Al right then— It Quincy Brooks were mayor of the city of Bemidji there wouldn’t be & lot of wide open gambling joints Tninning. There ‘wouldn’t be. & lot of booze 'ironght into Bemidji and sold 0] notoriously and flagrantly. f Penl!%l’:m wonld.lybe no winking at plaoel like. that of the notorious Stock- holm gainbling and booze joint. Thereé ‘would be no camouflage to cover the; long standing gambling in i the place designated as “Big Harry 's.” iThere: would -be no arrests of the ‘fltool pigeon” in gambling joints and s few dollars'fine, while the owner of the place wn not molemd and| [542 allowed to pursue his nefarious business. ! There would be no gambling. and booze joints nllowed to run wide open withomen under indictment to the federal grand:jury in' charge. There would be no four flushing lm)h as there has been in allowing gambling and' booze selling. It is city talk the way booze and gambling flourish and one doesn’t have to possess a search warrant to discover 8 !ame or a bottle of booze and he has had the privilege of being ab}e to.walk into wide open gamb- ling hiouses and get booze, at any time of} the day or night. ‘It took two deputies from the sherilf’s office about 10 minutes tc walk boldly into a long running gambling joint and arrest the proprietor and ten men caught red handed at ganmbling tables, It was the first time the owner of the placehad been mplested, and he was sent to jail. The place had run wide open for ‘years afid when arrests were made there the prlwner was always some ‘“‘stool pigepn’" or cheap’' employe, while not the slightest attempt was made to close ,up the place 1n the interests of law and order in the city. The notorious Stockholm was likewl allowed to run openly. A few days beloge a f\eq‘sr&l officer ‘seized, whlskpy in the place and arrested one of the men running the place, a man wpas fined $100 and another $25, both., Snz arrested At the place; one !orl'sellmg liquor and the other for gambling. i ,4 Was the place closed to preserve thedaws? It ;was not, but continued to run e open and the federal officer had no difficulty in again finding a man' th_é act of pouring booze from one receptacle into another. % & These are mere instances of what l"*belng defended at the hands of the mouthpiece.
