10 the Editor of the Globe:

To the Editor OF the Globe:
Your editorial in the GLOBE of the 10Th
inst. in regard to the adulteration of intoxi-
cants ought and should be appreciated by
the general public.
IntOxicants have always been sold i'm
some form, aud always will, but to get
them pure in our day is as impossible as il
was for Proctor Knott To find Duluth on
the map of the United States when he
made his famous speech in the now famous
Zenith city.
If YOU compel the butcher to take out a
license. and also employ an inspector to
compel him to sell nothing but good and
wholesome meat, why not. l ask. compel
the saloonkeeper to sell good and whole
some drinks.
Should our wise men max e this law. |
think-yeS. / AIN SuTe-it would at once
lessen the number of saloons. because then
they could not be their own distillers. /
wish 10 see the high license advocates and
Prohibition party unite on this one Ques-
ton. BY so doing they would get great
many 10 vote with them who now will not

Pullman Coach RobBeries.

Special to the Globe.
OMAHA, Neb., Aug 90. - For the last
two nights the Pullman coach of the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy train which
leaves Chicago at 1890 p. IN. has been the
scene Of extraordinary plundering. Friday
night George l.. Woolsey, president of the
Nebraska DiStillery company at Nebraska
City, tcketed from Chicago to Omaha, was.
during the night, deprived of his hand lug
gage, which contained some very valuable
private papers and a quantity OF clothing.
1t was learned here to-day that a similar
occurrence Of a more sensational character
took place on the same train the night pre-
yiOus. The Chicago drummer. who carried
with him large sum of money, exchanged
bertis la the evening with a young woman
passenger, giving her a center lower berth
Tor less comfortable forward upper. 10
WIl!ch she had been forced by late choice.
4 illieI, who would perhaps have been a
murderer, had followed the drum
mer out from Chicago, but still
thought the travelling man to be
IN The berth he had engaged. In tine mid
die OF the night, while the porter slept pro-
loundly, the young woman was awakened
from light slunber by movement of her
curtains, followed by the stealthy intrusion
OF a masked yisage. She started to a Sit
ting posture but at this moment hand
was quickly thrust into the berth, and a
powerful blow upon her forehead drove her
| down senseless. She screamed simultane-
ously with the assault, and tine passengers
sprang to the aisle ia a fever of excitement
Pm fooled; its woman" calculated the
masked man, and with sudden leap he
pulled the bell cord. Before the excited
| occupants could take in the situation, the
train had checked and the robber had
! sprung to the ground. disappearing in the
darkness. The unfortunate woman was
restored to consciousness, but her features
viii be temporarily dishgured by bruise
above her eyes, such as a slung shot would
make.

these logs were not driven before is that
most of them were scattered and at such \
distance from the main river as to REQUIRE
the services of teams TO get them back. The
force will comprise thirty men. who left

Illegal COMPLICATION
Affecting Federal and Territorial
JuFisdiction over Indians.

United States District Attorney John Z.
Garland passed through ST. Paul yesterday
EN- route from DeadwoOd to his home in
Bismarck. He will return to Deadwood to
the sitting OF the supreme court in October.
He reports considerable excitement over
the extension of the Northwestern system
into the Black hills country and general
satisfaction on the part of the travelling
public by the shortening of fifty miles of
tine stage ride. bv transferring the coaches

terminal of the ElhOTn branch. Asked as
To affairs judicial Mr.. Garland was moved
10 explain complication which is clOgging
the machinery OF the courts. especially in
the hills. Ii appears that at the last session
OF congress at the end OF the Indian apprO-
priation bill piece of general legislation
was added as q rider in the form of a sec
ton, which Judge Church Of the First dis
triet holds transfers the jurisdiction to
punish any Indian who commits murder,
manslaughteT, robbery, assault with intent
to Kill or larceny, either against any other
Indian or against any white person,
either within or without the limits
Of the reservation, to the territorial
side Of the court; that Indians committing
these onenSeS must not be tried as long as
the law remains in force on the federal side
OF the court, but the same as other persons
who commit crimes against the territorial
law. This will result in the Indians going
fees from the commission of these crimes,
because the counties are not able and will
not assume the reSonspOnSibility if they
were TO 20 TO the expense of Furnishing
them. The law seems to have been
drawn as rider on the Indian appropria-
ton bill by some person who meant to
remedy the evil of the old law which was
disclosed in the Crow Dog case, and was
not aware Of the dual jurisdiction of our
courts in the territory. Efforts will be made
by the courts, the district attorney and
others at the next session of congress to
have the evil corrected.
