And When the Miikman Was Disabled,
1t Attended to Rueincss.
"The dairyman's horse learns few
things as he goes on his daily round, >
said a man who lives uptown, "and
had occasion to observe this fact re-
Gently. 1t came about in a very pa
thetic way. For many years l have
been patronizing one milkman and
for the past several years he has been
driving on old frame of horse. Ihe
animal was not very fast but he was
faithful. One day not long ago the
old millman was suddenly stricken
with paralysis while making his round.
AS just as he had completed 1t. At
any rate, he was in his wagon and
was SO violently afflicted that he could
not move. could not do anything for
himself
The horse seemed to understand
the situation, SO he pulled the wagon
home with his master in it. did not

the old fellow was sick or that some
thing had happened to him. In few
days strange milkman stopped in

asked if the old man-calling his
name-had been delivering milk at my
place. l told him that he had and in,
quirej what was the matter with the
old fellow. Then he told me the old
dairyman had been stricken with par
alysis and was in a desperate condi-
ton.

he said, half apologetically, having
your name, and l was not certain
about your place But, you see, this
old horse here has been our main re-
lance. He knows the route pretty
well, and when he stopped in front OF
your house l thought you must be one
of the old mans customers too. That
old horse is not very good looking,
but he has head full of sense" and
the new milkman walked away with
show of much pride. Horses are close

Where the feet Of the dear Ones must go;
OF the mountains OF sin hanging o er them,
OF the tempest OF Fate blowing wild;
Oh, there's nothing on earth half 50 holy,
As the innocent heart Of child
They are idols OF hearts and OF households;

SALOON MEN WILL
HAVE TO HURRY
Governor Puts New Inter-
pretatiOn on License
Law

If the belief expressed today by
Governor Ferguson is true all saloon
keepers engaged in business outside
Of Incorporated cities. towns and vii
lagos who failed to renew their liz
censes after March i6 1903 the day
Governor Ferguson approved the Mes
bitt liquor law. are without licenses,
and have been violating the law since
that time The Nesbitt law reads:
mo license shall be granted TO any
person to sell malt spirituous and
vinous liquors. or either of such
liquors. outside of nay incorporated
city. town or village, except by the
petition therefor Of the majority Of
the resident free holders Of the con
ressional township in which the bust
ness of selling such malt, spirituoGA
and vinous liquors, or either Of them,
is to be carried on. operated and con
Quoted Provided, that The lessees OF
school lands in such congressional
township are for the purposes Of this
nct declared to be free holders"
Governor Ferguson believes that all
such licenses expired March 16. and
that such saloons should be closed un-
til their owners secure licenses under
the new law. The question involves
possibly $50 saloons. If the law has
been violated a technical enforcement
of the liquor laws would prohibit the
persons from securing new licenses,
because Of the fact that "a license
shall not issue to any person who has
violated he liquor laws The assist
ant attorney general, Charles Woods,
disagrees with Governor Ferguson in
constituting the new law, not believing
that it is retroactive and furthermore,
that to require a renewal of licenses
prior to March 16 would destroy vest
ed rights bestowed by the original IL
cense.
IL is denied by others that a license
gives a saloonkeeper any vested
rights. and that a license oes no furth-
er than to grant permission to engage
in the sale of liquors under the police
power of tie state An attorney who
agreed at first with the position taken
by Assistant Attorney General Woods,
said later there was legal authority On
both sides of the case. The courts in
Maine and Missouri seemed to be op-
posed to Governor Ferguson's theory,
and in Iowa, Illinois and Indiana the
courts, in a measure, had sustained his
argument.
