One Man Adjudged Gully Of
Sabbath Violation.
lie Was Fined aud Took nm Appeal
Saloon Men May Test New
Ordinance. t
TALK OF AN INJUNCTION

Mr.. l.. A. Lagomarslno. proprie-
tor of Lagomarsno hotel and bar.
was this morning adjudged guilty Of
selling or allowing to be sold last
Sunday, liquor at his bar at Second
and Broadway. and was fined s25
and costs. and is apparently going
to be made an example of. He took
IN appeal, but Mayor Yeiser stated
that he would as soon as the nee
essary papers can be drawn up. re-
woke Mr.. Lagomarsino's license, the
appeal Notwithstanding, as Mr.. La
somarsino stands convicted so far
20 the city is concerned.
The case was the first called in
police court this morning and only
.wo witnesses were heard One stat
: that he bought bottle of beer. in
The saloon Sunday morning and an
Jther stated he got a drink over the
bar on Sunday but couldn't remem-
Der who gave it to him, claiming he
lid not buy it. This is The first con
yiction since Mayor Yeiser's an
ncuncement that he would revoke
4. saloon license upon conviction in
police court for Sabbath violation.
Mayor Yeiser stated to reporter
this morning that he would go to the
city solicitor and have the proper
papers drawn up revolving the Ii
cense today or tomorrow, notwith-
standing the appeal.
Mr.. Lagomarsino was under the
impression that an appeal would
prevent action by t..e mayor until
the appeal was finally decided, and
was much surprised to learn that
the mayor contemplated immediate
action.
The revocation of a license will
likely precipitate a legal contest be-
tween the saloon keepers and the ad-
nrnistration. It is likely, from talk,
that an injunction will be taken out
TO prev MT the revocation of saloon
licenses, possibly in this particular
case.
Until this year the license ordi-
nance gave the council the sole right
to revoke a saloon license. but the
ordinance was changed so as to place
the responsibility on the mayor. 1t Is
claimed by many that this is uncon-
stitutional, and that the mayor can
exercise no such right, an ordinance
comforting it, to the contrary not
withstanding.
There is another saloon case to
come up soon. IL is against j. T.
Quarles, of the South Side. The
license was issued to Bud Quarles
and the warrant issued against j.
T. Quarles, and the necessary change
has resulted in delay.
ID is likely however, that the may
or will find considerable trouble on
his hands before he succeeds In re-
voking the license Attorneys say that
even If the mayor has authority to
revoke a license upon conviction for
Sunday violation, there has been no
conviction in this case, and cannot be
until circuit court has settled the
appeal, and IL an appeal should then
be taken TO the appellate court, not
until the appellate court has decided
the case. II this is the case, the ap-
peal will hang up the case for many

The railroad, by all the laws of the nations, is quite as much a high way as is wagon road. But instead of levying direct taxes for keeping up the rail-highways as do the peo- pie of Prussia, Austria, Switzerland and other oountries) we Americans farm out" the power of taxation to private individuals organized as a railroad corporation. The old kings farmed out the power of ordinary tax ation to their favorite barons in the same way. The instrument that con- veys this power upon railrad com- pany is a "charter. It gives the railroad company the right to operate the rail-highways and to charge a freight-rate a tax for doing it. Railroad presidents and directors are thus by appointment made the tax collecting representatives of the peo- pie. Few railroads are not now and never were, private property, like 8 farm or a grocery store. They are highways. - From "Railroad De. bates," by Ray Stannard Baker in the December McClure's.

Real Mean of Bill.

''I wouldn't have thought it of him, sir," said the old sailor-"him that had sailed shipmates with me for years. His name it were Bill Withers, and we got away from wreck in the Indian ocean together in one of the quarter boats. There came a day when the water and food gave out, and I says to Bill, says I:
 Bill, we can go about three days on nothing, and then shall have to eat you
 ".All right, old ship says he, and there was nothing more to be said about it. Four days passed, and then I says to Bill:
 "'Stand up and see if there's a sail in sight
 Nary a sail,' says he, after looking around.
 Then I've got to eat you.'
 "'All right, old ship, but let me tell you that I have just taken a big dose of poison, and if you eat me you won't be long arter me-"
 And was it so?" was asked of Bills friend.
 '1t was so, sir, and what does Bill do but swell up and die and fall over- board and leave me to go on suffering for four days more before bark sight ed and picked me up. Would you have believed there was as mean a man in all this world T-Detroit Tribune

in the mountains of Kentucky. This
justice of the peace was also a black
smith. He came into court from his
smithy, and, retaining his leather apron,
mounted the bench with all possible
solemnity of manner. The worthy man
was very officious in his manner, try
ing hard to initiate the legal dignitaries
he had seen in the surrounding districts.
1t was plainly to be seen, says Mr.. Car
Isle. that the good man had determined
that in the presence of a "city'' lawyer
from Louisville it behooved him, the
justice, to assume a judicial air that
would be doubly impressive. The case
under trial was that in which suit was
brought for the payment of feed fur
nished certain horses. Mr.. Carlisle rep
resented the defendant, and the defense
made was that the bill had been paid.
When argument had been had the JUS
tice delivered himself of the following:
1.-THE court is very familiar with this
case The court has listened to what
the witnesses have got to say and the
talk of the lawyers. The court will
not decide this case just now. Tt re-
serves its opinion. The case goes I'M
der advisement for three days, and the
court will then decide the case in favor
of the plaintiff. ''-Collier's Weekly.
