At the Central firehouse there were men who abandoned their holiday recreation so as to be on hand to answer any call for duty, and Captain Tom Brown and his police force were also in readiness for any emergency.

Delegation at Wickford—Death of John A. —_— Mass.,, where he served until August, 1916, when he was detailed to the ordinance department and stationed at Watertown arsenal, Massachusetts. It is declared illegal to send any mail matter into Rhode Island con- taining any solicitation of liquor pa- tronage or sale. Official notice has been received that the entire state comes within the federal law, throush a rullng made by Herbert A. Rice, attorney general of the state. Al- though only a few towns voted no- license, Mr. Rice has ruled that the solicitation of liquors, at any place except the particular establishment which holds a license, is contrary to Rhode Island law. Section 63 of chapter 123 of the general laws, upon which the state attornev general based his opinion, is as follows: “Every person who shall personally or through an agent solicit any order for the sale of any ale, wine, rum or other strong or mait liquors, or any mixed liquors, a part of which is ale, wine, rum or other strong or malt li- quors, except at the particular loca- tions where persons are authorized by license to seli the same, either at wholesale or retail, shall be fined $20 with all costs of prosecution and con- viction, and be imprisoned in the county ail for 10 days” When the department asked Mr. Rice about the law relating to solici- tation, he quoted the section, and in answer to a further request stated that in his opinion the law meant that solicitation was prohibited in all no- license places, and at every place in a license community except at the particular establishments which held licenses to sell intoxicating liquors. The post office department has, ctherefore, construed the -law as pro- hibiting the general solicitation of li- quor patronage and sale, and has des- ignated Rhode Island as one of the so-called “bone-dry” states in so far as the new federal law concerning ad- vertising and mails, is concerned. Under the new federal law, which became operative last Sunday, no let- ter, postal card, circular, newspaper, pamphlet, or publication of any kind, containing liquor advertisements or solicitation for orders for liquors, shall be deposited in or carried by the United States mails in the territory affected, nor shall they be delivered by any letter carrier. The penalties for a violation of the law are heavy, ineluding a fine of $1,000. or six months imprisonment. or both. The ruling which Attorney Gener Rice has given to the po: office de- partment concerning solicitation in Rhode Island, ex ins why the fed- eral government has desiznated this state as one of the wholly dry i tories, although only a small number of its towns have voted no-license. When the section of the Rhode T and law dealing with solicitation was considered by the federal authorities Rice was asked if the words ar locations” referred to the municipalities, to the exact loca- tion of the license. He replied that the Rhode Island courts have not heen lled upon to rule on that muestion, it that in his opinion the words re- fer to the exact location of the license and not to the municipality.
