 No Searching Homes.
 BirIningham Ledger. t.a. sss4.-s Assa
 The Supreme Courts decision that homes cannot be searched al will for AS b0gsa8 IAIlHGatAOH or Luo Ia =. tlonal constitution, but 1t is timely. When enthusiasts get busy they are apt to forget the rights of others.
 To allow officials to search a mans home, at will, or on the oath of any man. Is to deprivesa man and his fam Fly of all the rights of a home. A home could be searched every night, or twice night, if any enemy wished it, unless the home were protected.
 It has been proposed to have an armed constabulary in this State to en- force one law and the very idea spread terror over the state. It was thought no home would be safe if it's owner had an enemy, even political enemy.
 Judge Mayheld's decision removes that terror to a great degree. for 1t guarantees the homes of the State, even from the officials of the State. If they should be created for political pur- poses. It notifies the people that any law permitting constables or anybody else to search homes. under pretense of looking for liquor, will be declared un- constitutional by our own Supreme Court and not compel the appeal to the Federal courts, for an Injunction against the enforcement of such law The decision gives confidence for the future and stamps out that abominabls idea of special constabulary.
