ERROR TO THE SUPREME COURT
OF THE STATE OF COLORADO

Syllabus

The right to sell liquor by retail depends upon the law of the state, which may affix conditions in granting the right, and one who accepts a license under the state law, or a municipal ordinance authorized thereby, is not deprived of his property or liberty without due process of law, within the meaning of the federal Constitution, by reason of conditions or prohibitions in the ordinance as to the sale of liquor in places where women are employed or permitted to enter.

The facts are stated in the opinion.
