RESCR|PT FROM Law
COURT IN CASE OF
STATE VS.. MAHEu

Exceptions are overruled and a
judgment is given for the State in the
case of State VS.. Gedeon Maheu of
Waterville by a rescript handed down
by Associate Justice Leslie G. Cornish.
The rescript reads as follows:
Kennebec county. State VS.. Gedeon
Maheu. Rescript, Cornish, J.
Section 9 of an ordinance of the city
of Waterville, known as the Meat Code,
provides as follows:
Section 9. That no person or per-
sons shall sell or offer for sale in this
city any meat intended for human con-
sumption, whether slaughtered within
such district or elsewhere, unless the
same has first been inspected and ap-
proved by the meat inspector or as
sistant inspector or Board of Health of
the City of Waterville, except meats.
bearing the inspection stamp of the
United States department of agricul-
ture."
The respondent purchased five fresh
pork shoulders from a wholesale deal
er in Auburn, Maine by whose private
inspectors the meat had been inspected.
1t was shipped in due course to the
respondent at Waterville and was
placed in his market for sale without
being inspected in Waterville as pro-
vided in the ordinance above recited.
The respondent filed a general de-
murrer to a complain brought under
this section and the demurrer was
overruled. Upon exception to this rul-
ing and upon an agreed statement of
facts, it is
Held,
/. When a municipal ordinance is
passed under a general law authorizing
municipalities to make regulations for
the health, safety and welfare of the
people, the court may declare the
ordinance invalid if it contravenes the
State or Federal constitution or an ex-
listing statute, or If in their judgment it
is unreasonable, even though it may
conflict with neither constitution nor
statute.
2. Section 9 is not in conflict with
either the State or Federal constitu-
ton, nor with any statue of this State.
3. 1t is also reasonable both as to
the particular subject matter and as to
the method of enforcement.
f. In the absence Of general law
regulating the subject throughout the
State, each city or town has the right
to insist upon inspection by it's own
officials The inspection by private
inspectors is without legal force.
Exceptions overruled.
Judgment for the State.

Fannie Ward Is
For the Defense

Fannie Ward, often called Ameri-
cas- most versatile photoplay star,
comes to the Vining Tuesday evening
in "For the Defense" a detective
story of engrossing interest. The
story is that of a little French girl
who, in strange land, becomes the
central figure in a tragedy in which
the man who befriended her is ac-
cused of murder. How she secures
evidence which frees her friend
makes thrilling story as enacted on
the screen.
Miss Ward is the actress who
scored such a remarkable sensation
in "The Cheat" Her new play is
said to excel this famous picture.

Frenchman Prefers
To Leave Town

A majority of the park board men,
bers hired a Frenchman, Otto c.
Dorrier, to take charge of the park
this morning upon the assumption
that P. H. Graves was through.
Pending the outcome of arguments
going on this afternoon by the park
board and city council, Graves re-
mains in charge of the park. Two
things have contributed to decision
made by Dorrier to leave town on
this evenings train. First, he has
decided that he does not wish the
place if he has to meet the same OBJ
stacles which caused Graves to hand
in his resignation. Secondly he was
given his choice this morning of
standing trial on a charge of violat-
ing the park ordinance or of leaving
town. Dorrier was arrested on a
charge sworn out by one of the Ash
land patrolmen which charges him
with soliciting acquaintances in the
park. The instance upon which the
charge was based occurred at the ten
mis- courts. Dorrier dropped into con-
versation with three young ladies of
Ashland and introduced himself as
the park superintendent who was to
take charge today. Technically he
violated the ordinance, but he dis
claims any wrong intention in speak
ing to the girls. The young ladies
state that nothing that he said could
have been taken as offensive, and
were rather amused at his effusive
manner. The man has been around
town for several days, and while not
committing any offense which could
be classed as crime, was rather
hasty in making the acquaintance of
one or two young ladies and, to use
the words of one, hung around
lot" Dorrier disclaims any intention

Editors Of State
Coming to Ashland

Arrangements are being perfected
| by Ashland and Medford for the en-
I tertainment of the convention which
| is the most valuable and the most
sought after of all state gatherings,
namely, the State Editorial Associa-
tion, which will convene in Medford
on August at 1920 a. m. Before
returning to their various sanctum
sanctoriums the editors will be given
banquet in Ashland's Lithia Park
and shown over the park and city,
driven in automobiles through the
Rogue River valley and to the sum-
nit of the Siskiyous over magnificent
Pacific Highway, banqueted at the
Hotel Medford, and last but not least,
taken to Crater Lake.
The banquet at the Hotel Medford
is under the charge of Ben Sheldon,
who, by the way, was mainly instru-
mental in securing the convention for
southern Oregon, and will be the
most unique affair ever pulled off
around banquet table in this part of
the state, according to Mr.. Sheldon.
The entertainment in Ashland is
not fully planned as yet, but will be
on scale commensurate with the i'm
portance of the body of men who will
be here. This visit by the editors
from all over the state is of immense
value to Ashland. Ashland needs the
cooperation of every newspaper with
in a radius of hundreds of miles in
order to realize her resort ambitions
fully, and a typical, hospitable Ash
land welcome, added to the things
which Ashland has to show her visit
ors, will send the editors back to
