highest point it had risen to in eleven years on
last Thursday, and was within three feet of be
ing as high as was the great 1ood of 1917 The
river bottoms We're all inundated bridges were
carried off and destroyed. The canal bank is
broken in several places in this vicinity where
the water broke over the tow path from the
river, and it is supposed to have suffered great
damage below. The greatest injury done in this
neighborhood has been to the corn and wheat
crops
Eel river was very high and for awhile the
Plank road bridge was in great danger, II was
damaged conside, ably by the water washing out
the earth under the abutment and settling the
right at one end.
The Wabash Valley Road has sustained heavy
damages. 1t is Scstimated a; one bundled thou

tions OF the Constitution in some instances
The act taking out of the Governors hands the
appointment of officers for the Ptnitcntiary and

tutonal by the Supreme Court. The following
are the points decided by tho Court, as reported
in the State Journal;
/. That an employment by public authority
in public trust, not merely occasional or tran
sient, is u public officer, though no fees be an.
nexed to the cmpoymcnt
2. That the employment ofWilii1m Krnnon
aud his associates Is such an cmploymcnL aud
must be regarded MS n public olicc.
3, That the designation of the persons alluded
80, as the holder OF that Office is the exercise by
the General Assembly, OF an appointing power
not prescribed in the Constitution,
i. That the General Assembly may conStiu.
tionalIy exercise the appointing power only in
the cases prescribed in the Constitution,
.. That appointments Io Office, as distinguish
