Railway Company Enforces Prohibition

PROHIBITION work is done by the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha Railway Company, who stipulate in their deeds conveying village property along the line of the Northern Wisconsin road that "no strong, spirituous, malt, ardent or intoxicating liquors shall ever be sold, manufactured, trafficked, given away, or otherwise disposed of as a beverage," on pain of annulling the instrument, and reverting the property thus used, contrary to the terms of conveyance, to the original owners.
