Judge Taber stated today to an In

there is no doubt Of the unconstitution-

which the Legislature had In mind

it was designed to correct. The giving
of merchandise as premiums is moth

local merchant. But the law enacted
vas too sweeping in character. For
Instance, If a man offered for sale n
shotgun for SO and afterward offered
20 throw in a jack knife, he was liable
the law to a penalty of $500.
The case will be brought to the at
tention of the encouragement and an
effort will be made to have the pres
"nt legislature enact a modified law

The aim of President Wilson and
all administration officials is to avoid
a rupture with Germany, but to do
so without any surrender of neutral
rights. Officials are hopeful that a
disavowal of the submarine COM
mander's act in sinking the Arabic
without warning will be forthcoming.
In a receptive attitude towards
any explanation or statement which
the German government wishes to
offer concerning the sinking Of the
Arabic, the state department is pro-
ceeding with the collection Of all the
testimony which it is possible to OBJ
tain from the ships survivors. Half
a dozen affidavits already have been
received, all tending to show that the
liner was torpedoed without warn
ing, and that she was making no at
tempt to escape or to attack the sub
marine, as suggested by Germany.
