Delegate Corcoran, Of this county, is
entirely right when he tells the LeRisia-
tive Committee that nins.tenths Of the
people Of this city earnestly desire the
passage Of the pending bill giving
Wheeling the right to supply her citi-
Gems with electric light. Asa matter Of
fact, no person here outside Of the Elec.
trio Company has any other feeling than
that Of an unqualified desire to see the
city in full possession Of this most i'm
portant privilege.
RThe regret is practically universal that
there is any hesitation whatever on the
part Of single member of the Legisla-
ture in regard to granting this commu.
nifty the same right in the matter Of cleo
tricity that it enjoys, and has 90 long and
SO beneAcially enjoyed, in the matter Of
gas. People here are simply amazed at
the attitude assumed by the Electrical
Company in opposition to the city's in.
terests. 1t is a revelation indeed to
them 10 be told that the permission
given by the city to introduce electric
light and power here carried with it a
ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of the city for all fu.
turs time in the all important matter Of
light. There Is not a word in the permit
to the Electrical Company that will bear
such a construction. Nothing was fur.
Their from the city's mind at that time
or at any time since, than the surrender
or foregoing to the slightest extent Of
her privilege to manufacture and supply
electric light whenever it should seem to
her good to do SO.
In all the discussions Of this question
years $50 it was never publicly assumed
by the Electrical Company, or by any
one on its behalf, that the city had evel
surrendered or abated aught Of its pre-
rogatives in this matter. Itis an entire
ly new position to plead that there Il
any loss of legal or moral right on the
part Of the city to supply the people with
whatever kind Of light is needed. The
city got no consideration whatever from
the Electrical Company and never asked
any, and for the very plain reason
that she intended, whenever the time
came, to go into the business her
self. And when the Electrical
Company went into business and con
tinued in it, it was fully aware all the
time Of this fact. The papers have al
ways discussed the position Of the Elec
trical Company from this standpoint,
viz: that 1t IVES simply competing with
the city in the matter of light, and that
whenever the time came for the city to
establish an electric plant Of her own
she would have the undoubted right to
do SO.
We trust that no member Of the Leg
islature will be misled by the specious
and wholly interested representations Of
tho ELECTRIC Light people. The public
here are a unit for the bill. 1t is vital
to this city's interests.

than all other diseases combined.
"Catarrh may end in deafness, blind
ness, loss Of smell, loss Of taste, or the
entire loss OF voice. Diphtheria, bron'
chitis, pneumonia, consumption and
pleurisy begin almost always as the re.
suit OF catarrhal attack. The worst
form Of dyspepsia and Brights disease
OF the kidneys are also the direct coDse-

catarrh escapes all Of the aboye.men-

catarrh. 1t is beyond the descriptive
powers OF lasguage to portray the pecnt-
lar misery Of a subject Of chronic

the WATCH CLUB CASE,
Interesting Opinion Delivered by
Judge Bonney.

James NJ Martin, who was arrested under
the lottery law at the instigatlon of the jew
elers' Association of this city. the twenty
eighth day of last March for being concerned
In watch club, and who was bound over in
the Municipal Court, to the May term of the
Superior Court, came before the court yes
terday forenoon. 1t will be remembered
that an extensive account of the methods of
this club was printed In the daily papers OF
that date. Martin, yesterday forenoon, in
court, pleaded nolo contendere, and Col. Nc
Quillan. his counsel, said in asking the Glenn
ency of the court:
The respondent in this case is indicted un.
der Sec. 10, Chap. 1913 of the Revised Stat
utes, relating to lotteries Under the pro-
visions OF this section, every lottery, scheme

OF churches. benevolent objects, or other

them would be subject to indictment. This
prohibition. and If strictly enforced would
almost deprive every Yankee in the state of
his natural privilege of guessing But In
the matter OF some portion of this section,
the law is certainly more honored in the
breach than In the observance" and public
opinion does not seem to be very much
shocked In this treatment of it. The state
authorities evidently do not think 1t of suffi-
cient importance to have it stictly enforced,
for II 1t should be there is no doubt but
what considerable number of the managers

formed to dispose OF number of watches
by some device of chance, and that the re-
spondent was concerned in selling certificates
or some interest in the same. Now in so far
as known no member of this club has made
any complaint. Complaint is made, and
perhaps rightfully. by those engaged In the
selling OF watches; for the methods prac-
trade from its natural channel, and every one
engaged in a legitimate trade in the selling
of these articles of merchandise is injured
by them. The respondent intends to be a
law apidlng citizen, and heretofore has sus-
tanned good reputation, and when he knew
that anyone had any complaint to make or
was injured In business in any way in the
matter of this watch club, he Immediately
gave 1t up and has not since been concerned
in 1t or anything of kindred nature.
Judge Bonney, on the recommendation of
County Attorney Robinson, and at the re-
quest of the executive committee of the
Jewellers Association ordered the case placed
upon the special docket of the court, to be
called up only in case the respondent shall
be found hereafter violating any of the pro-
visions of the Revised Statutes relating to
lotteries
