Supreme Court

In the Supreme Court, State OF
North Dakota, April, 1912, Term.
North Dakota Lumber Company,
Plaintiff and Appellant, VS.. VIM. L.
Haney. ct al, Defendant and Respond
ent.
l. Upon the ordinary sale Of land
upon crop contract, where the title
is reserved as security for the pur.
chase price, the vendor Is in practi-
cally the same position as though he
had decided the land to the vendee
and taken back a mortgage for the
purchase price. When the vendeer
therefore, becomes liable upon a me.
chanics lien against the land, the in.
terest of the vendor is not subjected
to the lien unless it is shown that he
acquiesced in the purchase
2. The purchaser of the legal title
from the vendor, subject to the liens
of record, takes the same title % had
the vendor. That is he takes the leg
al title subject to the crop contract
and the lien. He is In the same posi-
ton as though he had purchased the
mortgage mentioned in paragraph
one, and this interest is not subject
to the lien.
8. Words in the said deed from the
vendor to the third basement imply
ing that the third person takes the
land subject to "liens of record re-
late to the contract between those
parties only and do not imply any
promise upon which the lien holder
can compel the third person SO 9ur-
chasing to assume the lien.
4. If after such purchase by the
third person, the vendee surrenders
his crop contract to him, the later in
terest is subject to the lien, but the
prior title, which we have seer is
similar to the mortgage, does not
merge in his final title so as to make
the mechanics lien a first lien upon
the fee title to the hand. The court
will decree that the equity of the
vendee be sold to satisfy the lien,
but such lien will be inferior to the
amount due upon the contract.
Syllabus by the court.

THE SLOPES DAILY PAPER.

The Bismarck Daily Tribune, while
it is a state daily paper. attempting
to cover the news of the state as
far as possible, always covers the
news of the Missouri slope first. The
people of the eighteen counties Of the
slope consider the Tribune as their
home daily news medium. They want
the Tribune first, because they know
that the Tribune always represents
their interests. How to completely
cover the daily happenings of the
slope Is not an easy problem to con-
tend with. The editor Of the Tribune
has hoped that the newspaper men IN
each of the thriving towns of the
slope would find it to their interest
to see that the Tribune was supplied
with the news of each community as
promptly as possible. In that respect
the newspaper men of these towns
have done exceedingly we'll and there
10 no complaint to one as Tar as tnel
services are concerned. The Tribune
has faithful correspondents all over
the slope, and their efforts largely
help to make the Tribune the slopes
paper. AS far as possible the Tri-
bune keeps a staff correspondent in
this territory, and in other ways has
never considered expense If the peo-
pie of this section of the state could
be served with the news. Mr.. c. s.
Winter of the Tribune reportorial
staff has spent considerable time this
summer throughout the slope, and the
Tribune points with pride to the work
he has been able to accomplish. Just
now he is at Dickinson, reporting the
state association meeting Of the re-
tail merchants of North Dakota, and
his complete story as 1T appears In
the Tribune today displays both the
talents of Mr.. Winter, and the enter
prise of the Tribune.

LANDED ON STRAW PiYE.

MANDAN, N. D.. July 1O.-Joe klef-
er and Willie Huber were returning
from the city when their team became
frightened at an engine which was
standing BY the roadside. Kiefer was
driving at the time. but knowing ne
could not hold the horses, he handed
the reirs to Huber and jumped from
the wagon. Mr.. Huber tried to hold
the horses, but the reins broke, at
which the team turned and Ditch3d
their driver onto the remains of an
old straw pile and fled across the
fields. They finally came to q stop
in a freshly plowed field close to

statesman was busy In many spheres,
however, and had bis name 7romi-
nently associated with several other
laws OF large consequence, 1t was ne
cessary to give II a more specific
term, and il was called the land grant
statute. the agricultural college act
and other names which we're more or
less distinctive. 1t was one OF the
many measures by which the govern
ment has made agriculture by far the
largest activity in les W sphere OF
any known to the world. No other
country closely approaches the Unit
ed States in the volume and the va.
riety OF its farming, stock raising and
fruit growing interests. For several
years past the annual product Of the
country's farms and plantations has
exceeded $4,000, 0OO, 900.
The agricultural college act fol-
lowed a few weeks after the free
homes law was signed. Thus June
and July. 1862, were landmarks in
the development OF American farming.
The progress in this vast field which
has been made in this half a century
Is s%tupendous. From the beginning
the government has borne a promi-
nent part in this development. 1t ere
ated the Department OF Agriculture
in 1889, with its head a member Of
the cabinet. The work of this de-
partment and Of the agricultural ex.
pertinent stations costs the govern
ment several millions OF dollars an
nually, but this outlay much more
than pays for itself. In 1902 the ma
tional irrigation act was passed as a
supplement to the free homes law Of
1862, and under it millions of acres
of desert or semi-desert are being
transformed into the most productive
lands in the world. While much i'm
p~rovefent in American farming is
still to be made, something along this
line has already heen accomplished,
for the yield per acre, as compared
with forty years ago, has increased
20 per cent for cotton, rs per cent for
corn and so per cent for wheat.

SUPPORTING HANNA.

Grand folks HeealQ. Inc letteT
from Insurance Commissioner Taylor
rendering his congratulations to Mr..
Hanna on his nomination for govern
or, and offering his support is ty2i.
cal OF a number that have been writ.
ten by men closely identified with the
progressive organization within the
republican party. Mr.. Taylor is a
member Of the Progressive league,
and he was an ardent and outspoken
supporter of Mr.. Buchanan for the
nomination. The republican voters
had a chance to express themselves
at the polls, they did so express them.
selves, and the mar whom they select
ed as their standad bearer in the state
campaign vas not Mr.. Buchanan but
Mr.. Hanna. Mr.. Taylor makes it clear
that his support of n candidate was
not because OF any belief in the un-
fitness Of the other, but because Of
two candidates, either of whom vas
perfectly eligible, he preferred the
one. The other nan having been Sc.
lected, he is for the other man.
That position is perfectly clear and
logical. Any other position would be
illogical. 1t is one thing to refuse to
support a party nominee because of a
conviction Of his unfitness. 1t is a
mistaken idea Of party loyalty that
requires a man to support a man
whom he is convinced is VIGOROUSLY
unfit, even though he may have re-
ceived the party nomination. But no
such consideration existed in this
case. Speaking of the two major can
didates for governor alone, either was
well qualified. Both could not be
chosen. And for a voter to decline
to support n capable man merely
because his own personal favordte
places politics on the low level of per-
OO08l desire, anu SnAP.
!. It is not necessary to launch into
fulsome eulogies in order to place MI.
Hanna's candidacy before the state.
Few men are better known by repu.
tation. He served acceptably in the
state legislature. His services IN
congress has been marked by indus
try and careful attention to the wants
OF his constituents. He is a business
man who has made a success OF MS
business. He is liable and willing TO
devote all the time necessary to tne
service of the state in the oh1ce OF
governor. There is not the sllgntest
reason to doubt that he will perform
the duties of his Office in a capable
emcient manner and such letters as
that Of Commissioner Taylo" indicate
that these facts are generally recog-
nized throughout the sta:e.
