TO SECURE LICENsL
The Question Must be Voted
upon Each Year

Speaking of the recent decis.
ion of the supreme court on the
license question wherein the
court holds that an affirmative
vote must be had each year
before a city or town has author
ity to grant license, the Argus
Leader quotes the law and says:
The case hinges principally on
section %, chapter Is of the laws of
1897. constituting section 1856 of the
chapter l66 laws of 1908. The part
in question reads as follows: CAT
the annual municipal election held
state for general municipal purposes
that of granting permits to sell intoxi-
eating liquors at retail within the COR
porate limits of such township, town
or city shall be submitted to the legal
voters thereof upon petition signed
by twenty five legal freeholder voters
of such township, town or city thirty
days before election, which petition
shall state that vote is desired upon
such question and if a majority of the
voters of such township, town or city
shall be in favor of such sale of in
toxicating liquors at retail the cor
porate authorities thereof shall grant
permit in accordance with the provis-
ions of this act, but if majority of
the voters shall vote against such
sale, no such permit shall be granted
This provision the court says is not
intended to give license privileges
beyond one year, as the provis ion
calls for the granting of permits for
the ensuing year" and makes no pro-
vision other than that, The conten-
tion that when the permission to grant
licenses to a town is once given, it
holds until an unfavorable vote on
the question has been taken, is not
considered tenable under the law.
The question will necessarily
have to be brought up for a vote
in Milbank by those in favor of
license at the spring election,
and it will be we'll for our people
to get ready to meet the issue
squarely.

Little Ch,nos ~ An Independent Defuc'
cratic Ticket in Brooklyn.


All tho active Democrats in Brooklyn
who are fighting Senator MoCarren and
recognize James Shevln as their leader
are strongly opposed to any movement
looking to the running Of independent
Democratic candidates on tho local ticket.
They propose to make their fights at the
primaries and abide by the result. The
extreme opponents Of McCarren In the
Brooklyn League Of Democratic Clubs
are threatening to put local ticket Of
their own In the field, but 1t Is belie they
will be overruled by the more conservative
members and that the contest for the
borough Presidency and the county offices
will be fought out on party lines.
Senator McCarren yesterday made this
comment on the situation:
Il am not looking after the malcontents.
They can do as they please. This is free
country, and II they want to nominate a
ticket nobody can stop them. The people
decide matters for themselves. These
district fights have been going on in
Brooklyn ever since can remember, and
I don't concern myself with them"
1t Ii understood that Senator MoCarren
will not positively decide on the selection
Of the candidate for Comptroller by the
Brooklyn organization until the return OF

pose not to run again, there may be tussle

NICARAGUA'S PRESIDENT RE.
SENTS AMERICAN OPINION.

State Department Has Two Cases Of Lese
Majestic to Deal With--william G.
Aibers Locked Up and U. 9. Consul
Chester Donaldson Ia Sent Home.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s-Lese majestic
in Nicaragua has given the State Depart
ment an intricate case to handle, which in
wolves not only citizen Of the United States,
now languishing in a Nicaraguan jail.
with all the comforts Of home. but like
wise an American Government official,
whose official head dropped of as the result
OF unpleasant references to President
Zelaya. y.
William C. Albers Of Iowa is the man in
jail and Chester Donaldson Of New York,
American Consul at Managua, will soon
come back home.
The case has been before the State De-
partment for several weeks, but not until
to-day, upon receipt Of a preliminary mail
report from Mr.. Merry, Minister to Mica
ragua, were many OF the details known.
It seems that Albers Ia to have a square
deal and until the result Of his trial is known
it is not likely that any action will be taken.
Primarily the trouble began with the
serving of writ Of some kind upon Abers
who is the representative in Nicaragua Of
Philadelphia mining concern. Abers
resented the writ and in the forceful Ian
guage of true Westener refused to be
served.
Incidentally he heaped maledictions on
the head of the President Of the country.
just what he said is not contained in the
official dispatches, but 1t is presumed by
officials that he merely expressed his heart
felt opinion.
Men here who have been in the Central
American country are inclined to agree
with anything Mr.. Albers may have said:
Relieving as it may have been to the
Iowan to say what he thought, he became
cumbed to arrest. Mr. Merry's note says
that after Abers had opposed the authority
Of the Government IN serving . writ he
hesped insults upon the Executive, zelaya,

finally captured and put in jail. After
he had been locked up ten days without
q trial Mr.. Donaldson, the American Consul
at Managua, appeared. He demanded
Albers's release or immediate trial. APP
cording to the allegations Of The Govern
ment, fell back on forceful language.
Then his exequatur was Cancelled and
he will have to come home. What Mr..
Donaldson said is no more known than are
the exact terms Mr.. Albers used, but it
is presumed that the Iowa and New York
brands of anathema did not differ ma
terially.
A cable from Mr.. Merry to-day said that
Albers was resting comfortably in jail;
that he was allowed to receive his friends;
went home every day or so for few hours,
and had been promised jury trial. He
has hired two good lawyers to defend him.
Possibly he will endeavor to prove that
what he said about the President Of the
country is true,
