SALOONS ARE HIT
in LEE COUNTY
SUPREME COURT RULES THAT IR.
IRREGULARITIES In PETITION
RENDER THEM VOID.

Des Moines, Oct. 21.-Every saloon
in Lee county, outside of Fort Madi-
son and Keokuk is operating contrary
to law, according to a decision handed
down by the supreme court yesterday,
and they must secure new petitions of
consent before they can continue in
business. Judge Banks ruling is re-
versed and the supreme court upholds
the claim of the Iowa Anti-Saloon
league that the statements of consent
are insufficient. H. T. Scott, acting for
the league, brought the action to test
them.
Judge Sherwin, who wrote the opin-
ion, declares that there is no authority
in law for the adding Of additional
names to petition of consent after it
is filed with the board of supervisors.
To allow such proceeding, he says,
would open the door to endless addi-
tions and defeat the very purpose Of
the law. 1t is pointed out that if this
were permissible saloon keeper who
found, after filing a statement Of con-
sent, that it would be insufficient,
might go out and secure enough adj
ditional names to make up the requir-
ed number.
In the Lee equity cases the saloon
keepers filed thirty-three additional pc
titions containing 209 names between
the time the original petitions were
filed and the publication of a notice
of their suficiency by the board Of SUI
pervisors. The supreme, court holds
that none of these should have been
counted. Of the names on the origin
al petitions the court rules that 232
could not be considered because they
did not appear on the 1904 poll lists
and ninety more should have been
thrown out because they were not
identical with the corresponding
names on the poll books. In addition
to these, seventy signers withdrew
from the petitions. Counting out all
these the statements contained less
than the required 65 per cent of the
voters at the last preceding election.
1t is held by the court that the stat
ute requires the statement of consent
to show the date Of each signature and
it is not sufficient to attach an affidavit
stating that all the signatures were Sc
cured within a certain period. The
| court further rules that the names ap
| pearing on the petitions must be iden
teal with the corresponding names or
the poll books and that all names or
| the petition must also appear in the
poll lists if they are to be counted.

sheap Prioea Lower.

Stock Yards. Chicago Oct 25.-Clos-
ing prices for best native sheep and
lambs were 25c lower, while other
kinds declined largely soc. Range offer
ings, which sold to killers were down
mostly Csc. while feeding classes held
about steady. Trade was slow and low
est prices of the week prevailed at the
wind-up. Quality was the poorest in
many weeks, as feeders are rounding
up their holding and shipping them be-
fore the winter, this being an annual
stunt with many sheepmen, as they
have not the quarters in which to feed
them. Range lambs topped at s7.10 and
most good to choice killers landed at
S6.75@7. while feeders reached $3.50,
with some as low as $3.50, bulk s6.50@N
$50. Native lambs ranged at 1880
7.35, bulk S6@7. Range wethers made
s4.35@4.s5, yearlings s4.75@5.5o, and
ewes at s1.50@4.25. Feeding wethers
sold at s4@4.40. year1ings at $4,000
$50 and ewes at s1.75@s.5o. Native
ewes landed at s1@5, bulk s4@4.25.
Wethers sold largely at s4.75 and few
yearlings beat $3.50. Breeding ewes
ranged at S3.75@5.25.

WILL HELP TO ABOLISH
LOW DIVES AND JOINTS
A Bill Passes Senate, which Prohibits
Wholesale Liquor Dealers from Con-
trolling More Than One Saloon.

1t ls argued by friends of the bill
that wholesale dealers have Irres-
ponsible parties in control of many
saloons for which they hold the Ii.
censes, resulting in many cases in
an unlawful conduct of the business.
With the Macbeth bill made a law
wholesalers will be permitted to
hold license TO only one saloon
each, which, it is believed, will do
away with carelessness In conduct
ing the business of the one saloon.
Because it came from the minor
ity side, Democratic senators
thought the bill would not be ac.
capted and were surprised at the
warm welcome 1t received In the
committee of the whole. lts friends
on both sides got busy at once ano
several amendments were Introduc
ed to make 1t stronger measure
Freehafer introduced one section
giving wholesalers holding salooI
licenses sly months in which to dis
pose of this side business.
