total purchase price. Snowdon planned
to buy the property from Derrick and
Howell, but ballSed when he said they
failed to give him a good deed They
alleged that the deed which they of
fered was good. SnoWden filed a de-
murrer, saying that adjoining owners
had a privilege of seWering through
the property and that a judgment had
been given against it, which was unsat-
isfied. Judge Waste sustained the de-
murrer, deciding in effect that the deed
was not good. and this action was taken
as settling the suit.

Was Founded dates. Ages, Votes, &c.

The people Of the United states will
choose their twenty-second elected Pres
ident on Tuesday. November g. 1908. Since
the formation OF the Union twenty-five
citizens have occupied the White House.
Five Of these succeeded from the Vice
Presidency to the Presidency By demise
OF the Chief OIagistrate-Tyler in 1871.
Fillmore In 1850. Johnson in 1866, Arthur
in 1851, and Roosevelt in 1901. Nine Pres
idents served so satisfactorily that the
electors intrusted the reins of govern
ment to them n second time. These were
Washington jefferson. Madison. Monroe.
Jackson Lincoln Grant Cleveland, Nc
Kinley. and, properly speaking, Roosevelt.
Mr.. Cleveland was tho only President
who. having gotten down and out got
up and in again. Mr. Roosevelt was the
first and only President who, serving an
unexpired term, was continued in Office
for the succeeding four years by election

The Hartford Courant devotes an entire
page OF a recent issue 10 an account of
the Republican national convention Of
1850. which is interesting. not only his
torically. but in its suggestion Of the
steady evolution Of our President-making
system since that time.
No person interested in the politics Of
to-day can read it without signing for
the good old days, when affairs were
less cut-and-dried than now. and when a
national convention of the Republican
party was a scene Of real stress and
struggle. This one began on Wednesday,
and by a quarter past u on Saturday
night had proceeded no further than TO
hear the speeches OF presentation in be-
half Of the various candidates. Sunday
was a day Of great excitement at the Chi
cago hotels and throughout the city.
Discussion OF the probable results Of the
balloting. which would open on Monday
morning occupied the attention Of the
nation. The Sunday newspapers had for
once something 20 talk about. 70 express

and until 10 o'clock that night, when the
convention adjourned, after having TWEEN

a roll call. On Tuesday morning the
struggle was renewed amid still greater
excitement, and until the thirty-fOurth
ballot no indication pointing toward the
result could be sighted. Grants highest
vote had been 3l2. on that ballot, his low
