Mr.. HOOKER ON THE COUPON
LAW
Ocala, Fla, Aug. 10, 1913.

10 the EdlIO1 OcaIa Banner:
AS nearly all of the merchants in
the county are interested in the con-
struction to be placed upon that
clause of the revenue law just passed
by the legislature which purports to
impose a tax of $3.50 upon all mer-
chants who give coupons with the
goods they sell, and as / am getting
many inquiries about the matter, the
public would perhaps be interested to
know that the merchants of Jackson
vile are now preparing to test the
validity of the law by some proceed
ing in the United States court.
Several weeks ago our collector,
Mr.. Colbert, called on me for an opin-
ion in the matter, as the attorney rep
resenting the county commissioners,
and / advised him that, in my opin-
ion at least some of the provisions of
that law were invalid, or would be
held invalid if properly tested in the
courts.
l really think that very few of the
merchants realize how vitality they
are interested in the law in question,
as if the letter of the law is adhered
to, it would practically revolutionize
the mercantile business.
Under that law, strictly speaking,
man could hardly sell goods that
were guaranteed under the pure food
and drug act without first obtaining
a license that would cost him $3.50.
The druggist would probably be re-
CURED to pay a $3.50 license to sell
each kind of drug or patent medicine
that contained any kind of guaran-
ty, which would of course make the
license fees of an ordinary druggist
run up into many thousands of dol
lars. 1t would apply in the same way,
but perhaps to less degree, to the
grocer, and to some extent even to
other merchants.
AS / construe the law, the ordinary
dry goods merchants who sell any ar
ticle of wearing apparel, such as
socks, or any other article, which is
guaranteed by the makers, would be
liable to prosecution for violation of |
the law if he did not pay the $3.50.
l simply state these facts for the
information of the public, in order
that they may know that it is propos-
ed to test the validity of that law,
and l have already advised Mr.. Col
bert, the tax collector in this county, |
that, inasmuch as it was practically |
impossible for him to enforce the law |
impartially as to all persons coming |
within it's terms, and inasmuch as |
felt sure that the validity of the law !
would be tested in the courts in 9TH |
er parts of the state at some early |
date, considered it best for him not |
to undertake to enforce the law at all |
for the present. / do not know what !
course Mr.. Colbert will adopt, and |
simply make this statement, as many |
are making inquiry of me
about the matter.
Yours very truly,
VIM. HOOKER.

INSTITUTE OF 1913
is NOW HISTORY
Cavalier County Teachers Spent a
Very Pleasant And Profitable
Week in Langdon

Last weeks institute of teachers OF
Cavalier county opened with an enroll
ment at the afternoon session on Mon
day of 80 teachers, which by Wednesday
morning had its full quota of 1lO in
attendance. Co. Supt. Sullivan had all
the details for the weeks program we'll
in shape for F. l.. Whitney the con-
ductor and Miss Antoinette Sanderson,
IN charge of the primary work. We'd
nesday the routine work of the institute
was given pleasing variation when the
attending teachers we're addressed by
State Supt. E. j. Taylor, in joint session
at meeting with the school officers,
who were here the two closing days of
the institute to the number OF 70, every
school district in the county having its
representation. The special lecturer,
secured by Co. Supt. Sullivan for in
stitute week was j. Adams Puffer, of
Boston, Mass, public speaker of
national reputation along educational
lines. The subject of agriculture,
which nowadays is finding its proper
place in the curriculum of school work
was treated by E. D. Stewart, manager
of the Langdon experimental farm and
j. w. Haw and Th, H. KristjansoD,
better farming experts of this county.
Others who locally did their share in
maintaining interest in the weeks
program we're Field Deputy Superin-
tendent Boyd, of Hannah; Miss Ethyl
Mcknight, director of music and draw
ing and Miss Bertha Young, OF Mazda,
with her pnpils in a demonstration of
class work. The annual institute of
teachers of Cavalier county held in
Langdon last week can very properly
be summarized as the most successful
in the history of the county and reflects
great credit to the untiring efforts put
forth by Co. Supt. Sullivan and her
co-workers.
