DEALERS SHOULD BE CAREFUL

The proprietors of saloons should
read their bonds and for their own
good aud that of their securities
maintain every condition therein set
forth. The courts and juries when
these contracts are broken, violated,
are required to act on presentation
by an aggrieved person and of
course,are guided by the plain terms
of the written instrument. This, has
been exemplified in Lewis county of
this State. a father sued a liquor
dealer for Hing his minor son liquor
resulting in insanity. The bond
prohibits selling to minors. The
court awarded 1900 dollars dam
ages and the judgment has been
affirmed. The same may be true as
10 other conditions, selling to intox-
icated persons or those persons
known TO be in the habit of becom-
ing intoxicated, therefore, those who
would be on the safe side should be
careful in their dealings, otherwise a
five or ten cent sale may prove
very expensive to the seller.

DEWEY SAFE,

"A nan S a man for a that" said
Robbie Burns, and the distinction
is ga man, - not simply a two-legged
concern with bread bunker and
breathing apparatus, is the line
drawn, the distinction asserted. So
the politicians seek to twist all
things that bear fruit into their
paths, that they, the great blather-
sixties of self, the cyclones of pelf
and corruption, the flies that destroy
the wheat, tine worms that eat the
farmers corn, the birds of prey that
soar and deyoug, feast and fatten
from the doings, The good deeds, the
brave actions, the earnest efforts Of
manly men, scarcely reach the dis
tinction, "a mans q maa for a
that" Admiral Dewey's brother
tersely and aptly draws a proper
distinction for the edification Of
these place planters, position hunters.
The great naval victory reused the
politicians, oh, yes, said the jingo,
Nj. C. Dewey is man, q great man,
be is a Democrat. No such thing
retorted the opposing lingo bones,
he is a Republican, only a Republi-
can man could do that. The fight
was on between these land terra
pins, these screeching Jay birds, aud
one hunted up the address of Dewey's
brother and telegyaphed for infor.
nation on this important point.
Straigbtway on lightning wings, the
answer came, dewey has always
been Republican, but neUer a poll.
tician.n The italics are ours. No,
no, never a politician" If he had
been the battle Of Manila Bay
would not yet have been fought. It
would yet emaia strategy, strategy,
maneouyuriag for position, always
that ami nothing more, like Cevera,
he would be wandering in and out
Of channels, hiding by day and
stealing away at night going to find
the enemy on shore, far away, but
never finding aught but a clicking
cable. The distinction is drawn,
Dewey is safe, "always a Republi.
can, but neuer a politician.
Moral You can be an excellent
citizen, a good Democrat or Repub-
lican, "a mans man for "a that
but look out for the exception.
