Special to Tho Journal.

Special to The Journal
Saut Ste Marie, Mich, Sept, 1S.--Has q
saloon keeper right to sell liquor to Indian,
or persons Of dInian descent? The laws of
Michigan say not. In this connection an inter-
esting suit was recently started against Ed,
mund Berube, a liquor seller here, by Charles
Boucher, a halfbreed, who charged q violation
of that law. " -
+ Boucher, short time "ago. started crusade
against saloons and proposed to see the Indian
law enforced. For the purpose OF securing evi-i
dence he bought liquor Of Berude and started a
suit for a test case. tI1x-A Attorney General
O'Brien, who had the case for the defense, held
the law to be unconstitutional inasmuch as IT.
dlscrimtnates against one class of citizens. 81 "
In his charge to the jury Judge Steere held
the law valid, but charged the jury that in order
to prove violation 1t would have to be shown
that the defendant had knowledge that the
plaintiff was an Indian or Of that descent. There
are many people having Indian blood here and the
case has aroused great interest. ~
1t is likely another will be brought for tho
purpose Of testing the constitutionality Of the
law, which, it is said, has been passed
upon by the supreme court. fai. r. iti5&

INSISTS ON THE FINE.
Chancellor Leatherman Rescinds the Jail Sentence Imposed Upon Col. Davies For Refecting Upon
 Honesty of Court.

Hot Springs, Ark, April 15.-Chan- cellor Leland Leatherman yesterday rescinded the jail sentence recently imposed upon Col. R. G. Davies, a prominent attorney of this city, for contempt of court, but the chancellor refused to release Col. Davies from the payment of the $50 fine, although petitioned by all the prominent local attorneys to do so. The petition was without the knowledge of the attorney and was surprise to him. In modi- flying his recent ruling the chancellor stated that while he regarded the of fense serious ill the extreme, he would rescind the jail sentence, but insist upon the payment of the fine. Col. Davies will now have to pay the $50 or go to jail.

MOUNTAIN SHOPS
 ESCAPE DESTRUCTION.

At about 7:30 o'clock Tuesday night the engineer of the stationary plant at the Iron Mountain shops in North Little Rock blew the big steam whistle calling attention to a fire that had started in the frame building, used as car repair shop. In five minutes the entire building was a mass of flames, with no hope in the world of saving it.
 Every engine in the surrounding yards and round house, that had steam up, took up the alarm of fire, it was we'll they did, as it spurred the shop employees to quick action. They gave good account of themselves and much credit is due them for the confining of the flames to the build ing that it started in.
 The total loss will almost reach $25,- 900, $20, 1000 to the railroad company and $5,000 to the s.-Capital City News.

NEWPORT TO HAVE
 A NATIONAL BANK.
Stockholders of Jackson County Bank Decide to Make that Institution a
 Bank of Issue.

The general confidence in the future of Newport as the leading city of Northern Arkansas could hardly be more enthusiastically manifested than in the number of new enterprises that have been organized and the strength ening and entrenching of old institu- tions to better meet the demands of a future that promises increased busi- ness.
 Such an evidence of faith in the city's future is found in the action of the stockholders of the Jackson Coun- ty Bank, when at meeting held Wednesday evening, it was voted to make that institution national bank.
 With paid up capital stock of $5O,- 900, for the law governing national banks requires that the whole capital stock be paid up, the First National Bank of Newport will within the next two or three weeks succeed the Jack son County Bank.
 The new institution will be strictly under the direction of the Comp troller of Currency at Washington and will issue it's own notes. The of ficers will remain the same and the change will be distinction without a difference in so far as the manage ment of the institution is concerned.
