ton for defendant Mcssrs. Bradley and Gillet
We add to the foregoing brief statement the prin,
cipal points ruled by the court:
l. That the 29th, 3Oth 3lst, and 32d sections Of
the act of 1877, which forbids the making and ssu.
ing of bills by unchartered partnerships and assoca
tons in this District, and declaring that contracts
founded thereon. or securities taken therefor were
void, wero repealed by the act Of 1921, extending
the charters Of sundry banks, and that said sections
are not now in force.
2. That under the restraining law of July Z, 1898
it is unlawful to issue pass, offer to pass in
this District, by any individual, "any note, check
draft bank-bill or any other paper currency, Of a
less denomination than FIVE dollars
3. That contract made in this District where
such paper formed the whole or any portion of the
consideration was void, and no recovery could be
had upon it,
A. That where contract was made in, or maAs

money, whether Of largo or small denominations, il,
sued by unchartered association, partnership, or
company, without being specially authorized by law
such contract is prohibited by the statutes Of that
State, and no recovery could be had thereon
5. That whore an agent was employed to circulate
bills for percentage if he conducted the business
as prudent man would conduct the like business
for himself and loss ensues by the nonpayment Of
notes which no might take in the course of such
business, the principal and not the agent must
tain such loss.
G. That if the jnry should find the whole evidence
presented in the cause to be true, lit being all in
writing except the proof of signatures which were
not the subject Of controversy it did not present
case emitting the plaintiffs to recover.
We believe that some other points were decided
but it is believed, Of no general interest to the pro

The Inconsistencies, and 'discrepancies'' in the
Unon's paragraph of the 3lst ultimo announcing the
arrival of the messenger from Kansas with the State
constitution exist not in the facts but in the COM
prehcnsion-of them by respected contemporary of
the Intcliigeneer. The vote at Delaware Crossing
was received and counted because there linn
itation as to time within which the returns of the
election for State officers might be made. The re-
turns addressed to Acting Governor Denver were tho
votes received by the territorial officers appointed
to take the vote upon the constitution; they had no
authority to receive votes for State officers, make
any return thereof and consequently these votes
clearly irregular, and should not be counted. The
returns not !" alike irregulary made,' as repre-
sented by the Inteli'gmcer and the counting of the
one and rejection Of the other to be sustained
by every consideration Of legal regularity.

The notes Of this Bank, as we learn, have
been refused by the State Treasurer, and no
provision is now made for their payment
Large amounts appear to he in circulation,
and the loss and sacrifice must fall chiefly
on those who are least able TO bear it.
Tho notes Of the Canal Bank arc worth
less, the Agents Of the State having de-
fraudcd tho honest bill holder who has look
cd to the securities pledged with its officers
for payment.
Cannot our Legislature at once make
provision for paying the reissues of Bank
notes thus secured and purporting to have
been burned by the State officers. That
the State is clearly liable there can be no
doubt. Should an individual or corporation
thus be guilty Of fraud through its agents,
they would be held responsible. As mat
ter of equity and justice, the State should
come promptly forward and assume the pay
mcnt of these notes. Unless some law car
be devised to insure the actual burning o
notes thus returned to the Treasury, and fol
the safe keeping of State Stock pledged
for their redemption, confidence in thit
class of circulating notes must be greatly
shaken.
No ono doubts the high integrity of OH
present State officers, but learning wisdom
from the past we ought certainly to make
such provision for the future as shall rcndc
such issues entirely safe and free from sus
piciou.- Clevc1and Herald.
