Rothrock, j. w. Malone, A. NJ. Allen,
ID. b. Mott.
In his charge to the jury Judge Prou-
7 ty went over the subjects he is re-
CURED to call the attention of the jury
to especially. In commenting on vio-
lations CT the liquor laws he told the
jury thai he did not want it to burden
itself with Investigations of purely
technical violations. He informed the
jury that If 1t was apparent to them
that the saloon men have been making
"a persistent and honest effort to COM
ply with the law, but had thru 1gnor-
|ance, oversight or forgetfulness been
guilty of a technical violation he wanted
them to ignore the complaints, but
that he did want them to return true
bills against persons guilty Of fagrant
violations.
Judge Prouty called especial ntten-
ton to reports that liquors have been
sold In drug stores in violation Of the
law and told the jurors that he would
invite the public to make complaints
of such violations to him instead Of to
the grand jury and that he would Their
submit the cases to it for it's consider
alton. He said that his reason for this
is that liquors can be sold by druggists
only under permits issued by the court
and that 1t followed if they abused the
privilege that the permit should be for
feited. He said that he wanted the
evidence first that he might forfeit the
permits and that he would then submit
it to the grand jury.

Right of Eminent Domain.

1t appears that the State of Pennsyl-
vania has the power to take charge of
the coal mines and coal roads that oper-
ators have failed to use for the purpo see
for which their charters were granted, II
the following is a correct rendering of a
clause in the State constitution. Art.
XVI, Section Of that instrument reads
"The existence of the right of eminent
domain shall never be abridged or so
construed as to prevent the General AS
sembly from taking the property and
franchise of incorporated companies, and
subjecting them to public use, the same
as the property of individuals; and the
exercise of the police power of the State
shall never be abridged or so construed
as to permit corporations to conduct
their business In such manner as to in
fringe the equal right of individuals or
the general well-being of the State"
