The RuSSian-Japanese war has

as surprise to the saioon-keepers

had about as little respect for the

people could have. The Democrat,

saloon-keepers there, probably re-
fleets the feeling among the liquor
element of the city in an editorial
in last Mondays issue, hcaping abuse
upon the governor. The better ele-

MUTTON DEAR IN AUSTRALIA.
Likely to Remain In That Condition
for Some Time.

The dearness OF mutton is a cause
of much complaint among the house,
holders of New South Wales, who can
not understand why prices should be
exceptionally high when the season is
the best which flockmasters have ex-
perienced since 1896. An interview
by a representative of the Sydney Mall
with some OF the leading breeders
elected some explanations of the ap-
parent anomaly.
II appears that there is a great de-
mand for fat sheep and lambs of good
quality from Victoria. South Australia.
and South Africa. while frozen meat
for export has also to be supplied. At
a recent sale 70-fb fat Merino wethers
realized 2ls each. and S0-ib cross
bred wethers, Is Cd, and some choice
Herinos recently made GAS Cd head
The breeders expressed the opinion
that mutton would remain dear for
some time, unless drought should oc-
cur to force sales. But. II the spring
lambing season proves as successful
as the autumn lambing has been,
there will be an increase of between
five and six millions In the stock of
wethers, and in that case normal
prices for mutton may be restored by
the winter OF, 1906.

Navigation Resumed.

Steamboat navigation on the Snake
river has been resumed. The Lewis

crowd at the dock to wolc me her.
The run was made here from Riparia

terruption.
While the trip was the first made
since the tie-up Of several weeks ago,
the run yesterday to this point was not
of an excursion or experimental ma
ture. The boat left Riparla Monday
evening at 6 o'clock with large car
go of supplies and equipment for the
railroad camps. The first delivery of
this equipment was made at Pering-
toms, 20 miles above Riparia, and the
boat tied up there for the night At

Sold Liquor Without a license.

SOlu Liquor Without License.
N. e. Larson, the West Main street
Wholesale liquor dealer. was tried IN
police court yesterday afternoon on
the charge Of selling liquor without a
license. The case had been pending
for some time having originated over
Larson's rushing business the first
sunday and the Sunday and midnight
closing ordinance was In effect II was
found that the Sunday closing ordl-
nance applied only to those establish
ments selling liquor by virtue OF n
city license" and did not extend to the
wholesale houses, which had never
paid licenses In the past.
While the authorities were seeking
for some method Of closing up the
place on Sundays, in accordance with
the spirit Of the closing ordinance,
they CHANGED to find an old ordinance,
approved April 2S. 1881. prohibiting
the manufacture or sale in any man
ner OF any spirituous, yinous or malt
liquors without license. Larson was
arrested under this ordinance. but his
hearing was never held until yester-
day. The ordinance specifically ex-
empted druggists from Its operations,
and the attorneys for the defendant,
]. r. Good and j. L. Schooler, based
their fight against the ordinance upon
this exemption. alleging 1t was class
legislation. A large number of auth
critics were cited In support Of this
contention and an equally large num-
Der in rebuttal by City Attorney Kahn.
Magistrate Locke refused to declare
the ordinance unconstitutional. and
fined Larson $50 for his offense
