Gage Puts Lid On
in Coos.
The Harbor is able to report
through tbe office uf W. W. Gage,
sheriff, that gambling no loqger ex-
iste in Coos county,
Sheriff (iage is positive ou this
point aud he ought tu know. Tbe
Harbor has not conducted an in vest i
galiou and therefore has no report of
its own to make.
Mr. Gage was elected ou a reform
platform that promised to do away
with all wickedness in the territory
over which be is to reign for two
years. He even promised if elected
tu close all gin mills. But un
fortunately in tbe great desire to elect
Gage bis supporters overlooked tbe
msm gate and let the saloou bull get
into the pasture where be is uow hav
ing bis own way.
When Mr. Gage took office be be
gan a study of tbe statute to see bow
many occupations in tbe county could
be classed as criminal. He discovered
that burdy gurdy bouses were uot ex
actly outlawed and could not be sup
pressed by force, but be made tbe
further discovery that they were sub
ject to a license fee of $100 a mouth.
The sheriff placed himself uuder
tbe tutorship of District Attorney
Brown and when tbe legal way is
made clear be is going to swoop down
and gather in those hundred plunks
each month from tbe only institute
of tbe kind in bis bailiwick.
The sheriff took milder means to
suppYess gambling. He sent word
over to tbe boys that be was coming
and that that they had better vamoose.
Before tbe gamblers skiduoed they
hung out 23 aud that was all the
sheriff saw when be arrived around
tbe green cloth where the gaiety
youths had once made merry with
tbe clink of glasses and tbe rattle of
chips.
Tbe sheriff did oot place much
faith in the staying qualities of tbe
dealers, in their Btaying away qual
ities, and so be placed an outlook to
make tbe nightly rounds. It is re
ported that this man keeps a close
watch on tbe gambling rooms and
that these places are now as quiet as
