Minister l'endlctOn,

The appointment Of Senator Pen
d'eton as Minister to Germany, is a
deserved recognition of ohio dis
tinguished son, and compliment
his mhny friends will highly appre
ciate.
Senator Pcndleton differs with
many leading Democrats upon the
question of Civil Service and this
difference might have embarrassed
the harmony of the Administration
had he been appointed to a cabinet
position. All possible disagree
ments are obviated by his appoint
ment to Minister to Germany, and
his commanding ability and his
high personal character are acknowl-
edged and properly rewarded.

the Order was a forgery absolute.
and this plaintiff brought suit to
recover the money paid 10 the
Bank upon the order, upon the
ground that money paid without
consideration is recoverable. TO
this petition the defendant de-
INJURED end the Court held in
sustaining such demurrer, that,
although as general rule mon
ey paid without consideration or
un Ter a mist AXE of facts is recov-
erable; yet there is an exception
in eases of this kind where both
parties have acted in good faith,
tho negligently, in such cases
the law usually leaves the par
ties where it finds them. There
is also another exception this
general rule which occurs in
cases where the drawer of a note
has paid a bona fide holder for
value, and a recovery would pre-
JUDGE such holder. This rule
proceeds on the ground that the
d awee is presumed to know the
signature of his correspondent,
and that this rule extends to pub
lie officers as we'll as private per-
sons, and further that the fact, as
in this case, that the Clerk who
purpoited signed the order in
question was not the Clerk in
Office during Mr.. Lehman's term,
does not change the rule
Counsel for plaintiff excepted
to this decision, and the case will
be for hearing by the Circuit
Court.

don't altogether like the appoint
ment of Larmar and Garland as
cabinet officers. The Advocate
forgets that President Hayes made
Key, a rebel brigadier, his Post
master General, and that the hasest
element of the rebellion was favored
by his administration and given
important offices. And the Advo
cate had no complaint TO make of a
Rebels appointment when that reb
el voted and acted with the Repub
lican party.
The patriotism of some good re-
ligious people is only skin deep
and ticket thin.

of money and the incapacity to
count it. If a person has been
for a number of years so situated
as to be handling money or see
ing it handled. counted and de
fined. so that he or she has had
full opportunity to have become
familiar with it, and would re-
main wholly ignorant concerning
such matters, it would be a strong
circumstance tending to show de-
fective capacity as a reason for
such want of knowledge.
On the other hand, if the per-
son has had no occasion to have
had anything to do with money,
to observe the handling or count
ing of it, then the circumstance
is not so strong or important in
that respect.
The law authorizing the ap-
pointment of a Guardian for an
imbecile is not intended for the
protection of the ignorant, il,it-
crate or even persons of inferior
intelligence, or of inexperience
in business affairs.
Those that are inexperienced
must acquire experience, and
those that are ignorant or litter.
ate may acquire knowledge. nor
does the law undertake TO DIS
tinguish between the different
degrees of shrewdness and ca
pacity between persons who are
of sound mind.
The statute only intends to
protect those whose mind have
become unbalanced and their
reason OverlhrOwn by lunacy, or
who have been deficient of mind
or idiotic from their birth, or
who, because of disease or of the
coming on of age, or other cause,
have lost the power OF reason or
judgment, or the exercise of ra-
tional discretion in the affairs Of
life.
To aid you in this investigation
yon have had the advantage of
the opinion of physicians and Of
neighbors who have known the |
defendant for the past years.
Tne above is all Of the charge
to the question of i'm
becility.

Dan McCOnnYille.

1t affords us much pleasure tt
learn of the appointment by the
President of Dan McConnville
as Sixth Auditor in the Treasury
Department at Washington.
McConnville is one of the new
men, comparatively speaking, in
Ohio politics. He first obtained
recognition as a Member of the
Boald of Penitentiary Trustees
under GovernorBishop, defeating
Jack Johnston, of Perry, in the
contest.
In this, his first public service.
he distinguished himself not only
as a courteous gentleman, but as
a prudent, practical man in pub
lie affairs, and won such distinc-
ton that he at once became
a prominent factor among the
young Democracy in the politics
of our State.
He has recently been in State
political service. and we can bear
testimony Of his effective work
for the party in the last cam
paign.
As Private Secretary of Gov.
Hoadly, he has always shown
hmself the courteous gentleman
and the prudent public man.
His appointment as Auditor in
the Treasury Department, will
meet the hearty approval of the
Democrats of Ohio and of the
Hockiug Valley especially.
We don't know and don't want
to know whether or not McConn-
Vile is a "Kid' or 4 "Mossback."
We know he is a Democrat, a
nice gentleman, an officer fit for
his place, and We congratulate
him on the compliment of his
appointment and the public up
on the fact of having a man in
position whose work viii be in
the interest of the public service.

General-not that they want all

change of postmasters which is
soon 10 take pla e, will give
them and their newspaper a fair
show, which has not been the
case for years in thousands of
the smaller, but still important
Offices of the country.
| know Mr.. Hay Intimately.
and have known him for many
years, and while he is not a
newspaper man himself, there is
not a man in the country who
has higher appreciation of the
just sphere and the proper ini1u
ence Of the weekly press than he.
The newspaper fraternity is to
be congratulated upon the excel
lence of his selection, since he
has the appointment of $4,000
office holders who have charge
of the circulation among the
people of the newspaper mail of
the country.
For years the most powerful
enemies of the Democratic press
have been the Post Masters of
the smaller Offices in the country,
and you have no doubt felt their
power in diminished subscription
lists. and the falling off Of sub
scribers when you fell that you
were entitled to an increase.
These post masters. TO begin
with, have been the regular
agents o: your political rival, re-
ceiving a commission from the
publisher for all subscriptions
sent in, and in many cases re-
celvlng a bonus from the Repub-
lican county committees for every
Democrat they induced to quit
their party paper and receive
Republican paper inst ead-these
papers often being paid for by
Republican committees. In this
way the small post-masters num-
bered by the thousand, become
the great Republican Propagan-
da of the country, and if each of
them in Ohio could induce two
Democrats to desert their party.
or stay away from the polls. the
result of an election would be
changed.
have some knowledge of the
way The post Offices Of Ohio have
been worked for the past ten or
fifteen years, and | am prepared
to say that they have been more
largely instrumental than any
thing else in carrying the State
against the Democratic party
Each post master WAS an active
agent Of the Republican State
Executive Committee, and
helped 10 put the campaign
funds where they would do the
most good.
For years when Democrats.
pending hot campaign, would
yet their home or Il foreign
weekly paper out of the office
and take it home, they would
find neatly folded inside of it
political document, containing
some atrocious party heresy,pur
porting to be Democratic litera-
ture forwarded by The editor for
subscribers instruction. So rank
and dangerous to the public in
terests would be the doctrines
advanced, that the reader would
repudiate them, probably vote
against his party or refuse to go
to The polls at all, and stop his
paper at the first opportunity.
