Mason DRY.

The recent action or the Mason
City Council in advancing the
town saloon license from $50 to
$500. making the State and town
license aggregate $1.064. had the
effect of putting the two saloons
there out of business. So for the
present the lid will be on at
Mason good and strong. The town
will lose financially, no doubt, quite
a snug little sum by this action,
and Pomeroy, Ohio, just across the
river, will reap the benefits and
Mason will have the trouble end to
look after, because there is GLASS
of people who will have their drinks
At any cost, and when they are
compelled to go to a neighboring
town for their stinulants, there is
where they will purchase their
goods, also. We believe in high
alcoholic license, but in reasonable
license, and every person in Mason
City, and in Mason county, knows
we'll that that The $500 town license
is outrageous and entirely too high

and made to pay over $275O. 1t was
one of the boldest and best planned
coups ever turned in that city.
Goldsmith had received telephone
call from Burke, who stated that he
had a business proposition to make
A meeting was arranged in an up
town office. Burke said he was from
Butte. Mont and owned a half inter
est in the Miner OF that city. He
declared he had $4,000 to invest and
would like to buy an interest in Gold
smiths theatrical business. He show
ed what purported to be draft on the
Butte Miner for that amount. Gold
smith said he would sell him an in
terest in his two vaudeville theatres
in that city for that amount. 1t was
agreed that Goldsmith should have the
papers drawn up by his attorney.
The next day Goldsmith received a
telephone call from Burke from the
Lincoln hotel asking him to come up
and talk over the deal. Goldsmith
and an employee named Cohen went
TO a room on the top floor. They were
met by Burke, who stated that he
wished to talk to Goldsmith personally.
Cohen went to the office and Goiu-
smith remained with Burke. The first
thing the latter did after Cohen left
was to tell Goldsmith to read a letter
lying on a table in the room. This
letter stated that Burke needed $275O
very badly, and if Goldsmith did not
"come through" with that amount his
head would be shot off. Goldsmith
turned to his companion and looked

Goldsmith did as told and called UP
Cashier Lane of the Scandinavian
American bank to say that the check
was all right and to pay the same as
directed. The hotel clerk was called
to the room, Burke keeping Goldsmith
covered and shielding the gun from
the clerks sight. After the clerk had
gone Burke told Goldsmith to order
drinks for two, which he did, and
after the clerk returned with the
money he ordered two more, for which
he made Goldsmith pay.
