Garrett county local option bill aims at dry status with bonds
The Garrett County local option bill would require licenses to issue only with bonds covering damages to a drinker’s family. The measure could effectively keep the county dry regardless of vote, reflecting parallels to the Nebraska case where a saloonkeeper faced damages for serving a drunk. The Supreme Court declined to intervene, citing no federal questions. A woman had previously recovered damages from a saloon keeper.

Holmes says mine rescue at New River is slow due to a clogged shaft. A 15 year old, Cloyd Martin, died from injuries after a saw accident in a Terra Alta area sawmill, his arm severed.
