The Fees of Federal Court Gffi CT rs

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-First Con-
troller Lawrence has given deci-
sion, in which be maintsins that the
act of February %, 1875, as to the
fees of marshals and clerks, does not
change the rate or mode of comput>
ing on mileage of writs served by
L marshals, and that it prohibits con
structive mileage on writs transmit
ted to and served by deputies, and
mileage for travel not necessarily
performed. The opinion further
maintains that, ''by the force of sec~
ton S75, revised statutes, subpenas
for witnesses who are required to
attend any term of circuit or district
court, or on the part of the United
STATES, should require them to attend
to testify generally on behalf of
the United States, and under
such subpoena they are required to
testify before the grand jury, petit
jury and court (as the case may be).
Clerks of course are required by law
to insert in one writ the names of all
such witnesses who, at the time of
issuing the warrant, are to be sub
psnaed, and who reside in one To-
cality OF in the same direction from
the place where the writ is returna-
BILE. Marshals are entitled to one
mileage for summoning witnesses,
the subp@nas for which have been
issued for witnesses, whose names
should all be inserted in one writ"
The decision authorizes the proper
accounting officers of the Treasury
Department to revise the accounts OF
marshals and clerks OF courts of the
United States, Notwithstanding their
approval by the proper court. The
statute authorizing such revision
Judge Lawrence holds, is consttu-
tional.

Cooperation in production is Republi>
canism or Democracy applied to industry.
1t is question which some will answer
one way and some another, whether q
Democratic republic is good organiza-
tion for indus ry or not. Experience, I'D
to this time, bears with heavy prepon-
derance IN favor of the negative The
economic elements of gain in cooperative
workshops have never been defined by
any body, and are not apparent. There are
even gfeat difficulties in the definition, SO
soon rs anything more is intended than
capital is largely held by the workmen
employed by it If one hundred men want
to start a workshop, there is some suitable
amount of capital, say $4,000, which one
hundred men at that business need to keep
them employed. Taese one hundred men
can, only in the single and most ezeep~
| tlonal case, have just that amount. 1t they
have more, they must hire some men, who
| may not be co>operatoTs, to work up that
| capital. If they have less than That amount
| of capital. they must sell shares to some
| who are not workmen. Therefore, in all
but the NEST exceptional cases, the estsbl
| lIshment is simply like one of our Eastern
cotton mills, in which the ellie of the works
| people are often stock holders-i. e., simply
| join stock company. The constant q Itii-
| Guilty of cooperative production arises, of
Y
| concord and accord among large mum Der
of p rsons, and t. at is the hardest thing on
earth to bring about
We must give paragraph also to q
warning against the duusions of co>opera-
tive insurance. This has become We y
popular in this country, and exists far
more widely than any other application of
CO. operation. Some of the States have
recently been legislating about it. Why is
it believed that the great insurance
companies keep large reserves? Why is it
supposed that stringent laws have been
passed and close inspection has been
established for those companies Obvious
! ly it is because life Insurance is not true or
sound except under strict conditions which
a-e capable of mathematical com putatlon.
! The cooperative insurance societies are
| cheaper because they are outside Of legal
restraint and are violating all the necessary
| limitations and burdens of sound business
There is heavy loss and bitter disappoint>
ment in store for many people who are
putting their savings and their faith into
these schemes.-From Scnbner for July.

A GIRL WHO REFUSED A PRINCE,
A Daughter of DR.. j. c. Aver Jilts Cousin
of Don Carlos.
From the San Francisco Bulletin.

"A daughter OF DIR. d. G. Aver Jilts Cousin
of Don Carlos.
a> From the San Francisco Bulletin.
PARIS, June 10.-About a year ago it was
announced that Miss Aver only daughter
and heiress to half of the many millions &C
cumulated by DR.. J. c. Aver, of Lowell.
Mass, was soon to marry one of the Bour-
bons, cousin of Don Carlos, of Spain.
This particular Prince was one of the many
impecunious Princes out of situations who
roam about Europe in the search of rich
American ladies, whose fortunes may be
utilized in paying the played out nobleman's
gambling debts. This noble Bourbon was
passionately in love with the aforesaid lady's
fortune, and did his utmost to capture it,
He used to call every day regularly at the
Continental Hotel, where she and her
mother resided and, after being refused,
would not take ''No" for an answer, but
still continued to plead for share in the
profits accruing and accrued from Cherry
Pectoral."
On one occasion, when this deputy come
to ask the hand of Miss Aver in marriage,
or rather to inform that young lady that his
Highness the Prince A de Bourbon pro-
| posed to confer upon her the honor of his
name and high sounding title, Miss Aver
peremptorily refused. Whereupon the
chamberlain exclaimed: "Do not say you
refuse him. His Highness the Prince il
not parsonage who can be refused! Oh,
no. IT'S impossible. Put it in some Other
FORM / beg of you. Say you are unable tc
accept of the honor offered you. Anything
but a. refusal. The Prince is not an ordina
ry man to be rejected in this manner!
Notwithstanding the fervid eloquence of thu
chamberlain, Miss Aver did refuse hi
master squarely, peremptorily, and on NOR
than dozen occasions. And L say hurr
for the Yankee girl who had independence
enough and sufficient good common sens
to refuse to be made the unworthy instru
ment of paying the vulgar debts of Bour
bon Prince.
