loess areas, which cover practically the
eastern half Of the state every farmer,

have been putting on tallow since early

run to market between March LIST and

Case May Go Up.
When seen this morning Il. r..
Brewing Co., in the hearing In Ottum-
wa last summer. said:
II think the case will go to the SUI
preme court of the United States on
the constitutionality Of the Webb-Ken-
yon law. | was primarily interested
in the personal shipment side of the
question: as that was the side repre-
sented IN the hearing in Ottumwa. The
decision Of the supreme court OF course
took out the personal shipment clause
Of the bill so in that part of it we are
really the victors. | have not seen
the opinion, so of course do not know
whether it was passed upon ..-e bur
den of proof or not"
Whitmore Discusses Matter.
G. w. rWhitmOre was interviewed
this morning in regard to the decision
Of the supreme court and he was al
SO of the opinion that the matter
would De carried to the United States
supreme court. Mr.. Whitmore said:
"The effect of the decision will be to
prevent the transportation or shipping
of liquor for the bootleggers' use. A
person may go to the station and re-
ceive liquor for his own use but he
must sign certificate to that effect.
The company"transporting that liquor
is liable to criminal prosecution as
well as injunction proceedings II it
transports liquor for man whom they
believe is using the liquor for illegal
purposes. Parker Parrish and Miller
will undoubtedly carry the case on up
in the court, to the supreme court of
the United States.
THE case, which was a test case,
was brought In order that the rights of
the public, the railroad companies and
the express companies might be more
clearly defined. The decision by the
Iowa court removes all doubt on the
question. 1t was test of the Webb
kenyon act and it originated here in
Ottumwa. George L. ellis deserves
most of the credit for the work done.
1t was he who prepared the original
petition and did most of the study on
the case, was merely associated with
him in the matter
Because 1t was test case, it was
tried carefully on both the facts and
the law. The Wapello County Civic
league is responsible for it's conception
and the hearing. In this hearing the
county, the state, and the express COM
pany, were all represented. The
Northwestern Brewers association had
representative here and the general
counsel of the United States Express
Co. from Cincinnati, Ohio, also par
ticipated, so the case was fully de-
bated from every possible angle.
Already several decisions have
been made in other courts sustaining
the Webb-Kenyon law. A court Of
Delaware and a federal Judge in Ore
gon have passed favorably on the stu
ation.. This sustaining of the law will
undoubtedly make it easier to r.aa;44Qte
the illegal sale of liquor.

Wheat bulls said last night that thew
expected higher prices based on the
cash demand, strong Northwestern
situation and prospects of steady re-
duction in stocks from now on. They
believe that the strong merchandising
situation warrants the maintenance Of
present values and, with the crop dam
age season near at hand, they think
there will be enough outside help to
carry prices higher after every little
setback. 1t was noticeable yesterday
and that wheat was well alb.
sorbed. 1t was the impression among
the bears that any sharp let-up in the
cash demand will see a recession in
prices.
Corn traders were mixed. 1t was said
that the short interest among local
traders has been reduced and that good
buying will be necessary to sustain the
bulge Of yesterday. AS one of the hears
