lHt Louis Times Journal
The Supreme Court of Indiana has affirmed
d principle in respect to the computation
Of time which is likely to prove Of serious
trouble to bankers and others. 1T Is that the
twenty ninth day of February and twenty
eighth day Of February are to be computed
az one day. The question was suggested by
the fact that there ten days. previous service
Of process is necessary for Judgment
And the cause having been begun
ID the last leap year. 1876. the process was not
served In time, II the twenty-eighth and
twenty-nnth days OF February were to be
computed as one day. And the court held
that they must be SO counted. The pith OF
the decision Is In these words: 1T must be
regarded as settled in this State that the
twenty-eighth aad twenty-ninth days Of Feb
ruary In every bissextile year must be COM
puted and considered in law rs one day. It
has been held by this court that the English
statute, 81 Henry ILL., s in force In this State.
This statutes, speaking Of the twenty-ntnth
day Of February In leap year provides: Com
pufHu dies ille 81 Dies ,prorime pr,eceeena pro
1n,ico die land that day, as well as the next
preceding. shall be computed as one day.
This English statute Is recognized as part
Of the law governing this State. The SER
vice of the summons was not sufficient in
law To Justify either the default entered or
the Judgment rendered.

1t is probably one Of the facts not gener-
ally known that calico printing concern ex-
listed SO long ago rs 1899 at Bed In the Can
ton Of Neuchatel. The proprietor Of 1t was q
certain jacques Deluxe. and 1t is supposed
Kochlin and Schmaltzer, who introduced the
industry into Alsace In TAG, brought their
color mixers and principal workmen from
Bied. In Its infancy calico printing on the
continent was almost a tabooed trade, and
those engaged In 1t could hardly have been
more scurvily treated II they had been busted
in an unholy art. The Republic of Mulhouse
forbade the use Of water mills for calico print
ing, and made printers pay heavy tax on
their turnover. Linen merchants, dealers in
wooden goods and silk MERGERS we're up In
arms everywhere against the dangerous nov
city of printed cottons, which they declared
were going to be the ruin of them. Pam
phlets were written against the new indus
try in which it was stigmatized as an inven-
ton Of the Evil One; governments were
prayed to put it down; shopkeepers were for
hidden to keep prints in their shops; women
who were seen wearing them In public were
assaulted, and 1t was not until the mistress of
a king Madame de Pompadourl wanted some
"furnitures" for Versailles that the trade OF
printing calicoes was permitted In France,
and became one OF the legally authorized In
dustries Of the country.
