GREETING, family home from attachment and sale for any debt except that secured by a mortgage on the property itself has been decided by Judge M. C. George, of Port land, in a case tried before him in the circuit court for Multnomah county not to apply to mechanic's liens and that the property can be sold under execution for debts incurred for material and labor in placing improvements uj»on the land. Alter reviewing numerous decisions of courts in other states on this point Judge George said: “The theory of the me chanic’s lien law is that, if an owner allows a contractor to build or repair a house on the owner’s ground, to be and become a part of the realty, the owner cannot hold the material thereof or labor thereon for the owner's benefit to the realty, unless the material man or laborer is |Mid for the benefit rendered. This is equity; ami the homestead law ought not to be permitted, in equity, to over turn this principal, and thus |>ermit the homestead land to be benefitted, some thing for nothing, unless the homestead law clearly means it.’’ With thia issue the Sentinel lx*gin» biiainc»« in Jackaonville under a new management^ Mr Ch.tries Mescrve.who for the past year anti a half has been the editor of the |nt{>er ha« wvererl hi« con nection with it «nil i« leaving Jackson ville permanently.
