THIRTIETH YEAR
Continued Until Tonight
The city council held sessions
Friday and Saturday ovenings to
hear the remonstrances filed
against the issuance of liquor li
censes1 in this city The hearing
so -far has covered the cases of
five of the applicants This even
ing the council will acrain meet in
adjourned session to complete the
hearing and will then no doubt
render a decision in the matter
As the voters at the last city dee
tion decided in no uncertain tone
that they favored the issuance of
saloon licenses and as the hear
ing has not disclosed anything
more detrimental has not
brought to light conditions dif
ferent than those usually exist
ing in cities and towns where sa
loons operate it is not difficult
or dangerous to prophesy that
applications will be granted As
to the motif and personnel of
the remonstrators it is only char
itahle to use the amplest folds of
a broad mantle of charily and let
the matter go at that
