Frisk, superintendent of the eoffin nail department if the state. The $112,-313.8- 0icrating expense was $8672.31. that tha provision of the law which prohibit the advertising or display of cigarette be eliminated is made by Prick. Th rqiort also lifers the suggest u that the license reduced. If tin. is done Prick more porn. in would be issued and there would lie a marked decrease in illegal selling and the state would benefit by the increased saie of eigur-ett- e 1.x es revenue stamps. The license fee in cities of the first-clas- s is iiow a hundred dollars a year. It is recommended that it lie redueed to twenty. Reduction of the fee in second-clas- s eities from seventy-fiv- e dollars, as at present, to fifteen, and the lowering of the license fee in third-clas- s cities from fifty dollars, as now in effect, to ten is suggested. In keeping with the same schedule it is urged that the fee for territory not included in the three foregoing classes e ten instead of tweuty-fiv- e dollars. Among the changes which Prisk thinks would improve the operation of the law is one which would allow cities making arrest to retain 50 per rent of the fines and remit 50 to the state. At present the county keeps half of the money and the other half goes to the etate. No fine should be less than fifty dollars in the opinion of the department superintendent. In regard to fines the report reads: In allowing the city or town to retain 50 per rent of the fines collected it would be an incentive for them to with this department in the enforcement of the law. This coolie rat ion we do not now receive, al- though the cities, towns and counties have received in license fees these amounts: Cities of the first-clas- s, 810,400; cities of the second-clas- s, $5475; cities of the third-clas- s, $0650, and towns and other territory, $0050 a total of $38,175.
