ALL ABOUT THE BLUFFS ,
Another Move to Make Saloons Pay License
Co Long as They Run.

BltiRt I'ny License.
Although there are seventy-live saloons
running in the city , holes in Iho wall , be
sides the well apnointcd bars , the city is
getting no revenue from them , or has
not been of la to. There are numerous
gambling houses and houses of prostitu
tion , but these have not of late been pay
ing the usual revenue toward paying the
expenses of the city. The mayor has
ovldontlyconcludod that if these places
are being allowed to do business , they
should uay something into Iho city
treasury. The police have of late been
notifying the keepers of such places that
they must pay or bo closed up. There is
no tolling when the saloons now running
will be closed , but so long as they do run
they must pay , under the "pop" ordi
nance , the license being $25 a month.
In response to the notification a number
of them have paid their license. It is un
derstood that a move will bo made by the
city to close those who do not pay , An
attempt is being made to force the gam
bling houses to pay. There is a kick
from them. They say that if the saloons
are closed their business is affected and
they cannot afford to pay as of old. They
object to paying- also on the ground that
others who ilo a like business arc not
compelled to pay. They claim that it is
just as much gambling to s-oll French
pools and deal in combinations on base
ball as to play faro. If Mich arc not
called on to pay $50 or ifGO a month , then
all should bo allowed to go free too.
There is also a little trouble in forcing
paymdnt , on account of the position
taken by Judge Aylesworth. It is under
stood that he does not think the city has
the right to collect the fines or penalties
from the gamblers under a city ordi
nance , so 'long as then ; is a .state law
which fixes the penalty for such oliensos.
The old way of procedure was for gam
blers to put up money for their appear
ance at some future date , and this money
was forfeited and \vent into the city treas
ury without any trial , and with no record
made against the defendants. It is un
derstood that Judge Aylesworth will not
bo u party any longer to this mode of
securing a revenue. On the other hand
it is claimed that tiio chief cause
cause of this charge in the judi
cial proceedings , is because the city in
sists on paying the judge in warrants
instead ot cash. Ho lias it in
his power to increase or dimin
ish the cash receipts of the city tea
a great extent , and it seems that he'does
not propose , under the circumstances ,
helping the city to increase its cash rev
enues by countenancing any such pro-
ce > sos as have boon heretofore in vogue.
Sonic interesting questions will proba
bly arise before these matters arc settled.
The city is limited in its power to levy a
general fund tax , and the need of raising
revenues from sources whieli cause addi
tional expense to the city , seems urgent
to the mayor and council. The date is
drawing near when it is to bo "put up or
shut up , " and if the city determines to
close such places as do pay the required
license , the move will bo even quicker
than that of private persons united in a
prohibition club. With the prohibition
ists and the cltv both at thorn it will bean
an up-hill task to continue business.
TKX.18 CATTLE.
An Important Decision Rendered by
Judge Shlras ot the U. 8. Court.
There was considerable excitement
caused hero two years ago , by the impor
tation into Harrison county , of some
Texas cattle , who were infected with the
feror. Other cattle , natives , caught it ,
and many died. Two men , Ball and
L'inkham , wcro arrested , charged with
having violated the section of the Iowa
code , forbidding such importation. The
question of the constitutionality of sec
tion -1058 was raised , anil the men were
discharged. Then civil suits were bo-
mm. P. C. Kiminish sued them for
$5,000 damnges. To the petition a do-
murier was made , setting up the uncon-
stitutinnality of the section under which
the suit was brought. Judge Shiras has
just rendered a decision , overruling the
demurrer , and in this Judge Love con
curs. Flickingor Bros , arc the attorneys
for the plaintiff , and Sapp and Pusoy for
the defendants.
The opinion is as follows :
Si-ctlons 4053 and 40.V.I of the code of lown ,
In force In 18S5 , were ixs follows :
Section 40.78. "If any person bring Into
this state any Texas cuttle , ho shall be lined
not exceeding $1,000. or Imprisoned in the
county jail not exceeding thirty days , unless
they have boon wintered at least one winter
north of the southern boundary of the state
of Missouri or Kansas , pinvldoU that noth
ing herein contained shall be construed to
pievcntor make unlawful the transporta
tion of such cnttlo through this state on rail
ways , or to prohibit the driving throit'li any
part of the state , or having In possession any
Texas cattle between the 1st dav of Novem
ber and the first day of April following.1'
Section 405' ) . 'It
any person now or hero-
after lias In his possession in this ttate any
such Texas cattle , ho shall bo liable for any
damages that may accrue from allowing ! < ald
cattle to run at largo anil thereby spreading
the disease- among other cattle known as the
Texas fever , and shall be punlsncd as pro
scribed In the preceding chapter. "
By an act of the legislature approved April
10 , 1885 , these sections were expressly 10-
pealed ana substitutes tberefor were en
acted.
Defendants claim that the repeal of sec
tion 40.V. , without any saving clause , termi
nates the right to recover , the section boi
penal.
Section 45 of the code provides that "the
repeal of a statute does not rnvivu a statute
previously repealed , nor affect any rUht
which has accrued , any duty Imposed , any
penalty incurred , or any proceeding commenced
monced , unless by vlrtuo of the statute ro-
repealed. " .
Under the provisions of this section the
rights of the parties are not atTectea by the
repeal of section 4059.
The argument of counsel for defendants
In support of the demurrer Is principally In
support of the proposition that sections
4.05Saml 4.05'.i of the code are unconstitu
tional In that they are regulations of inter
state commerce within the iieiinltlon given
to thatterm , In Itallioad company vs. IhiM
U5 LI. S. 405.
In that cause , the supreme court had under
consideration a statute of the state of Mis
souri , which absolutely prohibited the bring
ing Into the state for cfcht mouths In the
year any Texas , Mexican or Indian cattle ,
with the proviso , that bringing such cattle
Into the state loaded upon ears for transpor
tation through It , without unloading , should
not bo deemed a violation of the act , but that
the transportation company should bo liable
tor all damages caused , by the communica
tion of disease from such cattle.
The supreme court held that "while they
may pass sanitary laws , and laws for the
protection of life , liberty , health and property
within Its borders ; \vliilo it may prevent per
sons and animals suffering under contagious
or Infectious ill senses from entering the state
while for the purpose of self-tnotic'.lon I
may establish quarantine and reasonable
transportation laws , it may not Interfere
with transportation mtu or through the
state , beyond what Is t.bjolutely necessary tor
-ielf-protectlou , "
The court held , that the restrictions anil
burdens placed by this act upon the trans
pdrtatlon companies was so onerous as to
substantially prohibit commerce In theio cat
tie. and that therefore the act was void.
That the restrictions of the Inwa statute In
forc lu liS5 , were less burdensome ibau

those of the statute held unconstitutional In
tlio case cited , is apparent , but whether sut-
ticli'iUly so to remove the constitutional dlf-
ticulty , It Is not necessary .to determine.
Kvcn If section 40.VS could not bo sustained
as being only a fair exorcise of the power of
tlie state to protect Its citizens and their
property apainst infection and disease , would
It follow that section 40j' ' , which declares
that anyone haviiiK in his possession any
Texas cattle shall bo liable for any damages
that may result from permitting the same to
run at largo , tnereby communicating disease
to other cattle , is unconstitutional ?
Without , however , deciding the questions
argued by counsel touching tlio validity of
thcso sections of the code , It seoius clear that
the ilomurrer to the amended petition cannot
bo sustained , because the facts therein stated
constitute a cause of action , without aid
from the statutory provisions.
it Is alleged In the petition that the rattle
owned by defendants were lulected with the
disease known as "Texas fever , " ami that If
brought Into proximity to native cattle , or
upon pastures thereof , the disease would bo
liabln to be communicated ; that the , defend
ants knew this fact , and with such knowledge
brought such infected oittlo Into Iowa , and
permitted them to run at largo upon the
ruiiuo used by plalntlll's cattle , and thereby
the latter became Intectod and many of them
died.
died.Tho
The facts averred In the petition would jus
tify the jury in rindini : that the defendants
were negligent In permitting such cattle to
run at largo , when the natural and probable
result of so doing would bo the communica
tion of disease to other cattle , and If through
the negligence of defendants , as a proximate
cause , loss 1ms boon occasioned to plaintiff ,
an action therefore can bo maintained. The
demurrer Is therefore overruled.
