constitute a separate offense. The acceptance, receiving, car-
rying, transferring, handling, delivery or distribution of intoxi-
cating liquor under false or fictitious names in an anti-saloon
territory shall work a forfeiture of such liquor. It is further
expressly provided, that no provision of this section is intended
er shall be construed to violate or be in conflict with any provi-
sion of the Constitution and laws of the United States respect-
ing interstate commerce, but this section and all parts of same
are intended to prohibit the acceptance, receiving, carrying,
transferring, handling, delivery or distribution, as herein pro-
vided, of intoxicating liquor to such extent only as the same is
not expressly permitted under the Constitution and laws of
the United States. If any provision of this section shall be
held to be void or unconstitutional, it is hereby provided that
all other portions of same which are not expressly held to be
void or unconstitutional shall continue in full force and effect.

SEC. 21. And be it further enacted, That all prosecutions
for violations of this Act, which are hereby declared to be mis-
demeanors, may be either upon presentment or indictment, or
by trial before a justice of the peace having criminal jurisdic-
tion, who shall have jurisdiction original and concurrent with
the Circuit Court for Washington county; and the said justice
shall have the power to issue all process, and to do all Acts
which may be necessary to the exercise of his said jurisdiction,
and may try and determine all cases whereof he may have juris-
diction, and may pronounce judgment and sentence therein in
the same manner and to the same extent as the Circuit Court
of Washington county could do in such cases, if such cases were
tried before said court without the intervention of a jury; pro-
vided, however, that if any person, when brought before any
justice having jurisdiction of the case, shall, before trial for the
alleged offense, pray a jury trial, or if the State's Attorney for
said county, shall, before trial of such alleged offense, pray a
jury trial on the part of the State, it shall be the duty of such
justice to commit such alleged offender for trial, or to hold him
to bail to appear for trial in the Circuit Court for Washington
county, if it be in session, or at its next session, if it be not in
session, and to return said commitment or recognizance, with
the names and residences of the witnesses for the prosecution
endorsed thereon, forthwith to the clerk of said court; and the
justice before whom the case is brought shall, in every such
case, inform the person charged of his right to a jury trial.

SEC. 22. And be it further enacted, That in all prosecutions
under this Act, by indictment or otherwise, it shall not be neces-
sary to state the kind of liquor sold, nor to describe the place
where sold, nor to show the knowledge of the principal to con-
