Thr once famous editor of the
Chicago Times is in fact a hopeles?
inbecile. In the probate court at
Chicago last Saturday, a petition
for the appointor) nt of a conser-
vator for Wilbur F. Story edit' rand
and proprietor of the Chicago Times,
was filed by his nephew,Edward R.
Ch-pin of South Bend, Ind. It Ins
been pretty wtll understood for
some time that Mr. Story was not
in his right mind, but until to d»y
the report to that effect has not been
public. The petitioner says that
Mr. Story is distracted, and not
competent to take care of his valu-
able estate; that he id frl years of
»ge; that he has no children ; that
his next kin are Anson L. Story, his
brother, Mrs. Mary E. Farrand, his
sister, Mrs. Mary E. Anderson, his
niece,, and the petitioner. These
relatives with Mr. Story's principal
creditors join in the petition for the
appointment of a conservator for
the care and management of the
estate arid ask that a jury be called
to inquire into his sanity. A Deputy
sheriff attempted to serve a sum-
mons on Story this afternoon at his
residence, but Mrs. Story objected.
Judge Lyman Thurman, who is Mr.
Story's attorney, was appealed to,
and he advised Mrs. Story to allow
the service, which she did. It is un-
derstood that all parties will agree
to the appointment, as conseivator,
of either Judge Lambert Tree,
Judge T. Lyle Dickey or Gen. Single-
ton.
Wonder nhat the Houston Post
means by the foollowing:
•'Cleveland and Hendricks will
right the outrage inflicted upon
Tilden and Hendricks."
I)o we calculate the chance of de-
feat? Not at all. With a man at
the bead who wears Tildtn's mantle
( 1
there is no such probability as de-
feat.—Houston Post.
The usual rule is for the boy to
finUh up the old man's clothes, and
ordinarily the boy being the small-
er, there is no difficulty in his get-
ting inside of the clothes; but ns
Cleveland is a big man, weighing
nearly :>00 pounds, and Tilden only
weighing about 100 pounds, it will
require as much management to ad-
just 1 ilden's mantle to the person
of Cleveland as was required to
make a platform at Chicago to
mean both free trade and protec-
tion.
The defection of Carl Schurz to-
wards the Republican nominees
caused a great deal of happiness
among the Democrats and the Dem-
ocratic papers assumed the author-
ity to declare, that the German ele-
ment was opposed to P.laine. The
contrary seems to be the truth. The
Germans formerly affiliating with
the Republicans; but even Demo-
crats are going over to Blaine. We
subjoin a statement from the St.
Louib Westlich Post, one of the
leading organs of the Germans and
of Democratic proclivites. The
Post says:
"The strongest man has been
nominate! by the Democrats, and
we detract nothing of the good
words we hive said concerning him.
But the more we tried to familiarize
ourselves with the idea of a Demo-
crat ai the head of our national ad-
ministration the less we are able to
reconcile ourcelves to it, The longer
this was agitated upon us 60 much,
the more vivid became the reminis-
cences of the past, and to-day we d.»
not feel that we are justified in mak-
ing any guarantee that a Democrat
—be his name Grover Cleveland
even—would present an Uncompro-
mising front under all circumstan-
ces to the menacing onslaught of
the Southern 'brigadiers.'
'•From the vice presidential can-
didate, who, in the shape of the
dyed-in-the-wool old Bourbon, Hen-
dricks, has been placed at Cleve-
land's side, one can anticipate still
lees a firm resistance to the south-
ern aggression, should any chance—
that which the unforeotten past
renders possible—reqnire such re-
sistance. The Wectbch Post op-
posed the "o'd ticket" eight years
•go, simply on account of this man
ifendricks. No, the name of Cleve.
land, alor.e, cannot make the Dem-
ocratic declaration of principals,
The Mora Grant.
A law suit has lately been com-
menced between certain parties in
regard to the title to a part of the
Mora grant in New Mexico nnd the
fact that Stephen I?. Elk ins, a prr-
minent republican, formerly a re-
sident of that Territory, is, with
others, made a party defendant,
moves the Times to emit a screed
against the republican party which
for ignorance nnd malice is seldom
equaled. The Mora grant was made
to certain of his royal subjects by
a king of Spain more than a cen-
tury ago, when New Mexico was a
province of the vice royalty of
Mexico, and ultra-marine posses-
sion of the Spanish crown. It has
remained the private property of
the grantees and. their descendants
and legal representatives to this
day. The protection of these titles
was stipulated and provided for by
the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo,
by which the United States acquir-
ed the territory at the close of the
Mexican war. The title was subse-
quently solemey confirmed bv ac'
of congress, the lands surveyed and
segregated from the public domain
and patented to the owners by the
United States. Just how political
parties, candidates or platforms are
likely to be effected by a controver-
sy in court in regard to an interest
in a land title which is oldar thsn
the declaration of independence,
will only be perceptible to Bourbon
scribblers who never learn anything
that is right, or forget anything that
is wrong.
