Guaranteed to run the institution on his
own system, if the legislature would ap-
propriate a euni equal to $70,000 a year,
If any' of the appropriations remained

the saloon keepers kick.
Des Moines, May 3. The saloons
in this city are still closed, with no I
present prospect of opening. The
keepers have asked the council to grant,
them tLe privilege of selling whisky, in
which case they will take out license-
This would be in violation of 'the state
law. and was not considered by the I
council. Thsaloous have entered into I
a comi act not to take out licenses, hop-
ing to frighten the. council by the los3
of revenue, but the mayor and council
are firm, and the probabilities are that a
limited number of saloons will pay the
thousand dollar license and: open up.
