AUTHORITIES
ON CASE
Legal Light Gives His Opinion on the
Jury Case Mentioned Last Evening
and Submits Legal Authorities on
the Question.


The article in regard to the Jury
case at Minneapolis which was ex-
clusively given in The Evening Times
last night has started considerable
comment here and many of the saloon
keepers have different opinions on the
case. One legal light over here wants
to know what doubt there can be as
to the legality of the supreme courts
decision and stated that the question
involved as to whether municipal
courts have jurisdiction over liquor
affairs has been law since 1856 and
further showed many authorities on
the subject among them being the fol-
lowing two: State VS.. Harris, so
Mimi. 1913, and Mankato VS.. Arnold,
Sc MINI. 62. These authorities as
we'll as others state the identical
cases and in the first named the same
city and the same offense and the
supreme court made rulings on them
both. There is no doubt that the SUI
preme court is right is the feeling
among the local business men, and if
the state court is upheld by the fed
eral it will mean the saving of thou
sands of dollars for the state
