A quantity of dead fish, which
were among the first caught last
week when so many fish died in
the river, have been lying on Col
lege street ever since, purifying
and burning in the sun. The gar
bage cart man who comes along
simply chances at them but does
not take them away. In the days
of the Callaghan administration if
a garbage man acted so he would
have been peremptorily "fired."

Of the supreme court In The dispensary
cases was filed tonight. Justices Pope
and Gary declare the law oonstitu-

sents. Justice Gary argues generally
that the regulation of the manufacture
and sale OF intoxicating liquor come
within the police power OF the state.
and that the dispensary IL such a reg
ulation OF tho trafilc that there is no
inhertant right In one to sell liquor.
and that being the case, the state has
right to prohibit the sale altogether,
or to 80 control It as It deems best.
Justice Pope assents to this finding
CHIEF Justice McIver dlsBents and re-
iterates the position taken by him when
