Slot Machines Again in Operation After Judge Bell Ruling
Local cigar and saloon dealers resume slot machine use at five cents per play following Judge Bell of Seattle ruling that play for merchandise is a misdemeanor, with concerns about location turning into gambling under broader laws. Yakima County commissioners adjourn after routine business, purchasing bridge tools, auditing 183 bills totaling 34000, and setting deputy salaries across offices. Delinquent taxes must be cleared by October 1, 1903 to avoid penalties.
