tory la Involved la tbe eult of Taylor Flick.
rhlch baa been appealed to the aupreme
eourt from Custer county. Mr. nick owns
a ruildlns In territory of Broken Bow.
within which the operation of aaloons and
billiard halls has been prohibited by city
ordinance. He wishes to rent s portion of
bis property for the forbidden business and
sks the supreme court to give him the de
tlred relief. - - .
In the district court f Custer county a
decision was siren In faror of the city and
Mr. Flick immediately appealed, acting as
his own attorney. The city of Broken Bow,
through Its attorney. A. R. Humphrey, te
flay Bled aa argument In the supreme court
In support of tb ordinance. It Is asserted
that the right of a dry to regulate. locate.
and fix boundaries m which certain boat
besses. amusement and trades may be ear
rled on within the corporate limits has
been sustained by the supreme court In the
case of OustSTO R. Wolfe.
The court is given to understand that In
thla case It was held that ordinances re
lating to the health, comfort, convenience,
good order and "general welfare of the In
habitants of a municipality are authorised
nnder the police power of a city. Further,
It Is said: "And that cltUens holding
property In the city holds It subject to po
lice regulation; that It shall be so used not
to prove pernicious to his Immediate neigh
bors or to eltisens generally.
"The police power of a state deals par
ticularly with the tights of a state or city.
to so regulate its system of government as
to conserve and preaerve public order and
to establish for the Intercourse of ci'tliens
a rule of good manners and prevent a con
flict of rights. To permit any of the classes
f business mentioned In the law, namely.
billiard tables, bowling alleys, houses of
prostitution, etc., to attach themselves to
or alongside of business houses, churches
nr whsrever the owner thereof may wish to
rent or own a building and open their doors
for business, la demoralising to public
morals and detrimental to good cltlsenshlp.
The statute makes . no distinction In the
businesses named la ths section. The lew,
' the regulation that controls the bouse of
prostitution, must govern and control the
billiard table.
"We submit that the power to so regu
late the location of the Millard hall Is con
ferred on cities by statute and the ordi
nance passed- by the defendant city, being
within the power conferred. Is a legal ordi
nance and the Instructions of the tiisl
court to And tor the defendant should be
sustained." ( i .

Great waa their surprise to find twenty-
seven flowing oil springs, each Iron, one
and a half to four inchea in diameter,
together with a large lake of pure oil, the
borders of which were lined with the tar

Colds are considered one of the necessary
His of life. One Is liable to catch cold
both summer and winter. Very often a
cold Is the starting point or cause of a
lengthy and dangerous catarrhal dlsesee.
Colds are always dsngerous and should
never be neglected a day.
A cold Is the beginning of catarrh. It
may cause catarrh of any of 'the Internal
organs the head, throat, lunga and stom
ach especially. A remedy that will cure a
cold, then, would cure all these direct ef
fects of colds. Peruna Is such a remedy.
