Popular Rector RESIGNS.

Rev. H. NJ. Bartlett has rendered his
resignation as rector of the Episcopal
church in this city, on account of failing
health. Mr. Bartlett has been in charge
of the church for number of years, and
his many warm friends will sincerely
regret his determination to resign MS
charge. He has no settled plans for the
immediate future but an affection of the
eyes will enforce his taking rest for
at least year.

The New Road Law.

The attorney general, in response to
numerous requests for an official opin-
ion regarding several points on the
public road law passed by the last leg
islature, has authorized the following:
The section that has given county
commissioners the most trouble, it is
thought, is section 8, page 224, of the
session laws, which provides for a levy
of tax for road and bridge fund to
be expended on the roads and bridges
in which all the inhabitants of the
county are Interested
The attorney general holds that the
board is vested with wide discretionary
powers in determining what bridges
and roads may receive the benefit of
this fund, and that the courts will not
interfere except in clear case of the
abuse of this discretion, if at all.
The attorney general also holds the
commissioners have no power to APP
point a general superintendent of the
roads" and confer upon him functions
imposed by the law upon the county
surveyor. This was attempted in Gar
field county.
He also holds that the new law does
not give the county commissioners the
power to fix the compensation of the
county surveyor, this being still con-
trolled by section 1890, volume l,Bal-
fingers code. The opinion is express
ed that the section requiring road SUI

The Indian is particularly suscepti-
bic to alcohol. A small quantity of it
tnat the average white man could take
without apparent effect will make the
red man bowling drunk. This fact
was early discovered by the Hudson's
Bay company, which sold rum sparing-
ly to the savages of this country, and
then diluted with nine parts of water
to one part of rum. Well attested
cases are reported of Indians getting
noisily drunk by smelling recently
emptied liquor flask.
1t is this phase of the evil that fos-
tiers the illicit business of selling liquor
to Indians. orthless and irresponsi-
be white men can buy flask of whis-
ky dilute it several times over and ped
die it to Indians at big profit ;and al
ways the traffic is in cheap and vile
grade of liquor.
The Indian problem is largely the H.
quor problem. If the red man could
he entirely deprived of alcohol the task
of lifting him to a plane of industry
and civilization would be tremendous
