Two interesting cases were decided by Judge Thomas this week, growing out of the $500 ordinance passid by the City Council last Summer. Previous to the passage of that ordinance J. N.Porter, and Driskell Johnson, saloon keeprrs whose city licenses had not yet expired, paid the City Treasurer $50 each under the old ordinance to have their licenses renewed for a year. The Treasurer took the money and gave them receipts for the same, which they presented to the May" or in the usual way and asked for licenses for one year. Mayor Coons, thinking their design was to evade the provisions of the $500 ordinance then before the Council, refused to issue the licenses.

The new ordinance has since passed and gone intoellect, ai.d Porter and Driskell it Johnson applied to Judge Thomas for a mandate to compel the Mayor to issue the licenses. The ca.-e was'decided in favor of the plaint ill's.
