BOOZE SOLICITORS
SPECULATION AS TO coNsTlTi-
TuTIoNALITY OF ACT PREVENT
ING SOLICITING OF LIQUOR Or
DERs. III.

Fargo Forum: The senate bill pro-
hibiting the soliciting Of liquor orders
in North Dakota which recently passed
the house, is unconstitutional, accord
ing to The opinions Of leading members
of the bar. If the bill is signed by
Governor Burke and thus becomes a.
law, brewery firms which bave been
accustomed to send their representa-
tives out to every part of North Dako-.
ia for the purpose of taking orders for
booze for future delivery, will have to
"rest on their oaths,' 2 fguratively
speaking, and wait for the orders to
come in-at least this will be the stat
us of affairs until the supreme court
makes a ruling, for the liquor dealers
claim they will take the law to the
highest court in the land.
Prominent lawyers who have given
the matter thought state that I'M
doubtedly the law will be declared un-
constitutional when a test case is
brought to the attention OF the SUI
preme court. The matter is one relat-
ing to the jurisdiction possessed by
q state with reference to the com
merce carried on with an adjoining
state. The law, it is stated, will in
terfere with Interstate. commerce, over
which the national law makers alone
have any powers.
The first arrest made under the re
striction law will be made the basis Of
a test case. r.
Later: It will be noted in the tele-
graph columns the United States SUI
preme court has decided a similar
law in South Dakota constitutional,
so there is little danger Of the North
Dakota law being knocked out.
