a visitor at Edmond this wook on
legal business, Ho was of tho opin-
ion thai Edmond was a much better
town than had been representod and
tho surrounding country beyond
his expectations. He with others
wilf witnofs the opening of tho strip
and probably make tho run,
Woo to the man that always looks
on the dark side of the picture. His
life is a living death. Ho ofteu
fetches up if. suicide, and tho groat
wonder is they do not all end that
way. They tease and fret over tho
evil to como until they become b j
morbid that they aro vexed when a
good thing comes. Look on the
bright side and yon will be all the
bolter prepared to bear the ills of
life whon they shall como upon you.

The chances are that farmers will
realize a good p.ieo for their hay
product tills season.. In the course
of a few days that commodity i> to
bo dealt iii on tho Now York Produce
Exchange, it is expected, will be
heavy. Tho home consumption has
heretofore governed tho price of
hay, but Iho demand from abroad
will now have much to do with its
value. The hay crop is by no means
an insignificant crop in t'fcuj country,
being valued in 1887 at §100,000,-
000, or a third more than Hie entire
cotton product. As wo have here
tofore stated the chances are that
Franco will draw heavily on Amer

Therefore whon a business man,

his job work away, ignoring the

little circumstance away iu his mind
and produces it afterwards for pub-
lic good. The iiiau who for malice
or indifference would starvo out

Upon motion the ordinance presented

for one month amounting to $o was
tabled. A committee of two, con-
sisting of MesMh. Jayue and Math

(The committee on petition of town

On inotiou v. committee of thr< con-
stating of Jayne, Poppino and Math-
ewn, were appointed to examine the
proceedings'of tho council for the
past three years to iiseexLain
so to do. with the ordinances of the
town of Edmond and tho laws of the
Territory order to procure such
license, \ this brings us to the
conside. a of the sooond proposi-
tion insisted upon by tho plaintiff
viz. That if the defendant hp- n<
license, that he cannot bo heard t
plead by way of confession and
avoidance, or show that he had done
all (iu so far as was possible on his
part) toward procuring such license
and that the fault of bin having no
lieenao was attributable to tho plain
tiff, because of its refusal to isauo
such license. Plaintiff filed a iuy
lion that the court do not consider,
any testimony to show such lufiml
u tho part of tho plaintiff, or that;
tho court do not oor.uiilor Hiiy of the
testimony, on the part of tho defend-
ant showing tho pose salon by him of
a county liconse for the current year,
regularly obtained a* by law provid-
ed, or tho payment into trie town
treasurer of said town, of any sum
f money, tbo application of defend-
ant to the president aud Board of
Trustees of tho town, by him. for a
license, the attempt to exhibit hiB
county license, or any other con-
dition precedent to be performed by
him for the obtaining of such license
undor tho ordinance of tho town.
For the reasons that on general prin-
ciples of law, no party may be hoard
to complain of tho fault or < ou^i <n
of another when tho fault or omission
of such other party is directly and
solely tho result of wrongful acts of
the party complaining, and for other
reasons of justice, good ^ivd emont,
sound principles of law, the motion
was by tho court over ruled. It
would be a strange manner of dis
pensiug justice to all parties, if the
e.our of ou: land w< r ■ to sancii«-u
such proceedings, sought to prevail
in this case, by ita motion "He
who seeks justico must first g've jus-
tice'" applies just as fully in this caso
as iu any .other "He who comes in-
to court must come with clean bauds.'
Both of these principles tho plaintiff
seoms to have forgotten in this case,
aud this court will uot lend itself to
be u party *.o tho persecution of any
individual, whether he be a saloon
keeper, oi any other person. The
overwhelming and conclusive ovi
ilence in this caso shows that do
fondant complied to the iotler of tho
law in all the prescribed formalities
in obtaining his county license for
this current year. That on the 30th
day of June (tho day he obtained a
County liceuse) he filed a written ap-
plication in tho clerks office for a li-
conbo under the ordinance th <n in
force (No. 11) fov one quarter and
paid some money into tho town treas-
urer, which application seems not to
have boon considered by tho Board.
On the sixth day of July ordinance
No. 11, was adjudged by the court
to bo null and void which brought
into existance No. 7, on tho same
subject. Deft, then said into the
towi treasuror fifty dollars to apply
on tho payment of the tax for a town
license. That on the night of the
18th of July he was present in poi-
son at a regular meeting of the
Board of Trustees of Edmond for tho
purpose of exhibiting his county li-
oeuso, his receipts, receipt from the
town treasurer of Edmond, offering
to pay tho further sum of fifty dol-
lars, making in all tho sum of one
[hundred dollars, f r a license for six
mouths as required by ordi-
nance thon iu force, and did repeat
o ily attempt to present his applica-
tion aud exhibit his county license
and other necessary requisites as the
law directs to obtain a town license,
and that on that ilight the President
of tho Board actually held iu his
hands at ono time said evidenco and
application, and the defendant was
wholly refused an nudiauce with the
Board, That the same proceeduro
on tho part of the defendant was
held at an adjourno 1. regular meet-
ing of tho town board on tho eveo^,
ing of tho '20th of July last, except
that Jefendaut was represented in
person and by J. C. IlofiuB his at
torney, and that hiH attorney repeat-
edly attempted and constantly in-
sisted and requested to by heard for
the said purpose, and succeeded iu
handing to tho town clerk said ap
plication or authority of tho same
import, and instead of listening to
defendants attorney and performing
their duty in the presence of the
Board wholly against both defend-
ant ami his attorney. And the presi-
dent of the board instructed tho town
clerk to neither tile tho said applies
tfon or allow ita presentation to ap-
pear in the minutes of the mooting,
and offered personal violence to de-
fendants attorney, by threatening to
put him out of the hall. There
nothing iu ovidence tending to sh
any valid reason for such refusal.
That defendants or attorneys actions
were in any manner improper is not
shown by any witness ou part of the
plaintiff, nor is there any other valid
reason shown for tbei{ refusal to is
suo such license. Tho prosecution
seems to have rested on the theory

It is tho duty of tho Board when any
person has made application for a
license to sell liquor* and has exhibit
od or at tempted to exhibit t he prop
evidence of his qualifications to
receive such evidence, to issue the
license no matter what ordinance is
in force,,or what the requirements
of that ordinance may be, and w hen
the Board refuses to perform such
duty and when thoy or any other
person attempts to take advantage
of their own wrong in this court,
thoy have mistaken the temper,
v . i hods and inclinations of the court.
This reasoning disposes of all the
objections and propositions raised in
the cn^o. The defendant is dis-
charged an (kail costs iu the jiiso ar •

On the Santa Fe Route, in northern
Arizona, 1,263 miles from Kansas
City, is tho town of Flagstaff. A
tri- weekly stage line runs from
Flagstaff to tho Grand Canon of the
Colorado River. More than a milo
in depth, this is the sublitne«t of
gorges—a Titan ofchasiiK. Twen-
ty Yosemites might be hidden un-
seen below, and Nisgra would look
scarcely larger than a brook. Don't
fail to visit this first wonder of the
world. You can "read up" about it
by asking (i. T. Nicholson, G. IJ. &
T. A., A. T. & S. F. R. R. Co., To

of an illustrated book describing this
terra incognita. The book is no
common affair; hut is entertainingly
written, beautifully illustrated, and
a gem of the printer's art.
