Appellant was tried under an information charging him with keeping a “blind tiger,” was convicted by the jury and his punishment assessed at two months in the county jail, and afine of $100, and from the judgment of the lower court he prosecutes his appeal. The information in this case charges that the defendant, in a certain local option precinct (describing it), “did then and there unlawfully and wilfully keep and run, and was then and there interested in keeping and running, a ‘blind tiger’ for the purpose of selling intoxicating liquors; that he did then and there sell to John Baugh intoxicating liquors,” etc. The appellant moved to quash this indictment because it did not charge any offense, and because it was duplicitous. We think the allegation that he kept a “blind tiger,” without further description, is sufficient; and further, that the allegation that he sold intoxicating liquors to John Baugh does not make the information duplicitous. The appellant assigns as error that certain persons called as jurors were shown to have formed opinions; some of them in similar cases against appellant, and one of them as to the case then on trial. The bill of exceptions does not show that said j urors sat in the case or that appellant’s challenges were exhausted; and, moreover, it does not show that any of those called as jurors had formed such opinion as to the guilt or innocence of the defendant in the particular case then on trial such as would disqualify them. Nor did the court err in requiring counsel for defendant to return to the witness, Payne, the internal revenue license and the State license for selling intoxicating liquor, which had been brought into court as testimony. The statute itself makes the internal revenue license prima facie proof that the person to whom such license is issued is keeping and running such “blind tiger,” and the fact that thecounsel had gotten possession of the license gave it no immunity from process of the court. The appellant also insists that the court erred

in permitting witnesses to testify that they saw notices of the election posted up in the city of Brownwoocl. The fact that the clerk had posted these notices through one Adams, who was shown to be absent, did not deprive the State of other means of proof that the notices were in fact posted up. We think the proof in this case, even if the onus had been on the State, sufficient to have shown that the notices of the election were posted up for the required length of time; but we have heretofore held (Irish v. State,
