QUESTIONS ClTYS RIGHT.
Denver Wine Room Case to Be De-
cided by Supreme Court.

Washington. July ga case was dock
eted i'm the United States supreme court
today that is intended 10 test the right of
municipal corporations to prohibit the
sale of intoxicating liquor to females
The case is that of Daniel Cronin vs..
the city of Denver. Cronin is the owner
of a saloon and opened a wine room for
women.
The record shows that he asked for an
injunction to restrain the city from Ell
forcing an ordinance prohibiting the
maintenance of such place for females
asserting that the law is demonstrations
beca use IL dfscFiminateS against women
and also because it deprives him of prop
erty without due process Of law
He contended that he had as much right
to sell liquor to women as 10 men, and
that they have as much right to drink
men.
He also referred to the circumstance
that equal suffrage prevails in Colorado
and argued that since women had beer
given the right of suffrage. they stand OF
the same footing in all respects with men
and hence ARE entitled TO the pursuit Of
happiness and the same rational enjoy
meDt as their brothers" The districi
court upheld this contention. but th'
finding was overruied by the state su
preme court.
