In the city court Saturday morning, Judge Brown handed down his decls- fon in the case against W. E. Ryan, charged with violation of the Sunday liquor law. In his finding he said: The accused is not presented on a charge of selling on a week day, but for a violation of the law on Sunday. The fact that the accused has his ap- peal now pending in the superlor court and that there has heen any un- reasonable delay in the hearing of that appeal ought not to prejudice the ccurt in the case on trial. The ques- tion here is, has the state proved its case? After reviewing the testimony he discharged the accused. He also said: Although it may not have very much to do with the ques- tion of gullt or innocence of the ac- cused and should be considered mainly iz determining the degree of punish- ment inflicted, if found guilty, I will make a brief statement concerning this| case: The accused was, prior to November 1, 1908, & ‘duly licensed dealer in spir- ituous and intoxicating liquors at 65 West Main street in this city. His license expired at that time. I un- derstand he made an application in proper form for a renewa] of his li- cense for the same place, which appli- cation was considered by the county commissioners as provided by statute. A remonstrance was filed by certain citizens on the ground that the appli- cant was an unfit person to be licensed and also that the location was im- proper for the sale of spirituous li- quors. Upon a full hearing, both sides ‘being represented by counsel, the com- missioners refused ‘o grant the li- cense, An appeal to the superior court was at once taken by the applicant and the case 1s now there upon the docket, sleeping as quietly as though it was the slzep of death, apparently with no one to molest or make afraid. The result is that the accused, being re- fused e license, has been doing busi- ness at the “old stand” for seven months. Now, If my sny publicity this case should be tried and the decision of the county commissioners sustained, then, whether or not this man, together with his bondsman, will contest lia- Lility to pay to the authorities any compensation for the past, remains to be seen, If they should succeed in avolding payment of any money ex- cept to their counsel, what will be the feeling of the regularly licensed deal- ers who have paid their money for a like privilege? The law as it has been applied in this case is nothing more than a farce, and no one can laugh more heartily at its defects than the accused in this case. What is the defect in this ecase, which has given Immunity from prose- cution to thils accused six days every week even months? The statutes places the hearing on such appeals in a preferred class be- fore a judge holding any regular term of court or before a judge in vacation to be called in for a speclal trial of the case, so that it would seem it was possible to have secured a court for a speedy tria]l of this case. ‘There seems to be one defect at least in the present statute—that it makes no provision for a prosecutor to look after the Interests of the public. It says the county commissioners or any taxpayer may enter in the case; but if they do this, they would natu ally subject themselves to the expens: of counsel; and any taxpayer so en- tering to defend, in the event of an adverse” decision, to a bill of costs. So the chances are, as In this case, that no one cares to go to the expense, of appearing in the case in opposition to the applicant for the license. Con- sequently, what has happened in this case is the ratural result. Of course, this applicant is easy, o long as he is allowed to continue his business un- mwolested, and his counsel will never urge the trial of the case because this is against the interests of his client. There is a remedy at least for this serious defect in the present law. If the applicant for the renewal of his license is to be allowed the right to continue in the business, until his ap- peal is heard, then it should be made the duty of the state’s attorney to en- terj and press the appeal to a speedy trial, looking out for the interests of the public. The public would then he spared the humiliation of suc ha farce as the present case presents.
