Mr. Miller on tho Liquor Law.

MEssRs EDITORS: In response
to your inquiry, permit me to say
that il the majority vote of this
county shall he cast against tie sale
of whiskcy, III my opinion the eff.
feet of that will be 70 repeal the
present prohibition law of the coun-
ty and leave in force as the only
prohibitory law the general prohib.
tory law of 1886, which law is
much less stringent in its terms. L
am of the opinion that under the
act of, 1886, a man can treat anoth-
or and can give away whiskey to
another in any place other than his
place of business for the purpose of
Inducing trade; and l am also OF
opinion that under the act of 1886
one man can order whiskey for an-
other aud can give it to his ems
ployees ut log rollings, etc, and in
these respects Irepeat that the law
of 1886 is more liberal than our
present prohibitory law.
Very respectfully,
