The licensing of saloons in the ! !
city of Estacada has long been an
annoying problem to the Council, ig
who at all times since their election
have been willing to sacrifice their
personal opinion in the matter and
serve the majority, if that could he
ascertained. It must be remem­
bered that the electors who put the
present councilmcn in to serve tlu m
weie made up from those who
entertained antagonistic views on
this question. The Council had
hoped that the people in their own
manner would show which hail the
majority opinion. Up to the present
time no such means had been taken
As it had become very unpleasant
to be trying the best they knew !
how to serve the people aud in do­
ing this they were constantly an­
noyed by the criticisms of the one
or the other sides to the con­
troversy.
At a council meeting held Tues­
day the 2 ist this was thoroug
gone over and it was the unan
¡metis opinion of the Council to ask
the citizens to meet on Monday j
evening and take a straw vote on (
the licensing of saloons, as it was j
believed this was the only correct
way to know vvhirt the popular
opinion was and it was decided that
a majority opinion expressed in
that manner
be respected.
The straw vote was accordingly
taken on Monday evening, which
resulted in 38 votes being cast in
favor of granting a license and 37
against it.
