WILL TEST THE LAW.
Cleveland Saloonkeepers Attack the
Validity of the 5rannock Local op-
finn 4 au


Cleveland, July 15.-The saloon
keepers of this city. in the person of
one of their number, have begun a
suit to test the constitutionality of the
Brannock local option law which was
passed at the last session Of the leg
islature. The law gives ~ residents
of any portion of the city the right to
call an election and vote upon the ex-
pulsion or retention of saloons within
the district. In the dozen or more
elections held in this city thus far in
conformity to that law the "drys"
have won a large majority.
Yesterday Judge Babcock granted a
temporary restraining order to Carl II.
Dietz. a saloonkeeper whose place of
business is within a district voted
dry" a few days ago. The city clerk
is enjQined from promulgating the re-
suit of the election. thus multiplying
the outcome until the court has passed
upon the constitutionality of the law.
Under the law saloons must close 80
days after an election has decided
against their presence.
The petition cites n number of rea-
sons for holding the law to be un-
constitutional. among them being that
the law requires duties of common
pleas judges that are not judicial: !:
| that there arc no such places as resi-
dence districts defined by law; that II
is a criminal statute because II at
tempts to prohibit violence in certain
territories composed of not less than
300 or move than 1000 voters; that
evil results from the liquor traffic
would be be as great in districts con-
tanning 299 voters as in one contain
ing 800 voters and the people of the
smaller district have no voice regard
Ing the carrying on of the trafiic-an
unequal right; that lines Of districts
do not conform to any political sub
division and are arbitrary; that cleo
tions are not held in the usual places
of voting: that it Injuries n saloon
keepers business.

necessary, be carried to the supreme
colrt of the state

Lincoln, Neb., July 15.-w. j.
Bryan yesterday made public the fol-
lowing statement relating to the dem
ocratic platform adopted at st. Louis:
The plank on Imperialism is posi-
tive. strong and satisfactory to the en-
tire party and this question becomes
the paramount issue of the campaign.
The tariff plank is good. but it was
made so on a close vote in the com
mittee and largely against the oppo-
sition of Mr.. Parker's adherents. The
plank which was voted down favored
"a wise, conservative and businesslike
revision. made with due regard to
existing conditions" The committee
thought that these qualifying words
| emasculated the plank and left it so
weak as to give no hope to tariff re-
| formers.
The antitrust plank is infinitely
superior to the republican plank and
with a president who desired to de-
stroy the trusts would be a sufficient
| plank, but as this trust plank was also
substituted by the full committee,
there is reason to fear that il may not
be in keeping with the ideas of the
candidate.
The labor plank is all that could be
desired. II declares against govern
ment by Injunction: ii favors arbitra-
ton and the eight hour day, and de-
nounces the methods that have been
| resorted to in the Colorado strike, but
as these planks were added in the full
committee, some uncertainty exists as
to the candidates position.
On the whole the platform is good
From a western standpoint its great
est defect is that 1t makes no mention
of the money question. An attempt
was made to secure a plank opposing
the melting of the silver dollar, oppos.
ing the asset currency and branch
banks, and expressing a preference
for the United States note (ordinarily
known as the greenback) over the
bank note, but having refused to put
in a gold plank, the committee was
not willing TO have any phase of the
money question alluded to. While
the motion to reaffirm the Kansas City
platform was voted down, there was
a considerable vote in favor of its
reaffirmation and the western mem.
bers of the committee. together with q
few from the south. stood together
and secured enough changes in the
platform to make IL worthy of the
support of the party.
