City Council Overstepped Powers Warned By Incorporation Act
The general incorporation act does not authorize a city council to pass the challenged ordinance. It allows fines up to 200 dollars and up to six months imprisonment, while license forfeiture is not a fine or jail term. The dram shop act restricts penalties for saloonkeepers selling to minors without parental written requests, and the ordinance punished sellers or drivers regardless, contravening the statute. Matthia was discharged, a win for saloonkeepers.
