of the law without effective hindrance,
but we have only to adhere to the law
as we find it, 1t is proper to add that
all these cases under the authority of
which this appeal is disposed of have
been disposed of by a DIVIDED court.
The dissent of Justices Harlan, Gray,
Waite, Shiras and Brown is supported
by very persuasive reasoning and great
weight Of authority, but whatever we
think of the comparative merits of the
arguments employed, we are in duty
bound to follow the authoritative pro-
nouncement of the court whose decision
upon this and kindred questions is final.
Yielding to those presidents, we are
constrained to hold that the transaction
set out in the agreed statement of facts
comes within the definition of interstate
commerce, and that as such 1t cannot be
made punishable under the laws of the
state"
The proposition was strongly urged
by the state that the order being made
for shipment of this liquor by express
to be paid for on delivery here, makes a
sale within the state and therefore
avoids the claim 1T was an act of inter-
state commerce. This, the supreme
court says, is not sound. The question
whether 1t was an act of interstate COM
merce sis not, we think, determined by
the place where the title to the property
passes to the purchaser. The defendant,
it should be remembered, is not charged
with the ottense of selling the liquor.
The act for which he is sought to be held
to criminal liability is the soliciting and
taking of the order, and if liable at all,
his ottense was complete the moment
the order was obtained, even though
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1902-05-22

his principal had never completed the
sale thus negotiated. 1t is therefore for
the purposes of this case immaterial
whether the title passes to the pur.
chaser when the property was delivered
to the express company for transporta-
ton or when it reached Its destination
and was paid for. The one question is,
as we have before said, whether the
taking of the order under the circum-
stances was part of transaction Of
interstate commerce. Upon that prop
osition we are compelled to hold in the
affirmative"

SWEEPING LIQUOR DECISION,

SUPREME COURT HOLDS AGENTS FOR
LIQUOR HOUSES CAN TAKE ORDERS.
A large section of the mulct law was
knocked into fragments by decision of
the supreme court last Thursday, in
which it was held that the taking of
orders for the purchase, shipment and
delivery of intoxicating liquors to be
sent into the state comes under the
definition of interstate commerce and is
therefore exempt from punishment as
an infraction of state law.
The decision is sweeping one, and
the effect of it is to open wide the doors
to the soliciting and accepting of orders
for shipment and delivery Of liquors by
vendors living outside the state. Liquors
delivered in thus can be interfered with
legally only when they are in the hands
of a party in Iowa who sells or keeps
them for sale unlawfully. A number of
suits are pending in different parts of
the state in which the same question is
at issue and these are virtually disposed
of by this decision.
The case decided yesterday is that of
the state of Iowa appellee VS.. Pat Hama.
ply appellant, an appeal from the JET
ferson district court, +. w. Eichelberger,
judge. The defendant was convicted in
the trial court of soliciting, taking and
accepting an order for the purchase, sale
and shipment of Intoxicating liquor.

filled by the shipment of the liquor by

Carr and shipped 9. o. D. 1t was
agreed that at the time the order was

SINGLE QUESTION INVOLVED

SINGLE QUESTION INVOLVED.
The opinion reversing the trial court
is written by Judge Weaver. Conceding
the facts as shown by the record, the
court says the zone question raised by
the appeal is whether such transaction
comes within the definition of interstate
commerce, and is therefore exempt from
punishment as an infraction of the law
of the state. This involves an inter-
probation and application of section s,
article l of the constitution of the
United States"
The court says it is well settled that
the business of drumming or soliciting
orders for goods to be shipped from one
state to another is legitimate feature
of interstate commerce and cannot be
hampered or restricted by license, tax
or other restrictions imposed by state
or MINOR municipality. 1t then says the
right of the defendant to take the order
in controversy for shipment from
another state is beyond the power of
this state to prohibit or punish unless it
can be held that the character of the
shipment brings it within the category
Of acts the state may prohibit through
inherent police power without violation
of the constitutional provision referred
to.
The court then sets forth that in Bow
man VS.. Chicago & Northwestern Rail-
way Co., 125 U. S., SIS, it was held that
though the state may, through its police
power, forbid the buying and selling of
Intoxicating liquor within its iurisdic.

mate subject Of commerce and trade in
the world of business, and as such inter-

toned in which the federal supreme
court holds this view. 1t is cited that
while the state may prohibit manufac-
ture and sale, the federal supreme court
holds that sup to such time as imported
| liquors have arrived at their destination
and become mingled in the common
mass Of property in the state, the state
has no power to interfere by seizure OF
any other action in prohibiting importa-
ton and sale by the foreign or non.
resident importer" To meet the diff.

so.called "Wilson act" was enacted pro.
viding that intoxicating liquors shipped
into state "shall, upon their arrival in
such state, be subject to the operation
and effect Of the laws of such state to
the same extent and in the same man.
