Supreme Court J!fi« Favors
Constitutional Amendment.

LAW PROTECTS -SHIPMENTS
At Present Police Powers of States
Cannot Attach Liquor Shipment at
Any Point of Its Journey.
Washington, D, C.—The only hope
of securing absolute prohibition iu
states which desire prohibition is for
congress to pass a constitutional
amendment making liquor & special
class in interstate commerce, accord
ing to Mr. Justice Harlan of the |
supreme court of the United States.
In discussing the Wilson law and
its interpretation by the supreme
court, he would not, of course, ex
press an opinion on any pending mat
ter of legislation. Mr, Justice Har
lan said that under‘this law a man
is protected in his, right to order
liquor for his own use from outside
of the state, to have it delivered to
his door, and to 'use it, 80 long as
does not interfere with the rights otl
others,
He was quite positive that the. po
lice powers of the state could not at
tach to the liquor shipment at any
point of the journey, either inside or
outside the borders of the state. The
states, he said, might under their po
lice laws, forbid the importation of
diseased food supplies, infected cattle
or any article that would endangerl
the health and morals of the people.
But, he. pointed out, liquors were still
considered, under the federal consti
tution, legitimate articles of com
merce, and as long as they were SO
considered they could not be made
contrabrand by the states.
This declaration of the venerable
jurist, who has sat on the supreme
court bench for thirty-two years, wul
be a.blow to those who believe that
congress can give to the state power
conferred solely upon congress, under
\he constitution; or, in other words,
can authorize a state, in the exercisel
of its police powers, to seize a ship-,
ment of liquor which a citizen is im
porting from another state for ‘“con
sumption, storage and use.”
Asked if the legislature of a state
could, in his opinion, pass a law mak
ing it illegal for a person to have in
his possession, even for his own use,
a stated supply of ilquors, Mr. Jus
tice Harlan was inclined to the belief
that a state legislature could not limit |
the amount of liquor a man might
have on hand.
The power to regulate interstate
commerce is lodged by the constitu
tion in congress. Liquors have all
along been, and are yet, regarded as
legitimate articles of commerce. Until
the protection granted liquors under
the interstate commerce clause of the
constitution is specifically withdrawn, |
no state has the right to seize and
condemn such shipments, This is the
reasoning of Mr. Justice Harlan.
He said the Wilson law of 1890 did
not interfere with the right of a citi
zen in any state to have liguor ship
ped to him. Furthermorex the liquor
must be actually “delivered.” If a
citizen of Georgia, for instance, can
order liquor from outside the state
and receive it to his own use—and
here comes the extreme point in his
argument—he declared it as his be
lief that the officers of a state could
not afterwards step in and seize such
shipments, even under a state law.
For a state law, to authorize such an
interference, he thought would be un
constitutional. :
While a state may not at present
interfere with a citizen’s right to
have liquor in his possession for his
own use, it unguestionably has the
right 'to prevent the sale, keeping at
one’'s place of. business for the pur
pose of sale or giving such liquor
away to induce trade. . |
As to the question of C. O. D. ship
ments, or the introduction ‘of liquori
into a dry state in original packages,
Mr. Justice Harlan said the interstate
commerce character of such ship
ments and the protection thereby en
. joyed, ceased the moment the liquor
was received and became mixed witn
{he mass of goods in the state. When
the original package was broken up,
the liquor could not .then be sold
_without violating the law

AN INTERESTING PAINT TEST.
There is a very simple and inter
esting chemical test by which to de
tect impurity in paint materials.
Thousands and thousands of people
all over the country are making this
test. It is a sure way to safeguard
against the many adulterated white
leads which are on the market. Any
one can make the test—all that is
needed is a simple little instrument
which can be had free by writing Na
tional Lead Company, 1902 Trinity
Building, New York, and asking for
Houseowners’ Painting Outfit No. 49.
The Outfit also includes a book .of
color schemes for exterior or interior
painting, or both if you wish, and a
set of specifications. No houseowner
should make any arrangements for
painting till he gets this outfit.
One can't expect a satisfactory
painting job without pure white lead.
There is a way to make sure you're .
getting a pure white lead—without
testing it. See that the keg bears
National Lead Company’s famous
Dutch Boy Painter trademark, which
is a positive guaranteeof purity. Your
dealer probably has this white lead.
If not let National Lead Company
know. L

THIS LETTER IS WORTH READING. I
“Gentlemen:—For five weeks 1 suffered |
intensely from a bad case of LEczema, which |
covered my chest, stomach, back and both |
arms. After trying three physicians and |
one skin specialist, and by actual count |
twenty-nine different ointments and lo- ;
tions, I accidentally learned of Hancock's i
Sulphur Compound and Ointment. As | |
was willing to try anything once, 1 pur- |
chased a bottle of the Liguid and Oint- E
ment. The first application gave me in
stant relief from that awful itching in- '
flamed surface of my skin. 1 persistently |
used this remedy for one week and at the }
end of that time I had hardly a trace of
the eruption on my person. If any reader
questions this testimonial as not being
