My interpretation of the ' sferendum of 1915 is that the ma 4 irity of our people desire prohibi- 1 on; not a law permitting such im- ' ortations as have resulted under the allon a month law in the last 12 lonths. "However, I feel that the Riehey 111 as amended aftc* the motion to like out the enacting words was ! >st, is unreasonably drastic in that ' forbids the citizens from keeping hiskey in his home, even for medi- f nal purposes, and to tliat extent ' inconsistent with other provisions 1 i the bill.
