The supreme court has again held that a

Of intoxicating liquors. The decision is
in the case Of Carey against Kelly, APP
pealed from Dodge county. In the trial
court a Judgment was given against Carey
for $500 and this judgment is affirmed by
the higher tribunal. In giving the decision
the supreme court passes upon several i'm

In the case Of Moore against the state.
appealed from Custer county, the supreme
court passes as follows upon questions
involving or arising from the sale of liquor
on general election days: ITO Justify a
conviction under Section IA, Chapter so,
compiled statutes OF 1901, Il must appear
that the defendant. either by himself or
bis employe, sold or gave away intoxicating
liquors on the day Of a general or special
election. or on the FIRST day OF the week,
commonly called Sunday. Such a sale by a
servant without the express or implied
authority of his master is not a sale by
the master within the meaning Of said
section. Whether instructions by a master
to his servant not to sell or give away
intoxicating drinks on Sunday, or on an
election day, we're colorado only, or were
given in good faith in the expectation of
that they would be obeyed and with the
Intention that they should operate as a

therein. and is not notice to such owner
