juneau City Council Declares
Habitual Drunkards

Down at Juneau the city council has
been busy proclaiming habitual drunk
ards. When that has been done
il becomes q crime for saloon men to
sell or furnish them intoxicating liquor
in any way.
The question is attracting attention
and causing some controversy, though
it is said the people will sustain the &C.
ton Of the city council.
Commenting upon the matter the Ju-
neau Dispatch says:
"There is question whether the
council can 'siwash' anyone from buying
liquor without first ordaining some sort
of trial before the police magistrate
to convict the party of being habitual
drunkard. Just because some member
Of the council says that man is an
habitual drunkard is no reason that q
mans rights can be taken away and his
name held up to the scorn OF COM
munity. 1t is known in several cases
that parties have been 'siwashed' who
have never been convicted Of being
drink and disorderly."
