Shows FaIlacy If Ibe Contention That Wine Can Be
 Made Under The Law.

point. with all due respect to him. however, must enter my dissent. both to the premises and to the con- clusions which he seeks to draw.
 The nrst error which he makes is that he gives us no def1nftion of manufacture. but he undertakes to give us some definltions of manufAc- turers which may be . totally different thing. To manufacture is to make by hand or machinery. and this is, the word used In section one of the Con- stitutional amendment. Manufacturer may mean different things. according to the connection in which the word is used. It generally means the busi-' ness of manufacturing, which may include more than single act at all times to be determined by the connec- tion in which it Is used. But the meaning of the term '.manufacture'' is too well settled. both by the decisions and by the photographers to be any longer open to contestation. This distinction is clearly pointed out in the very authority MT. Faith cites. IS and B. Enc. of Law 922:
 In 26 Cyc. 519. the word manufac- ture is defined as follows.
 "(f1 The process of making any thing by art or reducing materials Into q form 1t for use by hand or by machinery;
 "(2) Anything made or manufac- tured by hand or manual dexterity or by machinery"
 As verb the word is defined as meaning ito form by misunderstanding or workmanship. by the hand or ma chinery; to make by art and labor"
 All the dictionaries are agreed on the definition. In Bouveir's Law Dic- t< fo Al o F~fl thing made from raw material by hand or by machinery or by art" A similar definition is given by Webster and wocester. as we'll as by Abbott's Law Dictionary. If there was any doubt about the meaning of the word, 1t would be concluded by the decision of the Supreme Court of Alabama. Chief Justice Stone, in the case of Reggs vs. Edison Electrical Illuminating Com pany, 9s Ala. sss-ss. defines it as fol- lows:
 "The word manufacture" means the making of anything by hand or artiflce.-L & N. R. R. Co. vs. Fulg- ham, s1, Ala. s55. MT. worcesters process of making anything by art, or of reducing materials into form it for use by hand or by machinery" The definition that the word Is given py tAe century Dictlonary iS as tOl- lows: "The production of articles for use from raw or prepared mater ials. by giving these materials new forms. qualities. properties or combi- nations, whether by hand. labor. or macifinery.'~
 The making of wine from grapes or blackherries Is clearly within ev- cry known definition of the word, and Judge Weakiey in his speech at Hunts vile accepted 1t as true. The manu- fracture of vinous liquors is as much within the prohibition of section one Of the amendment as alcoholic or malt liquors. as 1t Is necessarily included, un- der the term other intoxicating bever- ages" In fact. 1t has been held as a matter of law that wine is an .fn- toxicating beverage" If there was any doubt about the meaning. 1t would be excluded by the, terms of the pro- viso which permits, the "sale of alco- hol for medical purposes and wine for sacramentaL purposes under such rekus iatiops as the. e.xleEislatnreae has pre-. seribed or. may thereafter iprescrfbe.', There is no need for this prgviso if the proceeding clause had not includ- cd wine. If there n were any doubt about the meaning of the word used, 1t would be cleared ap by section
