JUDGE COOLEY, the veteran jurist
and expounder of constitutional law,
in q recent lecture before the senior
law class of the University of Mich
igan, alluded to the Coxey movement
and defined clearly the unconstitu-
tionality of the petition with boots
on" He explained that citizens may
petition for legislation; but they can
not command it, even if they should
visit the Federal capital by hundreds
of thousands, and, assuming to speak
for the people, demanding an enact
ment of specific measures. In gov
ernment like ours the legislative
power is delegated to representatives.
No one except these elected delegates
has the right to assume or to pretend
to represent the popular will. To
permit of the intimidation of legisla-
tive bodies by tumultuous assemblies
would mean the substitution of mob
rule for representative government.

CANDIDATES GALORE
For the Democratic Nomination for
Congress.
A DOZEN ABLE MEN WOULD LIK Il
TO SUCCEED DO .OVAN,
A Lively Tim e Expected.

A special dispatch from Columbus to the
Enquirer says things are beginning to warm
up in the Democratic Fifth district, compos
ed of the counties of Williams. Defiance
Henry, Paulding, Putnam and Van Vert,
which takes in the whole of the northwest
corner of the state. Hon. d. D. Donovan,
the present member, was chosen in 1892 over
George L. Griffeth by plurality of 1894.
In the landslide of last fall the Democratic
plurality in the district was cut to 1888.
This fact, with the existing condition of af-,
fairs, possibly makes the district debatable
ground to some extent.
Mr.. Griffith, at all events, IS anxious to
try it over, and will probably receive the
Republican nomination, unless some of the
other Republican statesmen become seized
of the idea that it will only be picnic to
carry the district and 60 in and cut him out
of the somewhat empty honnr of the nomi-
nation.
There will be no lack of Democratic aspir-
ants for the nomination. Every county will
present one, and some of them will possibly
present two. Mr.. Donovan will be candi-
date for denomination, and, as matter of
course, will start in with his own county of
Henry solid in his support.
Putnam county will have candidate in
the person of Judge John j. Moore, of the
Circuit court.
Williams will claim recognition with 9. E.
Scott, of Bryan, as favorite son.
Van Vert will ask that the nomination be
given to Judge B. j. Brotherton, formerly
Judge Of the Probate court.
The brilliant orator, John H. Shook, of
Paulding, will be presented by that county.
Either John W. Winn or William H. Hub
bard will be presented from Defiance, which
stands second in Democratic strength.
There isno rivalry between the two gentle
men, and they will doubtless determine be-
tween themselves, without difficulty, which
shall 20 into the convention with the solid
backing of Defiance.
Of course the contest when it comes to the
convention will be spirited on withe such
long list of popular entries, and more than
likely it will be contest of endurance. The
date of the convention has not yet been fixed
nor has the matter been seriously discussed
by the congressional committee.

He may be scholar familiar with books,

An orator, too, like the great Mr.. Puff,
But that, TO our notion, is not quite enough.
In language decided the truth must be told,
Wethink for our parish he's rather too old.
For aught that we hear of he may be q saint,
And none of his errors makes aiiy complaint.
He knows all the canons and rubrics by heart.
And oft to the needy will blessings impart,
But he isn't the shepherd we want at our fold,
we think for our parish he's rather too old.
Did you ever learn that experience tells
And work by master for full value sells2
You make mistake when that man you pass
by,
And say, when inquired of the reason and
why,
In language emphatic, "The truth must be

Oh, what shall we do when our pastors get rray

THE FOURTH OF JULY.
MEETING OF CITIES TO NAKE
ARRANGEMENTS
For Celebrating the Day!

Quite a soodly number of citizens
met at the City Hall Monday even,
ing, to make arrangements for cele
brating the coming 4th of July.
On motion, A. Bradley was called
to the chair and Sheriff Deckermade
Secretary.
L. l.. Orwig, H. C. Groschner, and
E. E. Decker was appointed com
mittee on finance.
On motion of H. C. Groschner a
committee ON arrangements, consist
ing Of five members, including Chair
man Bradley, to be appointed by the
chair, resulted in the selection of the
following: A Bradley, Henry Cary,
H. Gathman, Geo. H. Rohrs and
John II. Frease.
AhO lhCClIiB was elllnuslubtlC dlll
harmonious, and but one spirit
seemed to prevail-that of celebra-
ting the glorious 4th of July upon a
grand scale, making the day for 1894
one to be long remembered in the
history of Napoleon.
Let the good citizens of Napoleon
come to the aid of the committee of
arrangements, and our beautiful lit
tie city will be ablaze with enthusi-
asm and patriotism on the 4th, and
thousands of strangers will be our
guests on that day, to accept our
hospitality and enjoy with us the
amusements of the day.
The celebration in Napoleon will
be the grandest 4th of July celebra-
tion in this part of the State,
and an invitation is extended to ev-
erybody to be present.

ranged for al part, 80 muen In oonds,
30 much in stock and the balance in
what we're termed liquidation certi6-
Gates. These latter certificates are
pa, able from the slow assets OF the con-
Germ. Ii will take some time TO pay
them of, but they are perfectly good.
To show how long it takes to fix up q
reeeivership of this kind, it needs to be
stated that il will probably require two
-ears TO redeem the liquidation certif-
Gates, and until they are redeemed
Messrs, Young and Lozer will remain
as receivers. Mr.. Young sold the old
National Cordage company to the new
corporation, known as the United
States Cordage company. but he is still
engaged in winding up the former COM
pany.
It is usually the custom for a receiv-
er, when he has e shed his work, to
make up detailed statement and pre-
sent it to the court. II it is satisfactory
the court releases the bondsmen OF the
receiver and discharges the receiver
from further duty. If the work has
been especially we'll done the court
often allows an extra compensation to
the receiver. In the case OF the Dixon
Crucible company, Hon. Theodore Run
yon, the present United States ameas-
sador to Germany, was chancellor of
New Jersey, and so pleased was he with
Mr.. Young's statement that he praised
him in the highest terms from the
bench and ordered that he be paid an
extra amount per annum for every year
he served. 1t required a number of
years to get that business on its feet.
Young took it when it was practically
a wreck, and when he turned it back,
throurh the court. to the. stockholders
it was earning -ulvldenu OF ten per
cent. In the case OF the Cordage re-
ceivership the settlement will be made
between the receivers and the reorgan-
ization committee, and the court will
practically have nothing to do with 1t.
Following the illustration to the eni,
it may be told that Mr.. Lozer is con-
stantly in attendance at the company's
Office in New York. He supervises all
the details of the business. Mr.. Young
generally spends several hours day at
the Office, arriving shortly before noon
and leaving about o'clock. He con-
ducts the big transactions. All checks
are signed by the receivers jointly.
They make payments as and when tney
choose. They have no one to consult
and no one can criticise their actions.
They are autocrats in their positions.
They have a right to pay themselves
for services on account OF the total
amount allowed them. OF course, in
case like that of Cordage, the largest
manufacturing failure, SO Mr.. Lozer
says, that New York ever knew, the
lawyers have a great deal to do. The
receivers consult them at every step.
Receivers Young and Lozer have two
very prominent counsel to assist them,
and they pay them literally. They
are John L. Cadwalader, of New York,
and William H. Corbin, of Jersey City.

erage receiver is expected to wind uI
the business, save all he can to the
creditors and turn over the balance t.
the court. His ordinary commission il
five per cent. of the total amount han
died, and after he has shown the court
that he has done all that can be &C
complished for the benefit of both
creditors and the business, he is giver
his commission and his bondsmen are
released.
But when it comes to a very large
mercantile, manufacturing or CONNER.
cial enterprise. the situation is differ.
ent. The complications that arise are
numerous. The receiver has to learn
the business to begin with. Then he
has to get acquainted with all the cred
itors, ascertain what their claims are
and how pressing they may be, and fix
up a scheme that will be mutually
agreeable all around. He has to make
an inventory of the assets and liabili.
ties. When this inventory is COM
pleted ne sizes the situation up and
states the condition of affairs in re.
port to the court. If the court is salts
fled that the creditors ought to accept
the conditions prescribed by the re-
ceivers it issues an order to that eff
feet. If it thinks the outlook is bad
and the chance of the creditors being
repaid is very slight, it orders the re-
ceiver to wind up the business and pay
the creditors the largest percentage
possible.
Probably the best way to explain the
work and duties of receiver is to take
a well-known case as an illustration.
No failure of recent years has SO
shaken the commercial world and at
the time threatened such disastrous
results as that of the National Cordage
company. Millions of dollars were in
volved when the great corporation
asked for a receiver. The shares.
both preferred and common, were list
ed on the New York Stock Exchange.
They had been selling at high figure.
Good round dividends had been paid.
The concern was supposed to be in
splendid condition. When the crash
came everybody was startled. The
company was organized under the
laws of the State of New Jersey. Con-
sequently, when it went down, appli-

the court of chancery of that common
wealth. Chancellor McGill heard the
motion at Jersey City. He named the
receivers. He appointed as first re-
ceiver Edward F. G. Young, president
of tho First National bank of Jersey
City. Mr.. Young is the star receiver
of the country. He has made repu-
tation in that line. 1t will appear
further on that his success with the
Cordage corporation entities him to
the rank he had partially attained
when he pulled the Dixon Crucible
Works, manufacturers Of the Dixon
lead pencils, crucibles, etc., out of
hole some years ago.
Chancellor McGill appointed Young
because he knew his ability in the re-
ceiver line. He required large bail,
which Mr.. Young furnished without
difficulty. Along with Mr.. Young an
other receiver was appointed in the
person of G. Weaver Lozer. Mr.. Lozer
was one OF the officers Of the National
Cordage company. He knew thahusi-

There is more Catarrh in this sec

put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-

stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced 1t incurable.

constitutional disease and therefore

Reflected Light.

A dead white surface has decided ad-
vantages for rejecting light over a look
ing glass OR bright surface. Good
white blotting paper reflects back SO
per cent of the light cast upon it. Many
persons are under the impression that
looking glass must be better reflector
than paper or whitewashed surface be-
cause with looking glass strong shad-
ow can be cast, while from dead sur
face no heavy shadow is obtained.
The reason is not so much that the re-
fected light is less from the dead sur
face, but that the reflection is concen-
trated in the case of the looking glass;
With paper or whitewash it proceeds
from vast number of points. Brook

authorizing the deposit of county and

urer to insure Ohio patrons against
loss. Within the last few days no
less than $500, 900 of these Ohio bonds
have been deposited in this manner.
The indications are that bonds of this
kind will meet with ready demand
for this purpose. The old law only
authorized the use of State and Unit

CANAL SCANDAL.
The Railroad Company That Bought 1t
MAY ENJOY VERY LITTLE
Of the Good Things Which They
Thought We're i'm Store for Them
Uncle Sammy May Have a
Word or Two to Say,

COLUMBUS, May 25.-The chances
are that the Columbus, Hooking Val
ley u Athens railroad, whose man
ayers succeeded in gobbling the Hook
ing canal, as the lowest bidder for the
property will never be built, at least
not under the act which it is current
ly believed was boodled through the
legislature in its closing days.
The fight is on already and papers
are prepared to bring injunction pro-
ceedings against the company. The
leader in this matter is Colonel w. c..
Lemert of Bucyrus, who represents
the Chicago, Columbus & Southeast
ern Railway company.
The chief legal point which will be
brought up is an attack on the validi-
ty of all previous acts for the aban-
donment of portions of the Ohio ca
nails.
This will affect the cities of Cleve-
land, Cincinnati, Toledo and other
places along the line of the canals.
The injunction will be based, among
Others, on the ground that no part of
the canal system of Ohio can be aban-
doned by the legislature without first
obtaining the consent of the general
government. When the canal system
was established the general govern
ment ceded to Ohio thousands of acres
OF land, to be sold and the proceeds
applied to the construction, the con-
ditions being that the water ways be
kept open at all times for free trans
portation of troops, arms and supplies
Of the government.
This lends new phase to the ques-
tion and if the United States courts
are appealed to and the cause has to
run the gauntlet of them the state
