Emil Herbeck VS.. NJ. j. Kelly and
Frank Steinman, copartners, etc,
under the firm name of Kelly e.
Steinman. In the Court of Com
mon Pleas of Wayne county,
March Term 1910, No. SO.
On the 11th day of April, 1910, a
summons was issued in the above
case, returnable the third Monday
of June, 1910, and plaintiff filed his
declaration or statement on Novem-
ber 12, 1910. December 13, 1910,
the plaintiff entered a rule on the
defendants to plead, which was serv-
ed upon their attorneys the same
day, and on December IA, 1910, the
defendants, by their attorneys, en-
tered a plea of non assumpsit, pay
ment with leave, ETC., and they fur
ther filed an afiidavit of defense on
December 81, 1910.
On March 6, 1911, upon motion,
the plaintiff obtained permission to
amend his declaration and same day
filed an amended declaration. On
March 10, 1911, an order was made
that an affidavit of defense to the
new declaration be filed and defend
ants plead within fifteen days.
There does not appear upon the rec
ord or in any of the files that any
notice of this order was ever given
to the defendants. No affidavit of
| defense was filed, and on March 81,
1911, upon praecipe filed, the pro-
thonotary entered judgment against
the defendants by default.
On April IS, 1911, rule was grant
ed on plaintiff to show cause why
| the judgment so entered should not
be stricken from the record.
In the absence of any notice to the
defendants or their attorneys, of the
order that an affidavit of defense
should be filed to the new declara-
tion, or statement, within 15 days,
we are clearly of the opinion that
the entry of the Judgment in de-
| fault of such affidavit of defense was
improper
The Court did not attach to the
order that the affidavit of defense
be entered, that in default thereof
! judgment should be entered against
| the defendants. The defendants
certainly were entitled to notice
either given to themselves or to
their attorneys and the record does
not show any such notice or service
In addition to this, unless there be
provided for a case of this kind a
rule of court, we are of the opinion
that the filing of the original aft
davit of defense was a full compli-
ance with the law in respect there.
to, and that after plea filed, which
was obtained by the issue of a rule
by the plaintiff, the defendants could
not be compelled to file an affidavit
of defense until after a rule was
granted upon them to show cause
The defendant by his own laches oil
neglect or failure to file a proper
declaration or statement, cannot har
ass the, defendants nor keep then
continually repeating the filing o.
papers.
And now, May 8, 1911, in accord
ance with the aforegoing opinion

THE GREAT REVIVAL OF PATRIOTISM.

Shall the Democratic party be Aldrichized?"
Shall the Democratic National Convention in
1912 be controlled by Adrch Democracy, or shall
DO you believe the Democratic party should be
kept free from entanglments with special nterests?"
Very we'll, then, listen to William Jennings
Bryan, who explains. how it be done-explains it
in blackfaced type that scatters most of the first
page of the Commoner, explains it in simple
that little child understand.
Now this is the way to the Democratic party
and prevent the perpetraton of whatever ourages
about to be perpetrated:
Mr.. Bryan will do his part in the effort to protect
the Democratic party from Aldrichism. On the
stump and through the Commoner he will insist that
the made by the party during the past
teen shall not be thrown away that the special
interests shall not control the convention; that it's
platform shall be honest and unequivocal and its
candidates devoted to genuine Democratic doctrine.
In order to place his views before a larger num-
ber of people, Mr. Bryan has given instructions that
his paper, the Commoner be sent to every sub
scrber for period of two years for the sum of ST.
the regular price for year
You invited to join Mr. Bryan in this great
fight.
What could be simple certain /?
But if you cannot stand the Commoner two years for
dollar send three dollars for the Outlook Theodore
Roosevelt contributing editor, and help the
publican party from sin and shame-N. Y World.
And if this also fails send us $3.50 and be happy

GOOD MANLY TALK.

In his best and manifest vein, says the New York
sun, is Mr.. Tafs speech to the personally conducted
Grangers taken to Washington to impress upon him
and Congress with what ruin for American farmers
the Canadian reciprocity agreement is big, and more
particularly to threaten him with great loss of Re-
publican votes that infamous pact goes through:
You say that the Republican farmers are going
to desert if put that through. am very sorry
if that is to be the because l have personal
liking for the Republican farmers just a little mite
than for the Democratic farmers, although they

must hold equally in my care.
But my conviction with respect to the advant-
age this treaty is very deep. So far the effect
of this on my personal political fortunes, it ought
not to influence and does not influence me in the
slightest
Right or wrong, he believes that the measure is
for the general good and he is not going to be bull

No doubt the personally conducted farmers will
enjoy themselves in Washington; possibly they will
send for their automobiles and home in these. At
any rate they know that not even the believing

THE MARSH-CHILD'S LULLABY
by Frederick Brush.


Sweet Eileen's agoin' to sleep,
Down where the little May-frogs
peep,
Where the water floweth deep,
Fair Eileen's agoin' to sleep.
There the pale eyed pickerel lads
Doze beneath the lily pads,
And hftcen hundred frogs or so
Have no other place to go.
Within the old stump's hollow cup
All night the waves go plupp,
plupp, plupp,
And when the sky is clouded Ger
Some times you hear the horn
pouts snore.
Hark, Eileen along the grass
hear the whispering marsh breeze
pass
1t wanders off across the hill,
And now the very stars lie still.

Y. NJ. c. A. NOTES

The meeting Sunday afternoon was
splendid in every way. There was
good attendance and the address was
far beyond the expectation of any OF
those recent. 1t is no wonder that
Mr.. Smith is a success in his business
interests, judging from the enthusiasm
and common sense that he puts into
his address.
MIR. Smith first reviewed the status
of the business world, calling atten.
tion to the fact that the outlook for
the year Is the best that II has been
since before the panic. He said that
all over the East business is picking
up and that most of the large inter-
ests are running full force, but that
in the western part of the country the
developments are about year delay
ed, largely because they were about
this length of time later in being eff
fected by the panic. He argued Wig
orously that men should be optimis-
tic If they hoped for any sort of sue
cess in life, that man generally gets
what he expects. Mr.. Smith urged all
young men to have confidence in
themselves, IN their ability to do
things, and that they should not be all
the time depending upon the mind and
judgment of others. Each man must
learn to care for himself if he hopes
for success. Mr.. Smith then urged
that there are many habits that deter
mans optimism and success and
called attention to the fact that
tobacco was one of the greatest
hindrances to success and long
evity that we have. In conclu-
sion the speaker made an earnest
plea that the men give themselves
to making right use Of the opportuni
ties of 1911, that we do these things
that are for the good of our fellowmen
and not simply to chasing the al
mighty dollar.
The music for this meeting was fur
nished by Mrs. Mccoy, Miss Coch
ran and Mrs. w. e. Jackson of the
Methodist Protestant church. They
furnished two vocal duets and assist
ed with the other music. Both oi
these selections we're splendid and all
of the men hope the ladies can come
again soon.
The meeting next Sunday will be
addressed by the Rev. l.. D. Greene
an author and lecturer, who is trav
cling the entire country, making 9
special study of the American home
The topic for Sunday will be ''The
Ideal Christian Home, the Mora
