OF rain last night, and this morning We observe
considerable quantities Of substance rssem-

From The Ohio Organ Of Temperance.
INDIANA TENPEnANOR Law.

We intended to have noticed this beautiful
specimen Of modern legislation in detail, but up
on further reflection we have concluded that Il
is not worthy Of such notice; the ammunition 10
worth more than the game. II Is disgrace to
its authors and supporters, and an insult to the
intelligence Of the people Of the State. We
sincerely hope that the friends Of temperance In
Indiana will not be deluded into the belief that
anything good can be accomplished by its en-
forcement.
We hope they will let the law and the Leg
islature die together. The enemies OF temper
anoe could not have constructed better dead
fall for those who are silly enough to nibble at
such bait. The Legislature have put into the
hands Of the friends of decency little switch
with which 10 attack skunk, and forbidden
them to use deadly weapon. Il is not diff
cult to fOretell who will get wOrsted in the UNI
equal conflict. d h,.
The Legislature had the same pious streak
which has characterized all that preceded it,
when providing for the legal sale of whisky,
viz: "No liquor must be sold on the Sabbath"
Oh no, it would be awful to keep a bar open
on the Lord'S day This provision has exist
ed in some form for the last two hundred years,
and yet has always been shamefully and notori-
ously violated, and it always will be. We were
struck with the humanity and policy of the 7th
section Of the Indiana Act. It reads thus:
"Sec. Z. Amy person who shall, by the re-
failing Of Spirituous liquor, cause the intoxica-
ton Of any person, shall board keep and take
care Of such person until he shall be able, with
out assistance, safely to return to his home; and,
on failure 10 do so, it shall be lawful for any
other person to do so, or cause the same to be
done; which person shall have an action against
such retailer, for reasonable compensation for
such service, and fifty per cent. damages there
on"
If it would not be uncharitable, we would
suspect that some Of the members of the Gene
raj Assembly had had a bitter experience on
this point, by being kicked out of village bar
room drunk some night, or that at day, not far
future, when they had but single dime left,
they might go to tavern, get drunk, and sponge
their board for few days. 1t would certainly
be very pleasant for poor devil when out Of
change, 10 sit round bar-room till some kind
friend invited him to drink, and thus secure
him lodging and good nursing for the night
Section II provides that, all houses where Ii
quor is sold in less quantity than quart, with
out first obtaining license, are, and shall be,
held as common and public nuisances," and
proceeded against as such. What qualification |!
A license destroys a nuisancell Oh! HOoSier-
dem, what progress backwards
Temperance men Of Indiana, we bsseech you
TO let the friends of such monster sustain il |!
Treat it as a nullity, (for you will find il worse
than a nullity If you attempt its enforcement, }
and organize at once TO elect different men next
winter.
