DON'T WANT A SALOON.


 Tenth Ward Residents Preparing to Fight Thomas HI. Mallory's Appli- cation for a License to open a Saloon at Whalley Avenue and Garden Street.
 The residents of the Tenth ward, and especially that portion of it bounded by Whalley avenue, Elm street, Sperry street and Orchard street, are up in arms against the granting of license to sell liquor at the corner of Whslley avenue and Garden street. Already remonstranee has been circulated and 1t has been numerously signed by residents of this section, each and every one of whom, it Ia said, will, if occasion requires, appear personally before the county commissioners and protest against the granting of the license. It is proposed to open the saloon at the corner of Garden street and Whalley avenue in 9 store owned by Edward Malley.
 The applicant for the license Is Thomas B. Mallory who is said to reside at pres ent on Wallace street, but who desires to change his residence and locate in the Tenth ward and open 8 saloon. Already Mallory had published the notice of his application for a license, and it is alleged thinking that the residents of the Tenth ward would not be so likely to see the ad- vertisement of his application, If publish ed in German paper, caused the insertion to be made in the Connecticut Volksblatt, which is published in this city, thus com- plying with the law which requires that all applicants for licenses shall cause the | notice of said application to be made in some paper having @ circulation in the city or town in which the application if | made.
 Accidentally the paper happened to fall 1 into the hands of one of the property own 1 CTS in the section of the city where it is proposed to locate the saloon. Immediate | ly the report spread abroad, and at once l vigorous measures were put on foot tt | thwsrt the plans of the would-be saloor keeper. As already stated, a remonstranc, l against the granting of the license has beer circulated and signed by about fifty of tn property owners of that section of the city and each day the list is being augmented Not content with this, the residents ant property owners have engaged the service of Attorney 0. 0. Ford, who will sppea l bsfore the commissioners, backed up b. nearly all the residents of the section sf feeted, and strennously oppose the grant ing of the license.
