temperance forces, and the Com
monwealth, the temperance news
paper at Waterloo, has guaranteed
financial backing to complete the
test of the law.
Decisions have recently been made
by Indiana judges to the effect that
laws temporizing with the liquor
traffic are unconstitutional because
the business is inherently illegal.
The theory of the decision is that
the legislature cannot establish a bar
by law, against prosecutions for
crimes; it would be as reasonable to
impose bar to prosecutions for sell
ling intoxicants. Two decisions of
this character have been handed
down in Indiana, one by Judge
Samuel R. Artman at Lebanon, Ind,
Feb. 18th, and the other by Judge
Ira W. Christian at Noblesville, Ind,
April 18th.
In April, 1906, the w. G. T. U.
of Black Hawk county instituted in
junction proceedings against the
Waterloo saloons, alleging them to
be nuisances. One Of the cases was
against M. and P. Jackman and
their bartenders. This case is still
pending, This is the case which
the temperance forces, Mr.. Camp
bell and the Commonwealth have
selected to use in testing the consti.
tionality of the mulct law.
The ordinary petition to enjoin
nuisance was filed by the w. G. I.
U. in this case. In their answer to
the petition the defendants admitted
that they sold liquor but pleaded
the bar provided by the mulct law
against prosecution under the pro-
hibitory law.
A demurrer to this answer has
been filed which raises the question
of the constitutionality Of the mulct
law. A prompt decision and quick
appeal are expected, the legal 'ques-
ton, alone, bong involved.
Rev. III. G. Beeman is the nominal
plaintiff in the case. When it comes
on for hearing and submission Mr..
Campbell and the Commonwealth
will be substituted.
The defense will be taken up by
the Iowa retail liquor dealers as
ISOLATION and the brewers organiza-
tons. Attorneys of national fame
are likely to be enlisted in the case
which is the most sensational of re
cent years in Iowa. If the conten-
ton of the temperance forces are
maintained in this case the prohibi-
tory law will become effective in
Iowa at 6nce.-Des Moines Regis

the distance to the nearest trading
point. This is not so; the trade
territory depends upon the enter

after business in the surrounding
country, advertise it in every way
and make good every word of their
advertising, trade will come in from
an ever increasing radius, the town
