in Dubuque County, notwithstanding there
have been over two hundred cases pending
for nearly four years. All of the Judges
took the ground that the defendants, having
in their answers admitted the sale of wine and
beer, and the evidence having shown that
they sold whisky. it was clearly the duty of
the court, under the decisions of the Supreme
