A KNoTTY POINT.

The case of Keith against Robbins
has developed a curious point of law.
1t will be re membered thatJ. r. Rob.
bins abandoned the retail department
in his liquor business and leased the
premises to Keith for saloon; that be
subsequently fitted up another portion
!. of the same building and leased it to one
Sibley for another saloon; whereupor
Keith sued for an injunction to restrain
Sibley from opening a saloon upon the
premises. And now comes q new horn
in the alcoholic dilemma.
In 1856, the Legislature of Washing
ton Territory passed a prohibitory
liquor law. but left it to be ratified by
tho popular vote. But the Legislature
is proven by score of concurrent opin-
ions. to be the law making power. and
not the people. 1t is therefore held
that the section referring to the popular
vote is nullity. but that the remainder
is in fo;ce. having become law when
the bill passed, 1t is also claimed that
tho license laws of the Territory do not
by implication, repeal this act, because
they are not uniform in opera ration, but
confer special privileges in one county
not enjoyed in others.
We are at loss to see how one por-
ton of an act can be nullity and the
balance remain in full force and effect.
The act was not complete in its passage
by the Legislature, but was dependent
upon ratification by the popular vote.
The decision in the California "local
option" case was to the effect that the
law-making power was in the hands of
the Legislature and could not be delega-
ted to the people at the polls. We be-
,ieve that to he good law. 1t is set up
that the prohibition act is still in force
the License acts to the contrary, not
withstanding-and that the Courts
cannot enforce contract made in con
travention of an existing statute. The
latter is correct as proposition of law.
but is the prohibition act of 1855 liv>
ing statute? We cannot see how one
portion of an act made contingent upon
another portion, can stand as law after
the portion upon which it rests is decla, .
ed nullity. The illegality of the sec
tion submitting the act to confirmation
by popular vote. must carry with it
the illegality of the whole act. to our
idea.

all kinds and litter of any sort, should
be thrown to them. 1t is bad plan to
keep saw dust in the pens. however, as
it is heating and becomes fetid when
used too long. If any large number are
to be penned mp, trough of running
water should be built in the pen and
fed by water through bored logs.
Feeding should be done three times a
day. lightest at morning and night, the
chief feed being at noon. For spring
and summer feeding, q small patch OF
alfalfa is Indispensable. The swine
should not be allowed to run in the
field. as they will trample down and
waste fully as much as they eat; so 1t
should be moved and fed to them in
the pen. All the refnse milk of dairy
can be splendidly utilized in fattening
pork for the shambles.
FOR sLAUGHTERING AND CURING,
The best time is during cold and frosty
weather, So that the animal heat will be
instantly extingnished from the carcass.
The cold. dry climate of the region east
of the Cascades, is better calculated for
packing beef and pork than the Sound
country but even here there is an aver
age Of ten days in each month, of cold,
sharp weather that renders meet. pack
ing q most decided success. Take the
markets of Foss & Borst. 4. W. Nal
son and L. Dlller. and you will see as
fine carcasses of pork and beef as ever
you saw. The day is not far off when
the family trade of these establishments
will be but secondary consideration
with them. They will pack beef and
pork enough for foreign export, to con-
stitute an immense business in itself.

The "straw bail'' nuisance, in the
early days of San Francisco. was one OF
the many causes which led the citizens
TO rise in mass, overthrow the legal
tribunals and organize Vigilance Conn
mistee. OEtrages were committed upon
the persons and property of citizens by
men who found no difficulty in obtain
ing bail when arrested. When the day
OF trial came, they were not to be found
and their sureties invariably proved
worthless. And now it seems that the
thing is in full force again. A profes
sional bondsman, named Harris, has
been convicted of perjury and will prob
ably serve the State at San Quentin. A
few more convictions like this, will
break up the nuisance.

from New York and Vermont, to be
consumed by men who ship their wheat
