THERE ii goes againl Oncs more the
President has been imposed upon, and
the wicked man this time is George
Hoally, Governor Of Ohio. It was Hoadly
who suggested Ex-Governor Noyes as q
suitable person for Government Director
Of the Union Pacific Railroad. The Presi.
dent Secretary Lamar and Governor
HoadIy were in consultation at the time.
The President took the bait and Noyes
disappointed without his solicitation.
Itappears that the administration felt
iseli embarrassed by the appointment
aud was much relieved when the declina'
ton came. The embarrassment must have
been on the strength Of aiter-discovered
testimony, for the New York Sun remarks
"The President doubtless knew nothing
Of NoyeS' political antecedents, but how
Hoadly and Lamar could have forgotten
them is ineomprehensible." This is toe
bad, and it shows that the President has
no. been reader Of Democratic news.
papers, any one OF which would have told
him every day since 1876 tha. Noyes stole
the Presidency for that other bad Ohio
man, Hayes.
The President isn't up at all on the
literature of his party. He must have
confined his reading to prints which
stadiOusly and maliciously ignored the

There were three cases decided by the
Supreme Court OF Appeals yesterday that
are deserving OF more than a passing
notice. .s.sri
In the case Of the'state vs. Oliver, from
Kanawha county, the defendant was in
dicted forselltng liquor without license.
The proof showed that his offense con-
sisted in bis selling crab cider. He was
notltried by Jury and the court fined
him SO and costs. The Supreme Court
reversed this judgment and rendered
judgment for the defendant. Judge Snyder
dissented. This court held that crab cider
was not o spirituous or intoxicating
beverage. The lower court held that
when drank In large quantities crab cider
was such. z ati
Another liquor case was that OF the
State vs.. Cooper, from Mercer. Cooper
had been to Tazewell, Va, and was on his
way nome. he met three or four friends,
who learning where he had been ex-
pressed awish that they had known he
was going so that they could have had
him'gst them some whisky. He said that
he had some whisky with him and pulled
out three pint bottles from his saddlebags.
His friends wanted to buy, but he said he
had none TO sell but had some to give his
friends, and they all took another drink.
The friends finally asked how much the
whisky cost and he told them sixty cents
a pint. The friends testified that they
threw about 81 20 in Cooper's carriage,
but whether he got It or even saw It they
did mot know. He was indicted and .
verdict Of not guilty returned. The Prose
cutting Attorney not satisfied, pushedthe
case 70 the Supreme Court. IL rendered
q decision for the defendant.
In the four cases of Chapman vs.. the
railroad company, from Brooke county,
the decrees Of the Circuit Court were
affirmed. These cases involve about $780,
600.

suing this course they expect to make
