Judge Hall of the kennehec county
superior court has under conSidera ton
case which raises a novel question
and which IN all probability. no matter
which way the decision is rendered.
will be carried to the law court.
The suit is that of y. +. PARROT &
Co. of Augusta. VS.. Charles w. Davis.
formerly of Augusta. and CYRUS S. Still
son trustee ana tie amount involved
is $4,000. 1t appears, that Stilson leased
a farm AMI stock to DAVIS under the
date Of Get. /. 1903 for Il period Of four
years. ON March s, 1904. Davis aban-
doned the lease and left for parts I'M
known. Among other stock leased was
a flock of sheep. While Davis was in
possession of the farm and stock Is
lambs were born. The plaintiffs insti-
tuted suit against DAVIS and trusted
StilSon. claiming that the increase in
the original sheep which were delivered
to Davis under the lease when he took
possession We're the property of Da-
Wis
Then the trustee comes into court
and discloses. claiming the lambs as
his property.
Thu case thus resolves itself to the
question as to whom the lambs or the
increase O: the original Snecp belong
StilSOn, the trustee. claims that the
lessee. Davis, derived only such title.

given to him through the terms Of tho
lease ard that when he abandoned the
farm and the stock he committed a
breach of the terms of the lease ana
'u't all tne property including the.
sheep which he received and the in.
crease thereof. reverted back to the
original owner.
The plaintiffs conterd that the in
crease is the property of Charles w

right to hold the same in their trustr.

mcnt of the if account.

The cotton crop in the last five

against only s1,1OO, ZOO, 900 in 1880.

And so on to the end of very long

And so on to the end of very long
chapter.
In the same issue of the Journal
Rev. Sam P. Jones says:
"On my tours since the landslide
of two weeks ago, find two things
TO be true. First, 1 find nobody in
sackcloth and ashes on account of
President Roosevelt's election, and
secondly, 1 find that Mr.. Bryan is
the most loved and admired demo-
crat in the world today. These two
facts are significant, and will have
much to do in shaping future events
in the United States.
ION all sides hear men say that
President Roosevelt is an honest,
brave man, and makes a good presi-
dent He certainly has the respect
and confidence of a great majority
of southern people and would have
their love also, but for the negro in
the woodpile.' The southern people
look on such facts as his tender of
the Panama commissionership to
Senator Cockren land that if he does
not choose that, then the offer of the
railroad commissionership to him)
and Mr.. Roosevelt's kind words and
deeds towards that grand old senator,
and they win him the hearts of south
ern men, and shows them that true
man and faithful service is the one
object of his administration, and that
he is ready to reward honesty and
fidelity to trust no matter which
political party he find them in. Most
men believe that Mr.. Roosevelt will
stand by the interest of the masses
and not regard the wishes of the
classes. Surely he knows that the
great majority of the masses of this
country stood by him in the last
election, and he owes them a debt he
can only payias an honest man by
proceeding against all combinations
of capital that work to the enslave-
ment and pauperism of the masses,
and believe he viii run amuck' and
fearlessly do his duty as he sees it. 1
am sure Mr.. Roosevelt is not the idol
of politicians, or the pet of the trusts.
They are all afraid of him, and they
never know when and where he will
hit them, and that crowd knows their
man, and they know the president is
not their man.

81 know the purest and brainiest
men of the north believe in Roose-
welt, and l do not believe such men
as Secretaries Hay, Root, Shaw,
Morton, etc., and such men as Sena-
tor Cockrell, Joseph w. Folk, etc.,
of the south, would stick to or admire
an unsafe and unsound man.
81 believe that within the next six
months Mr.. Roosevelt will regain the
esteem of southern men by his atti-
tude on questions that are sacred to
all the good and true men of the
south. am sure it's our duty now to
give him a chance to show all the
genuine kindness towards the south

In a late issue of the New York
World, the following figures are
given:
Nineteen states from which the Off
cial returns have been received gave
Roosevelt 4, 1856, 119 votes and Parker
2,749, 226. These states in 1900 gave
Mckinley 4 ,35S,226 and Bryan $685.
966. Roosevelt's gain over Mckinley
in these states is 977,S 1897. Parker's
loss as measured by Bryan's vote in
1900 is ST. 1859. In other words the
republicans made a normal gain,
while the democrats sustained un-

ELECTION ECHOES.
Ssme very Startling Figures-Repue-
uesa Party Mating Gains in the
south.

Mrs. W. H. FELTON,, the bright Geor-
gia woman, who is always ready with
her pen. has collected some Georgia
election figures for the Atlanta Jour-
nal which must fall queerly on
southern ears.
For example here are some of the
things she finds.
Chattoogo county, once upon a
time would have felt itself disgraced
20 show a strong republican vote, yet
that is precisely what it did.
But Murray takes the cakel The
time has been when Murray county
would have had a conniption it to be
called anything but democratic to the
core, yet Murray gave Roosevelt 252
and Parker only 27O-less than 20
votes of difference, whiless Walker
county rolled up for Roosevelt Sol
votes, with only S64 for Parker. Mr..
Watson had a poor showing of only
"a.
Pau.ding gave the opposition over
500 votes and Parker bare 4O2.
Gordon county voted as many votes
for Watson and Roosevelt as it did
for Parker.
Mcintosh, which sends negro rep
resentative TO the legislature, only
gave Roosevelt votes, but it gave
Watson nearly 200, with IA for
Parker.
How is that for high? How did
the negroes vote?
Oconee county is registered with
3s4 for Watson and Roosevelt with
Jess than 200 for Parker.
Thomas county voted 761 for Wat
son and Roosevelt with s62 for Park
er.
How do you account for that,
when Thomas has always boosted of
its democracy9 What was the mat
ter?
Douglas county gave the opposition
40 votes and Parker 2S1.
Jefferson county voted S79 for
Parker and go for the opposition.
What does that mean to the demo-

paralleled losses, which accounts for
Nj. Roosevelt's unprecedented plu-
rality.
The official returns are coming in
slowly, but it is already evident that
the total vote was less than that cast
in 1896 or in 1900. The Evening
Post estimates Roosevelt's total vote
at 1902, $50 and Parker's at 5,119, 7O4.
McKinley's vote in 1900 was 1907 1923
and Bryan's 6,35s, 1873. The estimates
of the 1904 vote may be slightly
augmented by the full official returns,
but they indicate an increase of
approximately 500, 900 in the republi-
can vote as compared with 1900 and
a fallsng off of 1,25O, 900 in the demo-
cratic vote.
The total vote in 1900 was lite more
than %, 900 in excess of the record
breaking vote of 1896. Against a
total vote of 1891 1855 in 1900, the
vote of 1904 promises not to exceed
13,4OO,OOO. 1t may be many thousand
less. A conservative estimate indi-
Gates that $500, 900 electors failed to
vote at all number that is about
equal to Mr.. Roosevelt's popular
plurality. On the basis of the vote
actually cast, Mr.. Roosevelt could
have allowed Judge Parker all the
Debs vote, all the Watson vote, all
the Swallow vote and all the scatter
ing vote, and still won by popular
plurality double that of Mckinley in
1900.
