liquor to be shipped into this state
He has been placed under S., 200 bonds
for = his appearance before Justice
Walker at Casselton on Friday, July
81, when the matter will be heard.
States Attorney smith appearing for
the state and Attorney Callahan Of
lCasselton for the defendant and the
co npany he represents, who are back
fof him.
The blank used for taking the or
ders for liquor is,"Please ship subject
to your approval, etc, and it is K
pected that the defense will contend
that the purchase Of the goods is not
completed at the time Of taking the
order for the reason that the order
specifically reads, %"subject to your
approval, " that is, subject to the APP
prevail of the liquor company at st.
Paul. It is to clear up the construc-
ton to be placed upon the North Da-
kota %prohibitory law, in the taking of
orders for liquors to be shipped into
the state, that the defendant and the
company he represents are fighting
the case.
In any event whether the a 8 is
decided for or against the company,
it, will in all probability be taken
through the higher court Of the state,
upon the appeal of the state or the
, defendant. It is a very important
point in the prohibition law and the
. progress of the case will be watched
very closely by the citizens of the
state as we'll as by the liquor jobbers.
