So far toothing has been done : in this
city toward enforcing the law regarding
the ' abolishment of nickel-in-tbe-slot
machines and similiar divises, and the
officers as well as owners of such ma
chines seem to be waiting the decision
in regard to the constitutionality of the
act. Such a test was to have been made
in Astoria yesterday. An attorney bad
been engaged by the nickel-in-1 he-slot
men at that place and another at Salem,
the first arrest to be made at Astoria.
A victim had been selected with the
understanding that all costs of litigation
were to be borne by the men interested
in the protection of the machines, and
either the sheriff of Clatsop county or
chief of police of Astoria be induced to
make the arrest. A . pro forma eorr
fession of judgment was to be entered
in the state circuit court and the case at
once taken up on appeal. A gentleman
here said today : "If tbey would
let the machine rest, it would soon wear
itself out, like any other fad." That
when he first had his machine he took
in from $12 to $15 some days, whereas
now it only helps him to sell his cigars,
and many days but fifty cents is put in.
Quite a revenue is paid into the city
from, licenses on these machines, which,
in case of the enforcement of the law,
must be refunded. It certainly is
naught else but one form of gambling,
and should be dealt with aB such.
