Little Foundation TO story.

Investigation Of the facts connected
with the passage Of the prohibition
bill develops that this story, which Mr..
Peters says is gaining general circu-
lation has little foundation, in fact. to
bear it up.
There Is no doubt whatever that the
governor signed the bill. 1t could not
have become a law unless he had done
so. Nor did he sign it on holidaJ.
The lieutenant governor had to sign
the bill. too. AS to whether he signed
| it on holiday or not 1t appears from
the opinion of officers who are thor
oughly informed as to the proper pro-
cedure, that the nature of the day
would not affect the validity Of the
signing.

According to Register and Leader
There Is Rumor That Dry Laws
Cannot "Hold Water In
Show Down..
PASSED ON HOLIDAY?
Story Is Based On Passage Of Mea-
sure Of lincoln's Birthday-Not
Believed There Can Be
Any Foundation.

According to the Des Moines Regis
ter and Leader. there is a rumor
throughout the state Of Iowa that the
lprohibitory legislation enacted by the
last session of the assembly is void. An
larticle in yesterdays paper reads as
follows:
"a rumor Is current over the state
that the recent legislation on the pro-
h1bition question is null and void be-
cause of certain conditions surround
ing its passage is the information
which James Peters of Tama, Iowa.
gives the Register in a letter.
Mr.. Peters declares that the brew
ers and other interested parties are
reported to be preparing to contest the
matter when the time comes for en-
forcement Of prohibition
THE story goes" he continues, that
the law passed the legislature. or at
least one branch of it, on Lincoln's
birthday, which is a holiday, and that
when 1t went to the governors Office
for his signature he lodged the re
sponsibility and left it to the lieu
tenant governor, to do the signing ami
that the lieutenant governor put the
signing off until Washington's birth
day and thus added another question
to it's validity by signing it upon Il
legal holiday
There are many hints that this was
all done by a prearranged program AMI
that it was not intended the law should
hold water Can the Register en-.
tighten its readers any on the matter?"
