The U. S. Supreme Court

May be Called on to Decide Ypsilanti Saloon Cases

An Ypsilanti dispatch to the Detroit Tribune says:

"The eight saloon men of the city who were bound over to the circuit court on the charge of violating the holiday closing law on the Fourth, are contemplating putting up a fight. They say that they have a straight tip that the liquor dealers of Grand Rapids who were arrested for the same offense will take a stand, and they are considering the advisability of going in with them. If the matter is taken up it will be a fight to a finish, and all on the legality of the state law. They hold that the present statute prohibiting the sale of liquor on legal holidays is a violation of the personal rights of the dealers and is hence unconstitutional. They say that the case will be taken to the United States supreme court."
