Akrou, Obio, Feb. 2. A repre
sentative of tbo Nutiotml Liquor
League was in tho city this week
and local liquor meu wore very
reticeut as to tho object of hia visit
Now that ho has left a strange
Btory is told of tho movement
which ho is said to bo at tho head
of.
It is no moro than the closing
up of ovory saloon in tho city for a
period of two years. Mombors of
tho Akrou Liquor Leaguo make
this statement iu all soriouBuoss
and claim that tho project is on
tirely feasible. The tnaunor of
doing this is by tho following
method:
Tho National League, covering
thi'tjvfour S'at06, is atroug
enough in pay tho proprietors of
tho lo-al niiloous revenue ouough
to keep them outof tho biiBiuoss and
will dosoihordcrtogivethe people
of Akion and of all other cities
nu object leBson ou tho sufferings
wliinli will bo entailed on muuici
palitic by tho closing of theso
plMO.'H.
The Dnw tax paid by tho saloons
amouutd in Akion to a very larue
Hum, tlit tuoft of which goes to
the police and poor fund, and tbo
loss of tliirs tho liquor dealers
figure, will seriomly ombarrass
tho finances of tho city. Akrop
has been selected as tho city for
this object lenton because of the
recent agitation by tho Ministers
here against tho saloons of tho
city.

We awoke to a realizing sense of

(.any old thing won't satisfy us when
buying), for just what we desired.
At last we have' accumulated a stock
which we are willing to submit to
you. Pure, delicious teas they are,
in the old-fashioned lead-lined chests.
Teas that we'll sell to you by
honest sixten-ounce weight.
Teas that you may examine in
broad daylight before you hand your

Teas that have never been

THE LAW UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Prohibiting tbe Sprinkling of Clothes

The Supreme Court Deems It Unnecessary b
Consider (be Health Question
The Act Is Defective.
Wnsheo John's cheeks touight

wator, to bo prjuirioil pn 'bo

Tho Supremo Court has decided
in effoct tbat it is ovory man's in
alionnble right, coming down from
Magca Cbarta, to iron his own
shirt and to wet it with water
ejected from hn mouth hence
that anybody else doing the job
for him may exorcis tho bhiuo
glorious privilege wh'n, hh in this
case, tho Legislature does noUtn'.o
whoso clothes aro in question.
The deciding opinion is lv S.
M. ilnllon, sitting in place or Jus
tice Frear, ab-ont, with Chief Jus
tice Judd ami Justi:o Whiting,
aud it is unanimous. Its sylla
bus reads:
"Act 31 of the Sosaiou Laws of
16138, eutitled, 'An Act to Ui'unlato
the Laundering of clothing, lied
Ulothing, iNnpory, lowola and
Other Articles of Lik Character,
is not a reasonable uxucis of the
polico power aud is uucoustitu
tional." Obiug G ung nnd ICiing had
appealed from the Di.t'riet to the
Supremo Ciuit directly, upou
points of law, ngainsl thu'r con
viction of niisdemoiinor uudr tho
new la.v mentioned. In the body
of the opinion aro tb following
observations:
1 It is contended for the defen
dant tbat there U noth' ig on the
fiicf of tho Act to show tl.nt it was
pissed ns a health royulation, uor
was there any evidence that tho
practico is uuhenltbful. It would
boom, li3weverfcthat tho healthful
.nnss or unheallhfulne-s of tho
practico is a matter far judicial
cogniztneo, aided by referonco to
any standard sources of informa
tion. " Wo do not find it necessnry to
decide upon thjs point, however,
because wo boliovo that, viewed as
n health measure, the statuto is nn
unreasonable regulation. It is uot
co n I'm ed iu its terms to clothing
laundered for hire nor ovun to tho
clothing of othors. Any person
ojoctiug wator from his mouth up.
ou his owu clothing in ironiug it
would be guilty of a misdemeanor
uudor tho Act. This is beyond tho
valid exercise of tho police power.
Tho rights of nu individual cauuot
be nbridgtcd oxcopt iu so far ns
may bo uoconsnry to prevent in
