Exceptions before sentence from Jackson; Parkinson, J. Carl Eberle and Stephen H. Carrol were convicted of violating the local-option law.

1Opinion of the CourtMcAlvay, J.

Respondents were convicted under the local-option law, adopted and in force in Jackson county, upon a charge that they “did manufacture brewed, malt, and intoxicating liquors, to wit, beer,” contrary to the provisions of said law. The case is before this court upon exceptions before sentence.

The facts are not in dispute. No question is raised but that the local-option law, prohibiting, among other things, the manufacture of brewed, malt, and intoxicating liquors, was, at the time charged, in force in said county. It is admitted that respondents did manufacture the beer in question.
