RENDERS OPINION
ON BEER BREWERY.
Sales Must Stop Under Prohibition
Act. Requested by Board.

Columbia, Oct. 1.-The attorney gen
erafs office yesterday rendered an
opinion that Il brewery in Charleston
can not sell beer to the dispensaries
after the result of the prohibition cleo
ton has been declared by the State
board OF canvasscrs. The opinion was
written by Fred II. Dominick, assist
ant attorney general, upon request of
Johh Marshall, secretary of the Char
lesion county dispensary board.
Thc following is the opinion in full:
Il am in receipt of yours OF the
End instant addressed to the attor-
ncy general, in which you say that
the Gcrmania Brewing company of
Charleston holds license for manu-.
featuring beer and that the prohibi-
ton act prohibits the dispcnsary board
from buying, contracting for or re-
cciving liquors after the declaration
OF the result Of the election. You
ask to be advised as to whether or
not, under these circumstances you
can receive beer manufactured by the
Gcrmania Brewing company after the
declaration OF the result Of said cleo
ton.
in reply thereto will say that the
prohibition act, in section thereof.
provides that no liquor Shall be
bought or contracted for or received
by any county dspcnsary board after
the result of said election is declared
by the State board of canvasscrs.'
Under section $50 of the criminal
code of 1912, which section rel rs to
the manufacture and sale of liquor
by distillcrs and beer by brcv cries,
it is provided that such manufactur-
crs shall not sell such liquors and
beverages to any person, firm or cor.
poration within the limits of this
state. except to county dispcnsary
boards
81 will be seen from the provisions
OF law quoted that the brewer can
only sell to the county diSpcnsary
boards. Under the prohibition act
the county disponsary board can not
buy, contract for or receive any liquor
which, OF course, will include beer,
after the result OF the election is de-
clarcd by the state board Of canvas
ScrS.
81 am Of the opinion that this pro-
vision Of the prohibition act will an
ply TO a brewery that has been Ii
ccnscd in this State in the same man
ncr as to any brewery outside Of the
state. In other words, that after the
result Of the election has been de-
clarcd by the State board OF can
vasscrS the county dispcnsary board
has no power or authority, under the
law, in my opinion. to buy, contract
for or receive any liquor or beer
from any source whatsoever"

Following the unusual display
Wednesday night Of the aurora borea-
lis the presence Of electricity in the
air was noticed Thursday morning at
the telephone exchange on Winthrop
hill by series OF electrical discharges
which are sometimes in evidence and
due to distant electrical storms. The
presence OF electricity was shown by
a swapping in the main frame where
the underground cables terminated.
and on the above occasion, as there
were no electrical storms in this vicin-
ity it was decided that the disturbance
on the wire was due to the auroral
display of the night before.
