with selling liquor without "A license
In violation OF AN ordinance. which
was an appeal taken by the defendant
from the judgment Of Il Justice court =,
Judge Mayhcw on Saturday dismissed
the appeal on trivial technicality.
This case had occupied the court S at

Of the ground was holly contested by
I he attorneys on both sides, and great
interest was manifested in the case
by all the leading citizens Of Post
FANS, and many outsiders also. The
interest WIS ce,,cred on the point up-
on which the defense made the ST rong-
est fight. They Vigorously attacked
the legality Of he Incorporation of the
lllagc Of Post Falls. but the court
finally held that the Incorporate ion WAS
legal, and this proved 4 signal victory
for the law-abiding element ut Post
Fails, because il means that any ordin-
ance properly enacted by the council
may be strictly enforced. and the case
against Rover which has been dis
missed on technically will be taken
up again Immediately.
The ease against Rover was first
commenced in justice court II Post
Falls, but the defendant took change
Of venue to Justice Brophey's court at
Hayden lake whore triad before IA
jury resulted in his conviction. From
this Judgment the defendant took am
appeal to the district court. The facts
brought out III the Trial in the Justice
court and again while the appeal was
on trial In the district court, are most
interesting To all Who desire to see the
law enforced. The defendant conduct

attempt to secure a town license inn

ing handed him by the unsuspecting
clerk, he boldly laid itaway and there

The Kootcnai Valley Railway would
l,ave been completed three months ago
but for The scarcity Of labor and the
delay in filling orders for steel. The
contractors experience trouble in Sc
curing sufficient common labor at s.. 5t

men enough to work half crews. al
though they skirmished for men from
