WHOLESALERS
ZONE IS FIXED
CITYS LIQUOR LAW HELD TO
BE CONSTITUTIONAL
SUPREME COURT SAYS SALES
LIMITED IN TERRITORY
Decision Rendered Causes Much
Anxiety to Dealers Whose Fields
of Operation Lie Outside
of Limits

Persons having liquor interests in
Los Angeles are much wrought up over
the decision Of the supreme court hold
ing to be constitutional the local
liquor ordinance which confines whole
sale liquor dealers to a certain fixed
zone.
Los Angeles wholesale liquor dealers
bitterly have fought the city ordinance
which limits their field of operations,
and it finally was sent to the supreme
court of the state to determine whether
the ordinance is constitutional. me
decision, which just has been handed
down by the supreme court, upholds
the ordinance in question and puts the
whole matter up to the city prosecut-
ing attorney and the police depart
ment.
Just what move will be made by the
city prosecuting attorney, Guy Eddie
toward enforcing the ordinance has
not been decided. Probably the liquor
interests will be given time to comply
with the ordinance before any action
will be taken.
The decision of the supreme court,
declaring constitutional the mooted or
dinance, is of vital Importance to the
liquor dealers and to the public at
est wholesale concerns in Los Angeles
will be affected. 1t will mean probably
a loss of many thousands of dollars to
concerns which are alleged to have
been operating in violation of the
liquor zone law.
ct do not know just what steps |
will take under the recent decision, "
said City Prosecuting Attorney Guy
Eddie. but of course, we will enforce
the law"
Another point of interest in the stu
alton of the local liquor ordinance, and
one which has been overlooked by
many local dealers, is the fact the
license ordinance of 1899, which ex-
copied all wineries manufacturing their
own wine from the zone regulation,
was superseded by an ordinance
adopted in 1908, which made no men
ton of the wineries and which thereby
were placed on the same basis as other
manufacturers of liquor. The revela-
ton of this phase of the situation was
made by Attorney Eddie several days
ago when he was asked by the police
department for information on the sub
iect. Most Of the local wineries have
been operating in ignorance of the
status of the ordinances, and in the
firm belief that wineries were still ex-
cepted.
Many interesting developments in the
local liquor situation are expected in
the next few days as a result of the
recent decision.

as rich and as big and therefore as
profitable to its stockholders as any OF
the great mines of that territory.
In the Santa Maria district, also IN
Arizona, the Manhattan Securities
Company is responsible for the financ-
ing and operation of the big holdings
of the Big Stick Gold Mining company.
A large ore dressing plant with stamp
mill and full equipment has been pur-
chased and is now being freighted in
for installation at the Big Stick. The
veins on which extensive underground
work has been done for some months
past are we'll defined, of comparatively
low grade, but of very great volume,
and in the judgment of mining men Of
the district generally the Big Stick
will develop a large output OF ore
which will be treated at very substan-
tial profit indeed.
Another instance of the application
of thorough business methods to min
ing by the Manhattan Securities Com
pany is seen in the reorganization OF
the old Amalie mine of Paris, Kern
county, this state. A new company,
the Provident Gold Mining company,
was recently formed to purchase and
operate the Amalie. Ample capital has
been provided through the Manhattan
Securities Company to install a new
mill, to push extensive underground
DEVELOPMENT work, and generally to in
crease the output and the equipment
of this we'll known shipper until II
shall be handling in the neighborhood
of 100 tons daily.
The biggest profits made by mining
go to the men who help during the
early days in the development of what
ultimately becomes big producing
NINE These men see their original
investment multiplied frequently scores
of times and sometimes hundreds of
times. Such success. however, only
comes when the actual development
and equipment of the property, as well
as the financing of the company itself
are carried out on sound business prin-
ciples. The administration of a mining
operation in the hands of a group of
experienced and practical business
men, who combine conservatism In
their financing arrangements with
the necessary perseverance and grit
to push forward over all obstacles to
success, is that to which the investor
should look if he expects the substan-
tial returns on his capital which are
fully as possible, and even more so,
in mining today than they ever were.

WHAT is THE CAUSE?

Editor THE CHReNICLE
1t seems that the people of this
country are in serious condition,
so far as their resources for live
lihood are concerned. The cues
tion Of the moment is, what is the
cause of the disturbance and un-
rest which is spreading through
out the country?
Pardon us for the blunt manner
of approaching the subject, but
this is great question, one that
we will have to solve sooner or
later. In order to do this in an
intelligent manner we must first
fnd the cause and then apply the
remedy.
Now, what is the prime cause?
Is the fault in ourselves?
Is the fault in our country?
Is the fault in our law makers?
Is the fault in our government?
Is the fault in something that is
inevitabl and lean not beremedied2 2
These are momentous questions
which should be eprobed to the very
bottom. LIE we can find the cause.
we can easily find remedy.
These are open questions, and
anyone is at liberty to give their
views, based on facts and reason.
Respectfully,

FIRST BLOOD SCORED
BY CARMACK FORCES

The Carmack forces in Marion
County, led by A. Il. Robertson,
j. L. Armstrong and Lawrence Il.
Spears, controlled the Democratic
mass meeting at Jasper Saturday.
A special from jasper to the daily
State press says it was one Of the
largest conventions seen in Marion
County IN many years, over six
hundred people being present.
The object of the convention was
to elect a new Chairman Of the
Democratic Executive Committee,
with power TO appoint the whole
committee, and to choose delegates
tothe Congressional convention at
Chattanooga. The struggle be-
tween the Carmaek and Patterson
forces was sharp and much inter-
est was shown.
The struggle came over the elec-
tion of the Chairman. w. M. Cam
eron of South Pittsburg was elect
ed, defeating the Patterson candi-
date by vote of two to one. The
convention was held in the court
house yard as it overhowed the
courthouse building. Six tellers
and marshals we're appointed by
each side. The Patterson leaders
