An important case was tried in
Judge Reeder's court at Russell last
week, which IS described by the Rus
sell Record, as follows: 'sPrubably the
most important case tried YVES that or
L. G. Walbridge vs.-Board OF County
commissioners of Russell county.
This was claim of damages for lay
ing out a road on a section line. The
county claims that it does not have
to pay for land taken on sectionIine,
Walbridge claims that as his lands
were railroad lands the railroads
rights attached before the passage OF
the law or 1873 which made the Sec
tien lines in Russell county public
highways. In almost every road that
is laid out nowadays in this and other
western counties the same question
arises. The court upheld the coun-
TVS demurrer. thus holding that. the
land may be taken without pay. Wal
bridge will appeal at once to the su-
preme court"

In a letter from Canada we made
mention of their system of land trans
fers and titles and several readers
have since asked US to explain the
system. 1t is very simple. Every
purchaser OF real estate gets his deed
direct from the Dominion govern
ment. Jones owns farm, Inch he
sells to Smith. Instead of deciding
the land to Smith and furnishing
an abstract showing every trans
Ter or the tract since it was pat
ented, Jones makes an assignment of
MS deed to Smith at an expense of 25
cents for notary fee. Smith sends
this assignment with Jones' old deed
to the provincial register, whe causes
a new deed to issue to Smith direct
from the Dominion government.
When Smith sells the land to Brown
he does the same thing. No chain of
transfers to look up in buying a piece
of land. A man has either a good til
tie, deed direct from the govern
ment, or he has nothing at all. No
4ong and constantly frightening alb
stract to pay for; no expert examiner
necessary to pass upon your title: no
flaws in your title; no suits to quiet
title. A maximum of perfection and
security at minimum cost. No mat
ter from whom you buy a piece. Of
land, you get your deed direct from |
the government.-Maukato Advocate.

TOURISTS CARS POPULAR.

The idea that an inferior class OF
people patronize the tourist sleepers
is an error. On many trips only
the best class OF travellers are found.
They are merely men end women
Of good sense who would rather
travel to CalifoDia in this manner
and save a snug sum of money to be
used elsewhere. It is beginning to
be undertood that is by no means
necessary for the traveller to spend
q large sum of money in order to
enjoy q trip to the Pacific Coast.
If you cross the continent in one
of the tourist sleepers of the Union
Pacific you will enjoy your trip and
save considerable money. Inquire

was out of the question and fishing
was only indulged in by the small

flowing and we'll stocked in fish and
everyone should take pride in pro-
noting the features Of the lake

relief from the heat in the cool
depths Of the lake. u a%
