Saloon Not Outlawed Says Supreme
Court.


The Supreme Court reversed the
decision Tuesday. in the "Sopher
case in which Judge Ira Christian
of Noblesville held that all the liquor
laws of Indiana were unconstitutional
and that saloon was a nuisance per
Sc
After reciting the charge that So
pher kept place for the sale OK in
toxicating liquors at retail, without
stating that it was disorderly or
otherwise improperly conduct. ID, and
that the court excluded all evidence
tending to show that Sopher's saloon
was operated under a county license,
Judge Jordan said, in deciding the
case, that the position Of the state
was wholly indefensible He went
back 20 the common law and showed
that as early as 1885 the English par
Lament had undertaken to license
and control the liquor traffic.
Coming down to Indiana he show
ed that as early as 1907 a territorial
law was passed for the licensing OF
taverns and dramshops, and that this
practice was continued under the first
constitution and also under rhe sec
ond.
while the overthrow of the statute
of 1875" the decision continues, and
the laws supplemental thereto, such
as the Nicholson law, the Moore law,
etc, on the peculiar and untenable
doctrine advanced by counsel for the
state would no doubt be very gratiiv-
ing to the latter and to those who
concur in their peculiar views, never
the1ess it is monifest that such a re-
suit would not conduce to the inter
est or furherance of the cause of tenn
perance, for, as affirmed in Haggari
store all persons to their unrestricted
rights under the common law to retail
Intoxicating liquors and all who de-
Sire to engage in the traffic could dc

in other words, absolutely unrestrict-
ed, save and except as they might be
prohibited by some statute relation
to sales to minors, habitual drunkards
persons in a state of intoxication, OF
to certain days or times upon which
the sale of liquor is forbidden, anC
under the circumstances dramshop:
or saloons would be multiplied ir
every hamlet and village throughout
the state.
while all citizens of this state
have perfect right to cry out or de
clare upon the hustings or before the
legislature or other assembled bodie:
that the liquor traffic. cannot be. le
galized without committing a sin, and
while their arguments might be suffi
GENTLY potent to persuade or induce
the legislature absolutely to prohibi
the traffic. they could be of no avail
before a court which can neithe
make nor unmake laws
I'm conclusion, we hold that tn,
statute of 1875 is not open under thu
constitution, to the objections urget
aaginst it by counsel for the appellee
and we, therefore, affirm it, validity
We conclude that the affidavit in thi
case does not charge public offense
and that the lower court erred, first
in overrul;ng appellants motion t.

LEPER'S DEATH
NOT BY POISON
STATE PROBES THE CASE AND
FINDS CHARGE UNTRUE
THAT HE WAS Pois-

George Rashid. the Syrian feper, did
not die of poison, or from any but
natural causes. according to the on,
cial report Of his death made by AT.
torney General May. after an inyesti.
CATION. TO Governor Dawson, who an.
nonnced at the time of Rashid's death
that he would have the probe inserted,
No sworn testimony was taken but
the attorney general inquired into the
facts and drew from the circumstances
that Rashid died of disease and that
violence had no part in the antimely
end OF his career. His report follows:
Some time in the month OF July,
1906. a Syrian named George Rashid,
who had resided for a time thereto
fore at the city of Elkins. was found
in the State of Maryland with a fully
developed Ease Of leprosy. The health
authorities of that State, finding that
he had only recently come into Mary
land from this State. loaded him on a
box car OF the Baltimore & Ohio rail-.
road, and that railroad carried him
to the city of Parkersburg. He was
there stopped, as the Ohio authori.
Ties refused TO permit him to be
brought into their State.
The State Board Of Health of West
Virginia, being notified Of the case,
through DR.. Fl. A. Barbee, its secre.
tary, took charge of the matter; and
after considerable difficulty and quite
an amount of excitement among the
people. he vas finally carried by the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad back to the
town OF PicSens. in Randolph county,
and there cared for until the time OF
his death, which occurred about the
first OF November, 1906.
DR.. Barbee, when the ase came to
his attention. asked this office for In
structions. and on investigation /
found that we had no law covering a
case OF this kind. Hence, the officials
of the State yer very much hamper
cd and embarrassed in Carrying for
this unfortunate man.
After his death there was some dis
cussion in the press of the state that
he had met an nntimely death. as the
result of some ones criminal design.
But so far as ! have been able to as.
certain. | think this rumor unbound
ed. But one thing is demonstrated
clearly ant that is that there is leg.
i~sfation needed on the subject of con,
tagious and infectious diseases in our
State; and the power of the Board of
Health should be extended so that
they can control torubles OF this kind.
In fact. all along. in the discharge OF
the duties of this office, 1 can discoy.
er where the Board of Health OF this
state should have more power, and by
giving 1T more power the health and
comfort Of the people can be very ma.
~terially improved.
