settled the case out of court The lit

ing to purchase. 1t is idle to say that
such an instrument would not be a
cloud upon the title as matter of
law, when every attorney knows that
it would be a cloud as matter of
fact.
Commenting upon decisions which
hold that instruments of this charac-
ter do not constitute a cloud upon the
title, Mr.. Pomeroy says: while this
doctrine may be settled by the weight
of authority l must express the opin-
ion that it often operates to produce
denial of justice. 1t leads to the
strange scene, almost daily in the
courts, OF defendants urging that the
instruments under which they claim
are void, and therefore that they
ought to be permitted to stand un-
molested and of judges deciding that
the court cannot interfere because
the deed or other instrument is void:
while from a business point of view,
every intelligent person knows that
the instrument is sCrious injury to
the plaintiffs title, greatly depreciat-
ing its market value; and the judge
himself, who repeats the rule, would
neither buy the property while thus
affected, nor loan a dollar upon its
security This doctrine is, in truth,
based upon mere verbal logic, rather
than upon considerations of justice
and expediency." III. Pomeroy's Eq.
Jr. 437
1t is suggested that the complaint
in this case does not allege that the
sale would constitute cloud upon
plaintiffs title, and while this is true
to the extent that the exact words
"cloud upon title" are not employed,
yet the facts that must necessarily
result in a cloud are stated, followed
by the allegation that such sale
would be "to the great and irrepara-
BILE injury to plaintiffs title" Upon

alton is sufficient

Gus Evidence Of His Purpose to Show

Hon. Woodrow Wilson, governor of
New Jersey, has come very sharply
into the political limelight In the last
few months by reason of his fearless
and effective advocacy of the rights
Of the people to govern themselves
without interference from the great
corporations and vested interests.
Governor Wilson is a native Of Vir-

Dec. 2S, 1856. He is the son Of a
Presbyterian minister Of Scotch Irish
descent. AS a boy he lived in the
south and at the age Of nineteen en-

he was graduated in 1879. He took a
course in law at the University Of

he is against special privilege Of ev-

against the high protective tariff sys-
TEN and what he terms the outrageous
aine-Aldrich tariff law, and perhaps
1t is unnecessary to add that these
are no new convictions ON Governor
Wilson's part, but are the fruit Of a
lifetime Of study and observation OF
political affairs, of life spent in train
ing for active public service for which
the opportunity has just come to him.
In his home life the governor is su-
premely happy, His tastes are quiet,
and his charming. wife and three
bright and attractive daughters are
the center of all of his recreations and
amusements. Rather fond of the open
air, he is not sportsman in any sense
OF the term, although he occasionally
finds opportunity to play golf, which
he does Very badly, with some of his
most intimate friends. When 1t was
