DESPITE EFFORTS
OF EXCISE BOARD

The Excise Board is of the opinion that
the year 1913 would be a finer and better
thing If the can trade" between home
and saloon could be done away with.
They have thus expressed themselves to
the Commissioners with the recommen-
dation that the matter be taken before
the District Committee in the House, and
in this they have had supporters. They
have also met with some opposition.
The Central Citizens Association, in
convention assembled last Sunday, held
that Congress had no right TO legislate
for a mans stomach, and the "groWler
is as safe about the house as any other
household pet.
But the Excise Board has not as yet
had it's way. and II any one wishes to
celebrate the coming OF the new year
with a foaming beaker or can" he may
do so. The general order Of the day will
be punch and eggnog, however. There
will be many private parties.
The Y NJ. c. A. will receive from :

Gil. No. !, Sons OF Jonadab, will have a

BULLITT TO OPPOSE
WRIT FOR JOHNSON
Solicitor General Contends Fighters
Legal Remedy Is BY Error
After Trial.

Solicitor General William NJ. Bullitt,
Of the Department Of Justice, will file
brief in the Supreme Court within the
next few days in opposition to the grant
ing OF a writ OF habeas corpus in the
case OF Jack Johnson. the negro pugilist,
who was indicted In Chicago some time
ago on a charge of alleged violation OF
the white slave law. The Solicitor Gen.
eraI contends that Johnson's legal rem
edy is by writ OF error after trial, in
stead OF by a writ Of habeas corpus be-
fore trial. Mr.. Bullitt asks the court
to deny the writ OF habeas corpus pray
ed for by Johnson's attorney.
johnson was indicted In the United
States District Court for the Northern
District of Illinois on November last
for alleged violation of the white slave
law. He was released on $4,000 bail.
and on November . he filed a petition
for n writ OF haheas corpus, which was
denied. His attorney appealed from this
decision to the United States Supreme
Court, which now has the application I'M
der advisement.
johnson bases his application on two
grounds, namely. that the white slave
law is Unconstitutional, and also that
the bail requirements were illegal. AS
johnson has been released on bail since
the original application for a writ of
habeas corpus. this question has been
eliminated from the case.
