ritory side of the state. I he de-
cision holds that the Federal
liquor laws, of 11)07. are still in
low iii theold Indian Territory
Mile of t he state and the prohi-
bitionist are greatly elated over
the dt«cisioi?. Prior to statehood
no legal procedure was neces
sary in seiling liquors. The law
said liiey could not be there fqi
any purpose, and if the marshal
or bit; deputies found into*,
cants in freight depots or ex
press offices the bottles were
wheeled out and broken.
mi nt ot the law, as in the old
territOi ial days, is not known.
The decision in no way effects
the- enforcements of state pto-
hibition law in the ritate, courts.
