JUDGMENT OF PETITIONER
In Case OF Herbert A. Fogg VS.. Lin
wood c. Tyler, Bangor.

-
A decision in a case involving the
afIars OF the bankrupt banking house
OF Tyler. Fogg & Co. of Bangor is con-
tanned in rescript by Associate JUS
tice Philbrook from the supreme court,
which was received Tuesday as fol-
lows:
Herbert A. Fogg VS.. Linwood C. Ty-
Ter. Philbrook, j. Interlocutory pro-
ceedings arising in the above entitled
cause wherein c. j. Gillian is petit
TONER
The plaintiff and defendant were
formerly co-partners under the firm
name of Tyler, Fogg & Co., and en-
gagged in a private banking business.
The petitioner had deposited funds
with the partnership; and While
the deposits were so existing, the CO.
partnership became insolvent. At the
time that the firm was declared insol-
vent, one of the co-partners, Herbert
A. Fogg, was of unsound mind and
under guardianship. r. S. Chap. s.,
Sec. % provides that the. estate of an
insane person under guardianship be-
ing incolvent is TO be settled, accord
Ing to the general provisions of that
vert estates of deceased persons This
petitioner presented his claim to the
receiver and obtained a small diNl-
dent. hut without fault on his part
failed to present his claim before the
commissioners appointed by the pro-
bate court. Other creditors presented
their claims before these commission
e1s and the funds in the hands of the
guardian were completely used in
the payment of claims thus present
ed. The petitioner now asks that he
may receive payment fro mthe receiv-
CT of an amount equal to the per
centage which he would have receiv-
ed from the commissioners if he had
presented his claim to them.
Held:
1.-The funds of the partnership and
the individual funds of the persons
composing that partnership, subject to
the payment of individual debts, are
all holden as assets for the payment
of partnership liabilities.
,. The assets thus existing, wheth-
er in the custody and control of the
partnership or in the custdy and con-
troll of the individual. when needed
for payment of partnership debts,
constitute a joint fund and not sep
arate funds.
8. The fact that our statute requires
the individual assets of a member of
the partnership under guardianship to
be administered according to certain
statutory requirements. does not
change the joint nature of partnership
assets when needed to pay partner
ship debt.
4. That this petitioner, through no
fault of his own, having failed TO OBJ
tain from the commissioners upon the
insolvent estate of one of the partners
percentage equal to that received
by other creditors of the same class,
is entituled to a special payment from
the funds now in the hands of the re-
ceiver, to an amount which will in

centage equivalent to that received by

BRONCHITIS SUFFERER
Takes Druggists Advice With SpIen
did Result.


If any one should know the worth
of a medicine, it is the retail druggist
who sells it every day in the week
and is in a position to know what
remedy gives the best satisfaction
Mrs. Frank H. Uline of West Sand
Lake, n. Y, says: For years / was
a great sufferer from bronchitis. Last
July l had a severe attack and my
friends thought l could not re-
cover from it. Then | was advised
by my druggist to try Vinol, which
did with wonderful results. My cough
has left me; l have gained in weight
and appetite and l am as strong as
ever 1 was. 1 advise all who have
bronchitis, chronic coughs. or who
are run down to try Vinol."
1t is the combined action of the
medicinal curative elements of the
Gods liver, without oil, aided by the
blood making and strength creating
properties of tonic iron that makes
Vinol so efficient in such cases.

Potatoes and Rice.

Reports indicate that potatoes are
another food product which foreign
countries will grow for Americans
under the Democratic tariff law.
We have been growing almost all
the potatoes We have needed, for in
stance, the last two months of 1912
under a Republican tariff, only Il 900
bushels of potatoes were imported
into the United States. In the last
two months of last year, under a
Democratic tariff, nearly 100000
bushels of potatoes were brought in
to this country. This means that more
than a million dollars which had been
going into the pockets of American
potato raisers were sent to foreign
potato growers. II is reported that
the foreign acreage of potatoes is to
be doubled and hereafter increased
year by year.
The southern rice growers have
faired better at the hands of the
Democratic tariH makers. The Wilson
tariff imposes duty of almost sixty
cents a bushel on rice.

Statesman Underwood may hear

question and what his people say TO
MIN may not be pleasant, declares an

Is an iron-producing center. Its
manufacturers do not seem To. think
much OF the Democratic revision OF
the tariff, IL we may Judge from an
article by Edwin G. Eckel in the Bal
timore Manufacturers Record, in
which the writer says:
AZ the outset, there arises the
question as to whether the revised
tariffs will help in any way through
possible reductions in manufacturing
costs. The advocates Of low tariffs
always imply, even If they do not state
directly, that all our American in
dustries will benefit in the long run
from lower tariffs, even ifthey suffer
temporary disarrangement. Now, It is
obvious that such benefits must be
derived either from "a increased
selling prices, 20 wider markets or
go decreased manufacturing costs.
Unless the low tariff helps out in one
OF these three directions, its final
effect must be bad.
"ot the three possible good effects,
It Will be clear enough that low
tariff certainly does not increase the
average price obtainable for iron
products AS for the effect of the new
tarth on markets, it will be seen later
that, far from broadening them, 1t has
already shown tendency toward
making them narrower; $50 far as
southern furnaces are concerned. The
only possible remaining direct ad-
vantage of low tariffs must lie, there
fore, in the direction Of decreased
manufacturing costs.
AS the southern iron industry is
entirely self-contained, supplying it.
self with ore and coke from its own
local reserves, 1t can be seen that the
decrease in costs must come about
either through increased efficiency OF
the labor now employed, or through
decreases in the rate OF wages paid.
1t is indeed likely enough that there
will be certain economies effected
finally along both of these lines; but
1t does not seem likely that any
political party will claim credit for
either of these effects Of the new
tariff. Votes do not come to a politl-
clan because he has succeeded in
giving men the alternative between
working harder for the same pay or
taking less pay for the same work"
When the Democratic party in the
Illuminating presence Of past expert
ence deliberately committed the same
economic error for the third time, it
wrote itself down incompetent. The
ship Of prosperity is running on the
rocks again. The passengers can not
get a new pilot too soon,

Democracy's Design.

The Progressive party is not in ac-
cord with the Wilson administration.
That party like the Republican party
appreciates the fact that Democratic
principles, and policies are, not good
for the country and that fact has
again been proved by the Wilson ad-
ministr9tion. Democratic leaders and
the Democratic press know the attitude
of the ProgressiFeS in this respect.
They know it is an aversion to
Democraey's course,
Such facts and such knowledge,
however, do not cause the Demo
cratic leaders and the Democratic
press to cease its laudations OF the
Progressive party and its affected
solicitude and friendship for the latter
party.
At this particular time, Democracy
sees the urgent necessity Of assuming
to be the. friend of the Progressive
party and to encourage It to remain
intact and not to have any amalga-
nation with the Republican party.
1t knows that it attained power
through division of those opposed to
it and the fact that the breach is fast
closing impels it to strenuous and
desperate efforts now to delude Pro-
gressives that it is their duty to con-
tinue to hold aloof from the Repub-
hcans. This line of persuasion is
based solely on the hope that by his
tory repeating itself, Democracy may
not only retain its present power but
be enabled to intrench itself where
Il has not yet gotten even foothold.
There are numerous rank and file
voters who did not support the Re-
publican national nominees two years
ago who have become fully aware

eeNaito a Fixed WORD.

When the baneful effects of free
trade tariff legislation upon American
enterprise were being called to the
attention of the country last winter,
the free-trade leaders shouted in
chorus: Calamity howlers, wait!
Give our law a trial" That word
wait" has grown into fixed admin
istration policy, not only as to tariff
but other questions. In this game Of
waiting" the American wage Garner
is handed the free soup house," the
American consumer is expected to
keep waiting for the high cost of liv-
ing to come. down. OF course this
waiting will be free: that is, the
American voter will freely EXPRESS
himself at the next election.-P6ilippi

A DUN Grny Color.

Secretary of Commerce Redfeld, the
humorist Of President Wilson's cabi-
net, has placed the business atmos-
phere of the country on a sort Of
commercial weather map such as is
used by the weather bureau, and has
discovered that prosperity exists only
in one manufacturing industry, and
that but in single locality. This is
in and about the Lake area where
automobiles are made" and where, he
says, a high barometer also pre-
walls"
Mr.. Redfeld announced his startling
discovery in the course OF an address
delivered before the Chamber OF Com
merce at Raleigh, N. G., the day be-
fore yesterday. He discussed business
conditions-that is, he was supposed to
discuss them but nowhere in the course
Of his testing does he get nearer to
Industrial business, which the Demo-
cratic tariff principally affects, than
his brief allusion to certain auto
mobile manufacturing district. Doubt
less he based this barometrical con-
lecture upon recent announcements
that thousands of men had been laid
off or had had their wages reduced
in the automobile factories therein
GLIDING the Ford plant, where a
philanthropical experiment is being
worked out Mr.. Redfield also likely
had in mind the recent storming of
that plant by many thousands Of
workmen looking for work.
"All through the great central part
of the country, where the bulk OF our
wheat is grown" informed the secre-
tary of laughter, would be another
great area of fair weather and high
pressure. Over the great cotton areas
of the South would be no depression,
not even unsettled conditions, but a
normal looking for great agricultural
fayors expected to come" "Over the
northwestern states would be found
section Of loo barometer and
marked depression. If the state of
mind of the different parts OF the
country could be shaded in colors,"
he continued, 1.-THE great body of the
West would be white, while an area
of dull gray would represent our
northwestern states"
The national court Jester seems to
have borrowed q pair OF spectacies
from the federal Department of Agri-
culture with which to scan the bnsi-
ness map. He could see nothing save
few automobile factories but the
wheat of the West and the cotton
of the South. The great manufactur-
ing industries OF the country, from
which the bulk Of complaint has come
regarding the Democratic tariff act,
were not discernible to the Redfeld
eye They were, most likely. obscured
by that dull gray color with which
he shaded part of his map. And, the
fact also seems to have been over
looked by the secretary OF national
amusement that both wheat and cot
ton must enter into manufacture. and
