OF Committee on License-Wm. Rodecker
and others Petition
To tie Honorable, the President and Com
mon Council of the City of St. Paul:
GENTLEMEN: The Committee on License
to whom was referred the petition of Vim.
Rodecker and large number of the cit
liens, asking that the Common Council
take such action as would require all "a
loon keepers, who sell spirituous liquors to
close their places Of business from 10
O'Clock at night until 6 O'Clock in the morn
ing, report adverse to the request Of the
petitioners, for the reason that an ordi-
nance Of the city now requires that all such
houses must be kept closed between the
hours of IL O'Clock at night and 8 O'CLOCK
in the morning, and during Sunday, which
is reasonable, and as your committee be-
lieve, a sufficient restriction, as to the hours
saloons should be KEEP closed. A rigid en-
forcement of that ordinance has done
away in great measure with the evils Of
keeping saloons open during the night
time. As the s'after ~ o'clock" and peep
of day" houses are the ones which annoy
the citizens and gives work to the police.
Respectfully, JOHN DowLAN, Chairman.
Adopted Jan. 2, 1888.
