Roseburg Brewery to Lose Its
Charter for Selling Real
Liquor as Imitation.
PROMINENT MEN AFFECTED
Proceedings to Annul Corporation's
Right to Do Business Are Among
First of Kind on Coast and
Victory Is Xotable.
ROSEBURO, Or.. April 1. (Special.)
District Attorney George M. Brown,
of Koseburg, today won a notable vic
tory, when Judge Harris, of Lane
County, handed down a dtclslon. In
which he overruled the defendant's de
murrer to the plaintiff's complaint in
the case of the State against The Kose
burg Brewing & Ice Company. Inas
much as the plaintiffs complaint set
out a state of facts identical with the
evidence submitted in previous actions
which resulted in the conviction of the
manager and directors o fthe defending
company on charges of selling real
beer as "near" beer, today's decision
has the effect of annualltng the charter
of the brewery.
The action was brought by District
Attorney Brown following the convic
tion of the managers and directors of
the institution. The case was one of
the first of its kind Instituted and tried
on the Pacific Coast.
In his complaint against the brewery
asking for the annulment of its char
ter. District Attorney Brown eet out
that the defending company was a pri
vate corporation, existing and doing
business under the laws of Oregon.
The business of the brewery, as pro
vided by its charter, was to manufac
ture beer and ice and conduct a gen
eral brewery business.
Charter Terms Absurd, la Charge.
It was further alleged by the Dis
trict Attorney that when Doualas
County went "dry" as a whole, the
urewery produced two kinds of beer.
One product was known as "near" beer
and was sold to the trade in "drv" ter
ritory. The other product was genuine
Deer, which the brewing company pre
tended It was shipping Into "wet" ter
ritory for disposition. The District At
torney charged that large quantities
of real beer had been sold In "dry"
territory, thereby abusing the terms of
me company a charter.
The brewery continued to manufac
ture and sell these products until July
3. 1913. when the District Attorney and
Sheriff caused a raid to be made on the
co-called "near" beer resorts operating
In the city. Considerable beer was con
fiscated which upon being analyzed
was shown to contain sufficient alco
hol to make It Intoxicating and make
Its sale a violation of the local option
laws. Warrants were Issued and the
managers and directors of the brewery
were arrested, convicted and ftned.
Drltidaata An ProKlarmt.
At the time of the trials evidence
was Introduced showing that the "near'
beer was sold in bottles, while the
genuine article was kept and sold on
tap. The managers and directors of
the brewery were men of prominence
ana were Influential in local affairs.
but District Attorney Brown prose
cuted them ii vigorously as lie ever
did any law violator. After obtaining
convictions District Attorney Brown
llled an action to annul the charter of
the brewery. le averred that the fact
that the directors and managers of the
brewery had been convicted of violat
ing the local-option laws In connection
with operating the brewery showed
conclusively that the brewery had mis
used Its charter. The District Attorney
set out the specific violations on which
the managers and directors were con
vlctcd and fined. These included many
sales to a nair aozen or more "near"
uerr resort, proprietors, some or whom
testined at the time of the trial.
The annulment proceedings have
been closely watched and the success
ful termination of the suit is regarded
as a big victory for the prosecution
The case was handled lone-handed by
District Attorney Brown.
When Interviewed today regarding
the decision of Judge Harris, Mr.
Broun had nothing to say further
than he believed the ruling verified
the contention of the prosecution as to
the law applicable to the facts in such
cases.
