IS POWER TO REVOKE Judge Stewart Holds That atzr Present Excise Rule is Inadequate Under the Court's Ruling Hollingworth's License Will Be Restored The authority of the members of the excise, board of Lincoln to revoke a saloon license under the present rules wlthotu a criminal hearing at which the proprietor Is found guilty of a violation of the rules or the Slocumb law was denied Monday by Judge Stewart in the district court in a decision In the case of state ex rel Frank W. Hollingworth against A.

H. Armstrong, V. E. Unland and Harry Porter. Hollingworth was successful In his mandamus suit brought against the members of the board to compel them to recon.

sider their former action and rest'i-e bis license. Judge Stewart directed that a peremptory writ of mandamus issue against Mayor Armstrong, W. E. Un- them to assemble In the council room end, immediately rescind the order cancelling the license, Was Without' Jurisdiction. The grounds upon which the decision rests follows almost precisely the argument advanced by T.

J. Doyle in Kupport of the application of the writ. He referred to the provision of the Slocumb law which compelled the boards to revoke the license when the proprietor was found guilty in a criminal prosecution of a violation of the rules. The provision was mandatory, he said, and in the absence of a iif-f erent procedure as laid down by excise board rules governed the case of Mr. Hollingworth.

This view was accepted by Judge Stewart' in his ruling in the case. "There must be a specific provision for the procedure to be followed'ln the revocation of the license," Judge Stewart declared. "The law in this state is well settled in regard to the Slocumb law. In the absence of express rules by village or city boards regulating the saloon business, the law itself governs. Here there was no special provision for the revocation of a license and the natural procedure must be when the case has been passed upon by a criminal court." Can Adopt New Ruli, The effect of the decision is not such as would leave the board unprotected in dealing' with violations.

Even in the Hollingworth case should the matter be brought before a court of proper Jurisdiction under a criminal proseeu- tlon and had the proprietor been found guilty, there ts not the slightest doubt but that under the ruling of Judge Stewart it would then be mandatory upon the excise board to reveie the license. Or should the excise board still desire to pass upon the question of fact as-to-whether there has been a violation of the law or not all that it needs' to do is to pass a rule prescribing the procedure by which li will revoke licenses. Then a revocation under such a rule would be lawful and sustained by the courts. ki 1 1 ft 4 -1 -r vv tl I manv 1 Bi-vao. City Clerk Fred C.

Foster filed a motion for a new trial immediately after the ruling of the court granting the writ of mandamus and permitting Mr. Hollingsworth to reopen his saloon, claiming that the case Bhould not have been heard inasmuch as there wAS a question of fact to be determined by a Jury. He asked for an ew trial on court overruled the motion and Mr. Foster indicated that he will carry the case to the supreme court in order to secure a ruling. While an appeal is pending Hollingworth will have the right of operating his saloon.

Immediately as soon as the decision was announced, Attorney Murfln on behalf of his client appeared at the ctiy clerk's office and fialroil that a meet ntr rt the hnaril dp had to put in operation the order of the court. The order had not been served up until noon and. bo no, meeting had been held. The decision was not unexpected. The city relied upon the provision In the license prescribing the penalty for a violation of the rules of a board and the general provisions of the excise board rules.

Although It was claimed that the decision conflicted wtlh the ruling of Judge Cornish a few weeks ago in the remonstrance cases, the two are entirely harmonious, each judge simply affirming the Slocumb law the governing statute in saloon matters in the absence of express ordinances or board rules. Hollingsworth Reinstated The excise board met Monday afternoon at the city hall and, acting tinder the order from the district court, reinstated Mr. Ilollinsworth to operate his saloon. The board will meet again Tuesday afternoon. TEXAS "DRYS" MAY OVERRIDE THE LAW Texas Legislature Convenes and May Pasa Stat Prohibition Measure.

Houston, Texas, July 31. With the liquor question overshadowing every other topio discussed, the Texas legislature met in special session today.

The general belief here is that the alliance between the senate democrats and Insurgents wlll result in the pasting of the farmers' free list bill and thus put another up to the president. The plan now Is to strike out the features of the bill objectionable to the farmer, such as free meat and flour. Many regular republicans rejoice at the predicament of the insurgents from agricultural sections. They believe these progressives will be afraid to fmltide free meats from Argenthie and the Australian swamp country. The common belief here among democratic and Insurgent leaders is thai in order to get the support of Chairman Penrose of the senate finance committee, for reciprocity, President Taft promised to veto any other tariff legislation this session.

James Wlcker-shaw, delegate in congress from Alaska, stated to the house judiciary committee today that he had consented to act as attorney for the Guggenheim Alaska interests in 1908 for 319,000 a year. proposition was made to him by Stephen Burk, a representative of the Northwestern commercial company, "If they had paid what I asked, I would have been their attorney," said Mr. Wickersham, "and I think I would have saved them a whole lot of trouble." Iolegate Wickersham testified that th eGuggenheims "practically own the governmen of Alaska and they have acquired everything else that'was loose aroil hd yffr-fec-- Attorney Wickersham said the marshal fee system, complained of as "graft," had been thoroughly bad, but entirely legal and they had abolished the system.

The question of the insufficiency of what the delegate declared was proof that the attorney general purposely shielded and defended Alaskan syndicate criminals against punishment" arose, Representative Sterling suggested that Delegate Wickersham's charges indicated only failure of depart-emnt of Justice to prosecute. "Oh he has gone way beyond that" interrupted Attorney General Wickersham. "Yes" said Delegate Wickersham, "I insist there was a deliberate attempt to protect." The delegate declared that United States Marshal H. K. Love, who figured In the Cunningham coal land cases, had discharged a deputy named Bowers, who was also Jailor at Kodlak, because he "would not give up the graft." "He wouldn't pay Love $100 a month out of what he received for the board of prisoners," the delegate explained.

Delegate Wickersham, a republican, reviewed his attempts to have the department of Justice move against D. H. Jarvis, of the Alaska syndicate and J. H. Bullock, of the John J.

Sesnor company, for alleged conspiracy on government coal contracts whereby he alleges the government lost 150,000. The delegate charged that federal officials In Alaska had been bribed. Representative Howland of Ohio demanded that he prove that statement. "I will before I finish," declared the delegate. Delegate Wickersham discussed the attitude of the attorney gt-neral on the charges of the coal frauds of which he said he had submitted proof to the attorney general's department In 1908.

"Do you believe thut the evidence you have submitted is proof that the attorney general shielded these people T' askd Representative Littleton of New York "I do; don't you?" "I do not," Mr. Littleton emphatically declared. Several mombers of the Judiciary committee objected to tha wide range of Delegate Wickersham's chargf-s. "ins charges against the attorney general were publicly made," said Mr. Littleton, "and tha failure or success of his attempt to prove his charge ought to be Just as public.

Delegate Wickersham declared he did not withdraw any of his charges. The committee decided to let him sub mit all pr.snible evidence designed to substantiate such charges. Reach Evanaville.

GUGGENHEIMS FAVORS RECALL THE SUPREME Oklahoman Would Put of Federal Judges to Voters Action Up Declares People Are No Tur bulent Mob and Can Reason Wisely Washington, D. July 31. Severe criticism of the supreme court of the United States marked the speech of Senator Owen of Oklahoma, vho -nd- vocated before the senate today the adoption of his bill providing for the election and recall of federal Judges. This bill provides that any Justice of the supreme court or any Judge of any other United States court shall be subject to rernll by a resolution of congress; thut air district" and cirtiiit Judges of the United States shall be elected by the voters of the district or circuit and that their ten tiro of of-lice be four yeura. Answering the contention of nppon ents of the recall of Judges that- the electorate would not be so conservative in the exercise of power of recall as would, the nat iona.1 -legislature the- state legislatures, Senator Owen said that the electorate of the American states is abundantly conservative nnd moves more slowly than its progressive representatives would move.

The people, he maintained, have bon trained to give the benefit of the doubt to anyone assailed, and when in doubt they will always vote no. People Hafe Bean Right. Never during tho ten years that the right of recall 1ms existed in Oregon, said the speaker, have the people availed themelvea of IL agalnat a Judge, "although there Is one case pending there now whlrh undoubtedly will be decided wisely by the people." The reactionary argument that 'he people are turbulent, mild and visionary, unduly, passionate, comprising an Irresponsible mob, not fit for power, was held by the speaker to comej with poor grace from those who hold their honors, dignities and salaries of tli-se same people. Stress was laid upon the popular sentiment that senators should be chosen by direct vote of the The senator held that if the people have injustice enough to elect senators and members of tho house, they would not be lacking In that quality if it should come to the election or recall of a Judge. "If the power of recall exists," said Senator Owen, "the conduit of Judges will be so exemplary, so satisfactory to the people of the United Stntes ihat recall of any federal judge would never be necessary, "The moment the recall went Into effect the courts would promptly discontinue their unauthorized, unconstitutional and grossly Improper conduct of declaring an act of congress unconstitutional.

"The federal courts would no longer, because of their views of public policy, amend acts of congress by Inserting words In Important statutes which congress had refused to Insert, as the supreme court did In the Standard Oil case and In the tobacco trust case." The recall, the senator arguod, Is Justified by ronton and common sense. He could not see why anyone should insist that a Judge, Infirm, disabled, feeble, decrepit and worn out, should not be recalled, except by impeachment. The recall, he maintained, Is a much milder system than- Impeachment and may remove a Judge without disgrace. Criticises tha Courts. Criticising the courts, tho speaker aald that the fourteenth amendment, Intended to protect the negro, had been twisted from its purpose to protect the trusts and monopolies In Imposing long hours of labor upon employes on the absurd theory that to deny the em- fdoyes the right to work long hours a denial of their constitutional "privileges." The speaker dwelt upon the declaration of the supreme court of the United Stntes that the Income tax law of some sixteen years ago was unconstitutional.
