The lawsuit recently brought by Herman Messman, of Rensselaer, against Warren T. M'cCray, of Kentland, alleging fraud in a land deal, has been pretty well timed so far as its .political effect might have been contemplated, but it will take more than one lawsuit to convince those who know Warren T. McCray that there is any fraud In his make-up. Evidently the editor of the Kentland Democrat, democratic as its name indicates, sees the little hunch back of things, and he does not hesitate to comment on it. The Democrat, says: “The Democrat is in no position (nor so inclined) to give support to Mr. McCray’s possible gubernatorial aspirations, but with respect to his citizenship of Kentland and Newtqn county; his never failing support of all movements for good of the community, we feel that the public should not be too hasty to judge him harshly—-based on lhe allegations of the complaint alone i bu+ that they lay unwarranted gossip and leave it to the court to adjudicate’’'the matter.”—Benton County I Tribune. \
