"tiow is the gambling situation in your town?" be was asked. . . "I'ue gambliug .situation," replied Mr. Brown, speaking as though he meant what he said, "is just the same aa t wilt be for the next four yeara. The gambling bouses are ' cloeod, and the saloons are closed and they will re main so for four yeara at least. I will be aheriif for two years mora and Mr. Loniux will be Prosecuting Attorney for four years aud aa long as either oi us is in olllee there will be no open town ln,J3itker juuty.!'
