belief that the idea was to have t:,e
state and that tac presentation U
the matter before the District Court
was merely q matter of form and for
the purpose of appealing from the

which way the ase was decided.
Boyd then stated that the case
had been brought before the court for
the purpose Of asccrtninins whether
the Jaw was good or bad previous to !
It's enforcement. Te attorney stated
that few, IL any of tac county ofil. |
cials Of the state had been able to un |
derstand the law and the require.
ments OF the same. That they had
asked for information from various

wide diversity Of opinion in these de-
cisions as to whether the law was
constitutional or unconstitutional. |
He added that candidates for offices
this fall would have to stand the ex.
pcnse of primary and q general cleo !

injury to taem II, after the election,
the law should he tested and dec,ard

piled that they could present them /
they saw fit but under the condi
tions and with Il lack of authoritie.
at his command he could do notlins
| but declare the law constitutional

from the bench:
These proceedings have been in

Act until ii is declared unconstitu-
iional. and no good. sufficient or co
cent reason why should overruie
the demurrer having been presented
to me, the demurrer interposed by the
Attornoy-General on behalf of Mr.. |
Douglass is sustained. Thereby sus. ,
tanning in the judgment of this court

II is understood that taa case will

GREAT GUNS"
A New Member of the Stevens
Line Which is Sure of Wide
Popularity.

Probably all of our readers are
familiar with the high reputation
of TIE j. Stevens Arms & Tool Co.
and the line of guns and rifles
which has made the name of Ste
vcns'' famous. 1t is possible,
however, that comparatively few
realize the great strides towards
perfection which are constantly
being made.
Mr.. John Brewing, an inverto
of international prominence, has
designed what is now on the mar
kct as the Stevens HammerIess
R peating Shotgun, No. 500. 1t is
So modern in it's lines and so su-
prrjor in its special features that
great popularity is assured for
it.
This new gun is equally we'll
adapted to trap or field work and
is still further appreciated because
of lis very moderate cost.
The barrel is of Stevens com.
pressed forged steel, and is as
strong as it is possible to make
a shotgun barrel. it is IL guage
and chambered to take a q inch
shell. The finish is in black oxide
which gives a beautiful and last.
ing appearance.
One of the most valuable fea-
lures of this gun is that none of
the interior parts protrude or in
terfere with the free and safe
handling of it, while it's simplicity
makes it possible to take it down
or put 1T together more quickly
than any repeating gun on the
market.
The side handle, locking block,
firing pin and safety device have
each been the object of special
study,with the result that for gen.
eral use the Stevens Repeating
Shotgun, mo. $40 stands, as the
latest and best contribution to the
needs of the gunner. 4.
Thousands of these unique
pieces are already in use and are
receiving the highest praise for
certainty and ease of operation as
we'll as for the extreme of conven-
lence and satisfaction generally.
Any of our readers who may be
thinking gum may be helped
to wise choice by the particulars
regarding the new $50 model or
any of the standard pieces made
by this we'll known firm by send
ing six cents in stamps to the ].
