Washington The administration

told callers Monday that the recon,

HINES CASE WILL BE ARGUED EARLY
Appeal Of State From Ruling of Chancellor
Sheeby Set For Feb in Supreme Court.

One of the most important and far
reaching cases, involving the interpre-
tation of a statute of this state, which
has been more widely discussed for the
past four years than any other OF a like
nature, will shortly be presented to the
Supreme Court for its Interpretation.
This is the case styled State. of Missis-
sippi ex mel. Attorney General vs..
Edward Hines Lumber Company ct al,
from the Chancery Court of Pearl River
county. This is case which originat-
ed in 1910, when bill in chancery was
filed by Attorney General Stirling, the
purpose of which was to have declared
forfeited to the state certain lands held
by the appellee corporation in alleged
violation of section S3S of the Code OF
1892 and section 903 Of the Code Of 1906.
1t has been nearly four years since the
litigation was initiated, the proceedings
in the lower court having been delayed
for various causes, and has run through
two gubernatorial administrations and
handled by three attorneys general.

THAT ANTi-LIQoUR BILL.

Discussing the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ANU
liquor bill, passed by the lower house
Wednesday, and now pending in the
senate, the Vicksburg Herald sa vs.:
With all due respect to the wis
dom and the good citizenship of the
sponsors of House Bill No. 5, and
without wishing to censure or croak,
The Herald ventures to doubt il it
fulfills their expectations. Prohibi-
tion, or rather the eradication OF
the drink habit, has made, is max
ing and will continue to make, mark
ed advances in the land. But may
not the movement be checked or
marred by i'll considered zeal-zeal
which in its impatience for reach
ing the goal of total and universal
abstinence, outrages and grinds un-
der foot the innate principle Of per-
sonal liberty? Progressive moral
ideas and issues are not unlike
drawn bow string--if drawn over
taut it is apt to either snap, or
lose elasticity.
The Herald could have cited one strik-
ing instance ofhow drastic legislation
often brings result exactly opposite
that intended. In Alabama the zealou s
prohibitionists, led by professional
reformer employed by the Anti Saloon
League, secured the passage of very
ridgid law that was not at all in accord
with public sentiment. At the first
opportunity Alabama went back into
the "wet" column, and the prohibi-
tionists lost all the ground they had
gained in that state.
The Daily News has no criticism of
the motives behind the Mott May-Lewis
bill. The Mississippians who urge its
passage doubtless believe it will prove
an effective measure, despite the fact
all history and precedent are against
such conclusion. 1t would be well,
however, for the lawmakers to take one
little peep under the chip and they will
find a large e-sized bug nesting there.
The Anti-Saloon League is made up
largely of professional reformers. It's
agents are persons who are prohibi-
tionists for revenue only, and, in many
instances, their past records will not
bear investigation. Watch the trend of
legislation closley, and you will see the
Anti Saloon League trying to get its
own little graft made certain through
the enactment of a statute providing
for the payment TO that organization of
a certain percentage of fines and costs
imposed in convictiers &c. illiei4 gesaii-
ing. The Anti Saloon League never
loses sight OF. revenue, nor does. it ever
pass up an opportunity to claim credit
for real temperance work accomplished
by others.
TIE Mott May-Lewis bill, If declared
after final enactment, is
going to be the most prolific provoking
cause of perjury ever placed on the
statute books in this State. 1t will
bring the drug store back into busine SIS
as a retail liquor establishment, and
fatten the purse of many an unscrupu-
lous physician who will always be found
with pockets filled with ready-made
certificates that liquor is needed for
family use.
If the jealous prohibitionists will not
ssLet Well Enough Alone," then they
must assume responsibility for the con-
