A Correction. Last week It was
stated by the Courier that Councilmen
Moffutt, Jaegar, Broughton, Stevens,
Porter and Cooke signed the petition to
refuse license to saloons that allowed
gambling. Councilmen Cooke,Meldrum
and Howell did not sign. The reasons
of the latter were published last week
and Cooke's reason is "that it is the
duty of the chief of police to 'look after
violations of tho city charter and ordin
ances and that he should arrest all law
breakers and not the council."

to the Salem Statesma n,sayB that''iii the
