UPHELD THE "JUG" LAW.
Supreme Court Passes Upon Statute
Regarding Sale OF Liquor.

tiViti OdiJ.
The supreme court has held eonstitu-
tional the law passed by the last legis-
lature forbidding, except by licensed
agents, the sale of liquor in less quaint
ties than five gallons to unlicensed per-
sons or druggists.
The law is what is known as the jug
law" and was the product of the Ram
sey county delegation i'll the house,
James r. Hickey introducing it. 1t was
alleged that it would aid in suppress
ing the festive boot logger"
While uph6lding the law, the supreme
court does not allow the occasion to pass
without some criticism, and ii is direct
ed at the general construction and
phraseolosy of the act. Justice Elliott
wrote the opinion, and says:
ut is doubtful whether SO brief leg
islative enactment ever contained more
bad grammar or greater number of
verbal inaccuracies 1t is crude In con
struction and awkward in phraseology."
The request for an Interpretation of
the law came to the court from Duluth,
where Louis Patterson was arrested for
its violation. He attempted to secure his
release by writ of habeas corpus, and,
when this failed, appealed to the SUI
preme court. The lower court is affirmed.

GARDEN CITY POSTOFFICE.
One CORRESPONDENT Says McCleary
Hasn't Delivered the Goods.

Garden City, Mimi, Oct. 81. To the
Editor of The Free Press: I see by
yesterdays issue of your paper an item
headed, Garden City Muss," and closes
by saying that Mr.. McCleary is not
Quitting in" Now the truth is Mr..
Church is liked by 90 per cent of the
patrons of this office and the other 10
per cent are trying to take away his
little income and give it to a much
younger man. Some for political rea-
sons. some for spite, and some just to
please the other fellow. | don't think
there is doubt but what Mr. Me-
Cleary did promise the post office and
has done all in his power to keep his
promise, but | do think any man of Mr..
MeCleary's supposed intelligence, that
will barter an honest old mans living
away for a very few votes against the
best wishes of 90 per cent of the patrons
of the office had certainly ought to have
his passport delivered to him in No
vember, 1906. 1t is easy for man to
fool part of the people part of the time,
but hard to fool all the people all the
time. Mr.. MeCleary has certainly made
a great mistake in this instance. Yours
respectfully, A patron of the Garden
City Post office

BLEACHeS THE BLACK.
Stay in Missouri jail Turns Negro
Complexion to White.

Macon, Mo-, Oct. 27.--A new horror
has developed from the distressing con-
ditions III the local Jail known as "The
Ruins 1t bleaches negroes white.
When he first detected this, Sheriff
Graves smiled at it, but he doesn't see
the joke now. He has got full house
of Senegambians, ostensibly held for
crap-shooting, but in reality taking
treatment for their complexion.
In moment of carlessness the sheriff
stated that when he took Frog Eye
Davis down for a couple of years SO
iourn at the pen, the warden had asked
him whether the prisoner was "eolored
or plain"
The Macon officer looked closer at the
man with whom he was parting, and fol
the first time observed the mulatto's
complexion had lightened so as to make
his race in doubt. The SLOUGH hat hiC
the kinky locks, which had been un
IafTected by "The Ruins"
On arriving home the sheriff noticel
Lacy Williams, one year man, ant
George Poe, chicken expert, had turn
Jed distinctly pale under no more excit
ing cause than the darkness. When tn,
news got down to the Alabama Goa
camp the southland negroes began plead
ing guilty to crap shooting, even befor,
they were questioned about it. Tn,
sheriff let fifteen come in and then closed
up shop.
