West Virginia. and lndiau Territory do not fix the amount of due the good behavior of the convicted druukard. if the offender fail to pro vidc the prescribed security he may be imprisoned. The Arkansas statute authorizes the corrupting magistrate to require surely of the intoxicated indiv- idual for good behavior and for keep- ing the peace not exceeding one year in default of security the drunkaid may he committed for a period ntl ex ceediag thirty days. Another provis ion of the Arkansas luw vests in Pro bate Courts power to appoint and to exercise siipcrinteudiug control over guardians to take care of habitual drnukards in West Virginia any person found intoxicated at or near a polling place on election day may be fined from $10 to $50. or required to give security for not more than six months. Failing to give the bond. he shall be imprisoned from five to tworrty days. in ludian Territory the drunken person may be arrested and "confined until he be comes duly sober." and the Magistrate is empowered to exact security for good behavior and keeping the peace. in sixteen states the penalty for in- toxication is fine or imprisonment.

"' Delaware fixes a fine of 50 cents for intoxication. in lllinois ill“ fine ranges from $20 to 310.0, and the term of imprisonment from ten days to six months. Iowa au- thorizes a line of from $5 to $25 and a. lull sentence not to exceed thirty days. but provides that the offender may ob- “tain his discharge by disclosing iu~ formation where the liquor was Obtain- ed and by giving bail to appear as a witness against the seller. The seller may be compelled to pny‘ ”reasonable , compensation for the care of an lntox . looted helium. and ciiil damages may also be exacted from the dealer.
