Validity of Ordinance Miiklns Con viction Kafier in "Blind l'ig"' Raids to Bo Tc.-ted. ALBANY. Or.. Dec. 19. (Special.) Albany's city ordinnnce which env bodies the provisions of the state local option llijuor law. and affords easier methods of securing convictions for violations than the state law, ia to be tested in the State Circuit Court. At torneys for Albert Peacock, who was arrested and fined undfr the provisions J of the ordinance, have given notice of appeal from tho City Recorder's Court to the State Circuit Court for Linn Otinty. It is said tho legality of the ordinance will be attacked in the higher court. 1'nder the state law evidence of the sales of liquor must be secured to in sure convictions and prosecuting; of ficers have encountered difficulty In securing; verdicts of guilty before Juries. Tho city ordinance provides for the confiscation of liquor and makes it evidence, so that when a big quan tity of liquor is captured in the pos session of an individual It Is very strong circumstantial evidence that a "blind pig" Is in operation. Since this ordinance went Into effect local of ficers have made three raids and have secured the conviction of all of the five men arrested in the raids. Accordingly, if this city 'ordinance s upheld In the courts It will afford of ficers an opportunity to keep a close watch on liquor vendors, and if it is declared unconstitutional officers will bo forced to secure specific evidence ot sales to get coji viccions. The Albany ordinance is very similar to the "nuisance ordinance" In force in Eucrene, and hence Is virtually on trial in the courts now for the Eugene or dinance was attacked and the matter is now before the Supreme Court of the state for docislon.
