It viii be seen that the increase at

AN INDIANA FARMER.

HIS CURIOUS HISTORIC MODEL HOUSE AND
FARN-THE RESULT or ENERGY.
The history of Mr.. J. b. Mckinney, who
is well known in this city, is curious one.
AS an example of energy and enterprise it is
one OF few. Mr.. Mckinney is now known
as the owner of one of the largest and most
complete farms in the state. When he was
twenty-one years old he left home with
just 81 cents in his pocket and he has
never had dollar given him in his life. To-
day he owns farm of 1000 acres in RAN
dolph county. He is large stock dealer
and has now about 500 head of cattle on his
farm, His house is wonder in its way,
standing q stories high with basement. 1t
contains 40 rooms, SO doors and so windows.
To cover the floors | 200 yards of carpet
were used. The cellar is finished with
plaster of Paris, and contains hanging
shelves that will accommodate 1000 bushels
of apples; water through the house is con-
veyed through pipes tnree-fourth of a mile
from the source. The house is built OF
brick, slate roof, gothic style, with a fine OBJ
servatory. The outside walls are puttied,
making smooth surface, which is painted.
Inside the rooms are furnished in the most
elegant and tasteful manner. The walks
surrounding the house and leading to the out
houses are all tiled. The out-houses are as
complete as the residence; carpenter shops;
weighing house for stock; ice house, stables,
etc. The same perfection OF arrangement
extend over the entire farm. No less than
$50 gates being used in the various divisions.
Altogether it is one of the most complete
farms and the residences said to be the finest
farm house in the state of Indiana.

THE INDIANA SENTINEL TUESDAY JANUARY 1a l874

the case being one which involves not only
construction of the constitution, but a
question of great importance to the public
they deem it their duty to state at length the
grounds and reasons of dissent. In arguing
the point whether the 6h section of the act
is void because in conflict with the 10th Sec
ton of article of the state constitution, they
say that only part of the 9th section is SCI
out in the opinion of the majority of the
court. They claim that a correct under
standing OF the objects spght and mischiefs
to be avoided by the constitution in section
10, article 4, viii throw light upon the inter
probation of the statute in question. BY
reference to many authorities they show
that the mischieis intended to be prevented
by the constitution were tricks of legisIa-
ton where, by linking two subjects under
one title. members might be betrayed into
voting for what they did not in
tend to support. The rule OF
construction is quoted which requires
a consideration of all the lights which dis
close the intention of the clause in the minds
of the trainers. After defining the rules OF
construction, the dissenting judges say they
approach the examination of the question
with profound Difference to the views ex-
pressed by a majority of the court, and
duly impressed with the importance of the
subject. They admit that the matter en-
braced in the ninth section of the act is not
tADItSStu III luc llIlc VI TIC Jill. Dut tucJ
claim that it is properly connected with the
subject expressed. The title of the bill
specifies the sale of Intoxicating liquors, and
the question arises whether this would adj
NIT the provision to punish intoxication
as an offence. Is intoXication so connected
with the sale of intoxicating liquors that
this provision NAV be lawfully included
nder the title? Generally where there is
intOxication there has been a sale of liquors.
but not always, for the liquor may have
been obtained otherwise than by purchase.
The purpose of the act is stated
to be not only TO regulate the
the sale of intoxicating liquors, but also to
provide against evils resulting from the sale
thereof 1t would seem that to punish in
toxication is to provide to some extent
against the evils arising from the sale. The
subject of an act should be reasonably speci-
fic; a proper subject OF legislation should be
expressed in the title, and not all the details
of the law. If the details of the act have a
legal connection with the provisions of the
act. it satisfies the constitutional require
ment. review of the former decisions OF
the supreme court upon the construction OF
this law is then introduced, to show that the
9Th section of the act is properly connected
with the subject expressed in the title. The
acts incorporating the bank OF the state, the
state VS.. Adamson, the liquor law of 1889,
and quite a list of other cases are cited in
support of the view taken in the dissenting
opinion. Thequoted presidents are long and
numerous, and it would seem quite appli-
cable to the case under consideration.
