BONDS OF The WICKED.
The Grand Jury Begins a Vigor'
Gus N sing Into Police
Court Affairs.
Clerk Foley's Chinese Bonds and thu
Who,e Familiar Mess Is Being
Gone Into.

the Grand Jury yesterday began an in
vestigation of the giving and receiving
of bonds which have to do with the liber-
ties of the multitude of the wicked who
have business with policemen and the
police courts.
Police Court bonds are always a mess of
law. politics and pulls TO which mystery
clings and which are good for an "investi-
CATION anv day. Out of the rights and
rivalries of Police Court attorneys has
come the nerve force which has caused
the Grand Jury 10 strike as it has done.
There has been bruited about story
that James Foley, a clerk in Judge Con-
lan's Police Court, has heen accepting
good-for- or-nothing bonds i'll cases of Chi
nese arrested by the police during raids
on gambling dens and so on. In all of
these cases the defendants have secured
dismissals or paid So fines. and there is no
charge or evidence that the City has lost
any good money because or the alleged
irregularities. However, the Grand Jury
is going into a rigid investigation Of Mr..
Foley's bonds and also into a more or less
thorough investigation of the whole Police
Court bond business. This Will probably
take up good deal of the Grand Jurys
attention for a few weeks.
The Grand Jury at its session yester-
day took the new matter up by unani-
luOuS COusSHl 1lcT OIcf ItS pOnued W q
summons with all the bonds he has issued
during March and April. But six of these
were gone thoroughly into a the session.
Foley testified that in all cases he was
duly satisfied of the sufficIencv OF the
security. F0ng Ding, the Official investi-
gator of Chinese bonds, was examined for
a few minutes.
1t is said that the bonds issued by Foley
will show technical irregularities, due to
carelessness and SO on, which would in
validate some of them if an action for re-
oovery were brought, but that ne and
his bonds are no better or worse than the
rest of the Police Court bond mess, which
generally deserve q shaking up and a
straight ening out. If a Police Court bond
goes lame and goes wrong and gets be-
fou ed it must be remem bered that with
all this district politics and ali these pulls
aAd with the high political values of he
sinful and lowly there are strong tempta-
tions about the wide gate. The Grand
jury then properly becomes an elevating
influence and this is expected 20 be the
outcome OF the investigation which Is
now being repeated.
The Grand Jury Will indict nobody, but
VIII find many Irregularities, much care
lessness, some things that look suspicious,
things that are wrong in the laws, and will
report accordingly, thus pulling The lines
tighter for little time and affOrding a
little healthfuI ventilation. More wit
nesses will be examined on Friday.

JASPER INDIANA. FRIDAY. MAY %. 1887.


Over one year ago this govern
ment, through the medium OF Mr..
Olney, Secretary of State, offered
its good Offices to Spain, with the
end in view of putting an end to the
destructive war going on in Cuba.
In his letter to DeLome, Mr.. Olney
made use of one significant utter
ance. He said in plain, unmistaka-
bic terms, that the United States
would not patiently regard the pros
pect of another ten-years war in a
territory where our interests were
so great. Despite this warning, the
Spaniards refused the friendly Off
ces SO properly offered. The war
has gone on and the prospects OF
Spanish success are as remote as
they we're at the very beginning.
At the same time trade between the
United States and Cuba has been
almost totally destroyed. Thous-
ands on thousands of dollars worth
of property in Cuba, owned by citi-
zens Of the United States, has been
wiped from the face Of the earth,
and hundreds of American citizens
have been ruined or thrown into
Cuban prisons. The change in con-
ditions between April, 1896, and
April, 1897, has been great, and
each step in that change has been
to the injury of the United States
and its people, and Spain has alb
Isolutely accomplished nothing more
! IN view of these facts, and they art
facts, it is difficult to understand
+ why there is such a hue and cry
, against Interference and recognition
of the belligerents now. If condi
tions warranted Olney in 1896 t
/, warn Spain of interference, the.
certainly warrant this government
in going so far as to interfere IL
: 1897. There may be no precedent
for such action, but we are certain
ly warranted in establishing a pre-
cedent. Humanity, justice and ou
: own interests justify us in at ono
, taking steps to put an end to tn
I destructive and brutal work that J
being done in Cuba. In view G
e Olney's letter, we have been patien
: and considerate. 1t is now tim
for action, and it is to be hope
: that the government will not hesitat
: longer. 1t is unquestionably tru
e that the the Morgan resolution rel

Indiana's supreme court has
handed down another decision
which contains plenty Of discomfort
for the liquor traffic. 1t holds that
any city has right by ordinance to
exclude saloons from the residence
portion of the city, even though the
keepers may already possess Ii
censes. This decision holds that a
license to sell liquor is simply a
temporary permit, which may be
revoked at any time the public good
would be served by such action.
Such claim is entirely in har-
mony with the position taken by
the United States Supreme Court in
the case of California VS. Christen-
sen, when in delivering the opinion
of the court Justice Field said:
"There is no inherent right in a
citizen to sell Intoxicating liquors
by retail it is not privilege of a
citizen of a state, or OF citizen of
the United States" "
ManisesAy, then, a license is
simply the permission for citizen
to do a thing he has no inherent
right to do, and such a doubtful and
dangerous permit ought to be sub
iect to constant recall, if granting it
in the first place was not an act Of
folly and wickedness.
The new Indiana decision will
without doubt stand the test of time
and the courts, and could be re-
peated in every state of the Union.
While court decisions which
hedge about the liquor traffic with
grievous embarrassments and vex-
atious uncertainties are helpful as
far as thcv 90, and hopeful in their
way, the thing imperatively needed
lis the direct, constitutional, and
statutory prohibition Of the liquor
traffic, backed up by ali the ma
|chinery of government from pound
keeper to Prcsident.-New York
