for the defense and Attorney Meier, of
Spokane, for The state.
Tuesday evening Washington avenue
was lined with people awaiting the an
nouncement of the result. When the
news came that the drys had won, while
it was received with pleasure by those
who had worked hard for tlGs result.
there was no demonstration or dispo-
sition to show undue elation at the dis
comtiture of the saloon forces.
While there is a wide difference of
opinion among our people as to the wis
dom Of voting the town dry, and it could
not be expected that the saloon interest
would feel good over the result of the
election, there is general disposition TO
accept with the'right spirit the will of
the majority. Also to give the new con-
ditions fair trial, and to that end insist
on strict enforcement of all the exac-
tions of the local option law. Ii New
port is not to have a regulated and
licensed sale of liquor. let us see to it
that we do not have illegal traffic. If
the law does not work out fairly and
satisfactorily to the majority there will
be an opportunity to again express
choice in the matter at the next general
election. In the meantime strict en-
forcement of the law will be necessary
to give it fair trial.
The petition for the election in the
county unit is being filed at the county
seat today and the election will be held
on Nov. 9. The petition will have safe
margin of signers. and it is safe to pre-
dict that if the saloon is voted out in
municipalities, where it can be regu
lated and closely watched, the voters
will see to it that 1t cannot run in the
smaller towns where there is no munich
pal regulation.
OF the other towns in the section that
voted on Tuesday, Chewelah is the only
one to 60 wet, with 121 votes for license
and 55 against. Colville went dry by
majority of "a, the vote being l54 to l2O.
Kettle Falls and Deer Park went dry by
good majorities.
A petition for an election is at present
being circulated in Bonner county, but
the date for the election is not yet set.
Of all the Idaho counties that have so
far voted only one has gone wet, Ada
county decreeing on Tuesday last. Those
who claim to know say that Bonner will
easily 60 dry, but at that there will be
saloons in Old Town for the better part
Of year, as the saloons are not put out
of business in Idaho until their licenses
expire.
Chewelah is the second town in the
state of Washington to go wet, Accord
ing to present indications the larger part
of the state will be dry within year,
except the big cities, and it may be pre-
sumed that the newt move will be
statewide prohibition.
The saloons of Newport, Wash, will
be: closed on Dec. 6, according to the
law, extracts from which relative to en-
forcement, are printed in this issue of

lege, Chestertown, Nd, has not been

Furthermore It would appear as
though the chances OF the eminent foot

When it was necessary to give TIN
Hurst his release, Ban Johnson found
himself in the position Of not having a
suitable successor. so he appealed TO
baseball men here for names OF men
who seemed 10 possess qualifications for
position. Thompson was suggested
and he met Johnson. but further than
talking over the proposition in a general
way nothing was done.
Although the financial inducements
Johnson could afford TO offer for a COM
petant man at this time would be par
ttcularly attractive. reports from Ches-

prefers the quiet life on the Eastern
