IT MEANS FREE LICENSES,
A Law and Order Opinion of the Excise
Board Project.

Board Project.
A bill to provide for an excise board to re-
lieve the Judges from the duty of granting or
refusing Licenses, will come up before the next
Legislature. 1t has caused widespread COM
ment, and already the Law and Order Society
has begun to strike at it. In an interview on
Tuesday Lewis d. Vail, the Philadelphia So
licitor for the Law and Order Society, bitterly
denounced the project as move toward free
liquor.
Yesterday William Yost, ESQ.,, the Pitts
burg attorney for that organiza-
ton, was interviewed and said:
An excise board would mean free licenses 1t
would but tighten the grip of the liquor men
on the State. In counties where there is
prohibition majority it would work. but where
there is prohibition now and the matter is
evenly divided everything would be thrown to
the whisk- men. In Philadelphia and Alle-
gheny counties il would mean unlimited
licenses. The whisky men would combine and
put up money, while we could only fight them
with sentiment and charity. We learned a
good lesson in the amendment campaign We
learned then that sentiment would not swing
heelers, but money would. We are not able to
put up the money, and if the license power is
taken out of the courts the liquor men will
control everything.
Excise boards have ALWAYS been a failure
They grant license to everyone who applies
What we want is to have the Brooks law made
more stringent, and also to have the granting
of wholesale licenses at the discretion of the
court"

WATER IN THE MILK.
Washington County Dairymen Get
Before the Bar of Justice
FOR ADULTERATING THEIR GOODS.
Panhandle Employees Suspected Of Tamper-
ing With the Milk.
MORE CASES MAY FOLLOW SHORTLY

Milk Inspector McCutcheon has opened
warfare upon Washington county dairymen
who ship milk to this city, orselling adHlter-
ated milk. Yesterday evening SIX of them
had hearing before Magistrate Succop, OF the
Southside, and it is said that more will follow.
On Saturday, August 80, Mr.. McCutcheon
visited the Panhandle depot, on the South
side, where all the Washington county milk is
delivered, and inspected lot of the cans. He
found the entire shipment belonging to John
OfheIDap standing at temperature of 46o with
the gravity averaging $40. This was per cent
below the standard required by the law, and
the milk, amounting to % gallons, was thrown
out. The milk of A. w. Miller. of Houston
ville was tested and found To be IL per cent be-
low the requirements. j. f. Webster. of Muir
ray Hill had II gallons condemned, as the test
showed 1t to lack 10 per cent of being within
the bounds of what is considered pure milk.
George Trautman. OF Noblestown, had "a
gallons. the gravity of which stood at so. j.
A. Cowden had IL gallons which stood at 79o.
VIM. Anger also had a lot condemned.
AT the hearing last evening the defendants
places in pure condition, and if it was adul-
terated, it must have been tampered with
along the way. Mr.. Miller said the train-men
along the road sometimes drank milk from the
cans and filled them up with water, and the
farmers have made complaints about the mat
ter to the railway company. Mr.. McCutcheon
suggested that the farmers insist on the COM
pany TO put detectives on the road for their
own protection, if this is the case. as no matter
how the adulteratIon comes about if it is
proven to exist the owners OF the milk are held
responsible.
One or two of the defendants endeayored to
find some way in which it would have been
possible for the milk to become adulterated
without it being done by them personally. One
suggested that the cans might not have been
perfectly tight, and while the milk was cooling
it might have taken water. Mr.. McCutcheon
could not see how this could occur, as it would
not be likely that all the cans belonging TO any
one man would leak.
All of the defendants but William Anger,
were fined $40 and costs. The latter was dis
charged upon the payment of costs. Mr.. Nc
Cutcheon said after the hearing that he
thought there would be more cases from the
same district before long.
