   It shall be unlawful for any person or persons or corporation to
   maintain or operate a public pool or billiard hall, or any public pool
   or billiard table, in any incorporated city or town, without first
   securing license issued by the district court clerk. The person
   applying for such license must make a showing once each year, and
   satisfy the district court clerk that he or she is a person of good
   moral character; that he or she has never been convicted of violating
   any of the laws regulating the traffic in any spirituous, vinous,
   fermented or malt liquors, or any of the intoxicating beverage or
   low-point beer laws of the state, or convicted of violating any of the
   gambling laws of the state. A fee of Ten Dollars ($10.00) per year
   shall be charged for the issuing of such license. Upon application
   being filed, the district court clerk shall give five (5) days' notice
   by posting notices, one of said notices to be posted at the county
   courthouse, one notice to be served on the district attorney or his or
   her assistant and three (3) notices in the city or town where said
   pool hall shall be located. Said notice shall contain the name of the
   applicant and the location of said pool or billiard hall. Any citizen
   of said city or town may appear before the district court clerk and
   protest the issuance of said license. Any party aggrieved by any
   decision of the court clerk can appeal to the district court as
   specified in Section 163.11 of Title 37 of the Oklahoma Statutes. Any
   person violating any provision of this section shall be punished by
   fine, not less than Twenty-five Dollars ($25.00) nor more than One
   Hundred Dollars ($100.00), for each offense.
