Bngoland Boys Are Seriously Considering an Exodus to

America Is Expected to Live and Flourish.

With booze banished from Bingo-
land, large number Of low moral en-
deavorers, like Othello, find their &C.
equations gone. They are looking about
anxiously for green and more fruitful
fields, but have not yet found what
they seek. There is not room for all

Cuba seems to be strongly in the
minds Of many of the bad actors Of
Bingoland. tChet" Bell has q new
automobile of mammoth size and he is
said to be thinking seriously Of chuck
ing everything in Superior and going
to Cuba in his car.
Cuba is the biggest and best wet
spot left in North America and those
who must live by booze and all the
stunts of low moral endeavor that 60
with it, have a bunch that Cuba is the
one best bet for them.
There is report that Max Rosen-
berg has sold out the notorious cafe

will break his engagements with the
jails, jumping his bonds and taking
asylum in Havana, Cuba. This may
depend somewhat on what success the
surgeons have in Rochester at fixing
up Max' shattered left wing, old dam
age done by Billy Stevens.

THE POINT OF VIEW,

EDO you think you can get me out
of this scrapeg' asked the confidence
man Of his shifty lawyer.
"How much would it be worth to
meg" queried the lawyer.
'ssuppose we say $1,000" was the
reply.
"And you made $4,000 out of the
deal? No, sir. I don't see the slight
est chance to get you acquitted for
$1,000; but, ahem, we might view the
matter from another angle"
"What do you mean9' anxiously
asked the confidence man.
"Looking at your case from a $4,000
angle, I don It see the slightest chance
for you to be convicted. '-Ex.

CHISHOLM, Dec. 23.-(special to
the Rip-saw.)-It is reported that Sol.
Rubloff has retained Victor Power, Of
Hibbing, for the purpose of bringing
suit against Louis Roth for damages in
the sum of $4,000. Rubloff is under
stood to believe that his arrest and
prosecution on the charge Of working
a confidence game on Roth damaged his
name, character and business reputa-
ton to the extent Of at least $4,000.
Louis Roth came to Chisholm as a
common miner. One lucky day he won
heavy sum at poker. That way of
getting money looked easier and more
profitable than toiling in an iron mine,
therefore Roth quit manual labor and
stuck around the gambling games, not
only making a living but piling up a
bank account. One bright day he
bought the saloon where he had bucked
the tiger and gained financial indie
pendence.
All that Louis Roth touched seemed
to turn into silver, gold and long green.
When county prohibition went into ef-
feet, the lucky gambler and booze
vendor was really rich. He then opened
a clothing store and even became a
director in a local bank. After the
ups and downs Of life, Louis Roth at
last was considered ga prominent citi-
zen."
At one time Solomon Rubloff was a
Chish I'm merchant. He went to other
fields and did this and that. At one
time he sold Victrolas on the road.
Coming back to Chisholm on a visit,
Rubloff happened into Roth's clothing
store.~
