BANDON,
Sues to Recover
Damages
Coquille Saloon Man Want*
$5,000.
A sensational action for damages
was instituted in the circuit Court at
Ibis place Monday morning, the case
being another outcropping of the long
waged and norelaxed community war
over the liquor traffic. The plaintiff
to the action is Chas. E. Baxter, and
the defendant Philip E. Drane, but
there are named as co-defendants and
co-conspirators J. J. Lamb, M. H.
Heraey, W. A. Goodman and A. E.
Simpson. The amount sued for is
$5000 and costs. A. S. Hammond is
attorney for the plaintiff.
Iu bis complaint Mr. Baxter al
leges that iu June, 1905, tbe defend
ants conspired to injure him io rep
utation aud business by causing bis
arrest and tbe continued closing of
his establishment, be being, as be
further alleges, eugaged in lawful re
tail liquor selling in the city of Co
quille. By reason of such arrest aud
tbe deprivation of business earnings,
contrary to the law and bis rights as
a citizen be contends, be bas been in
jured in character and business to an
extent valued at $5000. Costs ancl
counsel fees are also demanded.
The action will come up for tnil at
tbe September term of court, but as
to who will represent tbe defendants
we are not informed.—Seutinel.

sluted and issued attachment against
tbe personal property of individual
members of tbe union. If a merchant
should parade in front of another
man’s place of business with banners
to tbe effect that bis goods were “un

burry, because the rival ' merchant
would be financially responsible.
Hence, if a law is good for oue class
of men it stands to reason that it
should also be just to auotber class.
Labor unions should incorporate for
their own protection. The iuuocent

suffers from the misdoings of the

earns bis daily bread by tbe power
of bis jaw. Moreover a legal body
will not do anything that may be sub

prevail. The average employer is in
