A SALOON DECISION.
Indiana Barroom Proprietors Re-
sponsible in Damages to In
nocent Sufferers.

Indiana. so far as we know, is the
frs state which has ever enacted a
Jaw making proprietors of saloons re-
6ponsibe in damages to innocent snf-
ferers from the effects of liquor sold
by them.
The Indiana supreme court in a re-
sent decision upholds this statute.
In the case upon which it's decision
was based one George Homire went
home drunk. abused one of his board
era Wiley and provoked a fight in
which he killed the man who resented
his insults.
Homire was tried, convicted OF man
slaughter and sent to the penitentiary
for twenty years.
It was proved that he had drunk
very heavily on the day of the homi-
eide aud that one bar had sold him
many drinks after he was already in
toxicated. The widow of the murdered
man brought suit against the owner of
that bar and fixed her damages at S20,-
600.
Counsel for the defendant entered a
demurrer that the new law did not APP
ply in such cases and the circuit court
sustained the demurrer. The plain
tiff's counsel appealed and the supreme
court overruled the demurrer, declar-
ing that the sale of the liquor caused
the intOXication and the intoxicatiOE
the killing and that, therefore, the
owner of the saloon where HOmire cot
his liquor is liable for the support of
the widow and children Of Homire' s
victim.
This is the first case of the kind on
record and has created quite a sensa-
tiOn.

A Significant Statement.

From the Savannah News
An Associated Press dispatch from
London contains statement that on
last Monday, at the annual meeting of
the great shipbuildine firm of Will
liam Doxford & Sons OF Sunderland H..
Sir William Theodore Doxford made
the statement that as long as the
heavy import duties on steel continue
10 the United States British shipbuild-
ers will be able to get American steel
for 50 to $40 per ton cheaper than the
price the same steel sells for in the
United States. La other words, Eng
lish Shipbuilders are able TO build
ships for less than they can be built
IN the United States because they can
buy steel from the steel mills of the
United States for less-very much less
than American shipbuilders can buy
it.

THE NEGRO CENSUS.
The Per Cent. of Increase is
Very Small.

Is is common to speak loosely OF the
10, O0O, 900 negroes of the United States
and probably few persons are aware
that this estimate is fully 1000, 600 too
large. 1t Is reported from Washing
ton that the negro population OF the
country, as determined in last year
census. will be found to be not quite
S,5OO,O 900. This number will no DOUBT
prove to be approximately correct, ana
if so it will show that the negro pop
ulation has increased in the past ten
years a little over l,000,00O or less than
IA per per cent. Accepting this esti-
mate, we have the following complete
census record covering 40 years:

ed, post haste, to the scene Of the

Continental oil company will be
brought up with a stout and quick

manner in which a large jobbing

the politician, who would wait a
week or two to see whether it was
expedient to send an oil inspector
to the western part Of the state, be-
cause it might be possible that he
would find something radically
short in the quality of the oil. Such
prompt and vigorous action is
making Governor Orman host OF
friends throughout the state. 1t is
to be hoped that he will make his
entire administration a business
one and not one Of expediency. the
latter of which is calculated to kill
the best intentioned administration

There are two republican band
wagons in the state at the present
time. The driver in one is Archie
Stevenson, Wolcott's lieutenant,
and the other is the independent
band wagon which proposes to
throw off the yoke of the federal pie
eaters. Local republican leaders
in Grand Junction belong to the
ring machine. They did not dare
attend the banquet given the re-
publican editors Of the state few
weeks ago at the Windsor hotel.
Perhaps when they discover that
Mr.. Wolcstt is not going to dis
tribute all the pie, they will try to
get under cover. Anyhow up to
the present the old leaders in Mesa
county are in power and they don't
dare to do anything in manner
