56TH YEAR.- NO 31.
HUTTON VS. COMMISSIONERS
A Good Big Fat Law Suit in Pros-1
-•'.fix
pect for the County.
Ever since retiring from the office of county treasurer, Mr. John C. Iluttos claimed that the county was indebted to him in the sum of $3,500, and hag occasionally sought a settlement of the claim, but without success. Some months since on the order of the Commissioners, Frank Maxwell and John Bonnell made ai investigation involving some days of work, and through it they claim that the indebtedness is on the other side and that Button is indebted to the county in the sum of $10,000. Mr. Hutton is now doing the investigating, and this week James Watson and Ben Warbinton are going over the books and carefully noting any discrepenoies or errors that may have arisen in past settlements. Just how the matter may bo eventually settled it is difficult to predict, but not until some considerable' litigation las been indulged in probably by both sides.

Anti-Quart Law.
Both houses passed the anti-quact-shop law. It is important legislation. "-j
persons can*
Hereafter two classes of sell liquor. ,,. Tbe retailer who sells1 by the drink after procuring his license and the individual who sells in five gallon lots.
Everybody mu6t have a license, and" has to advertise therefor. Drug stores cannot Bell drinks.
Bawdy houses cannot sell, except under a regular license Bottlers cannot sell, except under a license, or in five gallon lots.
The law will revolutionise the business in localities. The country districts will remonstrate as unual.
The commissioners will obey the de. sires of the majority. There will be no quart shop law to fall back on, as now, for the applicant will Btill have to obtain a license even to sell in five gallon lots.
He must pay $100 for the permit. This money goes as an entirety into the county school fund it is not divided with other counties.
The expectation is the law will confine the sale of liquor to the retail licenses shops. It stops bottle selling at road houses and bawdy houses, and to that extent will prove a protection to the men who have for years been pay* ing a good round sum for a license to do that which their neighbors did under the quart law without bearing any of the burdens imposed on the lawcomplying man.
The ratail men favor tbe law.
George Harney, of Ladoga, will open a law office in this city. The jury for the remaining term 6t Uircuit Court was empanneled on Tuesday.
At his home south-weEt of town on Monday, Joseph Tinsley, aged 79 years, died.
The business streets have been undergoing a much needed cleaning this week.
The prospective heir to the vast Laverty estate in Parke county, which has caused so much anxiety among heirs and their lawyers, was born March 4. The will which the land prince executed in the heat of passion is broken without litigation.
Three individuals of Linden, guilty of violating some of the provisions of the Nicholson temperance law, have been in jail this week, one of them,. John Lyons, having been brought down from Lafayette last Friday by Officer Bannister.
Two Crawfordsville fellows, Vanhook acd Maxwell, anxious to see the coming prize fight between Corbett and Fitzsimmons, at Carbon, Nevada, next Wednesday, left for that place a few days ago t»y way of Chicago- Tbe highest price for the best seats at tbe contest is 840, the lowest $5, and cost of the trip $100.
