RESPONSIBILITY of SALOONS.

Friends Of temperance In Indiana are
congratulatng themselves on account
Of a decision by the Supreme court, ac-
cordlng to which saloon keepers are
held responsible to victims OF the IL
quor traffic, The case decided was, ac-
cordng to a special TO the Record-H Her
aid, in substance, as follows:
About two years ago George Homire
Of Lebanon came home intoxicated and
picked quarrel with boarder. The
latter was killed, and Homire was SEN
fenced to Imprisonment for life.
1t was alleged that the convict, when
sober, was a kind husband and of fair
~ equable temperament also that on
the evening Of the murder he had been
drinking at the saloon Of John A, Half
man. On these grounds the wife sued
the saloon-keeper for $4,000 damages
The lower court sustained the demur-
rer Of the defendant, but the Supreme
court declared this to be an error, re-
yersed the case and remanded 1t to be
tried on Ia merits,
The court holds that the homicide
committed by Homire was a crime pun
lshable by Imprisonment, and that his
arrest conviction and punishment were
results naturally to be expected to fol-
low It's commission, and that a showing
by the plaintiff that the sale Of the
liquor TO him while intoxicated caused
the crime sufficiently establishes the
fact that Il caused the Imprisonment,
and Mrs. Homire's consequent loss OF
support, In other words, II the crime Is
shown 10 be the result Of intoxlcatlon.
and intoIleatlon the result Of the sale
Of the liquor by Halfman, the saloon
keeper cannot plead that the sale does
not cause the loss Of support for this
Is the result Of the crime Just as the
crime Is the result Of being intoxicated,
Further constituting the statute, the
court holds that 1t is necessary only
that two facts should concur, outside of
the sale OF the liquor by the defendant.
to constitute a cause for action. The
first OF these is the intoxication, caused
In whole or in part by the sale of the
liquor and the second Is the loss
OF support In consequence Of such in
toxlcation. And this is true. says the
court whether this loss Of support Is a
direct or a remote result of the intoxi-
cation.
The decision is regarded as one Of the
greatest Importance, and as far-reach-
ing In Its consequences. 1t fixes upon
the seller Of intoxicants the response
oliity for even indirect consequences Of
mat traffic. and Justly SO. II Is we'll
known that liquor, in some cases, is
very dangerous, because 1t renders the
victims Of II irresponsible for their acts,
TO some extent. Why should not the
seller Of II be compelled to handle II
with care and discretion? 1t Is a crime
TO sell intosicants TO Indians. Why
should 1t not be criminal to sell II to
persons who may be come as dangerous
as intoxicated Indians?

ca would diminish the colored popula-
ton here. Would not the annual birth
rate more than supply the number any
ordinary steamship line could convey
to foreign shores2
No doubt, such emigration would be
a good thing The colored people here
would feel more hopeful. were the
gates Of city OF refuge opened to
them against the oppression they suf-
fer In some parts Of the country. But
as for those remaining here, and they
would number millions, the problem
would remain the same. II is even
question whether IL would not become
stlll more complicated. The race would
lose a large percentage Of its best In
dividuals, and the elevation Of the re-
mainder 20 the desirable moral and
social level would be retarded.
Still, II, as Bishop Turner thinks,
there IL a quite general desire among
the negroes OF this country TO einigrate
somewhere, they ought to be given an
opportunity TO do SO, II would, II that
10 true, be paying proposition to es-
tablish a line of steamers for that
trade. But where Is the country to
which they could go? Where Is the
city OF refuge that would welcome mill
lions Of human beings, dissatisfied with
the conditions IN their own country?
Were that question settled, the negroes
themselves might easily establish line
Of steamers to carry off those who may
be longing for freedom IN new home.
They need not wait for government
aid in such an enterprise nor for the
investment Of any capital but their
own. They are numerous enough and
wealthy enough TO build few ships.

THE CUBAN DELEGATES.


The Cuban commissioners have fin-
lshed their business In this country.
and return practically without having
accomplished anything, except formed
acduaintanees that may be of future
benefit,
They we're appointed by the Cuban
constitutional convention TO confer with
President Mckinley about the proyis-
ions OF The Plat amendment. That
amendment demands the right Of this
country to interfere for the preserva-
ton Of order In the island; It also de-
mauds the cession of naval stations and
places certain restrictions upon the
right Of the Cubans to make treaties.
The Cubars objected to some Of these
demands and sent a delegation TO see
our government about the matter.
The result Of this conference seems
to be that the cubans must not expect
any mobilization in that amendment.
And n this Is the case, the Cubans can
do nothing better than accept the con-
dltlons there laid down. The Cubans
can hardly expect this country to re-
nounce is right to make suggestions as
TO the conditions under which an indie
pendent cuban government can be es-
tablshed. And as long as such condi-
lions only aim at the safeguarding OF
common and mutual interests, there
should be no serious ground for objec-
ton. cuba has for long time been
torn by Internal strife. Its commerce
has suffered, and life and property be-
came Insecure. Under a bad govern
ment, It's cities were the breeding
ground q disease, and by all these
means the interests OF the United States
suffered severely. The war was waged
for the purpose Of remedylng these con-
ditlons, II follows that any final ar
rangement Of Cuban affairs must nee
essarily provide against a recurrence
OF a similar state Of affairs. The Cubans
can hardly fail to see thatthis is as nee
essary as Il is just Notwithstanding
all objections that can be raised on sem
timenta grounds. Cuban freedom can
not be better secured than under the
protection OF the American flag.

TRAIN READY TO START

The presidential train now being al
ready for It's historical trip across the
continent. the people in the states II
win traverse. win be busy preparing
for the proper reception Of the dislln-
puished travellers, It need not be SAID
that wherever the train stops, large
crowds win turn out, and the welcome
viii be most enthusiastic.
There are many things eastern tray-
olers necessarily must learn on west
ern trip. one Of these is the vastness
Of this section Of country, about which
II is hard to realize that 1t alone has an
area. and a population, and resources
Of large empire. with room for many
millions more, An idea OF this Is best
formed on train that speeds on night
and day, through vast stretches Of
country, only at long intervals touch
ing at populous cities, thriving agri-
cultural settlements, prosperous towns
and villages
II Is only by intelligent, personal OBJ
setyation that a correct idea can be
formed Of the wonders wrought By
civilization IN this western country,
What the country was at the time the
first pioneers drove their stakes here,
is still In evidence wherever the soil
has been left to Itself What 1t can be
made by irrigation, thrift and indus.
try Is nowhere better illustrated than
In utah's now beautiful valleys. It is
a common observation by tourIsts that
one must travel through Utah In order
to realize how completely human indus.
try, with the blessings of Providence,
can change even a desolate country
into garden OF Eden.
The question Of redeeming the arid
West is before the nation. II will not
down. We hope the presidential party
win learn much about the practical i'm.
portance Of this subject on this trip to
the West.

Victory being out Of the question,
Aguinaldo was forced to choose death
or surrender. To die would have been
glorious, but uncomfortable, and Ia
tamely surrender would have been des-
tructive to the high character for
dauntless patriotism which Aguinaldo
has been building up for himself, Agui-
naldo's best way out Of the blind alley
In which he found himself was to be
captured. The last tabeau in his ca
reer was stage-managed with marvel
Gus skill The circumstantial evidence
in the case indicates that Agulnaldo's
alleged betrayer was In reality Agul-
naldo's agent. The whole transaction
with General Funston seems to have
been dictated by Agulnaldo's desire to
find an easy way out OF all his diff
culties.
