A case is cited in Chadman's en-
cyclopedia of law as follows:
The recording laws being for the
protection of subsequent purchasers,
by providing method by which any
one may ascertain the true state of
the title to any parcel of land, it is
always held, that the holder C a
prior unrecorded deed is defeated by
the holder of later deed procured
in good faith and caused to be re-
corded before that of the other, But
such subsequent purchaser in order
to be protested, must not only have
no notice by virtue of the records,
but must also be bona fide pur-
chaser for a valuable consideration,
and without actual notice of the pri-
or deed The party relying on the
older deed must show that the SUBJ
sequent purchaser had actual notice
of his claim.

JACKSON, Miss, Dec. 1S.-Coun-
sci for the State made answer today
to the bill Of Injunction filed by for
mer Governor James X. Vardaman,
who sought to stop proceedings In
chancery demanding Of the former
governor an accounting Of certain
state funds. General denial is made
of the assertions of Mr.. Vardaman
that political motives are behind the
suit, and announcement is made that
early next week a motion will be
made asking that the restraining or
der now in effect be dissolved. The
authority of the court to issue the in
junction is questioned. Appeal to
the state supreme court is promised
if the motion of the court is desied.
Mr.. vardaman, in his petition
seeking the Injunction, urged that

TAFT STARTED
DYNAMITE PROBE

OF STRONG CASE GOVERN
MENT HAD.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Dec. 15.-
President Taft personally initiated
the governments investigation both
here and at Indianapolis into the dy.
namiting conspiracy in which the Nc
Namara brothers figured.
The President when he visited Los
Angeles on Oct. 16, was apprised by
Oscar Lawler, then an assistant to At
torney General John D. Fredericks, of
the strong case built up by the latter
against the McNamaras.
The Presidents action went a long
way toward clearing a perplexing sit
uation.
When the question as to the stand
labor unions might take if the pres
ident assumed an inquiring attitude
in the case arose, it is said, Mr.. Taft
told Lawler he would proceed regard
less of the result Of the political ele-
ment involved.

SUPREME COURT
OPINION ANNULS
CLAUSE IN CHARTER
LEGAL NOTICE NOT A BAR TO
LIABILITY FOR ITS OWN
TORTS.
CASE REVERSED and REMANDED
Suit of Huntington and Fleming
Against the City of Columbia Is
Ordered Back For New Hearing In
the Circuit Court.

In the decisions of the Supreme
Court Saturday there was one in
which the city of Columbia was vital
ly interested, and the decision lirtu-
ally yitiates one clause in the city
charter in its application to this
case. The suit was that of Dunning-
ton and Fleming against the City Of
Columbia, and grew out of the alleg-
ed wrongful lowering of the grade
on Garden street and damages alleg-
ed.
1t was tried in the circuit court
her and verdict for the city was re-
turned in response to the plea that
the city had not received notice in
writing before the expiration of thir-
ty days next after the right of action
had accrued. The complainants cos
tended that this was not necessary,
inasmuch as the city itself was guilty
of the tort. The case went to the
Supreme Court with the result that
it was reversed and remanded for a
new trial. The court of last resort
holding that the city was not releas-
ed from liability for it's torts because
of certain provisions in it's charter
requiring legal notice. The case is
ordered back and is to be tried on its
merits.
The impression has been that this
action for damages was on account Of
the change of the grade on Sixth
Street, but this is an error. The
property holders there made the
grade themselves, but the alleged
damage to the Sixth property grew
out Of the change fgrade on Garden
street, the alley way entrance to the
Sixth street being from Garden.
The clause referred to requiring
the legal notice, according to this de-
cision, does not apply in similar cases
and it is likely that there are other
cases which will now be filed against
the city on the same grounds as that
of the Huntington and Fleming case.

aid to state that letters with these
stamps on the front of the envelope
cannot go through the mails. In
fact letters with anything except the
regulation government stamp fasten-
ed on the front is denied the use of
the mails. These may, however, be
placed on the back of the envelope,
and according to a late ruling Of the
postoffice department, the sale of the
red cross stamps is allowed in the
lobby Of the postoffice. These
stamp are the only privileged article,
however, nothing else being allowed
sold or advertised in the building
except matters pertaining to the bus
mess of the postofice, internal reve-
nue. department or the army and
navy.
Those sending letters with Red
Cross stamps attached will avoid
much annoyance to themselves and
to the postoffice force if they will
comply with these regulations care
fully.
In addition to the usual effort to
accommodate the public and to facili-
tate the handling of the increased
volume of the mails during the week
prior to the holidays, it is the pur-
pose of the postmaster to put clerk
in the lobby OF the postoffice 10 as
sist those coming there with pack
ages to mail, whose duty it will be
to weigh all packages and mark
thereon the amount Of postage neces-
sary, and thus enable the patron to
state exactly the amount Of postage
necessary, and avoid theunusual con-
fusion and sometimes congestion, in
cident to the holiday mail.
At times like the present the postal
forces are generally overworked, and
if the public will but cooperate with
the suggestions herein made by the
postmaster there will be much con-
fusion and annoyance avoided.
Persons on rural routes, too, would
do we'll to have their packages all in
good shape by the time Of the arrival
of the carrier, and not keep him wait
ing a moment His mails are natu-
rally heavier, more difficult to handle
and more time is required, and the
patrons cannot do anything that will
make them more thankful than to
consider his time and comfort while
they are requiring his services.

The fling in the Office of county

was almost fifty years old a few
days ago, brought out some COM

law and what might result in such

much stress cannot be put on the
value of recording deed.
It is the accepted opinion by the
public that a valid deed of convey

a clear title. And this, IL appears,
Is true, ii lie deed be recorded in a
reasonable length of time after de-
livery which gives notice to the pub
lie that the title to the property Is
in the party last named. But, for in
stance, if the purchaser should fall to
record his deed, and the conveyor
should resell that particular piece OF
land by mistake or design and this
last deed be recorded, the subse-
Quent purchaser would have title to
the property and the former pur-
chaser's right would be defeated, and
his only recourse would be against
the conveyor, the subsequent pur-
chaser retaining title.
In case the deed is not recorded
and Judgment is rendered against

notice of such transfer, the one hold
