An Important Exolse Doolslon.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 1l.-In the supreme
court of the United State Justice Field de-
livered the decision OF the court In the case
Of z. Crowley, chief OF police OF San Fran
cisco, vs.. Henry Christensen, appellee
The court decided that the board Of police
commissioners of San Francisco had arbi-
trary power to grant or refuse liquor
licenses, aud reversed the order OF the cir
cult court for the Northern district OF Cal
itornia, disoharging the prisoner Christ
ensen who was charged with selling liquor
without a license), and remanded the
cause, with directions to take further pro
ceedings ia conformity with the opinion.
Justice Field, in his opinion, discussed
at length the relations between the liquor
business and the laws OF the country. He
says. "It is undoubtedly true that II is
the right OF every citizen to pursue any
lawful business subject only TO such re-
strietions as are imposed on all persons OF
the sanas age. sex or condition. But the
possession and enjoyment OF this right,
and indeed OF all rights, are subject to
such restrictions as may be deemed by the
governing authority Of the country essen
tial to the safety, health, peace, good Or

1T is urged that as the liquors are used

A Question OF Public Expedienoy.
1.-THE sale OF such liquors in this way has
heretofore been considered the proper sub

matter their sale by the glass may be abso

There Is no inherent right Of citizen t,

The Crop BuilstIn for November.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE November
returns to the department of agriculture
of rates OF yield per acre make the average
for corn, 1919 bushels; potatoes, 57.5 bush
els; buckwheat, II 8 bushels; hay, 1.20
tons; tobacco, us pounds.
The corn crop makes the smallest yield
reported, excepting only that of 1881, which
was 1876 bushels. II is SO per cent OF the
average OF the last ten years, period
which included four unusually poor years,
and only 73 per cent. Of last years crop
The Indications OF recent returns have
been so uniform that the estimate for
permanent record will not be likely 70
change this figure, unless by a slight frac-
tion. The decline Of the last decade is not
due to impairment OF fertility but TO me
neurological influences. The highest rates
are in New England, as usual New York
averages 25.3; Pennsylvania, 215; Ohio,
Dot; Michigan, 20 z; Indiana, 2L3; Illinois,
25; Iowa, 20; Missouri, 25s; Kansas, 1l.3;
Nebraska, 203. The principal decline is
in the corn surplus states.
The Potato Crop Small.
The condition of the potato crop in Octo-
Der was lower than in any reported previ-
Gus CROP except 1887, being 6l7 against
61.5, when the rate Of yield was 500 bush
els per acre. 1t imports scarcity and war
rants high prices. The low rates Of yield
Of principal states are as follows; New
York. 62 bushels; Pennsylvania, 6s; Michi-
gan, So; Ohio, 46; Indiana, 81; Illinois, 90;
Iowa, 4s; Missouri, 80; Kansas, %; Nebras-
ka, "a; Minnesota, 6S; Maine, 95; New
Hampshire, 90, and Vermont, 95.
The yields Of the hay crop are large
throughout the country. The cane sugar
crop will be a large one, and sugar beets
have done we'll west of the Missouri, indi-
eating a probably rapid development of
