Prohibition has been estaldshed In every atute to the Union by direct legislative enactment, but there lus been appended to the prohibitory statute a provision authorizing some local Itonrri or officer to suspend the prohibition by selling licenses to saloon keepers to engage In the business of sidling liquor, all of which means that a license Is merely a suspension of the jirohihltlun which must otherwise, prevail.""
