IN LIQUOR
CASES
Judge Franklin ]. Cole In
> terprets Law; Peoples
Failure Results in Multi
fication of Local, State
Laws.

A decision resulting in substance
in the notification of city liquor or
dinances and state option laws was
made by Judge Franklin J. Cole in
Department l of the Superior court
yesterday in the cases of the People
. versus Alben fresh and the People
versus Frank .Scutter and John Bau-
man. The two cases are known as
the celebrated Imperial ''cider" cases
and have been pending in the courts
for number of months.
The case against fresh was being
tried under the county ordinance
passed some or 6 years ago while
the other case was for prosecution
under the state "Wylie local option
law" both laws being made effective
previous to the passing Of the 18th
amendment and the decision of Judge
Cole is the first Of it's kind in Imperial
county and test case.
Judge Cole held that the govern
ment and not the state had the right
|of jurisdiction over liquor cases Of all
kinds insofar as county officials were
not paid by the federal government
for enforcing the 18th amendment.
All minor charges will 60 before
the U. s. commissioner and all felony
charges before the United States
grand Jury.
O.V. Wilson was attorney for the
defendants in each case and gave the.
ollowing statement as to the import
ance of the decision: "This is the first
time in the history of Imperial county
dockets the validity of county or state
ordinances has come to the attention
of the court and the decision of Judge
Cole is very important. Both laws
coming to the attention of the. court in
this case were passed and made .ef-
fective before the 18th !, amendment
came into effect and by Judge Coles
decision local laws superseded by the
Volstead act has no jurisdiction and as
a result the prosecution Of alleged vio-
lations of liquor laws will have to be
in federal courts" SYyug n
Failure of the people to pass the
Harris act has brought about the pres
ent situation.
