Every saloon in Des Moines. Iowa.
was closed last week.
The failure of Miss Bessie Cohen.
a stenographer. to ascertain definitely
whether her notarial commission had
been renewed, was the direct cause
of the saloons being closed under a
supreme court decision.
The court declared that Miss
Cohen, who took the affidavits of
nearly 1000 signers of the saloon
consent petition In 1910 was without
authority to act as notary. IL ap-
peared that Miss Cohen had applied
for a renewal OF her commission but
had neglected to file the endorse
ment of a public official as required
by law. About the time she was
taking a~fidavits. her application was
returned by the governor, but think
ing II was her commission she did
not take the trouble to open the en-
velope.
Nearly 1000 names were thus
eliminated from the consent petit
ton. which the court decided must
be based on the last city election in
stead of the general election. caused
