Lawsuit m Old Room Carried am SCO Year* A generally little-known region, quite close to Rome, is called the Pon tine Marshes. A large qoandrangle formed by the foothills of the Al ban volcanoes, the Lepias Mountains, by the wooded sand dnaes of the roast, and by Mount Circeo, msaiui - ing some 160,000 acres of extraor dinarily fertile land, is known to his tory as the Pontine Marshes. The water, hemmed in on all sides, can not flow oat. In olden times the whole land was densely populated and highly produc tive. Twenty-three towns arr sup posed to have existed where now one sees not a trace of a single building. The Romans with great daring and with an enormous expenditure of la bor. dug right through the dunes at sea level and this gigantic cut, with the sides river a hundred feet high, appears today. The condition of the Pontine land became worse and worse. The water could not find suffi cient outlet and during the rainy season inundated large tracts of land. Each group of inhabitants, there fore, strove principally to divert the waters from their own properties to those of their neighbors. Lawsuits were instituted and wars broke out Incessantly in every direction. The longest lawsuit ever recorded. It is said, resulted. For about MO years it was carried on, and only ended about 1790. When the decis ions of the courts did not suit the people they resorted to arms .and many bloody battles were fought. —Exchange. Ob* Law Leu, Anyway.

Al so, incidentally, it will afford the present-day motorist to breathe a lit tle more freely aver the increaaing curbs that are being placed on his individual rights. Oat in Denison, Iowa, they hare repealed one of the earliest automo bile laws passed anywhere in the country and one which for SO years has held an undisputed place for qal Thls municipal regulator. provided that, "the traveling motorist is or dered to telephone ahead to the next town notify them of his intended arri val, of his probable route thresh town, and of the length of his intend ed eta jr." It is explained In news dispetehee that owners of nervous horses were thus warned In advance of the neces sity of being on the lookout for the coming "gas-eragon," then consider ed In that part of the world aa a nuis Oh, hum. anyway, H means one law leas, and shows that "the world ds move." foro would bo forced to an offort to obatVKt Ml hmwt Mid OfM COMid _,.Hnn -»■»■■■ taanlwil M k« > vriuon w himmi ■ hitoivwi, ne Mi forth, tddiiiff thai tho democratic par ty rocord can bo hotter proooatod to tho people whon tho speaker Hi "left and trivial subjects."
