Of Barn He Formerly Leased

owned by the Rice Lumber company.
The land in which the barn stood was
bought by Mr. Gaulin last May and Mr..
Huh remained a tenant until the follow
ing November paying $40 month rent.
There were no stalls In the barn, Mr. Hull
claimed, when he hired II and he put in
the stalls with the privilege to take them
out at any time. Mr. Gsulin claimed that
HUI had no right to take the stalls out
and sued for the value OF the same and
the injury TO the barn resulting from re-
moving them.
Judge Douglas held the plaintiff dld not
prove the stalls werc part OF the realty
ana gave decision for the defendant for

Nov. what do you think OF such logic?

This is simply one illustration of how

be difficult for people to draw their own
conclusions.
"In my opinion. the police would do

the places that are generally known TO
be improper and they would not find IL
very hard work 10 do so. If they really
meant business"

the general belief is that IL Will not be

At the last session OF the general as
sembly an act was passed repeating an
act passed a year ago exempting from
attachment wages TO the amount OF $40.
That act was made law for tho relief
OF wage-workers. and upon the claim
that their pay was eaten up by the tax
ing of exorbitant costs.
Subsequently retail merchants asked
that that act be repealed, for the reason
that If they gave credit in small
amounts-under SiO-they were unable to
force debtors TO made settlements.
When the law was again amended, and

prophesied that there would be a general

Just why some OF these places are
granted tavern licenses is somewhat of q
mystery TO those who do not know some
OF the peculiar things that happen I'm
Providence. They do not serve meals
and do not even make a pretense OF fur
nishing lodgings.
Why victualling house license would
not properly hit their case is also one
OF the things that set some people think
ing A victualling house license allows
food 20 be served az, all reasonable hours
through the week, at certain hours on
Sunday, hut A does not give the priNil-
ege OF keeping open all night.

taurants," said a city official today
They certainly do not require "A tavern
license. but they ask for II. and
get IL. and should like To
know why simply. perhaps be-
cause they want 10 keep open until all
hours of the night and also on sundays.
There are many persons who arc cog
itating over this tavern license business.

things.
