YOU MAY DODGE Today Behind a Pile of Boxes Or Other Blind AND TAKE YOUR DRINK. An Indiana Decision Causes a Renewal of That Style. The elbow benders mny dodge behind a screen now. At least there is one bur room in Rome that has a screen, or a “makeshift,” and it is presumable that the example will be followed. It will be remembered that a week or two age ue rly all of the saloon* ban piles of boxes in the front of their stores that served as a perfect screen against any who desired to peep in, and gazr on ihose who were imbibing. It will also be remember* d that Rev. Mr. Duvall preached ou tne subj - t at the S eo. d M’-thodut church, aud th it afewd.ys afterward the screens disappeared. Ye.sterd.ry a I niBUNE reporter noticed that Briant & Vandiver had a lot of eases in tho trout portion—even a larger pile than before, and one of the employes was hard at work,adding to it. •‘How about ihu?” was asksd Mr. Briant. ‘ 1 «Veli,” said he, “As I have always held, the city has no right to legislate ou this subject. The supreme court of In diana has just decided in a similar case, and holds that it is not only uucuusti cutiona to prevent us from displaying our goods in this way, but that we may use screens, blinds or painted glass in spite of the city ordinance.” “What are you going to do?” he was asked, “fight if a case is made?” “Yes, sir, and win it. Os course it is unconstitutional.” None of the other saloons seem to have caught on as no other screens have ap peared. The decision referred to appeared only a few days ago, and a copy of it was secured when heard of. The Tribune man asked for the copy, but was told that it was in the hands of City Attorney Denny. THAT CONVENTION Os Stock Raisers Will Occur at an Early Date. The horse men of the city are greatly inteiested in thb proposed stock raisers’ convention.
