The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1915-01-21
WOULD AGAIN REQUIRE \
MAJORITY FOR LICENSE.

Pierre, S. Dat the summing up
of the work of the last legislative
session it was discovered tina
through some means a provision IA
slipped into the act relating to liqu-
or licenses. which provides that to
carry a license election requires a
majority of those voting upon that
subject, the words upon that sub
ject' getting into the bill without
any action on the part of either house
This provision has been the subject
of more or less Investigation to find
where the change was made but
nothing definite could be dug up.
Representative Birch, of Grant u
" today will start a bin to eliminate
hot mart Of he existing act, taking
the position that it is not law in fact
regardless of its existence in the
statute. as neither house aver au-
+horized it. The difference is that
under the old law, the voter who
did not vote upon license counted
against, as it required a majority of
II votes cast upon my subject At
the election to declare fer license,
Under the change the silent voter
counted neither way, but if those
yotina for license were greater in
number than those voting against,
license would he carried. 1t is to
get back to the old system that Rep
resentative Birch has introduced
his measure.

Mrs. Henry Peters of Spearfisl,
has joined her husband in this city
and they are insistent upon action
by the legislature. or by the depart
ment of the encouragement in re
gard to the assault made upon Peters
a few nights ago, and winch he says
was perpetrated by students of the
state normal school at Spearfish.
Mr.. Peters shows by the marks on
his face that he was roughly handled
by some one, and he demands that
some definite action be taken.
Both houses for the first time in
the session have several bills on the
calendar for third reading and final
action. and this will mean that the
real grind of grist of the session is
to begin after ten days of prelim-
mary feeding into the mill.
