424. All prosecutions for violations of the provisions of
this sub-title of this article, which are hereby declared to be
criminal offenses, may be either upon presentment and indict-
ment or by trial before a justice of the peace, who shall have
jurisdiction, original and concurrent with the Circuit Court for
said county, and the said justice shall have 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 jurisdiction, and may pronounce
judgment and sentence therein in the same manner and. to
the same extent as the Circuit Court for said county could do
in such cases, as if such cases were tried before said court
without the intervention of a jury; provided, however, that if
any person when brought before any such justice having juris-
diction 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 the trial of such alleged offense, pray a jury trial
on the part of the State, it shall be the duty of any justice
to commit such alleged offender for trial, or to hold the said
offender to bail to appear for trial in the Circuit Court for
the said county at its then session, if it be then in session, or at
its next session, if it be not then in session, and to return said
commitment or recognizance, with the name and residence of
the witnesses for the prosecution endorsed thereon, forthwith
to the clerk of said court; and the justice before whom the case
is tried shall inform the person charged of his right to a jury
trial.

425. In any indictment under this sub-title of this article
for violations of the provisions of the preceding sections there-
of, it shall not be necessary to specify the particular kind of
liquor which any person, house, company, association or body
corporate, bartered, sold or gave away, or solicited or received
orders for the purchase of, or kept deposited or had. with
intent to barter, sell or give away, or that the same be bartered,
sold or given away in violation of said provisions, but it shall
be sufficient if the indictment sets forth that the traverser
bartered, sold or gave away, or solicited or received orders for
the purchase of, or kept deposited or had, with intent to barter,
sell or give away spirituous or fermented liquors or intoxicat-
ing drinks, or with intent that the same be bartered, sold or
given away in violation of said provisions.
