John wiese. a farmer near Willard. is
:rying to make four saloon keepers OF thai

Herman S~tockman. Chris Koch and John
Seamon and became greatly intoxicated. q"
He ASSERTS that the saloon men continued
to sell him liquor after he had become
Intoxicated, so that when he started for
home In the cold night, he was unable to
protect himself against the elements. After
travelling about one-fourth Of a mile he
fell down and ION account OF his debauched
and imbecile condition caused by liquor
was unable to rise. He remained there
during the remainder OF the night on the
snow-covered ground and the exposure
made necessary the amputation Of all
fingers on both hands and part OF the
thumb on the left hand. Previous to the
incident he was a robust man Of 4s years.
Wiese sues the four saloon proprietors
and their several bondsmen for $1,000, de-

tory upon them to prepare plans and esti-
mates for all important work and to in

proven that there was an error there is
nothing to prove 1t was not an honest
error.
The present law provides that all con-
tracts amounting to more than 800 must
be advertised and let on a competitive basis
to the lowest bidder. This goes a long way
TO prevent steals. Had II. r. liz as origin
