Sixteen Stores Under the Ban,
Also the Owners.
SUITS TO BE PUSHED.
j. X. COdding Is Behind the
Temperance Move.
The Lid Is on Tight and Not a
Drop Is Obtainable.

Parsons. Feb. 12.-Injunction suits
have been commenced in district
court here against sixteen druggists
in Parsons. and these injunctions in
clude not only the druggists, but the
owners of the buildings IN which the
drug stores are located, and even the
employees are under the lid that has
been placed on Parsons by Assistant
Attorney General W. P. Talbot. It
is the most complete lid that has ever
been nailed down in this city. and the
only drink man can get at drug
store this morning was mineral wat
er. and even that had to be used for
medicinal or mechanical purposes.
A meeting of some of the druggists
was held and they decided that they
would be good and obey the law.
When they approached Assistant At
torney General Talbot as to what was
to be done, he was noncommfttal, and
checked it up to ]. K. Codding, gen.
eral attorney for the W. C. T. u, and
1t is understood that he is acting un-
der direct order from Attorney Gen.
eral Jackson.
The injunction suits are brought in
district court and will not be heard
until the March term. They are civil
suits, and should the injunctions be
granted there will be penalty,
which any druggist may do his ut
most to avoid The property owners
will also be up against it and the
building will be held for any violation
of the terms of the injunction.
When Codding was here a week
ago he said he was going to start
something and he seems to have kept
his word. He will secure the injunc-
lions, and then If the druggists keep
their word and obey the law they
won't he hurf hut II they. dau't }hera
will be something doing. He holds
that no druggist who wants to obey
the law need be afraid of an injunc-
ton.

NO INJUNCTION FOR CHANUTE.
Judge Finley Refuses to Restrain
Santa Fe from AnnuIIing q Train

Chanute, Kan, Feb. 12--Judge Fin
ley, sitting in chambers here refused
to grant an injunction restraining the
Santa Fe from disseminating the morn
ing passenger to Pittsburg. The appli-
cation for an Injunction came from the
office of the county attorney and was
the direct result Of the concerted ac-
ton taken by the city council, business
men in passing resolutions protesting
against the proposed action of the rail-
road -4rrt545~s z.z.e--sef7 1
Judge Finley admitted that the cause
of complaint set forth in the petition
was a proper cause of action, but de-
clined to grant the Injunction request
ed on ground that 1t was a matter en-
tirely in the hands Of the railway COM
mission and he did not feel that the
judicial power Of this district was JUS
titled in interfering.
The matter will now be taken up
early in the week by the commercial
club and the city council and a for
NAL complaint lodged with the board
of railway commissioners.
