1t is a favorite argument with the
liquor interests that wiping out the
licensed saloon results in a large in
crease in the number Of Illicit places
selling liquor. The direct contrary is
true. The licensed saloon inevitably
breeds bling pigs. Interesting Stats
tics are frequently given by the liquor
press and recently il was stated in the
Wine and Spirit Review that in llli-
nois there were 12,70S licensed saloons

Last Sunday the First Christian
Sunday School Of this city received
s4s points, and the Centerville school

school to overcome the lead Of the
Centervflle school during the short

-Technicalities do not go with the
Iowa supreme court. One Phh Schell
sought to escape punishment on a
conviction in Marion county on the
theory that there was no such crime
difined In the code as "assualt with
intent to commit larceny from the
person" and anyway 1t Is not an in
cluded and lesser crime in that OF
assault with intent to commit rob
berry. But the court held against him
on both things. The court held that
| 1t is included. An intent to rob is
an intent to commit larceny from the
person by force and dolence. Rob-
berry includes violence of putting In
fear. There may be larceny from the
person without such fear or violence,
| or there may be an assault with in
tent to commit such larceny without
violence or putting in fear. And be-
sides. while the crime Is not speci-
fically mentioned, It Is covered by
some general sections of the code.
Probably Their has been no other
instance Of conviction .or just that
particular crime.
