ROn Wednesday of last week the, Supreme Court refused a re-hearing of the Stehlin case, and thus establishes as a principle of law in this state, the former decision. In effect, it is that owners of property near which saloons are located, can recover dam ages if their property is deteriorated in value by the proximity of the saloon. It is a decision which the saloon owners expect will work them any amount of tribulation, and from which temperance people expect great results.
