Prohibition is constitutional,
for if the government conshlers
a traffic, such as liquor, an evil,
it comes within its police powers
to prohibit it. The dispensary
is not a prohibitory law, hut is
a law for revenue, as the State
continues the evil which it for
bids the people doing and de
rives a profit therefrom. The

If such will be the result, who

enormous expense incurred in

The News is pleased with the
decision. This paper has never
touched upon the constitution

within the province of a news
paper. This is for the Court to
decide. All our opposition to
the dispensary has been direct
ed to what we consider an abom
ination and even more, a dis
grace, the State selling liquor.
We rejoice in a fearless Judge,
and such is Judge Hudson. No
ulterior motive can be ascribed
to him for his decision. He act
