Deputy District Attorney Gus C Mo
ser also oeueves mat tne Question in
volved In the Sunday closing cases i
the same as that raised by Hedtres.
Deputy District Attorney Adams took
this view of the matter and believed
that aambllnar , in Milwaukle has not
been authorised by the legislature.
senator Heages, attorney ror tne Mil
waukle club, contends that the club haa
a legal right to exist at Milwaukle and
to continue selling pools and playing
poacr, ana By 111m 1 11 one wno are
clamoring for obedience to the law are
merely urging that the Milwaukle club
be permitted to continue. senator
Hedges issued a statement in spport of
nis contention in winch he says in part
as ronows:
"The legislature of this state has
power to license pool selling, poker play
ing, or even maintenance or tne so-
called "social evil." Only the first two
01 tnese it is assorted are earned on
at the club.
"The legislature further has the right
to delegate to a municipality the power
within its boundaries to matte lawful.
so far as the public Is concerned, a work
or business or an act or state of affairs
generally which without such authorlz
atlon would constitute a nubile nuis
ance, and the person for whose benefit
the authorization is made will be ex
empt from liability to suits, civil and
criminal, at the instance of the state.
firovided, always, he keeps strictly wlth
n the terms of the legislative license
or permission
"If. therefore, by the act creatine the
municipality or in tne cnarter tne now-
er Is granted to license pool-selling and
poker playing and, under ordinance duly
and regumriy passed and approved, a
license is granted to a person to prose
cute this line of business or conduct
such vocation, the licensee Is immune
from punishment for pursuing the cal
line or business.
"The state cannot prosecute as a
nuisance that which It has authorized.
The term 'public nuisance' applies only
to something occasioned by acts done In
violation of law. A work which Is au
thorized by law cannot be a nuisance.
"Now the legislature of this state In
the year 1903, Incorporated the city of
Milwaukle and In the charter granted to
the city council the power to 'prevent,
remove and -abate nuisances by general
ordinances,' and to 'suppress bawdy
hotlses, houses of ill fame, gambling
houses and gaming.'
"In its wisdom In 190S the legislature
changed these powers and gave to the
city council power within Milwaukle to
license, tax and rtgxtlate and restrain
and to license the different branches of
business or professions which in theff
Judgment should be licensed.
"It will be noted that the special act
creating Milwaukle and granting the
powers above enumerated to the council
was. pawed long after section 1930, B.
& C. code, so often referred to In the
press during the past few days.
"In strictness, therefore. If those who
are so persistent in having the officers
or mis county compel eoecuence 10 mo
law but knew it, they s re urging that
the Milwaukle County club be permitted
to continue Its business unmolested."

The Dalles, Or.. Aug. 8. After care
fully examining the evidence offered
at the coroner's Inquest on the body of
E. Benomi. who was murdered at his
home on Mill creek Tuesday morning,
the district attorney today Issued a war
rant, for the arrest of Ed. Oosson.as
the party responsible for the killing;- It
is not Known where Uosson is. but of
ficers are on his track and he will be I
under arrest in a few Hours.
W. J. Ralght has Invented a street
ear fender which he claims will Ml the
requirements of that life-saving device.
Mr. Height's fender la en entlroly new
departure In the line of streetcar fend'
ers. Heretofore, the idea has been to
attach some scoop-Uke device to pick
up end carry' any obstruction which
may be on the track.
"As long aa the fenders are screens
or scoops, a victim nas little or no
Halght In dlscussln his fender. "He Is
pound to orag. Let his arm get beneath
me lenaer ana tne rest or mm win roi
low. and he will be terribly mansied.
ine main ining is to get mm orr tne
track and out of harm's way without
. . . .
Mr. xiaignra rentier is a very simple
device. It Is comDOsed of two sheet
steel wheels with one axis. The larger
wiieel extends horizontally over the
rails of the track. This upper wheel is
to 11a in pusning uie victim out or tne
Fain 01 ins car, as tno wneei turns
reelT anv obstruction Is oushed to the
side of the track nearest the edge of
the wheel. There Is no chanoe for any
one's being dragged If he should be
thrown upon 'the wheeL there is en
emple screen to protect htm. Four men
can stand on the wheel at One.
The appliance has been attached to
foru&no Heignis oar iz ror tne past
two weeks. ' - Experiments performed
with boxes and barrels have proved the
fender to be effective. The management
of the Portland Railway, Light A Power
company is willing to adopt Mr.
Height's fender If the oubllo thinks well
or nis invention.
