The McGregor Will Case.

The most important case before the
court during the term just closed was
what is commonly termed the ME
Gregor will case" in which certain
parties. relatives of Mrs. McGregor,
who passed away previous to Mr.. Nc
Gregor's death. sought to have set
aside Mr.. McGregor's will which divid-
ed his estate among his own relatives
and the H. H. Kaiser family, with
whom he made his home after the
death of his wife, and bequest to the
church of which he was member
To obtain recognition from the courts
in contesting will it must be shown
that the parties contesting have an, in
terest in the estate left by the deceas-
ed, and to secure this recognition the
parties seeking to contest the will set
up the claim that will made previous
to the one offered for probate willed
the property to them, and that it had
been destroyed and new one made on
account of undue influence of the heirs
under the will offered for probate.
The counsel for the heirs under the
will offered raised the point that it was
not proven that the will alleged tc
have been destroyed had ever existed,
ed orally on the trial That in order
to establish the will it would be
necessary for them to first go into
court of equity and there have it de-
creed that such will had been made;
that it was in due form and gave the
estate to the parties who were contest
ing. and was wrongfully destroyed; and
that having failed to do so they had nc
standing in court or right to contest
the will. The court upheld this con-
tention and refused to admit further
evidence, and admitted the will offered
to probate.
Converse & Grannis were the attor-
neys for the contestants and John
McCook was the attorney for the heirs
under the will admitted to probate.

VIEWED BY JAPANESE EYES.

Baroness GOtO Finds That American
 Women Are DiscOntented. New York Tribune.
 Baroness Goto, of Tokyo, Japan, who has lately been travling incognita Tn this country, expresses herself thus in the Fujin Gwaho (Woman's Graph icl of Tokyo regarding American women and Japanese ideals:
 Tn American homes," says Baroness Goto the mistress apparently re- ceives the first consideration. There fore one would think that American women are very happy. But In real ity they are it seems to me, in rather unhappy discontented condition. IT one takes delicious food all the time one does not appreciate 1t, and. in the same way when a woman is cared TOT by her husband all the time she can not appreciate it as she ought, and feels constantly discontented with her lot. When a woman Is very well taken care of In general she feels keenly even a little neglect. This comment seems justified by the fact that in America. where women receive frst consideration, there are more cases of divorce than any where else in the world.
 Tt is easy to theorize about domes- tic life" continues Baroness Goto ''but in reality domestic life Is a very complicated matter. and one requiring great care and judgment. From na- ture or habit, man opposes the sug- gestion of women. Accordingly, ir order to prong a man to any desired point of view, a woman must have the tact not to express herself too open lS."

E Garfield GuiIty9

Birmingham Ledger. .,A
 Mir Roosevelt kept young Gartielu in office and promoted him, after his ridiculous reports on the trusts. par ticularly the meat trust. That report would have laughed any other man out of politics. It did not pre- vent the president from giving the young man a cabinet seat. Of course the young man Is pleasant com panion for the president, but he Is no doubt kept in high place to influence the Garfield sentiment in Ohio. me young cabinet officer has not shoWh the slightest statesmanship, but ne holds a great position.
 It is now charged that he made things easy for the Standard OH In Oklahoma. The New York Sun, pre- stunned to be Wall Street organ, t9kes sides against young Garfield ana putss the case so strongly against him Lha' it Is expected the White House will is- sue a denial of the charge.
 This is not a case for cnarges ana must stand the white light or puoilcl- ty, and he must be judged by what ne has done, not by what he says; or what the president says: He either did give franchises to the company. or he uid not. The public wants the facts. White House statements are not public records

A GROSS VIOLATION OF LAW.

The whole country Is being flooded with extracts from Republican apeeches. and in most wanton violation of the postal laws. Selections are made from the speeches of Republican Senators and Representatives printed on one side of card board In postal card shape and on the other the words, parts of Congressional Re- cord, free" with name of Congressman ar Senator. whose frank is used and name and postofice of person to whom addressed. If this is not a plain vio- iation of the franking privilege, 1t would be difficult to tell when that law as violated. It is done for the purpose of gaving postage and the people of all, parties are thus made to help bear che expense of conducting a Repubh- can campaign. The Advertiser yester- aav received the following letter. which is a sample of several others received on the same subject:
 In inclose you a sample of literature that has been sent to every man at fbiE postofice suppose that the same kind has been broadcasted, all over the State. Each party received three cards. As you see. this msll 4- oones free, as Congressional Records. Is not the law violated by making use Of the mall in this manner1
 The perpetrators of this fraud ought Co be indicted and tried in the United States courts. If Republican law
 makers thus defy the law, what can they expect of other citizens7

Denman Thompson.

Denman Thompson, the veteran actor who has won fame and fortune in his play of the "Old Homestead" was born De- tober IS, 1883, in Erie County Pa' and llv- ed there until he was fourteen. when he re- turned to the old home of his parents in swanzey. N. H. In 1850 he went to Boston and joined a circus, subsequently osvelop ing into an acrobat. He became an ittnerant actor, playing low comedy parts. and in 1854 went to the Royal Lyceum Theatre Tn Toronto. where he remained until 1868. In Pittsburg, in 1875, he first appeared as Uncle Josh Whitcomb in a one-act piece ot that name which he wrote In 1855, m collaboration with George ". Ryer, MT Thompson broadened the one-act piece into a play and gave 1t the name of the old Homestead" Under that title 1t was first nroduced in Boston in April, 1886, and for more than twenty years the veteran setor has been seen continuously In the familiar character of Joshua Whitcomb.

A CALM NORTHERN VIEW

In The New Haven Register of recent date we find quite a calm and con- servative editorial on The Solid South" from which we make this ex- tract:
 Why does It hold together so strong the reason as he sees it. Being a Southern man. he should know. The Southern states" he says. If the ne- solidly for Taft" This Is not a new reason. often has 1t been shown that the solid South is solid in It's own nation. The Democratic organization is the club which keeps the negro down, But there is more than that in the reason. The habit of half cen The South Is Democratic from the in heritance of the fathers. And so 1t Is likely that The Atlanta Georgian eX- presses the real heart of the South. and says: wen be mighty glad to see you, Mir. Taft, but honestly. there's nothing doing in the way of electoral votes for you down this way"
 And yet one may not Ignore some important and fundamental changes in the situation. The Southern States are negro domination by consb ItutionalIy and the best sentiment of the North has admitted the justice of their ac- ton. Occasionally the intelligent ne- gro who now votes Is disregarding old habit and. on local issues, voting with the Democrats as did many of the negroes In Georgia on Wednesday. AL together, the negro is not the peril he may be the entering wedge that will probably not appear this year, but t may be the entering wedge that will split the solid South
 To begin with, that Southern Taft man has a very poor conception of the Southern people. If conditions were different down here, and if they had always been different there Is no doubt that Taft would poll quite a respectable vote In the South. but to say that the Southern States would vote solldly" for him is absurd. It is equivalent to saying that if there were no negroes there would be no Demo- cratic votes. and that is too ridicu- lous for serious consideration The
