Mayor lloctor for Cloainn.
If the cases of the two saloonmen
caught last Sunday night selling after
hours comes before Mayor lloctor. chair
man of the fire and police board, he
says they will find him not one lightly
to be offended. Hoctor declares he wants
e accused men punished if they are
tound guilty. It seems that not long
since his honor was approached by a
number of men who asked him about
running a few minutes after time. The
mayor refused to entertain the sugges
tion and said what he would do in case
he caught the petitioners or anyone else
violating the closing law.
The petitioners, It Is asserted, however,
who have not been in the habit of being
refused anything within the gift of the
bosses, left In high dudgeon. The mayor
said, a day or two ago; "They'll keep
the law while I am on the board or
they'll get out of business. Watch my
vote."

These deposits, the records show, wera
