" JJrownVille's board of Couiu'ilmen
while it wils elected on the so dulled i
whisky ticket, and is regarded as
Boundly anti-tCmperanco will, it isj
duo tlio mombel'H to suppose, consider i
well before adopting any coUrdo simply
because asked to do so; and will not
thoughtlessly, heedlessly, or fevongfttl
ly take steps that cannot stand tho tent
of lawi therebv involving tho city in
law suits and expenses that inevitably
follow litigation The best lawyers of
tho State, so far its opinions have been
giveih concur in tho Into olllcial opinion
of tlen. Chas. 1 Mandcrson, city at
torney of Omaha, that licenso.1 under
tho old law are revoked the iniullto tho
now law boeohies operative. Wo quote
the following extract from den. Man-
derson's published opinion, which gives
tho reason why the granting of a
license ia not a contract, and quoting
Bolnt) oilthorltled sustaining that point.
Gen. Mandersott sa'rtS
It la further" my opinion that all
HfrtitHP IssUcil Under fnilUUr lawrt bo
come Valueless When tho new liquor
law takes I'ffoct. 'lhrt licensing of tho
sale of liquor id a matter of police reg
ulation rathui1 than a matter of revenue.
The" one Who takes it llcunao to engage
in a tratlle that is recognized ila one
that the legislature may restrain or
prohibit, makes it subject lo tiioenango
of increased license tax, on enlarged
penalties, or entire prohibition. Tliero
can no no coniraci or vesica ngia
'lowing from tho granting of such
a license.
Upon this very interesting proposi
tion tho decisions of the courts havo
been almost uniform. 1 quote from
Cooloy on taxation in support of my
position.
"Licenses uko an oiuer siauuory
privileges are subject to bo determined
bv changes in tho laws, as a liquor
license, for instance, is terminated by
a law totally prohibiting sales." Pago
414.
1 quote also a Massachusetts caso
that is directly in point.
"A license to retail spirituous
liquors granted for one year, and for
which tho licensed lias paid one dollar
to tho clerk of tho board of public
dlucefs which issued it, as required by
statute, is not a contract; and is anull
ed by tho passage, within the year, of
act prohibiting all sales of intoxicating
Honors." Fifth Gray "i)7.
An interesting question to arise
hereafter, is whether those whoso
licenses aro annulled by legislative en
actment can recover back any part of
tho license money paid by thorn. It
Would seem eouitablo that they should
bo permitted to do so.Jmtby tho same
reasoning that I urgo above, viz: That
tho licensed assumes all risks of the
legislature increasing his burdens, or
prohibiting tho traillc wholly, it seems
to mo that such recovery back can
not be had.
Our advice has not been sought by
tho city father, but wo havo some to
give, all tho same: That tlioy do not
grant any saloon license that will con
flict with tho law to Uiko effect on tho
first day of Juno. Wo cannot believe
that any one of tho council construes
his obligations to the party that elected
him to transcend tho bounds of decen
cy, common senso and tho probable
construction of tho law. The sido of
safety would bo to mako applicants for
licenses wait until Ue new law takes
effect. IsTo ono should find fault with
such a course. Saloonists should bo
satisfied and tho most radical prohib
itionist will bo content ao long as the
law is strictly conformed to. We
mako theso suggestions, and call the
especial attention of tho council to
them, in view of tho fact that while
tho advocates of saloons have won the
city government, it was no unanimous
thing, tho parties on tho temperance
mauo boincr about enually divided, and
tho temperauco people ask that respec
table consideration duo a powerful
minority, and if courteous asking will1
not do, that powerful minority will
enforce its rights up to tho exact spirit
and mtentof tho law. And it will
transpire wlion tho morgoncy comes
that tho law abiding portion of this
city will bo equal to tho task of sus
taining the law. These remarks may
bo sneered at as threats, but wo make
them as facts and warning, and for the
good object of preserving as mucli good
will and poaoe amongst our peoplo on
the saloon question as may be.
In his charge to the Grand Jury,
Judge Gaslin, most emphatically, ad
vised them to keep hands off of all
minor offenses, holding Hurt any case
cognizable by tho lov or courts, cannot
with any propriety be, originally,
brought in tho district court. When
ho told them, however, that tho Grand
Jury was an unmitigated nuisance,
we do not undcrhtanii tunc tie meant to
cast any reflections upon tho good
citizens who .composed this particular
grana jury. Jleaver City Times.
