An important decision, closely affecting
the traffic in ardent spirits in Iowa, was
rendered at Muscatine, in that state, by
Judge Hayes, of the Seventh judicial dis
trict. The judge decided that SO much O!
the Iowa Prohibitory Liquor law as refers
to the importation and sale of domestic
wines conflicts with those sections Of the
constitution of the United States which
govern the commerce between states, and
was, consequently, imperative. The deci-
sion was made in the case of the State VS..
Welsh, saloon-keeper of Muscatine, and
is regarded as direct stab at the vitals OF
the Iowa Prohibitory law. The case goes
to the Supreme Court, wherein the opinion
of able constitutional lawyers, the decision
will he sustained. n that event it would
nullify the entire law
