and the sequel proved him
equal to the task he had taken in
hand. Breaking the solid South had.
therefore, been regarded as an impos-
sibility, and. as a matter OF fact. nc

at midnight people went to bed and
considered the fight at ar end. Blu
an hour later Chandler gave the press

from Spa bridge, foot of Duke of

the Severn Boat Club the enigne will
be supplied with fresh water for the

to the deficiency of the water supply
at the reservoir on account of the re-
pairs now being made to the reserve
dams, which were carried away by

supply to the treservoirs, and in view
of the notice given TO consumers by

pany, of a possible shortage of supply if
economy was not practiced in the use

not use the fire plugs tonight for the
usual monthly practice, but will make

An OPINION Of THE COURT.
In The Equity Case of George Win
terling And Others VS..
Adeline Rullman.

Judge Revell filed this morning an
important opinion in the equity pro.
ceeding involving the real estate left
by the late Frederick Rullman, lying
on the Spa road near the city limit.
bill in equity was filed by certain
Judgment creditors of MIR. Rullman
and by. his widow. claiming tosgbe
creditor 10 the extent of a loan made
by her for the construction of dwell
ing house on her husbands property.
The facts, as set out in the Courts
opinion, appear to be as follows
When the government took from Mrs.
Rullman her property ON Wagner
street. in this city. as an addition to
the Naval Academy, she took por-
tion of this fund and built n dwelling
house and outhuildings on her hus-
bands property, under a parole agree
ment on his part made in the presence
of witnesses. that he would reimburse
her for the amount thus expended or
would give q mortgage upon the
property itself TO secure her.
During the twelve years that follow.
ed Mrs. Rullamn never obtained from
her husband any security or mortgage
for the amount advanced by her, and
after his death filed claim against
his estate for such amount as we'll as
for certain sums advanced by her for
repairs of the tenant houses ON the
property and for rents which she
claimed were due her. The Court,
in n full opinion on the subject, allows
the widows claim to the extent of
$S52.7l but refuses TO allow for the
other items of her account in view of
the fact that under an earlier deed
Mr.. Rullman had given his wife a
life estate in this property, and she,
as life tenant, was responsible for the
repairs to the tenant houses.
The claim for rents was also disal-
lowed by the Court upon the ground
that the rents of the property had
been used for the support of the fam
lily and not exclusively by Mr. Rull-
man. The point was an interesting
one, involving. as it did, the ques-
tion of a contract between IA husband
and wife and to what extent n court
of equity would enforce such con
tract against deceased husbands es-
tate, where there was no written evil
dence of the Indebtedness or acknowl-
edgment

The Question of Horses

1t is said that an effort will be made
for the three fire companies assisted
by prominent organization in this
city, TO give bazaar for the purpose of
raising enough money with which to
purchase horses for the truck and
enigne, also new equipment for the
Hook and Ladder Company. A prom
inent business man of the town and an
earnest worker in the interest of the
fire department, in speaking of a
bazaar, suggested that it be held for
one week. Get the ladies Of the town
to assist, and it would be a grand
success. "The question of horses, .
he said, sis a very Important thing
and something that is absolutely nee
essary. if the city is to have a depart
ment able to cope with any fire as the
emergency arises. He said that if
enough money could be realized to
purchase horses, he was almost GER
tain that the city would provide men
to attend to them.
