LIQUOR LICENSE LAW.
A Suit Brought to Test II rs Regards
Grocers who Sell Booze.


Grocers who Sell Booze.
Mr.. Connolly of the county attorneys
Office. at the request of County Treas
urer Kinds. yesterday drew up a COM
plant in a suit of the state against
Thomas r. Courtney, the grocer, for
$500 due for liquor license the past year
The suit is brought to test the liability
of grocers to pay liquor cense under
the law passed by the last legislature.
The law has been in force more than a
year. but no license has yet been col
lected in Silver o county from gro
GERS who handle liquor. Under the law
all dealers who sell liquor i'm quantities
of a quart or more are required to pay
a wholesalers license Of $3.50 semi-an-
nually i'm advance. The law was in
PRODUCED and pushed through the leg
islature by the liquor dealers in order
TO force the grocers out of the business,
but the grocers claim the law Is faulty,
or unconstitutional. or something like
that. and have refused to pay the
license, and no great efforts have been
made to compel them to. A suit to test
the law was brought in Deer Lodge
county about a year ago n II was to
have been appealed to the supreme
court for final decision. Mr.. Kinds has
been awaiting h result of that case.
but a few days ago he learned hat
the Anaconda man against whom the
suit was brought, has since died n
the Ease was dropped. so he concluded
to bring another action in Butte, n
the case will be pushed to a final decis-
ion to determine whether the grocers
shall pay q liquor license or not.

PEOPLE SHOULD TEST IneIh EYES.
Defect In Sight Should Be Attended To ut the
Earliest Possible noment.

In conversation with DIR. the
following facts We're learned, which no
doubt will be a surprise to IA great
many people. He makes the statement
that apparently few people who seek
his assistance a eyes hat are per-
feet mates and hat In many cases
people learn from him for the first time
that they have an y that II practi-
cally useless. and still they might have
known this themselves had they taken
the pains To have covered each eye in
turn and tried the sight for reading or
for looking about the room. Opticians
often meet people who have been de-
pending wholly upon the sight OF one
eye for years and are unconscious OF
the fact until the good eye gives out
from being overtaxed. Experiences of
this kind are quite frequent and IL
seems strange that people do not give
a little more serious thought to this.
the most precious OF our senses. and
ascertain for themselves IL their eyes
are both alike. Then there would be
little occasion for people to come to
the sudden realization that they were
really minus an eye. Parents should
give this particular attention when
their children complain of their eyes
hurting them. And by simply putting
a card over each eye in turn and a lit
tie close questioning. parents will find
to their surprise that their children
really have but n eye which is per
feet, and IL this matter is properly at
tended to in early life. IL means the
saving of the poor one.
The doctor will remain for about
eight days longer and those who have
delayed calling on him regarding their
eyes. should not delay longer. His
ability is too well known TO be ques-
toned for a moment by anyone who
has taken the pains to inquire of any
one of the hundreds of people in Butte
who have consulted him. Parlor &.
