WHfrE WOMEN AND 'NIGGERs. One Of
the beauties of the liquor law just enacted
by our wise law markers consist in probibl-
ting none from selling liquors except white
male Inhabitants This gives the white
women and niggers the privilege Of selling,
and provides no pcnaly as against them.
This. so far rs it relates to 'niggers,' is
supposed to be move by our Republican
Legislature. in opposition to the bred
Scott decision. 1t is probable. also, since
the Republicans prize the darkies so high
ly. that the exclusion of women from the
operations of the law was intended as a
compliment to the ladies'! Can't tell =
