SUNDAY CLOSING LAW

the Law Lost Their Licenses.
Governor Folk set about to enforce

who have absolute power 10 revoke

preme Court has decided that the Sun
day-closing law is imperative against
every business except the saloon, and
the saloon men could not compel other
stores and shops to close because the
saloons were shut up. That weapon
was denied them. And when the order
came to close at midnight Saturday,
they closed
The first Sunday a throng of drunken
men and women crowded the ST. Louis
bridge coming and going TO Illinois,
where liquor could be bought. The sec

after the custom in such cases, few
of them opened their back DOORS Their
licenses were promptly revoked by the
excise commissioner. The throng on
the St. Louis bridge was not so large
that Sunday. The third Sunday
which is the sunday when Sunday-clos-
ing spasms generally cease, few
more back doors opened, and Monday
morning the keepers of those places
lost their licenses. There were few
convictions also in court for violation
of the law. The crowd on the bridge
was gone. The people were getting
used to the law. And from that time
on St. Louis, Kansas City and st. Jo-

ROOSEvELT'S GUIDE.
Granted Special License to Conduct a
Hunting Lodge.

Jacob Borah, the veteran guide of
Colorado, who has had charge of more
than one of President Roosyelt's fam
GUS hunting expeditions in the state,
has been granted by the government a
special personal license TO continue
conducting a hunting lodge at Deep
Lake, on the White River forest reser-
vation. This is the notice received by
Deputy United States District Attorney
Knaebel from the secretary of the De-
partment of Agriculture. AS a result
the proceeding brought by Mr. Knaebel
asking that the regular license which
was secured by Borah to conduct the
lodge in the first place be Cancelled
were dismissed.
1t seems that Borah once sold the
place to other parties, who turned it
into a questionable resort. He after
ward bought 1t back. but the forest
rangers feared he might sell it again
to irresponsible persons and made the
application for canceling the license.
In the letter of the secretary of agri
culture IL is stated that the guide has
given sufficient personal assurances
that he will never again let it go into
other hands and would take charge Of
it in person.
The lodge has been for several years
the rendezvous of lovers of hunting
and 1t was through the efforts of some
of these that the government granted
Borah the privilege which he has OBJ
tanned.
