e~ Test Of the Moon Law 50

! This was decided yesterday fol
lowing conference between Attor.
ney General Ccsson and ATTORNEY
/ VIII E. Johnston of Ida Grove.
Berger was arrested Saturday in
Sioux City. The sole charge against
/ him was that he was operating a sa-
| loon in violation of the Moon law.
Sioux City has 1928 saloons and is
entitled to but AZ underline Moon
law, if the statefs contention is cor
rect. He has instituted habeas cor
pus proceedings to secure his release
from custody. The hearing will be
held Thursday of this week and it
will be the start of the test case.
Thousands Of dollars of saloon
property are involved in this action
All over the state there has been lit
igation in the courts over the Moon
law.
In some! cities it has been held to
mean that existing licenses were TO
continue in effect until the holder of
the license should give it up or lose
ii through violation of the law, this
despite the fact that at the time there
may have been more than one saloon
to each 900 inhabitants.
The state and the anti-saloon
forces have contended that the law
required the council to cut down the
number of saloons to one to each
l, 900 population, the persons secur-
ing licenses last to be cut off in or
der until the number had been re-
duced TO that required under the
Noon law.
In all the proceedings thus far
brought in the courts over this ques-
ton there is no prospect of an i'm
mediate appeal TO the supreme court
Both sides believe that the question
should be settled Immediately and
once for all. Hence the attorney
general has agreed to push the test
case. By using the Sioux City case
an appeal can be perfected and pre-
scented 20 the supreme court in Sep
TENDER.
If the state should be successful in
the action, great loss will be occa-
stoned to saloon men all over the
state. Some cities almost will go
dry.
In many municipalities city coun- |

were good and could be renewed /
without violating the Moon law, re- /
issued licenses TO old permit hold |
ers all in one resolution. On many |
instances the number of licenses thus I
issued in the same resolution was in
EXCESS of one saloon to 1000 popu-
lation. Hence If the state wins II
is claimed that all the licenses thus 4
granted will be invalid, there being 1
no way to distinguish which of the /
licenses were granted first.
While the main question In the
Sioux City test case<will be whether
titles must cut down the number of
saloons 10 one TO each 900 popula-
ion, IL Is possible that the question
II the constitutionality of the act
nay be raised incidentally.

laI bin passed the senate and went

: Nonsense was the answer, ''wo-
man dresses for the approval Of man;
TO win the admiration of some par
| ticular hero, or to keep him after
he admits he is won, for the creature
must be won over anew every day"
Now there is no dress so convinc-
ing in its appeal to man as the sim
| pie white gown of immaculate fresh
ness. Clad in spotless white, the
waistline belts neat and trim, all
fastenings meeting with great exacti-
tude, collar faultless and gloves
above reproach, even the plain wo-
man is a radiant vision. In a gay
throng she will overshadow all the
pale blues and pinks and tans of
other gowns. Parenthetically speak
ing Of plain women, every man will
tell you that even a homely woman
who is exquisitely neat and fastid-
iously careful in dress is more at
tractiye than a frumpy beauty.
But leaving the woman out of the
question altogether, if you had seen
the Fifth avenue parade give way
to a dainty bit of femininity in white
linen, white canvas shoes, white
gloves, white linen parasol, white
lace veil charmingIy draped over a
white chip poke, and last, but not
least, a white linen handbag, you
would have realized two things.
First, that it wasn't a matter of per-
sonality for you didn't see the face
under that scoop and parasol, but
that the impression was made solely
by raiment; and secondly, that this
very raiment is present possibility
to you. Get the correct cut and go
ahead. you can't go wrong. Graf
ification in your success will repay
you many times for the effort. The
simplest design in white is just as
effective as the overturned "crea-
ton"
While so eminently attractive
white is the least expensive of all
summer wear, because it is washable.
The shops are filed with inexpensive
lingerie goods in many new weaves.
There are beautiful cotton crepes, ba-
tistes, lawns, mulls, nets, muslins
and linens of all weights Trim /
mings in white range from the still |
popular Irish crochet. in bands, but |
tons, collars and cuffs to all-linen
laces and cotton limitations, embroi- |
deries, cords, gimp braids, edgings, |
founcings, beltings, sashes, etc. The !

over to the house, the house commit
| tee having it in charge tackled on
! seven amendments. The records of
| the house show, it is said, that all
| seven of these amendments were
adopted by the house and made a
part of the act. Yet, it is claimed,
only five of these amendments were
reported back to the senate, and on
ly five were acted upon by the SEN
ate, the other two losing out some
where along the line. There is a
possibility that the validity of the
act may be questioned because of
this alleged error.
Every indication is that the Sioux
City court room will be filled with
legal lights when the test action is
called up. The attorney general will
be represented in person and by
County Attorney Jepson of Wood
bury county. II. II. Sawyer and At
torney A. NJ. Havner of Des Moines,
Anti-Saloon league attorneys, will al
so be on the job, it is stated. For
the defense Attorney VIII +. John
ston of Ida Grove and the law firm
Of Henderson & Freibourg will ap-
pear.
The same question that will be
presented to the court in Sioux City
was up in the Polk county district
court two weeks ago when the Des
Moines city council endeatCred TO
grant licenses in excess Of one to
900 population. Under the one
saloon to 900 population ratio the
