THE Supreme Court Of Iowa has
declared the mulct law constitutional,
and reversed the ruling OF the lower
court. The law passed as a conpro-
mise measure between license and
prohibition. Under its provision pro-
hibition became the general law Of
the State, but upon the petition of a
majority OF the voters of the cities of
over 5000 population, and of 65 per
cent. OF the voters of the counties
having no cities of that Size, city
councils and township authorities may
infiict a mulct tax of 5000 and up
wards per annum upon places where
liquor is sold, and the payment of this
tax shall be bar to prosecution
under the prohibitory law. The
opinion by Justice Brewer received the
assent of five Republican members OF
the court, while Justice Kline, the
Democratic member filed dissenting
opinion, in which he declared the law
unconstitutional and a bold attack
upon the integrity OF representative
government.
