Corporations Out OF Saloon Business.
According to Attorney General H.
w. Byers the business of buying and
selling intoxicating liquors as a bev.
erage in Iowa is unlawful. The attor-
ney general rendered this decision
in connection with another one that
corporations had no right under the
laws of this state to engage in the
liquor traffic. 1t was In reply to the
application of Sioux City corpora
ton to issue stock to members in
wholesale liquor business. The at.
torney made the decision to the
executive council at a meeting held
at the capitol.
The Cooperative company Of Sioux
City applied for authority to issue
stock, this application being necessary
under the Peterson act, which was en-.
acted by the state legislature to pre-
vent corporations from issuing stock.
The attorney general cited the
executive council to section 1907 Of
the Iowa code, which provides: "Any
number of persons may become incor-
porated for the transaction of any
lawful business"
He further cited section 1882, which
makes it unlawful for any person,
except permit holder, by himself.
clerk, servant, employee or agent to
sell or keep for sale in this state al.
cohol, ale, wine, beer, spirituous, vim.
GUS and malt liquor.

lows: $50 far as it relates to the
mulct tax nothing shall be in any way
construed to mean that the business
of the sale of Intoxicating liquors is
any way legalized." When, however.
certain conditions are complied with
no proceedings may be maintained
against the person who has paid the
mulct tax.
The Cooperative company of Sioux
City, by its articles, is organized to
buy, sell and deal in beer, wine and
liquors.
General Byers holds:
1--WE have then corporation organ
lied for the sole and only purpose Of
buying, selling and dealing In intoxi.
eating liquor and the questions involv.
ed in your executive councils inquiry
are:
q. Is the business of buying and
selling intoxicating liquor in Iowa, by
persons other than rssistered phar.
macists, lawful business.
20. If lawful because of the so.
called mulct statute, does that act
when considered with the general
ctatiItp prohibifipr ba cole of ;ntox;
eating liquors, authorize corporations
to engage in that business?"
Il think not
The attorney general summarizes
as follows:
There is, in my opinion, nothing in
this decision warranting the claim
that the business of buying and sell.
ing intoxicating liquors as beverage
is lawful business within the term
unlawful as used in section 1907 OF
the code Quoted in the foregoing).
All that can be claimed for it is
that sales made under certain re-
strictions and conditions are laWfui
to the extent that the person making
them is exempt from the penalties
Of the general prohibitory statute,
and that contracts made in good faith
FOR the use OF premises in which to
operate a saloon under the mulct law
may be enforced.
In any event it is clear that the
legislature in the adoption of the
mulct statute never intended that
corporations should operate saloons
or engage in the business of buying
and selling intoxicating liquor under
its provisions.

Railroads Carry More Passengers.

Eight of the fairly representative
railroads of Iowa enjoyed a net gain
of S3S3,057 in passenger earnings in
Iowa in the year ending Jan. /, 1908.
Half of the year included in these
figures the railroads charged but
cents a mile and issued comparative.
ly few passes.
For the same year the same eight
railroads showed falling off of gross
earnings of about $3S6,000.
The conclusion has been reached
by those who have examined the
figures and have knowledge Of the re-
duction of train service by the rail.
roads that the 2-cent fare law has
greatly benefited the railroads as well
as the people.
In view of the lawsuits which were
undertaken recently in federal court
and which may be revived at any
time with a view to having the 2-cent
fare law set aside, the reports of the
railroads are of extreme Importance.
The report of the Minneapolis & ST.
Louis shows loss in passenger earn
ings of $21 900, but the Iowa Central
shows an increase of $500. The
Great Western shows an increase of
$4,000. In the meantime the Iowa
Central shows an actual increase in
net earnings of $4,000, although the
other two roads show falling off.

Forty-eight petit jurors and twenty
six grand jurors were drawn for the
