An Expensive Law Suit. After a long siego of litigation the appellate court, by its action, has closed the damage suit brought several years ago by Miss Mary Moberlv, a Gosport school teach

er, against James U. Henry, now

cashier of the State bank at Ind

iana polis, but at that time a mem

ber of lie Gosport school board. Miss Moheily in settling with the school trustees, claimed more!

than was'allowed her and on ac-

count of her conduct at the time Mr. Henry objected to hiring her tho ne'xt year, stating his objections in writing, the principal one being that she lied. Tho objections were read to the two trustees, but they hired MissMobcrly and she sued for damages, recovering a judgment of $2,250. The appellate court holds the communication was privileged, no malice was shown and tho school teacher was uninjured as she was hired by the two men to whom the protest was read.

William 11. Gardiner, republican candidate for congress in district 2, defeated by R. W . Miers, has filed a protest with the secretary of State against the governor certifying the elecUoE of Miers to the house of representatives at Washington. Gardiner intends to content M lei's' seat. It is alleged in the protest that, iu Daviess county, a part of district 2, the name of Miers appeared under a device made up of a plow, hammer, rooster and silvor dollar, with 10 to 1 written across its face. The ticket was called "Union silver ticket." Gardiner's position is that Miers' vote under such a device in Daviess county should not be counted with his vote in other counties of the district where he rajiitttjbrDeniocratic ticket under the rooster. The question raised will probttblv test the force of the amendments to the election law passed by tho last legislature to prevent the name of a candidate from appearing under two different devices. Tho point raised will also affect Eph Inman, elected joint senator of Daviess and Dubois, and D. C. Heffron and James B. Marshall, elected judge and prosecutor, respectively, of the forty-ninth judicial district.
