Tenth Avenue Injunction ,
Ilnttirr Chilly For Ruinous.
Judge Shirus , of the United States district
court for the northern district of Iowa , has
remanded all brewery and saloon cases before -
fore him to thcstato courts , and Judge Love ,
of the southern district , has received similar
Instructions. ( This ruling of the federal court
Is of vital importance to liquor dealers
throughout the state. A Hun reporter yes
terday called upon Attorney llaldcnc , who
has been defending the Council Hluffs , cases ,
to get his opinion in regard to the llnal effect
of the decision upon the saloon men and
brewers.
"Mr. Haldcnc , what is this ruling of the
federal court going to do with the liquor
cases I" asked the reporter. "Why , it just
knocks them all in a heap. It is a foregone
conclusion with the saloon cases In this and
other cities , but that is what wo have been
expecting all along. This decision cannot
effect our brewery case , however , for we
fought the law on altogether different
grounds In this case than in the saloon
cases , and n different point is involved.
The ground taken in these other cases was
sure to result in this way , and it has been so
prophesied for some time. We wcro making
our light on an issue that seemed to us to
offer a much greater chance of success than
this one , but it may bo that It will meet with
the same fate. Our case has not , yet been
passed ujion. Notice has been given , but
the cnso has neither been argued nor sub
mitted. "
"When will Judge Love render a decision
in thiucusof"
"Well , that is something that I can't say.
Ho is not quite as abrupt in such matters as
some , but 1m will have to make two rulings
to cover both the saloon and brewery cases
of this city. Of course the saloon cases are
practically settled , but wu cannot yet tell
whether Mr. Ccise's valuable property in the
eastern part of the city will bo rendered a
useless load on his hands or not. This ques
tion Interests both producers and consumers ,
and the Html rulings will bo watched with
much interest. The 'liaek stairs' system
will not bo solely depended upon as long as
the front ones are open. When a man wants
a drink ho Is bound to have it , federal courts
to the contrary notwithstanding.1
These decisions will not prevent cases from
being carried to the federal court , Imt it will
cut off all possibility of evading the final
issue by delays and appeals , for thev will bo
immediately remanded to the state courts.
It looks as though the long-looked-for en
forcement of the prohibition law is near at
hand. The lines arc narrowing so that either
the law must bo repealed or the saloon men
go to jail. The violation of injunctions is a
risky business , and the chances of escaping
the consequences are very limited. Two
more decisions by Judge Love , one of them
already known , and the" lUfuor business of
this city will be finally settled.

No Need of Alarm.
There has been some sharp newspaper
criticism of Mr. J. J. Shea for having en
joined the Union Pacific on Tenth avenue
until the company should take steps to settle
damages to lots' owned by him. There has
been a great anxiety on the part of citizens to
havo-this enterprise go aheadand the Injunc
tion evidently nettled some , especially zeal
ous republicans who saw u chance to drlvu n
sharp point against the democratic county
clerk. The Nonpareil has had a personal
grudge against Mr. Shen , which doubtless
gives It the needed Inspiration for n lengthy
and leading editorial. The injunction Is not a
very serious matter.-for It Is only n temporary
obstruction to the progress of the \vork of
laying the track. It was hoped by many that
there would not even bo this much of a hitch ,
but there is no need of looking at the injunc
tion as a terrible blow to the future of this
city. The simple fact , ns viewed from Mr.
Shea's ' standpoint , is that the Union Pacific
eomprtliy has not taken any steps to tlx the
amount of his damages. No appraisers had
been appointed , and as the work was pro
ceeding ho simply sought to force the com
pany to have the damaucs passed upon In the
usual manner , by appraisers , as the law pro
vides. Ho has made no demand for any spec
ified sum , but simply wants the usiii'l form
followed for deciding whether there are dam
ages , and if so bow much they are. It was
on this ground that ho got the Injunction.
This Is about all there is to the affair over
which there has been such excited talk.

A meek visagcd , pious-looking : sort of a

this part of the world lately. Those who
wear the clerical cloth should especially bo
on their guard against him. At Missouri
Valley he called on Kcv. Mr. Hcstwood and
borrowed SJ1 on the strength of a pathetic
story about having a dying mother nt Dcnni-
n , whoso bedside ho must reach at once.
Ho was next heard from at Logan , where lie
borrowed a like amount of Kcv. Mr. Thorn-
bruc , with the same sort of a story , with
variations. At Carroll ho was trying to
make another loan to enable him to go to the
bedside of another of his numerous but dying
relatives. One of his former victims chanced
to appear on the scene and the schemer was
forced to put up collateral for his loans and
then allowed to depart.

Shortclifffbeard , now nearly white , keen
eyes , and quick , decisive speech. Cable
has been a railroader for twenty years ,
but not until his memorable contest with
Willinm II. Vnndorbilt for the control
of the Rock Island was he much known
outside of Illinois. Cable and II. II.
Porter , directors , had the temerity to
differ with Vanderbilt as to the policy
of tlio road , and the latter decided to got
rid of them. This seemed an easy pro
cess for the plutocrat. His will had
never been crossed , and up to this time
the directory of the roads in which ho
held stock had been made up at his
dictation. Uut Cable and Porter wcro
not made of yielding material. They
prepared for a light in the annual
election. While Vnndorbilt contented
himself with advertising for proxies de
pending on the prestige of his name
to attract the stockholders , Cable and
Parlor went actively to work upon them
personally , visiting the smaller ones ,
tho'widows and orphans and trustees
whose funds whoso funds were invested
in the great Iowa lino. When the elec
tion came oil , to his utter astonishment ,
the king wns routed. It was his first
defeat. This gave Cable a. national
fame. He is a very hard worker , spend
ing seven or eight hours a day at his
desk ; and on his frequent tours of in
spection ho carries along a clerk or two.
lie is a genial and companiomiblc man ,
who bears his heavy responsibilities as
financial and executiqe head of the
great corporation very easily.

Sail nonnrdhio Courier : C. II. Wil-
l\ins and Edward Somers lived in the
White cam ] ) . Saii'Antonio canyon. Re
timing to their bouse about the time
of midnight t.batrwas the dividing line
between the Kith and liOth of the pres
ent month , they were very disagreeably
surprised to see _ by the light of their lan
terns a mountain lion in the act of go
ng under the bulling. Having no
irms with them , mid knowing that the
lloor of their domicile was a a Ilims y af
fair and could easily bo torn to pieces
liy the dangerous nuimal , they consid
ered a tree near by their only refuge ,
and upon such consideration , they
limbed the tree with that
dexterity which frequently ae-
companinies danger. Comfort
iibly ensconced among the boughs , they
spent the night waiting for the day
light. It came , but it placed t he occu
pants of the tree in even a more dan
gerous predicament than before. The
lion still possessed the premises , and Jo
descend would place those who might
injudiciously attempt a descent in dan
ger of being eaten bodily. At about
noon Colonel Hopkins , Dave Wixom.
Mrs. Van Clivo and Miss Eva Goodrich
appeared on the scene in a carriage ,
when informed by the dwellers among
the braneees of the state of af
fairs Mr. Wixom killed the lion with a
ball from a rille and announced that the
gentlemen might descend in safety.
Ed. Iluce is now tanning the hide of
the animal , which will be presented tea
a gentleman well known in this city.
