k
Illiliee
Club May
Get Arid
Unless the Illihee club can succeed
In getting special legislation through
three readings at the last meeting of
the old city council Monday night, the
organization will, in all probability,
have to do without a bar In Its new
quarters on Liberty street. The floor
space of the new quarters Is too small
to come under the provisions of the
existing ordinance, and It Is reported
that Mayor Lachmund Informed the
officials of the club that If they estab
Hshed a bar he would have thera ar
rested. By special legislation an ordinance
was passed allowing a bar in any club
house occupying 6000 squqare feet or
more of space. This allowed a buffet
only in the Illihee club, there being
no others of sufficiently large dlmen
slons In the city. The new quarters of
the club occupy 4500 feet o. space.
New Council Dry.
The new council, which will be
sworn In at the meeting Monday night:
after the old council has hold a brief
session, Is largely dry, and it is ex
tremely doubtful If the new aldermen
would pass an ordinance permitting a
bar In a club house. There is a bare
possibility that such a measure could
be made to pass the present body.
Again it is said to be doubtful if the
i Illihee club members, as a ninjority,
j would vote for a bar. The club has
taken In many new members In recent
! months, among them many citizens
j who are opposed to saloons and the
liquor traffic. Many have refused
when first approached, to join the club
I because It had a bar. President C. L.
I Dick, In an address before the Hoard
of Trade some time ago, in urging all
substantial citizens of tho city to join
the club mentioned this objection. He
said he had met the objection with
these words:
"Well, if you don't want a bar In
the club, vote It out."
The fact that by no means all of the
members want a bar, together with
the improbability of special legisla
tion Monday night makes the estab
lishment of a buffet in the club doubt
ful. The Caucus
Did Not Agree
on Anything
Notwithstanding that a motion was
passed to keep secret all matters con
sidered by the new and hold-over
members of the city council at the
caucus held last night, it is known
that tho candidates for the police force
and those recommended by the chief
of police were not entirely supported
by the 1913 council, and that several
changes In tho administration of the
city affairs will result when tho body
meets either next Monday night or a
week from then.
Secret Session?
Tho caucus held last night was
strictly secret Insofar as newspaper
men and unofficial taxpayers were
concerned. However, the body failed
to arrive at any dcflnlto conclusion re
garding the rccommenda'.ions made by
the new chlof of police of patrolmen
and the upshot of tho meeting was,
the regular appointment of the now
officers will be made In open meeting
within the next woek. In tho mean
time, Chief Shcdeck will be grantpd
the prlvllcgo of selecting his help tem
porarily, and when tho council meets
next Monday evening there nre good
prospects of dissension as to who
sliali bo the officers to complete ttie
new patrol force.
It Is understood that there nre oth

About tho only office subject to entlro
approval was thnt of City Ilcal'.h offi

said, received tho entire approval of
the now city administration together
with words of prulso by the hold-overs
and It Is more than likely that Dr.
Miles will be supported strongly when
the final conclusions as to the mainte
nance of public officials are arrived at
Trouble Brewing.
There was considerable dissension
resulting when the many applications
for sovoral city offices were Introduc
ed, according to statements mado by
members of the new council, and tho
wishes of most of the officers to servo
for tho city this year wore disregarded
In many ways. Although tho appoint

ter of much strife, other applications
and endorsements brought forth a
storm of prufeHts and showed dlssat
