Bpeaajn g r tha mnttnr todav. one member said , that he had perhaps never given the question as mucu serious thought as it desprved. but that in tha future no man would get a license unless he had proved himself the proper person to conduct a saloon. ' ' He said that a man who would sell jlquor to a drunken man was unfit to tiave a license, and if he had his way rone would be granted to such a saloon keeper. Further, toe councilman de clared himself in ' favor of revoking very license where the owner is known to cater to undesirable persons, -t Dr. W. I. Cottel, chairman af ' tha liquor license committee, spoke yester day: defining tha powers of the cora- tnlttee: ...j ' " . , Xa Va CrldeBC. j This tommlttea baa unusual pow ers," he declared, "and I am in favor of revoking every license when It can be ahown that the owner - is unfit to conduct a saloon. That there are such riacea in the city has been reported by Captain Bruin, and for one I will see that every power of the committee will be used to revoke the licenses if it can be shown that the charges against them are correct .-v-v...- -i r "When the licenses came up for con sideration soma time ago the commit tee had no other course to pursue than to grant the licenses. There were no complaints against any of tha saloons, unit w had no means of findina out about them'Sinleas we made a 'tour of Inspection ourselves.- Inasmuch as there are 438 saloons in the City, this task would hava been too great for us to accomplish, and we naturally granted the licenses because there was no evi dence -to show that the places were un-denerving.-'." ? - - "If the charges brought by Captain Bruin are substantiated. I will vote for the revocation oi every license against which charges ara cus jtined.", Interest lit Coming Hearing. , Other cour.cllmen have spoken quite as emphatically as Dr. Cottel,. and Just liow the liquor interests are going n TOWN TOHCS Taxpayers may greatly promote their own convenience and the convenience of tha collection department of the sher iff's office within the next three weuks by sending to Chief Deputy S. B. Mar tin of that department a description of their land and requeue for statement of taxes due. A force of clerks from County Clerk Fields' Office is at work extending the tax roll, and will finish with It about February 1. Those wn reauest statements. fumlihing the necessary data, will receive their state ments aa soon as me dookb are avail able and all they then need to do Is to remit the monuy for payment Other wiaa enrh taxnaver munt take his chance In the congested line that will form for weeks after the payment of taxes begins. Solomon Ilornsteln. arrested several days ago as a kleptomaniac, has fully sustained his reputation since he has been an Inmate of the county Jail. Even within the narrow limits of his cell ha has found it possible to steal, reaching through the bars to take any movable articles that his fellow prisoners hava In adjoining cells. A handkerchief, a portion of a deck of cards, anything, will do for Hornsteln to steal. He has earned the cordial enmity and contempt of the other prisoners, even of those wining to pieaa guiuy to cnarges oi larceny themselves. v ' Tha National Cash Register company would Ilka to hava Its eigne and tha man who took them from tha company's place of business, at to Third street To this end a formal request has been made of the police to find the man who came to the company's store and took away tha signs lor tna ostenaioie pur pose of re-enameling them. 8everal weeks hava elapsed aince this occurred and the roost diligent search has since failed to disclose tha whereabouts of the signs or the man who took them. Tha United Railways company, Of which W. L. Benham Is president and 3. M. Healey, II. Wittenberg, W. D.

The company proposes to operate under a 6-cent fare and also Dromlses to haul free gravel for mae- adamlxing the Whltehouse road for its run length in mis county. Mrs. X J.
