his findings of law and fact at the
next term of the court.
The case is one of great impor.
tance and involves the eXamina-
ton of mass of testimony as well
as great number Of complicated
questions of law.
The plaintiff is represented by
McClintoCk and Strong, Mr.. Strong
who resides in Cincinnati having

The Tln.Plnte Ipiqnity.

The Baltimore Sun has published
interviews with business men in
the timing industry showing the
injurious effect which the proposed
increas of duty on tin plate would
have upon the trade. Not lsss than
10000 workingmen in Maryland
alone are estimated tn b.. more OF
less dependent upon the canning ol
oysters, meats fruits and vegetables
This leaves out of accounts the
farmers who can fruits and vege
tables for their own use, the cost ol
whose tin plate would be increased
more than 10O9S by the Senate Tar
iff Bill.
1t is proposed that the duty on
plate shall not go into effect until
January 1890. BY that time, it is
believed the Pittsburg firm that
has been engineering the job would
he able to begin operations. Then
the annual revenue from tin plate
would go from the Treasury
to the pockets of Il few private In
dividual as a reward for their lib
eral campaign contributions. Dur
ing the last fiscal year the reven-
ue from the import amounted to
$6,349, ,448, and the addition of 81,
100000 by the Senate bill would
make the total upward of $l3,650,
600 year. This is what the con-
sumers of the country would have
to pay on this article, whether the
revenue should continue to flow in
to the Treasury or whether the in
creased rate of duty should totally
prohibit it's importation. Under
the present duty amounting to 3396
ad valorum, not pound of tin
plate is produced in this country.
Should this bill pass it would still
be necessary to import the tin for
covering the plate, and, no doubt,
the skilled labor to do the work.
The duty is then to lie raised up
ward of 1908 to enable few indi-
viduals to perform an experiment
tup in corpore viii on the body of
the American people. Millions are
to be taxed and few thousand
workingmen diverted to confess
edly Improbable pursuit in order
that a half dozen persons may be-
come enriched at the public ex-
pense. Could the trainers of the
ever have imagined
that the taxing power of Congress
would be so shamefully abused for
the promotion of an iniquitOus
scheme of spoilation and monopo-
|y? In no legislative body, except |
the Senate of the United States as
at present constituted, could this
of a prohibitory duty
lpon a common article of use and
necessity among the people be SER
ously entertained much less re-
'eive the support of majority

A Mansion for the Governor.

The Governor has asked the
Legislature to appropriate money
for the purchase of a furnished
house to be used free of rent by
lhe Governors of the State, and a
bill is now pending appropriating
$4,000 for that purpose. Ofcourse,
the cost of this house, its furnish
ing and maintenance is to be paid
out of the proceeds of the pFotec-
tive industry of the State. There
is no other source from which to
get the money. The men Of Ohio
who are engaged in these Industries
now receive, on an average, less
than nine dollars a week as their
share of the proceeds of their la
bor. They IRE paid only for the
time they are at work. A half
days time, means the loss of
half a days wages. No one pays
their rent and n" one pays for the
furnishing of their houses.
The Governor of the State of
Ohio receives one hundred and
sixty dollars a week, sure pay.
He can 60 about his private busi-
ness, and does, for days ut time
without loss of pay. So it is at
once seen that the proposition is
simply to rob the men who work,
and receive but nine dollars week
of r part of their pay, and use the
money secured in this wayin build
Ing a mansion and gorgeously
furnishing IL, to be given free of
rent to man who has but little to
do and who receives, sick or well,
at work or play, one hundred and
sixty dollars a week. The maudlin

procedure as this should find no
favor where men are free BORN

The Election Ripper.

We have received from Senator
v. a. Taylor, of Cuyahoga Co., II
copy of his Senate bill entitled
"a Bill to secure more fully the
independence of electors at pubic
elections, to enforce the secrecy OF
the ballot, to provide for printing
and distributing ballots at the
public expense, and to regulate
voting at State and city election"
The bill is ripper from base,
and should it become law would
revolutionize the mode of holding
state and city elections, the only
class of elections to which the bill
applies. But why Townships
sho uld be excluded is not quite
clear to the ordinary mind. There
/ s much in the bill which would
improve our elective system. In
fact we believe it woul / be utterly
impossible to frame law that
would not better the system in
some way.
The bill before us is, however,
too complicated and might be much
simplified, especially in the matter
of nominations. The provisions Of
the Taylor bill in respect to the
manner of conducting elections
would be a great and much need
ed Improvement.
Our space prevents our giving
the full text of the proposed meas
ure.

Mortagage was not to be recorded
unless 1t became necessary. That
for more than ten years E. l.. II.
and Company had been making
advances of money to the Furnace
Co. so that at the time of the fail
ure the Furnace Co. owed them
about 100000. That the Furnace
Co. had agreed that so long as any
of the said advances remained un-
paid it would execute no Judge
ment notes or put any lein on the
property without the consent of
E. l.. III. & Co. e. L. Harper &
Co. made an assignment for the
benefit of creditors on June 2lst.
1887.
The Furnace Co. was at that
time indebted to John G. Hamil-
ton it's acting President in about
$4,000; to David Hamilton of
Scotland and the father of John c.,
in about the sum of 100000, to
the Firat National Bank of New
ark on drafts of the Licking Iron
Company on E. l.. Harper & Co.,
and which had been cashed by the
Bank in about the sum of 100000.
AS soon as the news of the cal
laps of E. L. Harper & Co. reoched
Shawnee, John G. Hamilton as
President proceeded to issue
Judgement notes of the Licking
Iron Co. to the several creditors
above named for the amounts
due them, including himself
Judgements were at once taken
on these notes in Knox County
and executions issued to the Sher-
ifs of Perry and Hamilton County
under which levies were made
on the personal and real property
of the Licking Iron Co. and the
Sheriffs proceeded to sell the per-
sonal property and turned over the
money to the Judgment creditors.
The plaintiff claims that these
Judgments Executions and sales
are in fraud of his rights and asks
that they be set aside. About the
time these levies were made (the
priority being in dispute) the mort
age above mentioned as being
made by the Licking Iron Co. to
e. l.. Harper & Co., was filed in
Perry County both as real estate |
and chattel mOrtage. Robson &
Orr obtained Judgement lein
subsequent to the above proceed
ngs.
The defendants having Judg-
nents, claim they have valid
prior leins and that the claims of
E. l.. Harper are fraudulent and
argely without consideration.
It being required of the commits
;ioner to report to the next term of
he court, and as the argument has
ust been finished, his decision is
lot yet ready, and if it were we
'ould not presume to publish it in
advance of the sitting of the court
,ut so soon as it is made we will
axe great pleasure in laying it be-
ore our readers.
