LIQUOR TAX NO GOOD
Supreme Court InvaIidates Texas Stat
ute Nine Years Old.

Washington. April 24-The Texas
statute of 1907 imposing a tax of $5,-
600 a year on each place handling
liquor &C. o. D. was held invalid to-
day by the supreme court as an in
reference with interstate commerce
The decision the chief justice an
nounced in delivering it, arose before
the passage of the Webb-Kenyon law
and did not involve it in any way
The decision was involved in a suit
brought by Abraham Rosenberger. a
Kansas City. Mo, wholesale liquor
dealer for damages against the Pa
cific Express company, for failure to
deliver ut points in Texas, liquor
shipped over its lines. The company
sought to return the liquor to Rosen-
berger on the ground that after it's
receipt but before delivery, the Texas
law became effective. The Missouri
supreme court held this a good de-
Tense.
The United States supreme court to-
day held the law invalid and no de-
Tense

RUSSIANS HITTING HARD
Three Lines of German Trenches AT
Lake NarOcz Taken-1,0OO PriS-
0ners Captured.

Petrograd, March 23-While admit
ting that it is not yet clear whether
the fighting which is in progress south
of Dvinsk signifies a general advance
of the Russian troops in that section
or whether it is intended as demon
stration to attract German forces
from the FTanco-German front.
The Russian troops are operating
i'm three groups, covering front OF
20 miles, but the severest fighting is
reported to have occurred in the
vicinity of Lake Narocz, where the
Russians drive carried them through
three lines Of German trenches heav-
lily protected by wire entanglements.
The Russians resorted to their fav-
orite method, bayonet fighting, rout-
ing the Germans in spite of desperate
resistance and capturing more than
1000 men, including II officers, a
dozen machine guns and other booty.

READY FOR THE FRONT.

Captain John N. Weigle, command
ing Company III says that he can get
his organization ready to leave for
the front within hours, if called
upon The 8 officers and IS men will
volunteer for any duty either in or
outside of the United States, and will
consider it the highest privilege of
citizenship to be allowed to help up
hold the dignity and honor of the
Nation, to defend American lives and
property and compel respect for our
Flag.
It is probable that if called out,
the company before leaving would be
recruited up to war strength, or near
that figure, so now is the time, young
men of Carroll county to show if
you are worthy of the traditions of
the Republic. Come up and put your
name on the roll of honor. Do not
be afraid of little rough stuff. You
may not look as pretty i'm Khaki as
i'm evening full dress, and you will
have to stand at attention when the
National Anthem is played, but it will
make a man of you and give you self
respect, self reliance and the respect
and gratitude of your countrymen.
Captain Weigle has put i'm requisi-
ton for the regulation army field
wagon and equipment. This will be
sent at once from Brigade Headquar-
tiers at Baltimore, as it is now in stor-
age at the Fifth Infantry Armory.
This will make the present quarters
of Co. iii all the more crowded and
further emphasizes the inadequacy Of
the Armory at Westminster. All
citizens of Carroll county should
write their Representatives at An
napolis and urge upon them the pas
sage OF the bill to provide an Armory
here for Company III and the First
Regiment Band. Do it today, as soon
as you have finished reading this.
