Snyder & A decision affirmed by the supreme court in reference to the license of bottlers that establishes a precedent not observed through out all the counties of the commonwealth has just been placed in circular form by the Auditor Gen. and mailed toevcry judge, district attorney and county treasurer in the state. The opinion was rendered in the case of the commonwealth against Henry Flacke, of Warren, a bottle who was indicted for selling without license. The defendant had a county license and was engaged in selling beer and other malt liquors from pint and quart bottles. Judge Brown, in his charge, which has been affirmed by the supreme court said : Now, unless there is a special provision in the law for the granting of li censes to bottlers to which attention has not been called, we take it that the license must be granted by the court, as is provided by this section of the act of 1575. Section 4, of the act of 1875, provides "Tnat any sale made of vinous, spiritous, malt or brewed liquors, or any admixture thereof, contra ry to the provisions of this law, shall be tak en to be a misdemeanor, and upon the con viction tf the offense in the court of quarter sessions of the peace of any city or county, the person so offending shall be sentenced to pay a fine," etc. From the examination of the acts referred to, we are of the opinion that the license issued by the treasurer to the defendant as a bottler did not, and does not. authorize him to make sale of malt and brewed liquors by the single quart and pint bottle, as desired by the purchasers, and that in doing so he Is guilty as charged In the in dictment with selling malt and brewed liquors without license. AVe are strengthen ed in this conclusion by the consideration of the extreme care taken by the legislature, in guarding the public against the abuse and dangers incident to the unrestricted retail traffic in malt and brewed, as well as spiritu ous liquors. The applicant for an eating house or restaurant license to sell malt or brewed liquors must be a citizen of the I'ni tel States, He must give notice of his ap plication. He must come into court endors ed by twelve of his fellow citizens as a man of temperate habit, and ol good moral char acter. It must appear by certificate that such license is necessary, and before the li cense is granted he must give bond with sureties, conditioned for the faithful ob servance of the law regulating the sa! of this kind of liquor. But if the law, as claim ed by the counsel for the defendant in this case be correct, then any and every person citizen or non-citizen, temperrte or intem perate, honest or dishonest, may engage in the business of selling malt or brewed liquors by the drink, simply by paving the treasurer the sum of $oo, provided, only that the drink shall be furnished in a bottle in stead of a glass. We think that such not the law, and say to you that umler the ad mitted facts of the ca.-j" the defendant is guilty a charged in the fourth count in the dictment." luder the above it is now construed by the auditor general that bottlers must take out a license once a year, as do hotel and restaurant- keepers, and through the same channels, MAKHIKI).
