The Supervisors Appropriate $500 For
It-Liquor License Ordinance
-Constables' Mileage.

The Board of Supervisors resumed its
session yesterday forenoon, all the mem
bers being present, and Mr.. Greer in the
chair.
ID. +. Dillman, representing the Liquor
Dealers Association, appeared and asked
the board to set day on which himself
and the committee of liquor men might
be heard upon the license question.
On the suggestion of Mr.. Bates, this
morning was set as a proper time to hear
the saloon men, and Mr.. Dillman was SO
informed. The association has secured
the services of an attorney. They appear
confident that the license ordinance will
be reconsidered and changes made by
the board.
HEAVY MILEAGE.
The board then took up the usual batch
of monthly bills against the county for
examination. Mr.. Bates, in going over
one of Constable Brissels bills, discovered
that that official had charged the county
mileage for taking Il prisoner across 1
street-from the County Jail to Justice
Hepry's court. Mr.. Bates said that
Stevens was the prisoner who had scaled
the County Jail wall, and in doing SO had
broken his leg. All Constable Brissel
Stevens across the street, a distance OF
not more than one hundred feet.
Nobody else seemed to pay any atten-
ton to the matter, however, and the sub
ject was dropped.
sACRAMENTo's EXHIBIT.
George c. McMullen, J. II. Hamilton,
and Mrs. G. A. Hull, committee from
Sacramento Grange, Patrons of Hus-
bandry, appeared before the board and
asked that the county contribute some
thing this year toward display of pro-
ducts to be made at the State Fair. Mr..
McMullen said that it had been custom
airy each year with the Supervisors to
lend assistance in this matter. Last year,
the county carried off the first prize-and
county contributed $500 and the city 5000.
This year it was not intended to compete
for the prize, but an exhibit would be
made just the same. 1t was desired that
other counties should have chance.
Mr.. Greer left the chair in order to ad-
yocate allowing the grange $500 this year.
be said that every body was familiar with
the record Sacramento County had made
in these displays. She stood at the pres
ent time ahead of every other county in
the State. Although it was not intended
to discourage other counties by entering
the list again this year for the prize, still
1t was desirouS that the county should
make good showing just the same.
On motion of Supervisor Jenkins an
appropriation of $500 was made for the
exhibit.
The board then resolved itself into a
Board of Equalization, and the rest of the
day was consumed in equalizing taxes.

FIGHTING THE LICENSE.
The Liquor Men File Demurrer in
the Police Court.

The Liquor Men File q Demurrer in
the Police Court.
w. A. Anderson, counsel for the sa-
loon-keepers who were arrested Saturday
on charges of keeping their places of
business open after midnight, filed a de-
murrer to the complaint in the Police
Court yesterday.
The following exceptions to the suf-
fciency of the complaints are taken:
First-Because the complaint does not
state facts sufficient to constitute public
offense.
Second-Becauset the complaint does not
state the substance of any ordinance de-
scribing public offense.
Third-That it does not appear that the
alleged ordinance has ever been passed or
published under any order of the Board
of Trustees of Sacramento, or that il has
ever become bylaw of said city.
Fourth-Because it appears from the
allegations in said complaint that the pro-
visions of said alleged ordinance are un-
reasonable in this: That all persons are
prohibited from keeping open any bar
room or saloon between the hours of Il
o'clock midnight and 3 o'clock in the
morning, which act cannot be unlawful
unless accompanied by the sale of the in
hibited liquors.
Fitth-Ihat the provisions of Section
10 of said ordinance, under which said
complaint purports to be drawn, are un-
constitutional and void-being unreason-
able and applying only to a special few,
and not impartial.
Sixth-That said provisions of Section
lO OF said ordinance tends to create a
monopoly by granting special privileges
for an additional consideration.
Seyenth-Because it appears that said
provisions are not impartial.
Eighth-That it does not appear that
defendant sold or attempted to sell any
Xlnous, splrltuous or malt liquors during
the said hours of II O'Clock midnight and
O'Clock in the morning.
Nlnth-That the Board of Trustees had
no power TO use the name of the people
Of the State of California for the alleged
violation of an ordinance.

he had to pass by several saloons and

Homer f. Royce, ex-chief Justice Of
Vermont, died at st. Adams Friday
evening, April "a. He was taken with
the grip three weeks ago and death re-
suited from a consequent stroke of APP

shire, VT, June II, 1920. He received
an education in the district schools. sup
plemented by study at st. Adams and
Enosburg academies; began the study of
law in 1912, and was admitted to the bar

served the county as State Senator sew
eral years. He represented his State in

associate justice of the supreme court of
Vermont. which position he retained till

Judge PierpOnt. Judge Royce was re-
peatedly elected to this important posi-
ton by the legislature, resigning on ac-
count of impaired health Just before the
time set for the choice of Judges by the
legislature of 1880. The degree of LID.

was one of the ablest iurists who ever
occupied the bench in Vermont. and rem
dered numerous noteworthy decisions
which have often been quoted since.
Since his retirement from the chief JUS

failing, and the grip found his system in
poor condition for resistance. The end
