NEW STATUTE MAKES
HAVING LIQUOR IN
TERRITORY MORE SERIOUS

Hibbing, Mimi, June 7.-Con-
steration is now apparent among the
former liquor dealers here over in
formation received through their
/ lawyers that new revision of the
Federal statutes which became effec-
tice May: 10 makes possession of Ii
quor in the territory prima facie evil
dence of it's introduction. Samples
+ are said to have been taken by the
Indian agents recently of all liquor
destroyed in bar rooms, which cam
pies, it is believed, will be taken be-
fore the Federal grand jury in July
for the purpose of securing indict-
mentsa gaainst the liquor men for
bootlegging.
When questioned regarding the pur-
pose of sampling of liquor destroyed
in local saloons, Indian agents were
not willing to discuss the matter.
They would neither, affirm or deny
knowledge of the new constitution
of those portions Of the Federal stat
rutes as refer to possession Of liquor
within the Indian, territory and state
that it is their custom to take SAM
pies Of all liquor they destroy.
According to the wording of the
new revision of the statutes the bur-
den OF. prof is now switched from the
government to the persons having
liquor in their possession and the per-
son found with liquor will have to
prove or at least furnish some evil
dence that he got it after it's intro
duction.-
The revised wording of the para
graph in the statutes referred to are
as follows: "The provisions Of Sec
ton 2140 and 2141 of the Revised
Statutes Of the United States shall
also apply to beer and other intoxi,
eating liquors named in the act OF
Jan. 10, 1897, and the possession by
a person Of Intoxicating liquors IN
the country where the introduction
is prohibited by treaty or Fedora
lstatute shall be prima facie evidence
Fof unlawful introduction"
