MADISON, Wis., Nov. 17. Senu- :r l.u Follette's magazine, with a .full commentary on the repent elec tion, is out today.

Heroines l.nw on January 1 City I May Hold tin Klectloii on Liquor Vilest ion in April. SALEM, Or.. Nov. 16. Several opinions dealing with the effect of the Home Rule amendment on the local option law were handed down by Attorney General Crawford today. In response to inquiries from L. W. linker. Mayor of Grass Valley, the Attorney General holds that a county which is "dry" and votes "wet" will become "wet" January 1, 1911. Al though there is no sneclllc statement as to time in this respect, the local option law places January 1 ns the time when a county shall become "dry" In case it votes in favor of prohibition. It is Inferred from this that the law would also work In versely. The Attorney-General holds that the Home Rule amendment will prob ably take effect January 1 In the case of a county and city voting "wet." The council can then proj ceed without another vote. When a precinct, votes "dry" nnd the eonntv votes "wet." the precinct will remain dry. says the Attorney-General. Answering C. L. Treland, of Moro.. the Attorney-General says a city may call an election, specific or regular. In April to vote on. the question of t. or "dry" under the Homo Rule amendment. He holds further that i precinct vote cannot deprive n city of n constitutional right granted at the same election. No part of a pre cinct outside of the city limits can be allowed to vote on the question of prohibition so that It shall affect the people within the limits of n cor porate city or town, and It shall be the duty of the County Court to re district the precincts so that they shall Include no part of the incorpor ated city in voting on prohibition. Replying to a question put by J. D. Walch, of Joseph, the Attorney-General says that as soon as the Gover nor issues a proclamation declaring the Home Rule amendment a law. Joseph will have the exclusive right to say whether liquor shall be sold in Its corporate limits. In the case or Joseph the county voted "dry" nnd Joseph voted "wet." The Attorney-General says it shall he the duty of the County Court to issue an order placing prohibition in effect in the county, but. the Home Wule amendment will except Joseph rrotn the order of the court declaring the county e,iry" nnd the city may provide by ordinance what shall be required of any person conducting n saloon within the city limits. A vote on local option within the cor pornto limits may also he called. ty City Attorney W. C. Benbow be llevfw ho has discovered one large and vital (law in the Home Rule amendment which was passed by tin stale electorate last week,. Ho fl-ids In Ps provisions n requirement abso lutely perversive of the sovereign powers of the state, and Is cock-suif. that if the law ever went to a test before the court of last resort, 'be amendment would be knocked galley west. Briefly stated, Mr. Benbow main tains that the insertion of the word "exclusive" in the title of the act will be ItH undoing, in that the regu lation of the liquor traflic is a police power, nnd as such is a sovereign right of the cominonwenlth, and net to be lightly delegated away to any minor authority, such us a munici pality Is. The official title of the measure as passed Is aa follows: "A constitution al amendment giving to cities and towns exclusive power to license, reg ulate, control, suppress or prohibit the sale of Intoxicating liquors with in the municipality.' Had the word "exclusive" been omitted from the title, Mr. Benbow Is not so sure but that the measure might hold water, hut with that word Inserted, he says there is a direct conflict with the sovereign power of the state, which would not be tolerated under any re view the matter would receive in tha courts. "It is n, well known fact that the regulation, control, licensing, etc., of the liquor traflic within any city or i town is n police power," explained Deputy District Attorney Benbow this morning. "And ns a police pre rogative It is a sovereign power of the state. Therefore, I hold that the state either through the passage of such an act or by any other means cannot delegate away this sovereign power. There 1b not ix substantial doubt Hint the Supreme Court of the I'nlted States would ruin against the Home Rule measure on that ground. "If It were possible for t ho stnto to delegate away ono of lt sovereign powers to a minor municipality it could delegate away all the rest, of them and there would be ondless con fusion and chaos and conflict of au thority as between the state and the municipality. There are, of courBe, instances where certain police powers are delegated to the city authorities but when the Home Rule measure undertakes to grant exclusive nu thorltv over the liquor tratilc to the municipality. It overreaches Itself and I am confident the act will he held unconstitutional, U a fight Is made against it." KWKKT AI'I'I.K CIDKR J J. Dollvored ut your home on 4- order. Phone 44. Mrs. C.

Oregon, by capitalists of Montesnno, Wash., Is under way In that city. Legal steps have been taken to prevent Coos coanty being declared "dry." At the recent election the "drys" carried the county by 17 votes. Judge Sperry and Attorney A. S. Hammond have been engaged as counsel for the "wet" Interests. County Judge Hall has set November 21 us the date when he would de clare prohibition to be In force. An Injunction hns been served to re strain the County Judge from setting the "dry" date. It Is believed that the litigation will keep the saloons of the county open until the Home Rule law goeB Into effect. Technical errors in the petition for the Prohi bition vote In the county are grounds for the Injunction and It Is cited that Marshfleld has a charter which per mits control of saloons regardless of the county. .MOItF, lll'KY KNTF.Itl'RlHE.
