I Is Sour Fruit Juice
An Intoxicant or Cider?
Important Question llnlhid In Recent
Liquor Cnic Is Appealed lo District
Saturday, tho two liquor cnsca of
l.ulil City vh. UeorRo Deck and Lehl
City va, Frank Smith were tried be
torn Ueoriji! Webb and a Verdict of
guilty rendered In both Instance).
Heck wan lined $125 und Smith $150.
In the Keck cane the defendant con
tended that ho was In the vinegar
uuBlnesiii and the stuff that was bought
by Strleby, the detective, wan nothing
more nor less than sour vinegar, even
If It did contain some alcohol. Mr.
Keek says that he has 1,4011 gallons
In IiIh cellar of various ages, from a
few days to several years, hut that
none of It Is lit to drink iih a beverage
any more than Is l'eruua or I .yd In 10.
I'lnkham'a Compound. Ho says that
100 gallons that the olllcers have
locked up In tho city Jail under the
search and seizure raid was made from
cherries jnashed and boiled In water
with a little sugar In to make tho stun
go sour, but that It Is less than two
weeks old, and Is no more Intoxicat
ing than sweetened water. He main
tains that though tho product pur
chased by Strleby may liuvu had boiiio
alcohol In It, It was too sour to be
used for any other purpose than for
vinegar, and that nil fruit vinegar
has some alcohol In It before It finally
reaches tho ago suitable for ubc. The
city contends that tho stuff Is being
sold for Intoxicating purposes and has
been making boys drunk; that any
thing containing more than 2 per cent
alcohol Is Intoxicating liquor. Tho
bottle purchased by tho detective was
analyzed by tho statu chemist and
contained between 7 and 8 per cent
alcohol. Mr. Deck polutB out that the
rlimnlfit'fi nttnlvfilft fitnn iitimva (Tint II
i H hnd turned sour. Tho question Is
',:- H when Is fruit julco Intoxicating liquor
;' JH and when Is It vinegar? In ono caso
'"5H It may bo sold without a llccnso for
' jMHl making pickles; In tho other tho veu-
WUt dor is liable to arrest for violating
MM tho liquor law.
lH In Frank Smith's cases tho testimony
IM showed that one C. F. Strleby was
fl employed by the city to catch Smith;
M B that Strloby and tho olllcers wont to
S Smith's plncc, and while the olllcers
HI stood on the street opposite Smith's
Mi home, Strleby wont In and purchased
I and drank a bottlo of beer. Tho olll.
'WMW cers corroborated Strleby's testl
Hf m mony to tho extent of looking through
Mm B tho opon door and seeing him drink
"Mf the beer. They also smcllcd beer on
HJ JR . ' hla breath when )uv catnn out. Mr.
'3 Sxmlth put In no defenso at all, except-
Mji Ing his plea of not guilty. Tho Justlco
Mmfh Bavo u verdict of guilty and nfllxed a
-Ktjro tine of $160.
ifljiHME There seems to havo been an un-
SMB duratandlug, at least on Smith's part,
flja that If tho city would not push the
V9J caso against his wlfo, who Is also
flpEf under arrest for n Blmllar offenso,
Bfttrt that ho would not appeal to the dls-
Mvli trlct court, but would pay his line.
9B Mrs, Smith Is 111, and just prior to
SjHj her husband's trial the officers went
!$ to her home and alio entered a pica
mjm or "guilty."
vftR Aftor tho trial tho olllcers again
BBpa went to her home and agreed to duo
MH hex $50 provided her husband would
J pay $150, making $200 In nil. The
Bit city Bays that Mrs. Smith, having
SB pleaded guilty, $50 Is tho least fine
SBJI that can bo affixed In her caso. Smith
BBl sayB that by pushing her caso tho city
BflBt has broken a tacit agreement, so ho
BDK has appealed tho case and given bomlB
BmW and will try out tho Issues In tho dls-
BJBB trlct court.
HBB In tho meantltno Mrs. Smith re-
BBBi mains uuscutenced, though having en-
flfflB torcd-a plea of guilty.
H Clean Town Ball .
WEM Tho clean town commltteo held a
flH meeting this week and took stock of
HH. tho battln now going on. Tho response
of tho people, generally has been so
EjM uuthuslastlu that the commltteo Is of
Bpfll tho opinion that Lehl uttuidB more
BBBI than an oven chance of winning out.
Wfifll This being tho case, the commltteo
Mil decided to get Into the tight for all
jH It Is worth, and usu every lntluuuco
BBBn possible to havo the remaining few
an clean up, so that when tho judges
Bfll como hero next month every home
BBbI will pass muster.
H To accomplish tho desired results
BBfl It 'will bo necessary to have some
V more money, so the commltteo hit on
Bfl ' tho plan of giving a clean town ball
BBB In Smulu's popular dancing ucadeni)
MM next Friday night. The commltteo is
MJ working on some special features for
HBj this party, and It Is thought that the
BBK! hall will 'be crowded to Its capacity.

M8& In an lutorvlow with Mr. Evuiib wu
MR loam thut In referring to the sugar
HK company! laying some of Its men off
Mr this summer, ho stated that as the
lUBfc Dotnocriitle party was responsible for
BBB reducing tho tariff, that it Is probable
Ijnp tho reduction of tho tariff and tho lay-
HBJu lug of tho men off would militate
MMb against tho party In Lohl, unless the
HUE men would possibly say that In mak-
MjK , lug retrenchments the laboring men
Wt should not bo affected first. He did
K jipt say that tlio sugar company was
Fin
"i
!'.
Ilujlng Its men olt for political effect,
ileferrlng to the purchase of Bugur
stock he stated that ho did not know
what effect the tariff would havo on
sugar stock, but fiom the fact that
itio church Interests were bu)lug
large blocks of stock In face or the
tariff reduction, the people would see
that tho sugar business was not going
to pieces, at least for tho present

At the time of letting tho contract
I was known that on the specifications
tin-olio was low man, but after chang
ing the cross-walk fiom live to seeu

a little over $8,000.
