Martins Ferry Feb. Z,
BRIDGEPORT.

Hon. Samuel Hills, Belmont county's
representative in the Legislature, has intro
duced q bill which will likely become q Law,
relating to the liability OF stockholders in
incorporated companies. Under the Con-
s~titution and laws Of Ohio, every stock
holder is held in an amount equal to his
stock. The courts Of Ohio have so extend
ed this so by decision as 10 make solvent
for the liability of insolvent stock. This
would seem to make such a corporation o
partnership. The Supreme Court Of the
United States in a National Bank case be,
ing a sure law to pay the liabilitie
of the bank made an assessment
on the stockholders pro rata sufficient to
pay the debt, providing all the stockholders
are solvent, This is as it should be. Mr..
Hills object is to compel the Ohio courts,
by law, to observe the federal decision as
his amendment proves, as the charge pro.
posed by him provides that no stakeholder
shall be deemed or held liable to pay any
portion of any other stock liability" This
is certainly q wise law and should pass.
