THE LAW AND THE
SALE OF BOOZE
iF YOU HAVE A LOCKER AT THE
CLUB you CAN DRINK
LAWFULLY.
THE DRUG STORE SALES
Farmers May Make and Sell Cider or
Wine-The Delivery in the Local
Option Counties.

Inquiries have poured into the at
torney-generals department in a Hood
regarding certain phases OF the new
Warner-Cramton general liquor law
and the search and seizure" law, and
the department is sending out letters
10 many prosecuting attorneys and
municipal officers regarding various
points OF the two acts.
A summary of the opinions given
by Attorney General Bird on the points
of most widespread interest has been
given out. Regarding the search and
seizure" law, which applies only to
local option counties, he says that a
mere order on druggist signed by a
physician to deliver a certain quan-
tity of liquor to a certain person Is
not a prescription. The prescription
should be in the form in which pre-
scriptions are regularly and common
ly written and should specify the man
ner of using the liquor prescribed.
Two important questions were, first:
Can a club have it so arranged that
each member can have locker in
the club rooms and each one have his
key to that locker and own the con-
tents and when all the members or
a part gather together, each go and
take his own liquor and drink it HIM
self? Second, would it be violation
for a hotel keeper at a banquet to
serve liquor brought by the parties
being banqueted and owned by them,
and only served by the hotelkeeper? ?
The encouragement says he regards
1t as doubtful whether the act would
prohibit a club permitting its indi-
yidual members keeping liquor in a
locker, accessible only to the indi-
viduRl member and for his own per-
sonal use. 1t is added that it is doubt
full whether the courts would hold a
hotelkeeper to be a violator who
serves guests their own liquor.
From Livingston county came the
question as to whether a railway COM
pany may deliver liquor from any
point in the state to a point in local
option county, and whether a drayman
delivering liquor to private houses vio-
lates the local option law. 1t is not
thought either the railway or the
drayman can be said to be furnishing
liquor" within the meaning OF the
statute.
Regarding cider, the attorney-gen-
eral says unfermented cider does not
come within the statute and may be
manufactured and sold in any guam
tity. Fermented cider, If made from
fruit grown within the county, may
be sold in quantities not less than five
gallons, and wine may be manufac-
tured in any quantity from fruit grown
anywhere.

During the early days In the pc
riod OF the growth OF the grain crop In
Western Canada, as well as throughout
the ripening and garnering period,
there is yearly growing an increasing
interest throughout the United States,
as to the results when harvest is COM
pleted. These mean much to the thou
sands OF Americans who have made
their homes in some of the three Prov
inces that form that vast agricultural
domain, and are of considerable interest
to the friends they have left behind.

THE POLE QUEST
CONTROVERSY
DIR. COOK CLAIMS A COMPLETE
ANSWER TO ALL PEARY's
CHARGES.
LED A STRENUOUS LIFE.
Returned to the Primitive, and sacri-
feed All the White Mans Comforts
to Win the Goal.

DR.. Frederick A. Cook evinces the
strongest desire to arrive in New
York as quickly as possible. He is
anxious to prove to America the We
racity OF his claims, although the
charges brought against him by Com
mande.' Peary and others do not cause
him the slightest concern. He has a
complete answer, he says, for every
thing.
In reply to a question as to what
answer he would make these charges
Dr. Cook said:
II will not enter into any controver-
sy until / know definitely what has
been brought against me and whence
it emanated. Commander Peary's gen
eral charges do not call for any re-
sponse from me until he gives to the
public as much as / have. He has
given few details Of his journey.
Claiming that he reached the pole on
certain date, without much else.
His accusations are founded pure
ly on statements given him by an
ignorant man, whom | purposely kept
from learning the facts. When land
l will examine the charges and reply
when the proper time comes. Peary's
declaration that he is the only man
who has been TO the pole, still awaits
proof. AS to the affirmation that
Peary has evidence to refute my story,
that evidence is based on the word OF
Murphy, that boatswain. who is un-
able TO read or write.
Il have already expressed my readi-
ness to place my observations before
a committee from scientific bodies,
and the verdict of that committee will
justify my story.
IL have a record of observations
that will prove my claim that l went
to the pole"
This is Dr. Cooks message to the
American people, as he nears the
shores of America on the steamship
Oscar H. The reason for my sue
cess" said Dr. Cook, lis that / re-
turned to the primitive life" In ex-
planning how he sacrificed all the
comforts of the white man, DR.. Cook
said that on one occasion he and his
Eskimo companions, having no thread
to sew the skins of their clothing to-
gether, unraveled their stockings.
This was after their clothing had
been worn to rags in the march, and
it was necessary to provide new cloth
ing.
The party had no eating utensils
and obtained light only from musk
OK fat in a lamp with a wick of dried
moss. Only two matches day were
burned, so precious were they.
Each long winter night was utilized
by Cook in writing. He used a primi-
tive stone desk and lay prone while
at work on his manuscript
Polar bears made exits from Cook
igloos or shelters dangerous at all
times.
Once the Eskimos, going in search
of game, left Or. Cook weaponless,
with the shoulder of seal, food he
was keeping for emergency. Asleep
in his canvas boat with this meat,
the explorer was awakened by bear,
but seizing the runner of sled, beat
the bear off. 1t came back again, but
finally fled.

filed with expectant enthusiasm over
this years prospects. No district was
found which could not boast of fields
of 35 bushels per acre wheat, or SO to
60 bushels per acre oats. and of 40
bushels per acre of barley
1t is not an unusual thing in many
parts of western Canada for a farmer
to have 10000 to 10000 bushels Of
wheat. In the Rouleau district it is
said that there are several farmers
who will have 10000 bushels of oats
any many fields will return one hun
dred bushels to the acre.

DR.. Cook has this TO say: why
should Peary be allowed to make

justice to the world and to guard the
honor OF national prestige, he should
be compelled to prove his own case;
he should publish at once a prelimi-

mine, and let fair-minded people
ponder over the matter.

such he is a hero in Arctic annals and
deserves the credit of long and hard
record. To Peary, the explorer, / am
still willing TO tip my hat, but Peary's
unfounded accusations have disclosed
