L. Babcock) CHEYENNE, Wyo., July 23.—Did Wyoming actually go dry on the first dav of the present month, or is it still legally wet? Opinions differ. Some one has discovered what some people believe to be 2 joker in the laws passed by the 1919 that the saloonkeepers of the state may, if they wish, and if their fel- low townsmen wish, go back to the A man who has served Wyoming! as attorney geners] and who has made a study of such matters but who does not wish his name to be used in this connection is of the opinion that chap- ter 50 of the 1919 session laws pro- vides that Wyoming shall remain wet until next January, when national pro- hibition takes effect. This chapter reads: “An act to amend anf re-enact paragraph 9 of section 1578 of Wyo- ming compiled statutes, 1910, relat- ing to the licensing and regulation of occupations by incorporated towns. “Be it enacted by the legislature of the State of Wyoming: “Section 1, That paragraph 9 of section 1578 of Wyoming compiled statutes, 1910, be amended and re- enacted to read as follows “‘Ninth. To license, tax and reg. ulate, suppress, and prohibit hucksters, peddlers, pawnbrokers, keepers of taverns, hotels, soft drink parlors, theatrical exhibitions, shows and amusements, and to revoke such licenses; at pleasure; also to heonse and regulate or forbid the le of spirituous and intoxicating "quors within such town or within one mile of the outer boundaries thereof avd to revoke such license at pleasure.’ “Section 2.

And, vs this n, it means that these tow; and cities are still empowered to li- cense and regulate the open saloon. Chapter 25 of the session laws is the Hardin bill providing for prohibi- tion on and after June 30. Two of its sections read: “Section 43.

If the Amer- ican army is demobilized by October, as has been predicted, and if congress does not show more speed than it has shown in dealing with prohibition leg- islation, all states which are now al- lowing the sale of beers and wines, may be allowed, by presidential proc- lamation, to setl whiskies and other hard drinks from the time of demob- ion until constitutional prohi' n takes effect And, iv some Wyo- saloonkeeper—or ex-saloon- should say—wishes that the is evide: thru the we keep start a test action, he may lowed to keep open until next Jan- uary.
