have been offered several of the
saloon properties now running,
for a low price, thus keeping
down the number of saloon, and
yet have their wish. At the same
time, there is the avowed no
saloon sentiment straining to
make itself heard in condem
nation, and, strange to
say, rumor
has it, that if the license asked
for is not granted, the persons
applying and their friends will
join hands at the coming city
election, to vote the town dry.
Truly, a strarge companionship.
Thus the petition opens a serious
controversy, which it is hoped
may be settled strictly along the
line of common sense, and free
from visionary motive or senti
