Or., June It. By an ordl nance ' introduced in the city council Wednesday and which passed Its first reading, : the license for the sals of liquor in Newport Is fixed at $1,000, The 'council was divided as to whether or not a high license should ba imposed. but when a vote was taken fou mem' bers favored a thousand dollar license against three who were in 'favor. of a license. fee of not to exceed $600. The ordinance win unoouotediy De enacted with the higher figure included, as the four members of the council who favor it declare that they will not consent to a, lower figure. ..- ... . -. Ever since June 1, when the county went -wet, saloon men from counties that -went dry have been flocking into Newport looking for locations. It was the apparent danger of having the town filled up with low-class saloons which actuated the council in fixing the license at a figure which will not only increase the city's revenue but will lim it the number of saloons. . - '" The council insists that the stats law regarding: Sunday closing; must be strictly compiled with: that saloons shall close at one o'clock at night, and that there shall bs no gambling or riot ous conduct. The license fee is made a bond, forfeitable, together with the license, for the slightest infringement of the law. ; The Oregon Brewers', association Is backing the council up in this. In a letter read at the council meeting the association says this is the only coun ty In the Untied States that ever went wet after having once ' gone dry, and they realize that this is their chance to demonstrate that the saloon business can be run decently, which is their only chance of stemming the tide of prohibition which promises , to sweep over the entire state.
