Sweeney Acquitted.

The first case ever tried in this
State under the twelve O'Clock
law, was the case of John Sweeny,
tried yesterday in the Justice
Court.
He conducted his own defense,
! and stated that his orders were
! always to close the saloon at II
o'clock, but that the boys stole
march on him and played era s
after Il O'Clock on the night in
question. He also said that uther
saloons in town had run after II
O'Clock on several occasions and
the proprietors had never been
arrested. The jury rendered a
verdict OF acquittal.
The verdict WIS mainly due to
the fact that Mr.. Sweeny had uni
formly c osed his saloon for two
years, except the night in ques-
ton, and was arrested although
other saloon keepers had been for
two years openly violating the law
and were never arrested.
The jury understood the situa
ton perfectly well, and did not
propose to make an example of
this case when so many Others
were going scot free.
Reno and Carson are the only
two places in the State, where
any attention is paid to the law.
In all other localities 1t is g dead
etter or quietlf evaded.
