Tbe only caae of any considerable importance tried at tbe term was tbe case of Ben Becker, vs. the White River Valley Railway company, wnerein tbe plaintiff sued tbe company for the killing of some stock that had strayed upon tbe track. It was tbe contention of tbe plaintiff's at torney, Mr. Williamson, that failure of tne company to fence rendered the company absolutely liable for stock killed on tbe track and that all that was ncresaary for the plaintiff to prove was tbe killing of the stock upon tde right of way without proof of other negligence on the part of tbe com pany. Tbe defendant's attorney,Chas. D. Howe, con tended that the company was not, liable on the ground that tbe cattle killed were trespassers, that no uegligence had been proven on the part of tbe company, and that failure on its part to fence its light of way wiis not constructive or other negli gence. It will be recalled that this latter view was the one taken by Judge Me Uee of the Black Hills circuit in a le cent case. The court, however, held with the plaintiff. This case is of ureat importance as there are hun dreds of claims for damages pending against the company for Btock killed and if sustained by the supreme court will compel tbe company to pay out thousands of dollars in damages. Toe plaintitf moved for double damages to which tbe defendant will raise the con stitutionality of tbe statute. HISS C0UZ1NS The Great Suffragist Thinks Ballot is Demoraliaar of Women. Chicago, May 5.—Miss Pooebe Cou zins, lawyer, formei suffragist, lectur er and the first American woman to seive as a United States marshal, who is in Chicago to attend the Peace Con gress this week as one of the delegates from the District of Columnia, gives it Hatly 88 her opinion that the ballot is a woman demoralizer and that poli tics begets a mental conflict in wo man tnat leads her to do a great many tbings she does not do in her proper sphere, which Miss Conzins says is the home, tbe improvement of society, the federation clubs and the churches. "I think I have a fair idea of what would occur if women were given the ballot througnout tbe country from tbings I have observed in Colorado," she said. "One woman who worked through one of the campaigns there told me of all eorts of abuses which bad crept up under the universal bal lot. "A Mexican who had wife and four danghters qualified to vote did a thriving business during tbis particu lar campaign The woman I know went to him wbile working through the ward and was greatly astonished when tne man asaed? 'How mncb you give for my fam ily voteV she indignantly replied that she wonld give nothing. Tbe man demanded $tt a head. "Later the woman discovered that the man had been paid $2 a head by workers o! one party and $4 each by another political body.
