The LocSl Option Case Quietly Argued
Before the Court-Dccision withheld.

STAUNTON, VA, Jan. 1J.-Spccial.-
Peace reigns. The final hearing OF the
local option petition was had In the
Hastings Court this afternoon. The
courtroom was packed from ceiling 10
floor with both white and colored specta-
tors. A feeling OF deep anxiety was
evident. and this together with the warn
ing from the bench. and restraint inn
posed upon the attorneys on both sides,
prevented "a repetition OF the lamenta-
bic scenes Of Saturday.
The town has been wonderfully excited.
but both sides have shown moderation
and prudence with an earnest desire to
maintain the peace, and preserve the
good name OF our people as law abiding
citizens. j. Il. Stephenson. of Harrison
burg, leading counsel for the Prohibition
lists. contended that the question was
limited by the local option statute as
found in the Code. which was manda-
tory In its terms when the requirements
as to number of signers and lapse OF
time had been complied with. w. T..
Craig, counsel for the liquor dealers,
enforced the idea that the petition now
before the court being the same in sub
stance as the petition OF December 18th.
IL stood as "res adjudcata," and there
fore the local option petitioners had now
no standing in court. That strict con-
struction of the statute required lapse
of time. and the other specific require
mcnts named therein.
The Sudge took the papers In the
case. and II is supposed will render his
decision in the morning.
