INJUNCTION DISSOLVED AND
MEMPHIS AGAIN A WET CITY

MEMPHIS, Tenn. October 28.-
Declining to assume jurisdiction
and upholding the principle of
states rights" Federal Judge
John E. Mccall late today or
dered dissolved temporary in
junction restraining the continu-
ance in business of ia saloon
keepers of Memphis. Notwith-
standing the declaration of the
Law Enforcement league of Men,
phis, which, through 25 of its
members appeared as complain
ants, that their appeals to state
and local authorities for redress
had been unheeded, Judge Nc
Call held that prosecution thro'
grand jury indictments was the
proper recourse, and was still
open. In answer to the allega-
ton that the constituted authori-
ties of the state were not in SYM
pathy with the prohibition laws
as enacted and had refused to
act on information furnished fur
nisEed, he cited impeachment
proceedings as a method through
which their removal from Office
might be accomplished.
The opinion of Judge Mccall
w3s brief. 1t denied that the
plaintiffs had established the fact
that their constitutional rights,
within the meaning of the four
teenth amendment to the United
States constitution, on which the
litigation had turned, had been
violated and noted that without
this fact being fully proved, con-
troversies between citizens of a
state properly belonged to the
state courts. Further, it is held,
that if the court had jurisdiction
the complainants are not entitled
to relief in a court of equity. If
jurisdiction was taken in the
present issue, it is pointed out,
the federal courts might be ap-
pealed to to enforce any and all
of the criminal laws of a state,
which would be in direct contra
vention to the United States con-
stitution.
Taking every allegation of
the bill to be true" the opinion
continues, ''in substance this
court is asked to enforce the laws
of Tennessee between citizens of
the state, Notwithstanding that
article four of section four of the
United States guarantees to ev-
cry state a republican form of
government.
That Tennessee is amply pro-
vided with such a government is
pointed out in conclusion, and
hence the issue held is not prop
erly before a federal court.
Immediately following the sign
ing of the formal order dissolv-
ing the injunction tonight doors
which have remained closed since
Saturday were re-opened, busi-
ness was resumed, and Memphis
was as wet" as ever.
1t is announced that an appeal
will be taken to the United States
circuit court of appeals at Cincin-
natl.

DExTER's NEW POWER.
Transmission Line from Pittsfield to
Be Completed Sept. IS.

Dexter. Me. Aug. 9.-(Special Work
pole line from Pittsfield to Dexter by
the Central Maine Power Co. of Water
vile. which now controls the electric
lighting and power business of Augusta
and the other towns and cities in the
Kennebec valley. and which recently &C
quired the Dexter Electric Co of this
town.
The new transmission line is expected
to be completed by the middle of Septem-
Der The fact that the new company
has actually begun work on the new
line is welcome news to Dexter people.
The town has been in sad want of cleo
trio power while the patrons who use
electricity for lighting purposes have
been obliged to be content with lights
until midnight.
Soon after the new company assumed
control of the local plant two months
ago announcement was made that better
service would be given the local patrons.
A few weeks ago the management an
nounced that all-night service would be
given after August Is. No formal an
nouncement has been made of the in
tended construction of the line from
Pittsfield, but the fact remains that
actual work began Monday morning from
the Pittsfield end.
With the coming of the foreign power.
4-hour service will be furnished here
and the new company will be in a po-
sition to furnish almost unlimited power
to local manufacturers.

The Modern Figure
How to Regain Beauty Of Form.

The vagaries of Fashion are great
trial to ladies inclined to overstoutness;
but it is a great mistake to go in for
physical repression in the shape of spe-
cial stays. Fasting and violent exercis-
ing are also dangerous. One very soon
becomes limp, depressed and sallow of
complexion when such methods of getting
thin are adopted. There is absolutely no
necessity to study dietetics or deprive
ones self of wholesome rest and bodily
comforts.
The following is a prescription which
will restore beauty of form without any
sacrifice of health or strength. Any
druggist will make it up for you or sup
ply the harmless ingredients. viz: " OF.
Marmola, AZ OF. Fluid Extract Cascara
Aromatic. and 81 OF. Peppermint Water.
The dose is one teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
Don't be afraid of good appetite. es-
pecially as the digestive system will be
much benefited by this simple treatment.
Indeed, the whole body is beautified. and
the reduction of weight occasions no
wrinkles. The skin and complexion are
rebeautified
