NEW PHASE OF THE
PROHIBITION LAW
Montgomery Brewery Sues COlquitt
County Concern For Value of
Two Cars of Beer.

TWO oars Oh Docf.
MOULTRIE, Ga.-The supreme
court will be called upon to decide
a new phase of the Georgia prohibi
ton law as the result of a case tried
in the superior court of this county.
A Montgomery brewery sued Homes
Hartsfield Co., wholesale grocers of
Moultrie, for two cars of beer valued
at $1,000. During the trial of the
case the manager of the brewery ad-
mitted that the beer was intoxicating
and that he sold it to the defendants
and shipped it from Montgomery to
Moultrie knowing that it would be
sold in Georgia in violation of the
law. Judge Thomas held that the
shippers were 'particeps criminis" in
the unlawful enterprise and directed
verdit in favor of the defendants.
The beer, so it was brought out in
the progress of the trial, was brewed
under the instructions of the Homes
| Hartsfeld Co., and contained just the
per cent of alcohol the defendants in
/ the case requested, and was labeled
| according to their instructions. Be-
fore the bill fell due the defendants
in the case were tried and convicted
for violation of the prohibition. law,
and they contested the payment of
the bill. The suit was then brought.

At the conference which agreed on
che adjournment Southern members
fighting for legislation to relieve cot

to block the adjournment plan with
points of no quorum or other techni-

senate leaders, where the filibusters

again seemed assured.
Senator Smith of Georgia, who had
been a leader in the filibuster in

of abandoning the filibuster. That

HIGH LICENSE IN LEWISTON.
The Wet Victory to Be Followed by
New License Regulations.
T.pwiStOn TrihunaA

If the new ordinance as introduced
at the meeting of the council last night
and which passed first reading, be-
comes law, 1t will be hard Shedding
for the saloons entering Lewiston The
restrictions defined are the equivalent
of those imposed by the large cities,
while no limit is placed on the num-
Der of saloons that might be opened.
Regardless Of the open limit, the IL
cense is fixed at $3.50, an increase of
$3.50 over that provided in the old or
dinance, and with the state license
making a total of $500 year. The
bars must be no greater distance than
II feet from the street line and must
be plainly visible from the street. No
chairs or tables are allowed and the
bar must occupy single room.
/ The council took up the ordinance
for consideration in executive session
last night and when the session was
concluded, the first reading had been
completed.
The closing hour is fixed at ~
o'clock midnight except on Saturday
night, when the hour will be 1880,
and saloons must remain closed from
midnight to m. The licensee can
not sell food in the bar room, but can
give away crackers and pretzels. PEG.
! pie identified with breweries can not
secure license. and a person holding
a license must maintain his residence
in the city and personally conduct the
saloon.
Apparently 1t is the purpose not t.
grant licenses to the Elks' or Eagles
clubs. for the ordinance contains this
provision:
THAT said bar room in which the
business authorized by said license is
conducted and in which said bar is
located shall not be in a basement.
but shall be on the ground floor and
fronting its full width on public
street, and shall have such doors and
windows in the front Of said room as
may be necessary and convenient"
AS the Elks' club and the Eagles
club occupy second-story quarters,
they would be ineligible for license.
The ordinance will come up for Sec
ond and third reading at The next |
meeting and by it's terms becomes op-
erative within Ave days after pass
age.

The issue between Mr.. Perkins and

down to the fact that Mr.. Perkins says
he is progressive. while Mr.. Pinchot
says Perkins is plutocrat and never
can be anything else. Everybody
knows that Mr.. Perkins. in spite Of
his Y. M. c. A. training and tradi-
lions, did yield himself to Wall street
and its horrid methods. He did be-
come trust magnate and do all the
dreadful things which such persons
do. But he saw the light ere 1t was
too late-so, at least, it was proclaim
ed broadcast in 1912. He stood at Ar
mageddon. Thenceforth he was un-
derstood to be pure-positively pro-
gressive-as virtuous as Bill Finn

Meyer and Military Protection

For just what purpose President
Meyer Of the Western Federation of
Miners went to Helena to see Govern
or Stewart, the Miner does not know.
although the reasonable supposition,
and the one which most persons
jumped to was that he was seeking
either to have the militia sent to
Butte, or to persuade the executive to
appeal to President Wilson for fed
eral troops.
Those taking part in the conference
held In the capital city Wednesday,
including Senator Walsh. are very
reticent concerning the subject of
conversation, and all that Mr.. Meyer
vouchsafed was that he was informing
the governor and the United States
senator Of the situation in Butte.
Mr.. Walsh has already left Helena
for Washington, and before leaving
said that he expected to see President
Wilson and advise with him concern
ing conditions here.
Unless some new phase develops,
there does not appear to be any rea-
son for sending to Butte either state
or federal troops. but from past ex-
perience. II Mr.. Meyer should be de-
termined to come back to this city
and hold a meeting of Western Fed
Grafton members, he would undoubt-
eddy need greater protection than the
local authorities are capable Of rem.
dering.
For the sake Of peace and harmony
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Meyer will
not undertake anything Of this kind
for some time, or at least until things
quiet down, although his right to come
and go as he pleases is a common one,
which every American citizen is sup
posed to enjoy.
AS labor leader it would be some-
thing Of satire If It should develop
that Mr.. Meyer had asked for military
protection of any kind, for prominent
members Of unions invariably inveigh
against militarism in all its forms.
Just for the sake of argument, say
that either state or federal troops
should be ordered to Butte to sustain
