, that all he needs to do is to secure
! the samples and show the district at

the two per cent. The law will be en
forced at once regardless of the fact
that the test case is now before the
supreme court.

attorney thinks there Is no doubt of
; this, that will stand as the first of
j fense and a second conviction will
mean a Jail sentence, for the law does
not permit of nn alternative.
