Testing the Original Package Law.

TOPEKA, KAN, Oct. 2.-The argument
in the noted Rahers habeas corpus case 1,
the first test made of the Wilson original
package law, has been concluded. The
petitioner attorney argued against the
constitutionality of the new law, and
made the point that the prohibItory Law
was not operative so far as dealers in
original packages were concerned before
the enactment Of the Wilson bill it was
never q constitutional law and the Wilson
bill cannot make the state law effective
in that class of cases.
Although no formal opinion was
expressed by either Judge Foster or
Judge Phillips, who listened to the argu-
ment in the case. Both practically ad-
mltted the tenability of the position
taken in the particular, and 1t is con-
eeded that even if a court decides the
new law to be constitutional 1t cannot be
effective until the legislature passes an
other prohibitory measure. The case is
now under Amusement. n
