THE WEBB KENYON LAW.

Newspaper comment on the decision
of the United States supreme court,
confirming the constitutionaHty of the
Webb. Kenyon law, indicates some
confusion as to the exact scope of the
law. Rev. Clifford II. Smith, seere-
tary Of the Vermont Anti-Saloon
league, who has studied the subject
carefully, writes to the Burlington
Free Press n lucid explanation.
The old prohibitory law was so null.
lifted by the supreme court decision
that state officials could not interfere
with Intoxicating liquors in interstate
commerce so long as they remained IN
the "original package" Under that
decision a man might bring carload
of liquor into the state which every
ono knew he intended to sell illegally
but the officers could not touch il
while it was in the "originaI pack
age
The so-called Webb-Kenyon law pro
hibits the transportation from one
state to another of any Intoxicating
liquor which is intended for Illegal use
The law is just as applicable in q so
called ''wet" state as in 'sdry'
one. Ii for instance a man orders
liquor from Boston to be delivered il
Burlington, intending to use it lie
gally, this act forbids the shipment o.
the liquor to him. In effect it takes
away the protection of the Unite,
states government from such liquor
and enables the state officials to seiz,
IT as soon as il enters the state.
1 ii state law should make the posses
sion Of intoxicating liquor for one :
4 personal use illegal, then the Webb
/ Kenyon law would prohibit that. Tina
is exactly the situation in West Vir
einia under its new prohibitory law
In Vermont it would apply only I,
liquors intended to be furnished, sol,
or exposed or kept for sale by any on,
not licensed to sell it.

and the Brownies began to notice that
the wind was dying down.
I've might use some Of these
leaves for the bonfire, suggested one
OF the Brownies. They don't seem to
be blowing about any more.
Fine idea shouted another
Brownie. And to work they an went
picking up all the leaves they could
gather in their chubby little arms.
"On the bonfire went the leaves, and
the merry little flames rushed up to

"AesH shouted the Leaves. and as
they said that, q great big blaze came

How beautifully those leaves
burn said the Brownies, and as the
leaves grew Gull and turned up at the
edges they smiled to themselves in an
other little flash of light.
What would we do without leaves

wonderful things?' said Billie Brownie.
And anyone could have told him that
they helped make US joyous and glad

The movement for town government

stride forward when the representa-
tlves Of nearly a score of our largest

Milton, Wakefield, WATERFOWL, Wal

them by duly accredited committees

thing OF the old-fashioned town meet
