Dubuque Chances Gone.

Dubuque, March 81. - Whatever
hope Dubuque held out for landing
the eleven million dollar munitions
plant has been blasted ReaItAd-
miral Fletcher, chairman of the
board to select the site for the plant,
wired Secretary Rankin of the Com
mercial Club:
Dubuque is not within limits fixed
by general board under law from the
standpoint of safety"
The limits fixed by the board are
as follows: East of the Rocky Noun
tains, west of the Alleghaneys, two
hundred miles or more from the Can
adam and Mexican borders and two
hundred miles or more from the
Great Lakes.
Dubuque is 146 miles from Lake
Michigan. Until Q the boards decis.
ion with respect was made known
finally, it did not leak. out that Du.
buque had been a strong bidder for
the proposed plant. For months ev,
cry possible influence had been
brought to bear at Washington in
Dubuque's behalf. Maurice Connol.
ly once appeared before the general
board at Washington and made a plea
for Dubuque.

RAILWAYS MAY

TRANSPORTATION CAN'T BE EN-.
JOINED UNDER PRESENT LAW.
RULING IN M. & ST. [. CASE
Judge De, Graft of the Polk County
District Court Dismisses Action
Brought by w. c. Barber For
Anti-Saloon League.


Des Moines, March 21.-Railroads
may continue to ship liquor into Iowa
under decision given by Judge Law
renee DeGraff in a case against the
M. & st. l.. road.
Judge DeGraff declared that the
law offered no excuse for enjoinine
railroad as nuisance, and that the
only immediate action possible to
halt the shipments from other states
was.ene of a criminal nature.
The opinion was filed In the county
clerks Office, and is the first of this
kind recorded in the state. The
ruling was handed down in the case
OF Barber VS.. the M. & st. l.. railroad
one OF the nine cases recently filed
~ the anti-saloon league in an at.
,empt to put the last clamps on a
,one-dry Iowa.
Not a Liquor Nuisance.
In handing down his decision Judge
De Graft said:
This cause of action is predicated
Ipon the theory that the defendant
abroad company is maintaining q
liquor nuisance and that said nuts.
tnce should be abated. The primary
question to be decided under the
acts stipulated herein is whether or
lot liquor nuisance is being main
tanned by the said defendant COM
)any, or We may state the legal prop
)sition involved under the facts: Do
he prohibitions of code section 2419
,ome within the purview of the stat
ite authorizing an injunctional rem.
sdy?
Unless the act which is alleged to
constitute the nuisance was done in
connection with the use of some
building or place. it is not nuisance
within the meaning Of the law. When
my OF the prohibited acts are done in
building or place, then the build
ing or place becomes a nuisance, and
under section 1882 the person main-
tanning such nuisance is guilty of sub
stantive crime, a liquor nuisance. and
may be enjoined and punished there
FOR, and when such nuisance is estab-
ished either civilly or criminally, it
is subject to abatement, and an in
junction will lie which reaches not
only the building in question but also
the acts of the defendant in this par
ticular inquiry within the judicial dis
trict. These propositions are clearly
established by code sections 1884
2405 and 240S.
-. - Not Subject to Injunction.
Section, 2419 defines a substan-
tive criminal offense and provides
punishment. Crimes are not the
objects of injunction unless express
ly made so by statute or where recog-
nized by common law as nuisances.
In the absence, therefore. of a stat
ute bringing the crime defined by. Sec
ton 2419 within the jurisdiction of
a court of equity it cannot be placed
there by the court. 1t is a matter
of legislation and not judicial con-
struction.
I'VE find, therefore. that the facts
stipulated in the case at bar do not
bring the defendant railroad company
within the inhibitions and prohibit
lions Of any of the liquor statutes in
this state for which an Injunction
remedy is provided. and the petition
of the plaintiff is dismissed at plain
tiff's COSTS

Phillip Seheidemann Declares That

cause It Alone Bars De-

Berlin, March 21.-Philipp Schelde-
mann, socialist leader in the reichstag,
says in the socialist newspaper. Vor-
waerts:
at does not require many words to
explain why almost the whole world IL
arrayed against us. The answer is
given quickly. The whole world sees
among our enemies more or less de-
veloped forms of democracy, and in us
1t sees only Prussians.
'We have always answered by re-
ferring to the absolutism of Russia,
but now czarism has gone and the en-
peror's successor Is to accept the
throne only If the representatives of
the people agree. These representa-
lives are to be elected on the basis of
universal, equal, direct and secret suf-
frage.
''In Asia the empire Of the man
darins opposed every reform. They de-
sired an emperor with absolute power,
as long as he did their will, and there
by undermined the monarchy and laid
the foundation of republic. In the
!, European central empire similar spirits
seek to build similar Chinese walls and
hinder every reform. The clock shows
five minutes to twelve. They imagine
they hold up the time when they move
back the hands to eleven.
HolIweg Always Procrastinator.
"Why does the chancellor shrink
back now from unconditional necessi-
ty? Always the hesitator, the pro-
crastinator, Bethmann-Hollweg wishes
to begin to cure Prussia after the war.
Russia also promised all reforms after
the war, bot the war lasted too long
for the Russians. Why postpone TO
tomorrow what Is absolutely necessary
today, what even the king himself de-
clared years ago was one Of the most
urgent matters of the business of the
state?
"Now is the time for decisive action.

sian people, as well as the other Ger
man states, will stand as one man on
his side If he acts declsively."
., LokaIanzeiger Is for Delay.
In a different strain the LOkalan-
Zeiger, one of the newspaper organs
close to Chancellor Won Bethmann-Ho ll-
veg, says:
"A change in the Prussian electoral
system has been promised for a year
and after the war will be debated and
put into practice with all quiet thor
oughness. That is no longer news; it
is an obvious fact. To demand 1t for
tomorrow and at that in connection
with q hymn of jubilation for the Rus
sian revolution is so precarlOus a ven
ture that it must be rejected. 1t is
certain that Minister-President Won
Bethmann-Hollweg intended no such
result from his latest speech"
