IS ONLY ON DISTRICTS. . . AmmtmmmmiK', Ol IfPH TI HOI I )0$W05Ww5vvvvvvwvvvvvvvvvvv5v v5---' ptHIANbLt in nniinn i aw , Liquor Men Clnliii That Law is One bided ami May Make Fight On It Soon. Moro details received today by Judge Hall regarding Judge Hamil ton's ruling on the petitions of B. A. Becket and other Coqullle liquor men to have the proposed local option election in June set aside, show that tho ruling only affects the certain districts and not the county as whole. Tho question for tho county as a whole will be voted on June 1st, but a temporary injunction has been is sued restraining the submission of the question to certain districts. Tho hearing on this injunction will be sometime during tho present term of court and it Is not unlikely that It will bo made permanent. Judge Hamilton upheld the liquor men's contention that the pro hibition question according to the State law could not be submitted in certain districts moro than once overy two years. Now, it happens that the question was submitted about a year ago in ryjrtaln districts that are 'now., "wet," so unless argu ments and law ar,p presented to make Judge Hamilton change his ruling, tho question cannot bo submitted to these sections as districts again. However, tho law permits these dis tricts, as part of the county, to vote on the question again In June. Under tho law, all precincts in tho county that give a majority for pro hibition shall remain "dry" for two years even If the total voto of the county Is against prohibition. How ever, if tho county as a whole, gives a majority for prohibition and even though the vote In certain precincts is against prohibition, these precincts as part of tho county must remain "dry." The liquor men clnim that the law, owing to tho above peculiarity, is one Bided, and It Is possible that they may attempt to make a test-case against it. The prohibition workers, under tho direction of tho recently formed Coos County Anti-saloon League, are pre paring to make a strenuous campaign for their side.

The hotel will be a four story structure of concrete and steel and will bo erected at an approximate cost of $50,000.

Tho minimum expenso at which a hen may be maintained in comfort for a year a problem which is now the subject of profound consideration in congress is tho bone of contention among poultry Impresarios In all parts of tho country, judging from tho scores of communications being received hero. Each writer Insists that his estlmnte Is correct, but no attempt will bo made to strlko an average until tho evidence is all in. Somo of the most interesting follow: $2.15 Per Hen is Xate Ullven's Care ful Estimate. WEEIvAPAUG, R. I., April If., All matters of interest in this thriv ing metropolis havo been subordinat ed to tho task of trying to decido just how much each hen should be allowed annually. Wholo families havo split on tho proposition and oven tho hens can't come to an agree ment. "1'vo been keeping hens for years," said Nato Bliven, general store keeper, "and I've never been able to llguro out what each hen spends. Some hens eat moro than others, and somo hens eat less. You can't fool them on feed, though. Give them rotten grub and you'll get a similar brand of eggs. Taking room, board and expense Incurred in freeing them from foreign entanglements, nnd I should say that $2.15 would bo a pretty good average." Colorado Can't Solve It. COUKLEG, Col.. April 10. "That question never will bo settled," said Jim unison. "How are you going to figure out an annual allowance and include tho setting hens? It can't bo did. In tho old days a hen was content to squat on a pllo of straw to do hor hatching; now sho , demands a hair mattress or a feather , bed. All these highfalutln' notions I come from eriibslng tho birds with the ! Incubator variety." "Ami you must ruiuombor," inter rupted Toby Tucker, "that nil tho time a hen Is settln' she ain't layin,' and her board and keep Is going on Jiiht tho satuo. Where sho used to Uilft for horsolf, now sho demands a sulphur souso every day and tho serv ices of a trained nurse.
