SUPREME COURT OF COLORADO
DECIDES DENVER Is SUBJECT
TO PROHIBITION CLAUSE.
Special Election Nuliified and "Wets"
Must Accept Decision Made by
Rest Of State, and Close
All Saloons Jan. I.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver, Dec. 7.-Denver must be.
come dry on Jan. /, according to
the ruling of the Supreme Court in
Its decision In the home rule liquor
case rendered Monday morning.
The decision was rendered en- banc
by the court, the opinion having been
written by Chief Justice Gabbert.
The court held that the Denver
charter. drawn under provisions of the
twentieth, or home rule, amendment
to the state constitution, does not
serve to exempt this city from the
scope of the statewide prohibition
amendment adopted by vote Of the
people Nov. 5. 1914, and the prohibit.
tion.enforcement statute passed by the
Legislature last winter in conformity.
The case was taken to the Supreme
Court by agreement between the at.
torney general and the city attorney
to determine the legality Of the ac-
tion of the Denver city council in
granting liquor licenses extending be-
y0nd Jan. l, 1916. when the statewide
prohibition amendment becomes effec.
tive.
The city council granted the Ii.
censes in accordance with the amend.
ment to the city charter adopted q.
the municipal election last spring,
known as the home-rule for liquor
amendment. Upon petition of the at
torney general and city attorney the
Supreme Court in September agreed
to take original Jurisdiction in the
case on the ground that the issue in
volved was of great public interest
and should be determined before the
first Of the year.
A writ OF certiorari was issued by
the court directing the city to show
cause why 1t should not be ordered tc
cancel the liquor licenses issued by II
and extending beyond thht date.
The contention of the attorneys 70
.he city was that the home rule
amendment to the constitution givcs
Denver and other cities similarly or
ganized exclusive right to regulate
their local and municipal affairs. This
right was not abridged or repealed
with regard to the regulation Of The
liquor traffic by the prohibition amend
ment, It was contended.
The state took the position that thu
regulation Of the sale OF liquor 10 {
police power and that the exercise O
police power is vested within the stat'
alone and cannot be delegated to an!
unit of government within the state
Such a right as that claimed by Der
yer, the states attorneys argued
would be recognizing the authority o
state within tho state, which is prn
hibited by the federal constitution.
1t was also contended by the stat
that the repeating clause Of the pro
hibition amendment repealed anything
In the twentieth, or home rule. amend
ment which might be construed t.
give this authority to Denver or othe
home rule cities in Colorado.
In the decision all liquor licenses ex
tending into 1916 are determined
