ASSERTIONS THAT THE 200 FOOT LAW HAS BEEN
OVERLOOKED By COLONEL MICHELLs DE-
PARTMENT-A CONFERENCE
To nr HELD.

The Law Enforcement Society and tho Citizens
Union have joined forces and will rene" their ei-
forts have the excise law strictly eniorced:
with this end in view a conference VIII be held
this morning at $50 O'Clock IN the office OF ColoneI

may be what his policy VIII be Win reference
to the so-cac1 2C0-foot law.
Az Tribune readers well aware. the Law En-
forcement Society in the early part or the year
made a most vigorous fight for the strict enforce
ment OF the law prohibiting the presence or liquor
stores within 200 feet OF churches or schoohonses.

CHANGED to within the provisions OF the Ia"
tina, there was widespread CONSERVATION and
speedy prospect of the closing up Of about three
hundred places. Then came the INTRODUCTION VI
the Raines bill. It's final passage and the inaugural
ton OF a new system. The liquor men were not
slow TO take advantage Of the changed state OF
affairs In some way the 90-foot law has been
apparently grossly ignored since the advent OF the
new excise regulations. Saloons within 30 feet OF
churches and schoolhouses. which the Law Enforce
mcnt Society had succeeded in closing, nave been
reopencd in many places by their proprietors who
have had no difficulty whatever in getting new
licenses from Colonel Michells bureau
As the 2pO-foot Law Is stil on the statute-books,
the Law Enforcement people seem determined now
10 learn why It should not be made operative
Since Colonel Michel has had the granting or
licenses he has. according to the Law Enforcement
Society issued licenses whenever the necessary
bonds were flied by the applicant holding that
he had no power 10 go behind the record and that
the affidavit of the applicant. backed up by his
bond. was sufficient warrant FOR the Issuance OF
license This IS the bone OF contention now be-
