porous looking suit case nowadays as
the police force are inclined to look
with suspicion on any travelling bag or
suit case coming from the wet fields
of California. AS to whether an officer
ofthe law has the right to invesugAte
suit case travelling north, there is
chapter 141 of the general laws of Ore
gon for 1917, page 179. Part of this
chapter reads that if an officer "has
reasonable information that intoxicat-
ing liquors are being unlawfully carried
he may search without warrant. 'About
the only thing that cannot be searched
is train, but even cars may be search
ed if one of the train Grey invites an
officer to look around. Then the police
have the legal right to ask any one to
open a suit case for examination and
to ask one to step over to the police
station and talk it over. There are
some who rely on the constitution of
the United States to protect their
rights, but from past experience in Sa-
lem, the constitution was Of no avail
when the police officer asked any one
to come along to the police station.
