300 and another intoxicated man found lying in the front scat of n car with the engine running could only be fined for drunkenness and the owner of the car was drunk too another got 20 or 30 days for infrac fions of the liquor hiw illegal possession of a bottle of alcohol was a charge that could not be substantiat d against one individual 200 for a can of alcohol and 50 from a mun that had no permit for home brew were more cases in this court a first offender w 10 or ten days and u third offender three months at the juil farm and the final case was a drug addict and what docs it all prove
