The Supreme Court last Monday
Chief-Justice Cooper delivering the
opinion, affirmed the decision of the
lower court against two liquor firms
of Meridian, by which the Prohibi
zionist, Of that city are again victo
rious. This decision settles point
which will hereafter have tendency
to place check on the arbitrary &C
tion of lordly City Councils in
granting license to liquor men.
Among other things, the opinion af
firms that when petition for
license is illegally granted by the
municipal authorities a voter who
filed contemplation thereto may
remove this record to the Circuit
Court by certiorari, and that a
Judgement of the Circuit Court
under such circumstances, quashing
the order by which the license was
granted, Is proper disposition OF
the case.

The Last Liquor Petition.

THk LEADER presents today for
the inspection OF its readers another
liquor petition, with the names ar.
ranged in alphabetical order. The
list of rames differs in some respects
from the one last published, but its
general character is the same. En-
bracing q number of our reputable
citizens and business men, the rest,
white and black, is constituted of a
class neither noted for their good
morals, wealth nor responsibility. A
remarkable feature of the petition is,
that along with the name of the APP
plicant recommending himself, are
the names of five of the six Alder
men who are to decide upon its mer-
it's and the Mayor. What farce
1t is true the law counts all names
that are not on petition for license
as so many against it, but the
Board are not responsible for the
law; they are responsible only, I'M
der their oaths, for its faithful and
impartial execution.
When Smiths petition was contest
ed and decided against the Prohibi-
tionists by the Board, member OF
this highly impartial (D tribunal
said to "a gentleman who was criti.
cising the decision "You Prohibi-
tionists ought to have been satisfied
that the members Of the Board
didn't sign the liquor petition ; they
would all have signed that way il
they had signed at all" The Pro
hibitioulst's retort was "That was
entirely immaterial you cast your
votes when you rendered your deci.
sion" The four members of the
Board who have signed have nc
doubt determined to cast two votes
each this time. They vote now OIL
the petition. and, if necessary, when
it comes to contest over tue ap'
plication, they will vote again. See
A little sense Of propriety here q,
least would have been an admirable
virtue of which they seem destitute
Judge Chrisman refused to sit on
the trial of the writ of certiorari in
the Smith case, solely on the ground
that he was one of the signers of the
Prohibition petition; and on this &C
count the trial had to be postponed
until the January term of the Cour,
to be tried by another Judge. Howev
err, our Mayor and these five Alder
men are afflicted with no such mod.
esty.
1t is unnecessary to add that this
petition and the two soon to follow
it will be contested blythe Prohibi
tionlsts over every inch of The
ground, and we are glad to know
with good prospects of success, I
hostile City Council to the contrary
notwithstanding.
To begin on, this petition has II
less names than Smiths.

The majority of people suffer to a

Boiling Lincoln.

A few days prior tn aud including
the day ofthc election, reports sucl
as the ones contained in a cor6
munira,inn Published elsewhere
were cncrgetically circulated in thi:
county To the detriment of DIR. j. z
Wise, nominee for Floater. The
following "dodger" or circular was
also printed and widely circulated
throughout the county, together with
tickets containing McLaurin's name;
To the Voters of Lincoll County:
We, the voters of Jefferson county,
appeal to the voters and farmers in
particular, of Lincoln county, to sup
port Mr.. L. b. McLaurin for Floater
| Although beaten by the ring in Con
vention, we, his friends, propose to
see him elected and if the voters OF
Lincoln county will assist us we will
succeed.
lie is a farmer and a farmers can
didate, while his opponent is an adj
vocaia of law to keep all stock
within enclosure.
We do not know how it happened
that the aforesaid "voters of jefferson
county" forgot tn sign their own
names, Tor Popui or some other
convenient signature to this doc,
ument; what we wish 10 call partic-
ular attention TO is the fact that all
this d;spleasure over Wise, as we'll
as that chronicled in the communi-
cation, is stated TO have emanated
from jefferson county. 1t turned
out, however, on the day Of election,
that while Lincoln, worked up by
this clecLionccring dodge, gave Nc
Laurin 454 majority over the regular
nominee. Jefferson, who had been
represented as the aggrieved party,
calling upon Lincoln To rebuke a
great political outrage, voted almost
sotidly for Wise and didn't recognize
McLaurin in the race.
In what q ridiculous attitude is
Lincoln thus placed, and how in
finitely "cheap" must all feel, who
were thus tricked into boiling their
party nominee.
BY the way, many men who pose as
Democrats in this county are grow.
ing rather famous for boiling
their nominees. Lincoln professcd
TO go into the District-Attorney
convention two years ago in good
faith, but when McLaln was nom
mated and was opposed by Deason
Independent, she gave Deason c
majority of TAB. The same year she
went into a Convention with Jeffer
son and nominated Applewhite fol
Floatcr, and then beat him with
Truly, Independent, by 46 votes
Now comes the Wise McLaurin ter
giversation. In every instance tn,
nominee has only been saved by the
loyalty Of Democrats of other coun
ties. What q miserable showing
for Lincoln Democrats!
In future one Of two things should
be done: Lincoln Democrats should
be given to understand that they
must stand loyalty by the party
nominee; or else the other countie,
should rule them out of their Con
ventions and recommend that Lin
coin be constituted a separate dis
trict in every respect unto herself.
