PINE BLUFF JUDGE RULES
AS DID COUNTY JUDGE ASHER

Little Rock, Jan. 23.--It is inter-
esting to note that County Judge
Philpot of Jefferson County has rul-
ed identically with Judge Asher OH
the question of addresses on liquor
petitions. Judge Philpot is now
hearing the petition asking for the
return of licensed saloons to Pine
Bluff. Yesterday the attorneys for
the prohibitionists asked that Judge
Philpot strike off several hundred
names contained in the petition, but
toSwhich no street addresses had
been given.
Judge Philpot ruled that the pc
titioners mail addresse was sufficient
and that the names should stay on.
This same question was before Judge
Asher twice during the hearing OF
the Argeata petition. Several hund-
red names were asked to be stricken
off by the prohibitionists, because IN
some instances the street address
could not be found, in others nc
street address had been given and in
others the signers had moved from
the address originally given. Judge
Asher's ruling that if the signers
lived in Argenta no matter what thei1
address or whether any address al
all was given the signatures were
good.

she could not come as witness her
self. Through this witness the name
