All day yesterday everybody iu Columbi; was wondering what judge Townsend was going to do with Kheppard, but it was Dot un til about 5: 30 that the Judge filed his decisiot with the Clerk of Court. In It lie gives hii reasons very clearly anil forcibly, and etidi by sentencing Sheppard to pay. a fine of S-IX and serve a sentence of eight months in tin Pententiary.

JudgeW. C. Benet on the 25th day of January. A. 1). 1SU>. granted ur order of Injunction restraining him from sell ing, keeping or giving away intoxicatini liquors in his place of busiuess on Gervais Ktreet, in Columbia, South Carolina. So in dictment. has yet been submitted to the Grant Jury, and the case is still pending 1l the Court of General Sessions. This is a proceeding instituted by the State of South Carolina against William Sheppard under Section 22 of the Dispensary Ac! approved 2d of January, 1895, lo try anel punish him for violation of the order of in junction. In the petition filed by the As Nlstnut Attorney (Jeneral, representing thi State, it is alleged that a warrant was elulj issued, an order of Injunction granted anc personally served, and that the defendant elis obeyed the same by selllug iutoxicutin; liquors lu the place of business enjoined, Affidavits were anuexed to the petition, ane these making out a prima faciecase, a rul< was Issued requiring the defendant to shov cause at a specified time and place why h< should ne?t be attached for a contempt in dis obeying the order of Injunction, which rul< was personally served.

That on the face of these proceeding the court had no jurisdiction to grant, sate restraining order, e>n this rule to show cause because the same is unconstitutional in thesi particulars: (a.)

This respondent admits that on the 23( day ol January. 1S95, a warrant was issued bi Hugh A.

Respondent admits that a certain orde: signed by Hon. W. C. Benet, presiding Judge was served on him on about the day o .lfitt, and tbat he denies that he, his ser vants or agents have violated any of th< terms of said order, and for a defense allege that on the 29th of January, 1895.nil his right title and interest In the business on Gervaii street, in the city of Columbia, was sold ou at public auction by B, C.

Stevenson, and submits iu replj to the affidavits that if people do congregate Ht said place of business on (jervais street this respondent has nothing to do therewit! - as the same is not his place of business. And, in conclusion, this respondent denies all the allegations in said affidavit, not hereinbefore specifically admitted, or denied, ant herewith presents his witnesses, and ask) that said case be heard orally. Wherefore respondent having disclaimet any intention to violate any order of this honorable court respectfully asks that the rul< be discharged and that respondent be allowec to go hence without day. John JMcMaster, Respondent's Attorney. The Defendant and the State of South Caro llua produced testimony, which was partly oral and partly by affidavits. In the argu ment, the counsel representing the defendan assailed the Jurisdiction of the court to gran < the restraining order upon various grounds The 1st ground is that the Dispensary Act i> in contravention of Article -1, Sections 1, 1 and 1(?, of the Constitution of South Carolini in that it confers equity jurisdiction upon tbi (-'ourt of General Sessions. ? I?? fr%T in fflot . sefl This is a mere aihuui^nwu, ... , ? tion 22 of the Dispensary law does not at tempt to confer any such Jurisdiction upoi tbe Court or Sessions. The provisions are, that the application t>: the proper officer for the restraining orde shall ba made to a Circuit Judge, at cbamb ers. within the Circuit, and authority is con ferred expressly upon bim to grant tbe order There is a further provision, that any persoi violating such order of injunction shall b punished for contempt, anu the proceeding for this purpose shall be had in the court, o In vacation by tbejudge thereof. It is furth er provided, that the trial for contempt am the punishment shall be as required by law and tbe proceedings shall conform as nearl; as may to the practise in the Court ol Conl nion 1'leas. Provision is also made, for plead lng by the party charged, tbe compulsory al tendance of bis witnesses, ana all otbe privileges allowed parties by law to excus any contempt, or to disprove the same. It was clearly within the power of th Ueneral Assembly to declare any violation c a restraining order punishable, and to confe the authority to punish upon aClrcult.Iudg< or the court. All the provisions of the Ac manifest an intention 011 the part of tii liegislature to confer the jurisdiction to tr, and punish lor such contempts, not upon th Court of General .Sessions, but upon the Clt cuit Judge of the Circuit or the Court c Common pleas. Why are tbe practice am trial in such cases assimilated to that in !b Court of Common l'leas, If this court is no invested with the power to try such cases It does seem to me that tbe terms of the Ac refute the argument of Defendant's counsel. >? It is further contended, that the Code pre vides tbe only manner and cases in which ir junctions cau be granted, and that a sum mous and complaint are essentially necef sary in any case to authorize the granting c unorderof injunction. ' * -* hoc olwnvs nonfipRtp i necourt ui ^iuhj ? ?., , Ihe power of grantlog injunctions, especiall, tu suits to abate and restrain common nulsai uee. and it? other cases. All that is require* in tli? practice is, that the parties intereste and neuessary shall be brought before th court, so (hat their rights inay be determinec no mutter what the form o( pleadings ma. be. The sections of the Code in regard to In junctions, considered as a whole, by the com parison of each of Its parts, do not material! change the mode of practice which existe befo-e the abolition of all distinction betweei legal and equitable remedies. The Constlti lion aud existing Statutes confer thegenera powers upon the Circuit Judge to graut ic junctions." Watson vs. Citizens Saving Hank, 5a U. It., 177. Hut the General Assembly of the State 1 competent, if !t sees tit, to provide otlie mode* and cases for the granting of injuni Hons in special cases, thau those provide for in the (.'ode of Procedure. In the Dispensary Act it is expressly d( dared that an injunction may be granted t restrain common liquor nuisances, lu uccorc ance with certain provisions and modes < practice, aud if these should coufiict in an way with the Code, they are paramount, an only aud to the provisions ol the Code. I fact, the pleadings in this case are substantia ly a summons and complalut, for the State I plaintiff and the party interested is Uefeni ant, and all the necessary allegations ai made, a rule to show cause issued. answ< riled, and the case is heard practically lu a action. The second objection is. that the Act is i t-ont raven lion of Article 1, Section 11, of th State Constitution, which is as followi The right of trial by jury shall remain it violate." In Lucken vs. Wishman,5 S. C., Ill, lielt The declaration In the Hill of Rights, se lion eleven, that the right of trial by jur shall remain inviolate, does not apply I cases within the equitable jurisdiction of tt court." ,'uMugier vs. Kansas, 123 U.

The Statute of Kansas is like that in Sout Carolina, and makes no provision for a jur trial, nor does the Dispensary law. In Elleubecker vs. Plymouth County, 13 U. S., SI. the court said : "The right of court to punish for contempt without the ii tervention of a Jury was a well establlshe rule of the common law. If it lias even bee understood that proceedings according to tl; common law for contempt of court have bee subject to the right of trial by jury, we ha\ / feu unable to find any instance of it." it i.\ljirtlwrcontended, that the Act is i contravention of Hie l:!th., 14th and litt i tloiisof the State Constitution.
