Indiana Supreme Court Backs County Local Option Law
By a three to two vote the Indiana Supreme Court ruled the county option law constitutional. Justice Hadley wrote the opinion, joined by Justices Monks and Myers, with Montgomery and Jordan dissenting. The decision upholds state liquor regulation while noting it does not suspend laws by popular vote. The ruling ties into upcoming political lines and cites comparable state high courts. It affirms the conviction of George McPherson for selling whisky in violation of the law.
