Ax adventurous ami romantic career
terminated Thursday in the death of ex
rVnator Gwin, of California, our only
duke. His title was obtained from Max
imilian, and waa about as worthless to
the recipient as Maximili in's empire in
Mexico was Uertinc The duke'a Inter
years were spent as a lobbyist in Wash
innton a very respectful avocation, ac
conline to the code of ethics that has
prevailed for many years at the national
capital.
PuRiNU John Sherman's tenure of office
as senator or cabinet minister since the
close of the war several hundred cx-cous
federates were appointed to important
public positions by successive republican
administrations. We speak now only of
offices which require the assent of the
senate before they can be rilled . Amos
I. Akerman was nominated to a place in
Grant's cabinet. Sherman himself sat
beside Erring Brother Key in tbe Hayes
cabinet. James L. Orr was appointed
minister to Hussia as was John. Settle to
Peru. Wbv dU John Sherman never
weep or protest when he saw those ex
n;bel brigadiers and many like them lifted
into the saddle? Now lie trembles for
the miliary because Lamar and Garland
are in the cabinet. But if John were to
tell the honest truth and shame the father
of lies, he would admit that he is merely
trying to dodge the irrepressible liquor
issue in Ohio.
THE AFPOWTIHQ POWER.
The constitution declares, "The execs
utive power shall be, vested in a president
of the United States of America." Sec
tion 2 of article 2 says that the president,
"by and with the advice and consent of
the senate, shall app"int ambassadors,
other public ministers and consuls, judges
of the supreme court, and all other offi
cers of the United States, whose appoint
ments are not herein otherwise provided
for, and which shall be established by
law; but the congress may by law vest
the appointment of such inferior officers,
as they think proper in tbe president
alone, in the courts of law, or in the
heads of departments.''
All officers whose appointments are not
herein, that is in the constitution, "oth
erwise provided for-' shall be appointed
by tbe president. The side cases here
other provisions have been made are that
certain inferior officers may be appointed
by the courts of law or the heads of de
partments. Congress is thus authorized
by the fundamental law to transfer a part
of the appointing power to one co-ordinate
and one subordinate branch of the
government, and to vest in these two
depositories of power only. Now, if
the board of civil service commis
sioners is one of "the courts of law,'
congress can rightfully confer the power
to appoint inferior officers upon such
board. If the hoard is one of "the ht-aib
of departments" it can also control cer
tain appointments by direction of con
gress. But by "the heads of depart
ments" is always understood the heads of
the seven great executive departments of
the government; that is, the officers or
ministers of the cabinet of the president.
That this is necessarily the correct mean
ing of the phrase "the heads of depart,
ments" is shown by the fact that the
heads of such important departments as
those of the collector and the surveyor of
the port of New York cannot and since
the formation of the government have rot
been autbobized to appoint a clerk or
even a messenger without the sanction of
the secretary of the treasury. The three
depositories of the aiiixiinting power are
distinctly pointed out in the supreme
law. Neither the civil service board nor
and other board or commitsion hapnens
to be one of the three.
But it is argued that a board outside
of the constitution can discharge a part
of the power of appointment or assist the
constitutional agents of that power in the
discharge of their duties. But the pres
ident swears "to preserve, protect and
defend the constitution," and all heads of
departments aud all judges swear fidelity
to the same instrument, and hence they
cannot transfer or delegate powers vested
in them alone. If the appointing power
cannot be transferred by congress its free
exercise cannot be limited by act of con
gress. If it can be restricted at all it can
be taken away.

A COFFEE DSUNKAED.

'What a bright eyed man," said a re
porter who leaned against the cashier's
desk of a restautant near the public
buildings one dav last week. Tbe man in
question had just paid a ten cent check
and slipped out of the door with a jerky
movement and a swinging of the cane he
carried which decidedly endangered the
people 8 peace.
'Bright eyed? lea, said the cashier,
"he's a coffee drunkard."
"What's a coffee drunkard?"
"A man who comes in here four limes
in two hours, as that man has this morn
ing and docs every morning and takes a
half pint of coffee every time, is a coffee
drunkard. Bright eyes! Well I should
say so. That man's condition all the time
is the same as that of a man who is (ret

are up in 'G,' his muscles are all a quiver

Mr. David Claymolt formerly fsernejuit-:it-Arr.LsoftheJiew

Notary Public at Cedarville, CuiiiUTlnnil
t., K.J., makes Ihe following pUirtliii);
statement: "My father, mother, anil three
sisters all died with cnnsuniition, anil my
liniesi were so weak I raised blood, fiolsidy
tliiuiulit I could live. My work (ship
Fiiiilliinelwns very straininnon me with my
weak constitution, and 1 was rapidly fining
to the grave. While in this condition 1
eomnieiiced using Mishler's Herb Hitters,
and it (saved my life. Ilecaiise it was so
ilillii-ult to get it in this little (ilaee, nnd 1
had improved so much, I stopped taking it
for a time, and the result is thnt I have
commenced going rapidly down bill agnin.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bittern gives
appetite ami strengthens and builds nie up
as nothing else does, and 1 must have a
dozen bottles at once. Use this coinnui
nioalion as you please, and if any one wauls
to lie convinced of its truth, let them write
me and 1 will make affidavit to it, for 1
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Hitters."
Thesecret of the almost invariable relief
and euro of consumption, dysentery, dinr
rhicn, dysjiepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Hitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor
ates the whole system. Iurely vegetable
in itaFoniposition; prepared by a regular
physician ; a standard medicinal prepara
