In Adrian, Last Saturday, A Jury In

the circuit court rendered a verdict granting $4,000 in favor of Maria Larheler in her suit against Frank Kirchgessner, a ealoon-keeper. They are Clinton or Tecumseh partiea. Kirchgessner had sold liquor to the plaintiff's hueband ; the husband became intoxicated, feil from his wagon in driving home, which resulted in breaking his neck. No one will charge The Register with favoring the saloons; but we never could see the justice in asking the saloon-keeper to be responsible for ■what damage might arise from such incidents. We know that the Btatutes provide for it ; but is it right? As long aBSOcietyrecognizesthesaloon-business as legal, and derives a large revenue from it, ought not society to pay for all deaths that may result from the business? The saloon-keeper, by no amount of care, can teil exactly how much every customer can drink without becoming intoxicated.
