A New Construction of the Adair
Liquor Law.

Judge.Foote, Of the Common Pleas
Court of this county, has put newcon-
struction upon the so-called ,Adair liq-
uor law of 1870, which must have the
effect to greatly limit the operation of
the statute and exclude a large class of
cases in which suit for damages is
made. In charging the,jury in a case
of this kind, Judge E'oote held that
sthe intoxicating liquors sold must be
other than ale, beer, rider, or, wine
made of the pure juice of the grape cui-
tivated in the State of Ohio" These
beverages are excepted from the pro-
vision of;tne law forbidding the selling
OF Intoxicating liquors to be drank up
on the premises where sold; and the
Judge held that the plaintiff suing for
damages must make. out an unlawful
sale in order to recover. We have not
noticed that this construction has been
before put upon the law of 1870; but il
it issustained, the Adair' law will be-
come practically worthless, since, in
ninety mine cases out of a hundred, il
will be impossible to prove By aChat
Kind ofHquor the Intoxicated was or
was not made drunk. The whole ques-
ton, as itseems to US, turns on whether
the law of 1870 did not intend that the
sellers of all kinds of intoxicating Hq-
uers, including ''wine, beer, ale, or ci-
der,n should be liable for damages
resulting directly from such sale though
.theact of selling was not Itself unlaw-
5fdl. Gases heretofore tried under this
law have. been adjudged. on that suppo-
.sition. iThe:question thus raised is OF
great importance as affecting the eff

The people down this way are dis
cussing the possibility of a property
qualification clause in the amendments
to the constitution. and to make long
story short, theythink there is no law
compelling man to be rich, therefore
if the iich think, the poor are having
too many privilegeson account of theil
poverty, let them become poor like
wise and therefore be favored. The
wise workers and manipulators with
their money may send delegates to the
convention to make such amendments
as they desire, but when it comes be
fore the people for ratification, then the
poor man can assert his rights at the
ballot box with a certain knowledge
that his vote is as great as that of a rich
man. CITIZEN.

THE "HoODLUMg QUESTION.

Like mahy other cities San Francisco is
bothered to know what 10 do with the rough, half grown
youths who nfest society, annoy peaceable people.
destroy property, and make themselves generally use
less and burdensome. This particular kind Of Juvenile
rowdy is locally known "HOOdlum." Several
lawyers, dvlnes, and teachers have made public ad
dresses the vexed problem Of the and Of
HoOdumism. The Hon. Frank NJ. Pixley, formerly L.
s. DstrctAttOrney for California is the last to speak
an address the subject, he Is reported taking
this picturesque view OF early California society:
California originally settled by gamblers. and this
early passion has continued 10 the present day, till
NAV almost say to-day that our population Is composed
OF gamblers The men OF 49 and 80 exclusively
OF this class that scarcely find the occasional
ceptOn, which prove the rule while our immigrants OF
later years have also become nnOcuated with the
faint And still strife goes On-legtimate business
and honest industry pods weariy along, unencouraged
and unsupported. We have some few patient toilers,
content 10 and live, work ndusfrOusly and live
honestly but the great proportion OF our business sto
gambe money is ever ready for risky adventure
that promises rich, though iiegitlmae and unlawful
return. And In the face Of all this decentralization, Is II
any for surprise that boys and girls do not
grow up the models Of virtue and prOprietyf We
have withdrawn from them the restraints OF a
strict discipline OF moral example, and
wonder that they take advantage Of their freedom.
We have excused them from labor by NOT having pro.
vided employment for them. We furnish them with but
few national aud cheap amusements and we are vexed
that they seek those that not innocent, We in
dCnan because they.do not avoid their snares We fur
nish biliardroOms whskysalOons, dancecelars, melo
deOns, and brothes all over town. and affect 70 be
surprised that they produce such fatal results What
ght has that father who respects nothing human or
ulNlDt, VINO mas
OF another, who lives by his wits, has legitimate
business who has Sabbath for himself, who has cul
tivated taste for domestic life. who drinks public
Saloons who profane language, who avoids honest
industry for himself and does not by his conduct
70 honor its possession by another how shall such a
father expect his gTOwD the model OF industry
temperance, honesty and hOnorl
These questions have been asked in other cities than
San Francisco if not they may be. But is not the
speaker rather bold in his Characterization Of the Argo
nauts Of 49f when Bret Harte, in his lecture, hined
something like that charged with uttering Sian
der Surely Mr.. Pixleys speech is nothing short Of
treason.

WHAT TURNED THEIR HEADS.

The Albany Knickerbocker is of the opinion
Congressman have been corrupted by the general
drift OF commercial opinion. which is toward stock
gambling rather than toward honest and legitimate
business. 1t says:

eminent public men in tho country-Repubcans as well

Gambling in stocks in wast. made gambling popular.
