make an offense against the municipality of those acts which are denounced by the law of the state, nor does 1t create the separate and distinct offense of having or keeping liquors and intoxicating bever- ages with the unlawful intent. It can be justified only, if at all, on the ground that 1t sustains some reasonable relation to the prohibition law in the way of pre- venting evasions of that law by trick, artifce. or subterfuge under guise of which that law Is violated. But 1t has no such relations. It undertakes to pro- hibit the keeping in any quantity and for any purpose, however innocent, or in toxicating liquors and beverages in places which are innocent in themselves Under the evidence . keeping with innocent purpose Is as much an offense as keep ing with purpose to violate the law. The ordinance is no more to be sustained than if it had said:
 No man shall keep for his own use intoxicating liquors or beverages in any place where any drinks or beverages, though entirely free of alcohol, If the keeping for one's own use, and with no purpose to violate the law, may be pro- hibited in such places the prohibition against keeping without unlawful purpose may as well be extended to keeping at any place where men are, many or few. with result that vinous, spirituous and malt liquors must indeed be classified with burglars tools, the keeping of which with innocent purpose, we remark. has never been prohibited, lottery tickets, infected clothing, and diseased animals; and the constitutional and legislative recognition of property rights and personal liberty held for naught.
