cases that taxation cannot be imposed by a
corporation except for corporate purposes,
and that the bonds issued in this instance
were not ior a corporate purpose. A muni
oipal corporation cannot incur a liability and
levy and collect taxes on the property of a
citizen to aid in the development of mere
private enterprises. Whether the proposed
improvement would or would not have been
of great benefit to Ottawa and its citizens
was a matter of no moment, if the debt was
not created for a corporate purpose. The
city had no power to incur the debt and
issue the bonds.
reojile ex rel. Richard J, Fulleron v. Hiram
T. Gilbert, County Judge, etc. Affirmed
Opinion by Judge Sheldon. This was a pe
tition filed in the Circuit Court of this coun
ty for a writ of mandamus to Judge Gilbert
to allow the relator, Richard J. Fullerton, an
appeal to the Circuit Court of this county
from a finding that the latter was insane in
a proceeding had in the County Court. The
sole question here presented is whether the
right of appeal from the finding and order in
the County Court exists in this proceeding
to enquire into the alleged insanity of a per
eon. The proceeding is an inquest as to the
state of one's mind to enquire whether or
not he is insane. It is true that notwith
standing the contrary finding of the jury,
the alleged insane person might be sane ;
but if the appeal lies, it lies in all cases
equally, whether the person be a raving ma
niac or mildly nfllicted with insanity, or be
in fact sane. There can be no distinction.
The finding of the jury and the order of the
court, at least, must be taken as presumptive
evidence that the person alleged to be insane
is insane, and that his case renders proper
his immediate commitment to the state hos
pital for the insane. It is provided that
when any patient committed to the hospital
shall be restored to reason he shall be dis
charged, and that if he be detained afterward
contrary to his wishes he shall have the
privilege of a writ of habeas corpus at all
times, and herein lies the remedy.
Circuit Court.
The county court was occupied yesterday
by the trial of the People v. Linsbeck, of
West Ottawa, charged with assault with a
deadly weapon. On the night of Sept. 30th

his wife on the head and knocking her sense

never known of a similar case, and he would

fore taking it up. He also stated that the
matter would probably be tried before Judge
