THE OBJECT of these suits is to obtain a
l. decree perfecting the title to a part Of
tract Of land called "Sligo," or "Slago,"
designated as "Parcel No. 3"in the partition
of the estate OF Sarah e. Brashears, lying in
and near Takoma Park, In Montgomery coun-
ty, Maryland, and including the lots EN-.
braced in subdivision known as "Sarah e.
Brashears' Subdivision" adjoining Takoma
Park.
The bills allege that on or about the 4th
day of October, 1899, one Robert Young be-
including the above described property and
that subsequently,, by deed dated March s,
1899, certain parties reoiting themselves to
be the widow and heirs ct law Of said Robert
Young purported to convey to one Thomas
N. Wilson the above described property, but
OF the said heirs at law James R. Young
neither signs nor acknowledges said deed
and William s. Young fails to acknowledge,
although he signs the same.
That no conveyance Of their interest nor
any disposition thereof by will or otherwise
has ever been made by either the said James
X. or William s. Young, so far as the records
for Montgomery county disclose. That it is
unknown whether the said James r or
William S. Young are living or dead and
that at the time OF the execution of said deed
they were non-residents Of the State Of Mary
| land
That the title to all Of the property de-
scribed in said bills of complaint, except lots
twenty-five (25) to thirty-oue (3i), in block
twelve l2), in Sarah E. Brashears' subdivis.
ion Of land adjoining Takoma Park, is now
vested in Virginia Barclay, and that said
lots twenty-five (26) to thirty-ore (3l) are
now vested in Francis s. Larkin and Anna
A. LArkin, his wife, as joint tenants.
That the failure Of said James r. Young
and William S. Young to properly Join in
the above mentioned deed to Thomas N. Will
son casts cloud upon the title to the prop
erty described in the bills of complaint fled
herein, which the compliments desire to have
removed and the title completed and per-
fected
II is, therefore, this 9th day OF June, A.
D. 1908, by the Circuit Court for Montgomery
county, Maryland, in equity, ordered that
the complainants, by causing a copy of this
order 10 be inserted in some Newspaper
published In Montgomery county, MARYLAND

ants, OF the object and substance Of these bills
OF complaint warning them 10 appear in this
Court, in person or by solicitor, on or before
the 3rd day OF August, 1908, to show cause,
If any they have, why the decree should not
pass as prayed.

a CURIOUS MIXTURE.

The Kensington Pres, which lie generally
regarded as the Republican organ OF this
county, has developed into a strenuous ad
vocate Of the nomination Of Governor John
A. johnson, Of Minnesota, as the Demo
cratic candidate for the Presidency. More
than that, the Press has been strongly advo-
eating his election. While stoutly support
ing in It's editorial columns the cause OF the
Republican party, In its issue Of May 10Th
it published as it's own, in prominent posi-
ton on It's first page, two-column article
headed as follows, 10 large display type;
"Need Of the Country-Tiumpb Of Dem.
ocratic Principles is Imperative-With the
Nomination of John A. johnson, Progress
sive Democrat OF Integrity, Ability and
Achievement, Success is Assured"
Then follows an extended and fulsome
puff for Mr.. johnson, from which the fol.
lowing are extracts:
"Wearied Of twelve years Of overwhelm
ing defeat in national elections, hundreds Of
thousands OF Democratic voters have In the
last few months asked, Who is the man
who can lead the party to victoryr
Conditions are such in this year 1908
that united Democracy supporting strong
presidential nominee can win the presiden.
tial Office and open the way for return Of
the Democratic party TO power. Not only
do the best interests Of the Democratic par
ty call for victory this year, but 30 also do
the best interests of the nation. Twelve
years OF almost unopposed government Of
the republic by one party, and for eight Of
those years practically by one man, have
brought about conditions that are repug-
nsnt to the efficient and satisfactory admin
istration Of government supposedly OF the
people,"
The article then goes on To explain how
Democratic victory can be achieved this
year, and the country thus be saved, by the
nomination and election Of Mr.. johnson.
While Roosevelt, Taft, Hitchcock and
other big guns OF the Republican party are
proceeding TO place their ticket in the field
with the greatest apparent confidence OF
success next November, here is the Repub-
"Soh NBou u oAoht6OuciJ OOuuty, al w
beknownst to them, leading q fight and
paving the way for the triumph OF Demo-
cratic principles" which 1t declares to be at
this time imperative"
1t is to be hoped that the Republican
readers of the Press will paste Its Demo
cratic truths in their hats, as a stand off for
its future Republican broadsides, and give
Us their aid on election day in subscribing
what 1t proclaims to be "the best interests Of
the nation"
Any newspaper which boldly proclaims
that we are suffering from conditions that
are repugnant to the efficient and satisiac.
tory administration OF government sup
posedy Of the people" should support the
Democratic nominee, whoever he may be,
in Its editorial as well as It's other columns.

The Republican Presidential nominating
convention will be held next Tuesday at
Chicago. Roosevelt seems to be in control
and it appears that Secretary Taft will be
nominated, probably on the first ballot. The
Vice-Presidential nomination is in doubt.
The National Committee has been sitting
for the past week settling disputes between
contesting delegations. The large number
OF contests heard have been decided in favor
OF the Taft delegates, excepting Louisiana
where both delegations were allowed seats
for the purpose, it is said, OF effecling hsr.
mony between the whites and blacks Of the
party in that State. Mr.. Roosevelt very
dictatorially says through bis Representatives
that this is the only compromise that will
be allowed in the adjustment Of the contests
that are to follow.
