terms a possible solution of the SER

excused for shedding his coat and do

number is increased to eleven straight,
sudden death would be possible, ana
this is what happened, if reports of a
negro are true.
1t was a nickel ante game and
there was plenty of money in the
crowd for payday had been en-
joyed.
On the tenth successive throw there
was on the table the equivalent of
S51.10, and with a wild look of do or
die the negro took the dice in his
trembling hand and rolled 'em once
more. Hardly breathing, he looked
and 1t was the fatal number. His
hand stayed in another move tow
ard the dice, over his face came a
strange expression. his eyes took on
CLASSY look and he fell to the floor

Local people objected to such an ar
rangement. 1t was then reported
that the arrangement contemplated
had been dropped and that Coos Bay
would remain as port of entry and
the custom officer be retained here

part:
"Some of our citizens object to the

II would put the saloon in politics
In my opinion exactly the reverse is
true, as it will be readily conceded by
those who have by experience and OBJ
servation noted the political activity
of the liquor interests on all matters
which they consider would even re-
motely affect their interests.
"Nominally, the public officials
are supposed to regulate the nquor
traffic, but in reality are often regu-
lated by it. Other objections are
that the city would lose money be-
cause of grating politicians ana dis
honest employees. There is no doubt
that some loss would occur through
these agencies, even as IT occurs in
private business, but systematic
check and balance system could be in
stituted and surety bonds required of
all who handle money. The work
ing out of the system is purely mat
ter of detail.
There is nothing in the constitu-
ton or statutes of Idaho that for
bids a city engaging in mercantile
business; yet there is no law speci-
fically authorizing a city so to engage,
so in all probability, should the city
of Coeur d'Alene go ahead with the
proposed municipal saloon. whether
it would be permitted to proceed is
a matter for the courts of the state
to decide"
