The ProhlbitOry Law.

YANeToN, OAK, Oct. 16.-John G
Murphy, United States attorney for
Dakota, in an interview bearing upon
the question of mucn interest at this
time says: The enforcement of the
prohibitory law may be impossible in
South Dakota until three months after
the adjournment of the legislature,
and quotes section twenty-five of
article three of the constitution, which
reads:
No act shall take effect until ninety
days after the adjournment of the SEES
sion at which it passed unless in case
of emergency to be expressed in the
preamble of the body of the act, the
legislature shall by two-thirds of ali
members of each house, otherwise di-
rect"
This precludes the hope of assistance
from the legislature for the enforce
ment of the prohibitory clause, unless
the required two thirds of all the mem
bers can be secured, which is hardly
probable.

before justice, alleging that certain
liquors owned by Con Creeden were
kept in tie Rock Islan1 freight depot
in Des Moine5, intended for sale in
violation Of the law. The railroad
company was made a party and the
case was tried in the district court and
the liquors were ordered destroyed.
The defendants appealed, claiming
the matter became one of inter state
commerce, over which the state
courts had no jurisdiction. The
decision of the supreme court finds
that Creeden was q persistent violator
OF the law and had been receiving
liquor in this way for some time, using
the freight Office as storage room to
keep the liquors in packages until
needed. These liquors had been re-
ceived from six 20 fifteen days prior to
the seizure. The court holds that the
interstate commerce feature of the
transactions ended when the liquor had
reached the freight house. Under the
circumstances it seems that the liquor
was being held for illegal purposes and
was no longer matter of interstate
commerce and were properly seized and
condemned.
