TEST OF IowA's MULCT LAW.
Its Validity May Go for Decision to the
Highest Court.

Highest Court.
Sioux City, Ia, Nov. PA. d.
Breuner recently commenced suit to
close up seven saloons here under the
Martin mulct law. The attorney for
the defense now sets up the claim
that the law is in violation of the fed
eral constitution and asks for a trans
fer to the federal court. He bases
the claim on the ground that the law
provides that anyone who violates it's
provisions may be prosecuted Grimm
ally, his stock confiscated and himself
enjoined from engaging in the bust
ness again, and that private individ-
uals may push prosecutions without
the consent Of the authorities.
The defense claims that these things
do not constitute due process of law
for depriving citizens of their property
and that they are thus denied the
right of jury trial for penal offenses.
A ruling of the court may furnish
ground for test of the matter in the
court Of last resort.
