The varsity practice Thursday after
noon showed possibility for a score at
least by the Ames team Saturday. The
reserves were the heroes of the prac-
tice. scoring seven toucndowns and one
place kick on the varsity. Harvey Dye,
OF the reserve, made three touchdowns,
two of them made straight thru the
varsity line and one of them an
eighty-yard run. The reserves found
that the varsity line could be pierced
and they hammered the center con
stantly and in this way made their
touchdowns. Some Of the gains by the
reserves were accounted for by the alb
sence Of several regular men from the
line-up, but the principle reason for the
work by the reserves was their playing
with a life and fire which the regular
players had not.

this city last evening on the charge of
embezzling the banks funds. The

Supreme Court Puts a Quietus
on Sales of Liquor by the
Express Companies
MAY STOP THE c. Q. o. BUSINESS
Tho Decision Will Aid the Anti Saloon
lists in tho Enforcement Of Prohibi-
1 tion-Two Cases Involving the Same
Points Dse;ded-Judse. Dewey and
Rurnham Reversed.

Des Moines, Oct. S1.-The supreme
court yesterday put II quietus on the
sales of liquor at retail by agents Of ex-
press companies to whom liquor is con-
signed C. @. d. from other states. The
court rendered decisions in two cases
in which sales of this kind were ques-
toned. The cases were those of the
state, appellant, VS.. the American Elk
press Company, r. NJ. Coffin and GER
tain Intoxicating liquors and L. 3. Lat
ta, appellant, VS.. the United States Ex-
press Company, C. n. Wilson and F. e.
Lamphere.
The case against the American Ex-
press Company was from the Tama
district and the other from the Wash
ington district
In the Tama county case Judge
Durham gave decision in favor OF
the express company and in the. Wash
3ington case Judge Dewey also decided
in favor OF the company. The supreme
court reyerses the trial court in both
instances.
The effect Of the decisions Is to make
liquor handled G. Q. p. by express COM
panies subject to seizure. In deciding
the case from Tama county the court
said:
1.-THE express company in effect en-
gagged in the business OF selling thru
agents at retail intoxicating liquors
shipped by 1t for that purpose from the
state Of Illinois. This was q mere de-
vice, as It seems to some Of us. to
,evade the police laws of the common
wealth, and that the doctrine OF origi-
raj packages OF Of freedom Of inter-
state commerce does not apply to q
business Of this character"
The Importance Of this decision can
hardly be overestinrated. The Iowa
Anti Saloon league has been engaged,
for some years in prosecuting, or at
tempting to prosecute, express coampa-
MES on the ground they were violating
the prohibttory law by handling liquors
ostensibly as the agents, but really
were selling 1t to consumers In counties
where the mulct law Is now in opera
ton.
The league has been stopped from
prosecutions by the decision OF the low
er court, and has been waiting the de-
cision OF the supreme court on the mat
ter This decision will result In re-
newed activity OF the agents OF the
league, and the express companies
doubtless will be compelled to cease
fobooicn'Yit cmfw c m m
liquors wherever they are de-
tected, as the LIQUORS; may be seized.
