THE COURTS As TO USE or INTOXI-
eating LIQUOR.

The words Intoxicating liquor As
voted on next week, the same
words se were used in the former pro-
tnbitory law and in the present license
law, and the definition of these words
Us the same in all three measures.
The wording of section two Of act
number III of the laws OF 1915, which
prohibits the sale of intoxicating LIQUOR
cad prohibits the furnishing or expos.
ing or keeping with intent to sell any
Intoxicating liquor. is practically the
same section 5,1o2 OF the public
statutes which is n part of the license
law. and of section 446o of the Vermont
statutes. which was part of the prohibit
tory law. So that it appears that the
ect of 1915 was built upon the same
basis in part these other statutes.
The case of State vs.. krinsky, recorded
in volume rs, Vermont, page lG2. decided
in 1905, arose under the present license
law The Supreme Court of this State
by unanimous opinion decided that the
statutes prohibiting the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquor without a license did not
exclude from the term all medicinal
preparations. fluid extracts and toilet
articles, of which alcohol is the solvent
principle even though they contain more
than one per cent. of alcohol"
This case involved the consideration
pf the question whether certain jamaica
ginger was unlawfully kept for sale OF
not, and the court said that 1.-The impor-
tant inquiry is. was it kept for the pur-
pose of sale with intent to sell it as
beverage" This opinion affirmed the
law laid down in the case Of State rs,
1iezer, recorded in volume n, Vermont,
page 80. a case decided in 1901 under the
prohibitory law. In this case which the
Vourt very fully considered the question
whether the prohibitory law prohibited
the sale Of alcohol in medicinal prepar-
Rtions. etc. such as bitters. and on.
Tho court said It was clear the inten-
zion Of the Legislature in cracting the
prohibtory law was ITO prevent the sale
Of those liquors as n beverage commonly
callcl and known as Intoxicating and
not 20 prevent their sale. when not used
as beverage. but used in medicinal
prcpa rations culinary purposes, etc,
and sold for such uses in good faith. ="
70 the act OF 1915 is adopted by the
voters at the March election and the
license law thereby be repealed, all!
liquors properly used. and lin good

the state AL rot ne without the proper
use OF then in medicine, II they so

culinary or other legitimate and lawful
purposes; the ban being upon the sale
of such liquors for a beverage purely.

A HUGHES DELEGATE DECLARES
HIMSELF.
CFrom the Springfield Republican,

tFrom the Springfield Republican,
Justice Hughes has been able to pre-
vent his name from appearing on the
primary ballots of one or more States
by registering his formal objection. But
he cannot prevent any candidate seeking
election as delegate to the Chicago con-
vention from offering himself as one who
personally intends to cast Hughes bal
lot till the convention ends. The Gardner
Bird-Cushing-W ashburn group having de-
clared themselves for Roosevelt former
State Senator Charles II. Brown of Med
ford has now come forward as a Hughes
candidate for delegate from his district.
II Justice Hughes were not on the bench
his nomination would apparently be con-
coded on all sides. although his desira-
bility as a candidate is to a considerable
degree due to the very fact that he Is on
the bench and was in 1872. There are
many republicans who feel that no man
would refuse a presidential nomination II
once actually made by the convention,
and there are Others. including some VINO
have studied Justice Hughes at close
range, who feel that his devotion to the
Independence Of the judiciary would lead
him to precisely that course. But the diff
flculty of opposing the Roosevelt move
ment by electing unpledged delegates, is
that OF waging purely defensive war
against a vigorous offensive.
II the Roosevelt movement gains visible
momentum, the conservative leaders OF
the party, in their efforts to head the coll
onel off. may he driven to setting up
Hughes candidates definitely so labeled
Should that situation develop Justice
Hughes would apparently be driven to do
one OF two things: Resign from the bench.
