  • Council Structures Throughout the United States Overview for the 2016 Charter Review Committee
    Council structures throughout the United States Overview for the 2016 Charter Review Committee Presentation by J. Edward Johnson, Director of Legislative Affairs for Columbus City Council (as prepared for delivery) Good evening members of the Charter Review Committee. My name is Edward Johnson and I am the Director of Legislative Affairs for Columbus City Council. Chair Coe asked staff to offer an overview of the structures of municipal government throughout the United States and to provide committee members with data on the top 15 largest cities in Ohio and to offer the committee a brief overview on how Columbus City Council works. First, an overview of the forms of municipal government, with an acknowledgment of the assistance of the National League of Cities for providing much of the following information. Forms of Municipal Government The first form I will introduce members to is the mayor-council form of government, which is the category Columbus falls into. Primary characteristics of mayor-council governments include: The mayor is elected separate from the council, is often full-time and paid, with significant administrative and budgetary authority; Depending on the municipal charter, the mayor could have “weak” or “strong” powers – in Columbus’ case we have a strong mayor system: o Strong mayors are the chief executives of cities, centralizing executive power: . The mayor directs the administrative structure, appoints and removes department heads; . May exercise veto powers; . The council does not oversee daily operations of city government o Weak mayors have a powerful council, with both legislative and executive authority: . The mayor is not truly the chief executive officer, and has limited or no veto powers; 1 Council structures throughout the United States Overview for the 2016 Charter Review Committee .

    Chapter 5 U.S. Export Facilities and Ocean Transportation U.S. grains are exported from every coast in the country, as well as from the St. Lawrence Seaway in Canada. Each of the five export ranges that handle feed grains exports has a unique relationship with one or more interior producing regions. This relationship is characterized by the principal mode of transportation used to bring those feed grains into an export position. Long before the first European explorer reached the majestic sweep of the Mississippi River, Native Americans were using it for travel and trade. The Mississippi River has evolved since then into a transportation gateway to the interior of the United States. Mississippi A fleet of over 10,000 barges, towed by as many as 2,000 towboats, River/Center ply the river with many different kinds of cargo. There are nearly Gulf 6,000 miles of navigable river in the Mississippi River Basin serving the Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio, Illinois, Arkansas, Tennessee, White, Cumberland, Alabama and Minnesota Rivers. Through this system, river transportation reaches into every Corn Belt state, providing easy access to 80 percent of U.S. corn production, more than 33 percent of sorghum production and up to 15 percent of barley production. Hundreds of river terminals receive feed grains by truck or rail and transfer it into barges, each carrying approximately 1,500 tons, which are collected into tows of six or more barges and moved downriver to New Orleans or another river port. Barge transportation is traded actively between suppliers and users, quoted in percentage of tariff, and a cost schedule established with prices for each river shipping point.

  • Rhode Island's Dorr Rebellion and Bay State Politics, 1842-1843 by Erik
    108 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Summer 2011 Attorney Thomas W. Dorr (1805-54) 109 “Let the People Remember!”: Rhode Island’s Dorr Rebellion and Bay State Politics, 1842-1843 ERIK J. CHAPUT Editor’s Introduction: In 1842 a group of Rhode Island reformers took up arms in order to remove the state’s archaic form of government. The origins of the brief, but tumultuous, insurrection lay deep in Rhode Island history. The results, however, deeply impacted politics in Massachusetts. Beginning in 1776, all of the original thirteen colonies, except Connecticut and Rhode Island, wrote new constitutions and set up representative governments. The spark that led Providence attorney Thomas Wilson Dorr (1805- 54) to move from a war of words to the field of battle involved the continued reliance on the 1663 colonial charter as the state’s governing document. As John Quincy Adams noted in his diary on May 10, 1842, Dorr had taken steps to “achieve a revolution in government” because Rhode Island still “adhered” to the charter.1 Rhode Island’s colonial charter, which was still used as the state’s governing document as late as 1842, contained no amendment procedure and restricted suffrage to landowners possessing $134 of real estate. Because of the property qualification for voting, most of the populations of the growing commercial and manufacturing districts were disenfranchised. Indeed, only 40% of the state’s white male population was eligible to vote by 1840.

  • Why Unions Attacked the Single Transferable Vote in Cincinnati∗
    Bad for Party Discipline: Why Unions Attacked the Single Transferable Vote in Cincinnati∗ Jack Santucci [email protected] This version: June 28, 2017 Original: July 22, 2015 The years around World War I brought major political changes to advanced industrial democracies. New demands led to rapid extensions of voting rights, mass defections to labor- based parties, and the adoption of proportional representation (PR) voting schemes.1 The last of these is the most important cause of a multi-party system.2 Roughly speaking, if a party gets ten percent of votes, it gets ten percent of legislative seats. Political scientists have long observed that social democracy thrives under PR.3 Oftentimes, as in Australia, Germany, and Switzerland, local PR experiments predated a national adoption.4 The United States was not immune to the global changes in party systems. Women won the vote in 1920, officially doubling electorates in states that had not yet granted voting rights.5 Third-party presidential runs in 1912 and 1924 shook the Republican Party in the Mountain States and American Midwest. This intra-party fighting continued in cities where reformers rewrote voting rules to eject the old-style parties from power.6 From 1915-48, in fact, the chosen reform in 24 cities was proportional representation. ∗Jasmine Underwood provided research assistance. Bill Collins, Jack Lucas, Colin Moore, Hans Noel, Rob Richie, and Kent Weaver gave helpful feedback on earlier drafts. Bill Gradison gave important insight into local history. 1 Compared to PR systems in

    Case 1:19-cv-02063-KPF Document 23 Filed 03/06/20 Page 1 of 20 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK BST CORPORATION, Plaintiff, 19 Civ. 2063 (KPF) -v.- M/V ELLIOTT BAY (NOW M/V DALLY), OPINION AND ORDER PACIFIC BASIN HANDYSIZE LIMITED, and PACIFIC BASIN HANDYSIZE (HK) LTD., Defendants. KATHERINE POLK FAILLA, District Judge: Plaintiff BST Corporation (“BST”) brought this admiralty action for damage to its cargo (the “Cargo”) against the ship that carried the Cargo — then known as the M/V Elliott Bay and now known as the M/V Dally — as well as Pacific Basin Handysize Limited and Pacific Basin Handysize (HK) Ltd. (collectively, “PBHS”), the entities that own and operate the M/V Dally. PBHS now moves to dismiss the suit for lack of personal jurisdiction, and BST opposes that motion, citing a forum-selection provision in which PBHS ostensibly consented to jurisdiction in the Southern District of New York. For the reasons explained below, which differ somewhat from the arguments advanced by the parties, the Court finds the forum-selection provision to be enforceable and therefore denies PBHS’s motion.

The Relevant Agreements On January 10, 2018, PBHS,2 as “Owners” of the M/V Dally, and Tung Ho Steel Enterprise Corporation of Taiwan (“Tung Ho”), as “Charterers,” entered into a Charter Party Fixture Note (the “Charter Party”),3 for the shipment of the Cargo from Taiching, Taiwan, to North America.

CHIANG* INTRODUCTION The characterization of a water carrier as either a 'common or a private carrier involves the application of a common law doctrine' which continues to be of significance today. Originally the common law applied the term "carrier" solely to the counterpart of the modern day "common carrier," while the term "bailee" was applied to the counterpart of the modern day "private carrier."2 This com- mon law distinction was relevant with respect to the nature of the 3 liability which might attach to the carrier for damage to cargo, with respect to burdens of proof,4 and finally, with respect to lia- bility for refusal to carry a shipper's goods.

    “The Dupes of Hope Forever:” The Loco-Foco or Equal Rights Movement, 1820s-1870s by Anthony Comegna BA, Shippensburg University, 2010 MA, University of Pittsburgh, 2012 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P.

While historians have assumed that the Loco-Foco movement ended with the existence of the original third party in New York (1836-7), I pursue their philosophy and activism throughout the time and space of the late antebellum period. Loco-Focoism can be characterized as radical classical liberalism, including commitments to natural and equal rights, individualism, private property, laissez-faire, democratic republicanism, and, often, antislavery. Self-avowed and influential Loco-Focos included Herman Melville, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Walt Whitman, and countless other important figures in antebellum thought, culture, and politics ranging across the continent from New England and the northern border to the Pacific frontier zone and even the increasingly proslavery, anti-locofoco South.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyriglited materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
