UP TO SUPREME COURT
Whether Kansans Can Hold keg Par
ties in Social Way.

The supreme court was today called
upon to determine new phase Of the
Mahin liquor law which compels the
purchaser of Intoxicating liquor to
certify that the goods are for his own
personal use. Suit to settle the legal
ity of this section of the law went to
the supreme court today on an appeal
from the Miami county district court,
where w. d. Edwards had been con-
victed on a charge of making false
statements.
In the complaint filed in Edwards
case. it was charged that the defend
ant bought a 16-gallon key of beer.
The beer was shipped to Osawatomfe.
where Edwards received 1t and signed
q form statement to the effect that
the liquor was for his own personal
use. 1t was charged by the state that
the beer was not intended for Ed
wards personal use and that he was
guilty Of classifying a statement when
he signed the receipt. Edwards did
not satisfy a jury that he personally
drank the 16 gallons Of beer and he
was convicted.
Now the case is up to the supreme
court. That tribunal will be asked to
settle and determine the constitutions
atty of the section Of the law COM
polling the purchaser of liquor to sign
a statement that the liquor is for his
own personal use.

GEORGE NEELY'S EGO.
1t Extends to Disposition and Control
Of Kansas Troops.

CONGRESSMAN George A. Neeley's
action this week in placing the kan
sas troops at the disposal of Presi-
dent Wilson is the latest joke among
Kansas politicians and officers OF the
national guards. For Neeley's power
to place the state troops at anyonc's
disposal is about as binding as a call
from a Second ward politician for a
special session Of congress.
Neeley's latest joke was perpe-
trated this week in Hutchinson, ais
home town. The Seventh district

patriotism expanded to the bursting
point when he read the press dis
patches concerning the situation IN
Mexico. Perhaps Medley felt that
congress was waiting-fer some word
from him and that the president nesi-

should hear from the Seventh Kansas
district member of the national house
So Medley rushed to the presidents
rescue. -.-.s .-...,~
In a lengthy telegram-copies o1
which were furnished the newspapers
