INDIANA LIQUOR LAW.

Forty Whisky Prosecutions Dis
posed of at IndianapOlis---Li-
censes Granted.
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 22.-This 70 re-
noon Judge Perkins, Of the Superior
Court filed a lengthy list of over forty
liquor cases appealed to his court from
the Board of County Commissioners,
and the result is that the County Aud
;tor is directed to issue each of the ap-
plicants a license for retailing LIQUOR.
In this opinion Judge Perkins rules I:
l. That it is is not necessary that the
petition should contain the signature s
of those who actually vote at the cleo
ton, but rather a majority Of actual
voters in the ward.
9. That there was no evidence be-
fore him that the applicants treated
the signers to their petitions as an in
ducement or bribery for such signers.
although it was shown that the sign
ers had been treated after the sigma
tnres had been make.
5. The statute provides no particular
form, but gives the substance what it
shall be. The form objected to and
on which applications were refused by
the commissioners was prepared under
supervision of the county auditor, and
the previous board granted licenses
thereon
f. On the appeal Of Abbott ct al.
against a license being granted to
Dean Updegraff, the appellants failed
to. state that they were aggrieved by
such decision of the Commissioners.
Further, that the affidavit did not dis
close such an interest as the law con
templated, nor did it show that injury
had been done the appellants. In case
of public nuisances to a person how
ever much he may be aggrieved by it,
still il he suffers no injury in person
or property other than that which af.
ficts the public generally, he can have
no suit in court. 1t strikes me the
same rule would apply in this case,
and hence that the affidavit discloses
no legal interest in the appellants au-
thoriZing them to appeal.
