Moorhead, in the O'Neil liquor case
where charge is preferred against the
prisoner for selling liquor On boat in
the Red River, end in which case his
honor held that the state had power to
take jurisdiction, is the subject OF con-
siderable comment among the legal fra

criticism of several prominent attorneys
is somewhat severe. Judge Mills held
that county has jurisdiction to punish
crime committed on any portion Of the
! river, while those not agreeing with his
honor's ruling set forth the fact that the

be watched with interest by the public
generally, not alone for the legal points
which will develop, but also for the effect
on all boats plying in navigable waters
on which liquor is sold.
