bottles were not TO bear the names OF

II il be true that Germany is trying
to force from this government some

trine, it is perhaps nO more than might
be expected in the course of human
events. We are all for our govern

nations, and perhaps OF entirely with.

idea that we feel obi gated to succor

be done 10 dissbuse the minds Of other
nations on this score. The Monroe
doctrine may have bG en- all right in
the time of its enuncia' ion, and it may
be all right today, and is right in the
opinion of most patri otto American
citizens, yet it does not mean that this

II is said that Caesar chose his gen.

to President Roosevelt in his speech

Two Warrants for Violating the Sa-
loon Ordinance.
Legal Talent in Abundance Employed
to Fight the Respective
Sides.
FIRST ORDINANCE UNSIGNED

The test OF the saloon oruinance
came quickly. This afternoon il is
to be argued before Judge Sanders, in
the police court. While the ordinance
was effective from the time the mayor
signed it, no effort was made TO en-
force it until last night, and this morn.
ing two warrants were issued, one
against Mr.. James MnNulty, Of North
Fourth ard the other against Mr..
Charles Graham, at Ninth and Court,
or remaining open later than 1880
o'clock.
The cases were called in Judge San
ders' court this morning and set for 2
O'Clock this afternoon. They will be
prosecuted by Attorney Jesse Gilbert,
for the city, and by Reed and Berry,
who have been employed to assist.
The defense will be represented by
Moss, Lightfoot and Flournoy and
Harrison. There will no doubt be sew
eral reasons offered why the ordinance
is invalid. One is that the time for
closing the saloon is one thing, 1880
in the title, and another, 1880. in the
ordinance proper.
The attorneys will also offer much
law in support Of their respective
sides. The attorneys for the defense
claim that they have found a law
which will knock IL out. while the 9th.
er side claim that the new ordinance
comes under the head of police regu-
lations, and is constitutional.
In regard to the discrepancy in the
President Reed, of the coun-
oil, this morning made an investigs-
ton, aud learned the true status Of the
case. The original ordinance has new
err been signed, and contains the cor
rect figures. That in the title was
1880, the same as in the
body OF she ordinance, but when il was
amended the change was made by
making the sc" around the ~" and
the 30" has now become so dim that
it can hardly be seen, making II appear
II 80 instead of 1890.
This ordinance after final passage
was copied, and the stenographer mis-
took the corrected figures for ll;3O,
and so copied them. The mistake
was nos noticed by Alderman Greif,
If the enrollment committee, when he
vent over il and certified 20 10 as
correct, and it was handed 20 the speak
u Of the council, the president Of the
aldermen and the mayor the same way
md each signed it without noticing
he mistake. The original ordinance,
however, the one read and passed in
ZACH board,is not the one that has been
ngned. The one that wss signed iss
,opy, which further oomplicates the
,ase. Some claim that the defect
,ould be reIDedied by the three offioi-
lis, or the mayor alone signing the
original ordinance and throwing the
,opy away.

A strong effort is to be made, appar-
emily, to run former President Cleve-
land for the Democratic nomination
for president, and he is regarded as the
only Moses that stsrds any chance az
all, slim as il is. of leading the be-
nighted children of Democracy into
the promised land. There is deep
rooted prejudice among certain classes
against q third term. and doubtless
many arguments can be sdduced for
and against it, but 1t has been q long
time since George Washington set the
pace, and things have changed con.
sidsrably since then. 1t is not at all
improbable that Cleveland will eventu-
ally be boosted into the ring and
made to fight for the empty hClor
of representing Democracy in the
next national campaign.

Louisville seems very much stirred
up over the incontestibility Of GER
tain insurance policies on the life Of
a citizen recently found dead. In
regard to the suicide clause of in
surance policies, the courts have vir-
tually decided in this state, as well
as many others, that the clause Is of
no force IL the deceased was mental
ly unbalanced, and most juries are
soon convinced that man must be
deraDged before he will take his life.
Few policies are knocked out on the
suicide clause these days. Insurance
companies seem to be regarded by
the average jury something as rail.
roads. They ought to pay all claims
simply because they nave the money.
