accordingly. That one has been es-
tablished In this instance that don't
work both ways is beyond the sha-
dow Of doubt. That was, in its dis
cretion, exclusively for the legisla-
ture to determine. or Its expedience
1t is not our function nor have we
the desire to speak. II there has been
q mistake in the passage Of this en-
actment. and II through any misun-
derstanding a law has found its way
upon our statute books, which the
people do not desire there, the reme-
dy is with the general assembly. 1t
may not be applied through the med
ium of the judiciary.
Purpose Of Law ls to
Create @Dry" Territory
"Manifestly the purpose Of the law
was to afford opportunity for and to
facilitate the creation of anti-saloon
territory and at the same time to
render it difficult of destruction when
once established. There could have
been no purpose to give opportunity
to create saloon or license territory,
since, at the very inception Of the
law, the entire state, throughout its
whole length and breadth, was of
that character, except in a few cities
ed by virtue of local laws and ordi-
nances, and which in no wise affect
the object or purpose of the law un
der discussion.
"In other words, the statute pro-
yides in clear and unmistakable
terms as we read 1t, that the several
political subdivisions enumerated in
the statute shall control within their
own territory upon the question of
prohibition and that each shall have
the privilege of saying exclusively
and conclusively that prohibition shall
prevail. but not that 1t shall not. If
precinct vote prohibition it is not
for any other unit to gainsay that If
precinct votes against prohibition.
it leaves such territory just as though
no such vote had been taken, namely,
saloon or license territory. Should the
ward, town or city. which includes
such precinct, thereafter specifically
vote in favor of prohibition, which
by the express terms of the statute,
1t may do, then the whole town, city
or ward becomes dry. In other words
each unit when it votes for prohfbi-
ton, whether It be a large or small
one. controls.
Sauee for Geese Shs1ld
10 Sasce fer GanAef
"The county was enumerated as
shown by the record OF the assembly
In the original bill, as one of the po-
litical subdivisions to be affected by
the local option law, but was stricken
before the act completed its passage.
Had the precinct been intended as the
sovereign or controlling unit. what
necessity existed for the elimination
Of the county subdivision. 1t may be
properly assumed that the legislature
understood and knew that should the
county remain in and vote to become
anti-sa.oon territory, it would be SO
throughout. despite contrary action
in any of the smaller units. No other
inference can be fairly drawn. II
this be correct, then is not the like
equally true of the ward, town or
city. We answer clearly So"

From The Colorado Springs Gazeetes
The decision OF the supreme court

This decision Is manifestly within
the spirit and meaning OF the local
option Law, and a contrary ruling
would have completely nullified the

cinct where liquor selling was per
mitted would be as "wet"-and prob
ably more so-than II there were no
restrictions whatever on the saloon
traffic. Another phase OF the ruling
takes the position that II ward or
precinct votes itself "dry" in a city
that votes to remain saloon territory.

is the governing unit Thus precinct

Had Its Origin in the Judicial Combat and Found Favor with
 All Nations.

Dueling in the proper sense Of the word was handed down from the early Germans. Danes and Franks, all of whom carried the practice of the judicial combat to such an extreme that only women, sick persons. crip- ples and men more than 60 years old were exempt from it. The judicial combat was especially authorized by Gundebaid. king of the Burgundiaas. as early at 50l A. D.
 Finally the practice of dueling waa carried into France, where 1t soon be. came so common that 1t is estimated that 5000 persons fell in mortal com. bat in the ten years of the reign o1 Henry ".
 Single combats are said to have been introduced in England by the Normans. During the period oi chivalry in that country they were in common practice, but in the strict in depreciation of the word they could not be called dueis In the literal sense of the word. the duel was intro duced in England about the time that the practice became prevalent in France
 Dueiing began in this country h the early days of its settlement. h fact. the code of honor was brought to the new world by the first settlers The first encounter of this kind tool place at Plymouth. Mass. in 1921, two of the settlers deciding a question ol honor with the heavy swords that were carried in those days.

Birth of MIaie

By the old Romans the god Mer- eury was credited with the invention Of music. According to Apallooorus, the belief was as follows: The Nile, after an overflow. left on the shore a dead tortoise. It's flesh was finally dried up by the hot sun, so that noth- ing remained in the shell but the cartridges. which, being braced and contracted by the heat, became so- norous. Mercury. happening to be walking that way, and striking his foot against the shell, was so pleased with the sound produced that the idea of Tyre presented itself to his imag. nation He immediately constructed the instrument in the form of a tor. toise. and strung 1t with the sinews oi dead animals.
