Pendleton, May ?s6.-(Ddaor East
Oregonian. I'm response to your re-
quest for my views on the laws gov
erning the sale of liquor to Indians,
will say that Section 1859, OF Bellin-
ger and Cations Code, should be an
forced. This section provides that II
any person shall without the author
ity Of the UNITED states sell, barter
or give to any Indian or half-blood
who lives and associates with Indians,
such person upon conviction thereof
shall be punished by imprisonment in
the county jail for not less than two
months nor ,more than SIX months,
or by fine of mot more tthan. $500.
This statute makes no reference
whatever 10 whether such Indians are
allotees or not. II describes them as
Indians and in my Judgment, as a
police regulation, is clearly within
the constitution of this state.
The act of congress of February s,
ion OF the supreme court of the
United States provides that upon the
completion Of iallotments and the pat
enting OF the Hands to allotees, each
Indian so allotted shall have the bene-
fit of, and be subject to, the laws,
both civil and criminal, of the state in
which he resides, ana no state shall
pass or enforce any law denying such
Indian the equal prutection OF the
law.
This decision does mot touch the
state law on the subject and does not
render that statute obnoxious no the
state constitution.
The difference between a estate
constitution and the constitution of
I the United States is that the state
, constitution is a limitation of power.
while the constitution ,of the United
Estates is an act that confers power.
In other words, the state authorizes
gan do anything not prohibited by
constitution. while the United States
has no power except suoh as is cor
rferred by the constitution.
The Unated States exerused power
over Indians so long as they were
,wdthin the especial jurisdtction and
under the special control of the
limited States, but when by act OF
congress they were placed under the
control of the state, as by the statute
of February s. 1887, and made sub
sect to the civil and crirninal laws of
the state, the federal courts say that,
at least i'm misdeneanors, the indians,
thar,N NTH uintInr
win be samenable only to the state
law.
Legitimate Pdiice Regulation.
The state statutes prohibiting the
giving of liquor TO indians is a legit-
innate lpolioe regulation, just the same
as the statutes or ordinances that
prohibs the sale Of liquor to habitual
drunkantls even though they be cit
hzens, and enitled to note.
1t is within the poper exercises OF
nheir poIkoe powers 10 determine
classes to whom the sale ,or giving of
liquor viii endanger peace or good
order.
The Indian, SO far as the use of in
toxkcating liquor is concerned, is in a
class by himself, the same as our
minors and habftual drunksrds, or
those of weak or unsound mind. 1t
Is not necessary for me to suggest the
reason of the difference, but he is so
nearly the primitive man that the in
toxicants have an attraction for him

Napoleon had q wonderful memory.

Roman law and was asked how he had
obtained It. He stated that when a
lieutenant he had once been placed IN

weeks. During that time the only book
ut his command was a treatise on Ho-
man law. He sat down and in two
weeks mastered the volume so COM
pletely that twenty years later he could

usInE Endearing Terms.

Did you ever notice-but Of course
you dld-what q difference there Is in
men in the matter Of using ~endearlng
terms? 1t Is just as natural for some
men to say Eyes, dear" or "No, sweet
heart" as it is for somebody's pet ter
rier to chase the family cat up u tree.
OF course, it doesn't always mean any
thing in particular. That Is to say, IL
a man calls n girl dear" or little one"
after he has been paying her distinct
attention" for awhile, it doesn't neces-
sarily mean that he's going to propose.
If certain women would get that
through their heads there would be
fewer broken hearts. Actions. not
words, gauge sincerity, and a man may
string the conversation full Of pet
names and not have any deeper nfTec-
ton than the man who doesn't call his
wife dear" It is only a habit, but It
is such a pretty one and it IS so easy
a way of making n woman happy that
it is really too bad more men do not
cultivate it.-Woman Correspondent In

THE LAW OF FINDING.


Against All Save the Owner the Find-
cr's Title II Perfect.
In common law finding Is u qualified
source Of title to goods and chattels.
Briefly, the law Is that the finder has a
clear title against all the world, except
ing the owner. The proprietor Of a
coach or a railroad car or a ship has no
right to demand property found on his
premises. Such proprietors may make,
in regard to lost articles, regulations
which will bind their employees, but
they cannot bind the public.
The law OF finding was declared by
the kings bench more han q hundred
years ago (when 1t was the supreme
court of common law In England as
follows:
A person found a wallet containing a
sun of money on a shop floor. lie
handed the wallet and contents to the
%shopkeeper to be returned TO the own
er. After three years, during which
the owner did not call for his property,
the finder demanded OF the s%hopkceper
the wallet and the money. The latter
refused to deliver them upon the
ground that they were found on his
premises. The finder then sued the
~shopkeeper, and 1t was held, as stated
above, that. against all the world save
the owner the title Of the finder is per-
feet. The finder has indeed been held
to stand in the place of the owner.
Thus a prevailed In an action against
3. who found an article which a had
originally found, but subsequently lost.
The police have no especial rights in
regard to articles lost unless these
rights are conferred by statute. Receiv-
ers Of articles found are trustees for
the owner or finder. In the absence Of
special statute they have no power to
keep an article against the finder any
more than n finder has to retain an ar
ticle against the owner.
A finder must, however, use every
reasonable means to discover the own
er of found goods before appropriate
ing them to his own use. 1t has been
declared that If the finder knows the
owner or knows that he can discover
him he is guilty Of larceny in keeping
or appropriNting to himself the artl-
cles found.

The OLD SAILING SHIPS.
Why the Wooden Ones Were Better
Than Those Built of Iron.

Why the Wooden Ones Were Better
Than Those Built of Iron.
The sailing ship when l knew her in
the days of her perfection was a sensi-
BILE creature. When l say her days Of
perfection 1 mean perfection Of build,
gear. seaworthy qualities and ease Of
handling, not the perfection of speed.
That quality reached its highest ex-
cellence in the discovery of hollow
lines and departed with the change Of
building material.
None Of the iron ships Of yesterday
ever attained the marvels Of speed
which the seamanship OF men famous
in their time had obtained from their
wooden, copper sheeted predecessors.
Everything had been done to make
the iron ship perfect, but no wit Of
man had managed to devise On efficient
coating composition to keep her bot
tom clean with the smooth cleanness
of yellow metal sheeting. After q
spell Of n few weeks at sea an iron
ship begins to lag as If she had grown
tired too soon. 1t is only her bottom
that is getting foul.
A very little affects the speed of a
ship that is not driven ON by an untir-
ing propeller. Often it is impossible to
tell what inconsiderate trlhe puts her
off her stride. a certain mysterious
ness hangs around the quality of speed
as it was displayed by the old sailing
ships commanded by competent sea
men. In those days the speed was
still a matter for the seaman's care.
Therefore, apart from the laws, rules
and regulations for the good preserya-
tlon of his cargo, he was careful OF his
loading. of what is technically called
the trim of his ship. Some ships sailed
best ON an even keel, others had to be
trimmed quite n foot by the stern,
and 1 have heard Of u ship that gave
her best speed OH a wind when SO
loaded as to float a couple Of inches
by the head.-Joseph Conrad in Har,
per's Weekly.
