Argument For License.


The total valuation of the city of Paw
tucket Is 30,000,000 in round numbers.
The property represented on the petition
for no-license vote aggregated one.thir-
tieth OF that valuation. The population
of the city is about 10000; the number OF
names signed to the no.license petition
was 661. OF these but $50 represented
people who pay taxes. The remainder,
331, were the signatures OF non residents
and poll.tax payers, the people who pay 81
per year for the privilege OF exercising the
right of franchise.
One-thirtieth OF the taxable property In
Pawtucket virtually asks that 20. 30ths
should pay for the fun OF no-license, and
less than one-tenth OF the voting popula.
tion desires to dictate to tho over.
whelming majority.
OF course the $50 tax payers will make
up to the city what It may lose from the
license fees, and OF course they will see
that there isn't drop Of liquor sold IN the
city?
When the water ceases to tumble Of
Pawtucket falls, then, and not until then,
Will liquor cease to be sold here. Why
not keep tho traffic under control? Why
drive IL into tho cellars and alleys and re-
vivo the Sunday kitchen bars?

peddler, collided with q buggy belonging
to Charles Shepard and tore Of one OF
the rear wheels. Shepard wanted Nc
Cam to settle at once, and McCann would
not. The officers saw the crowd and the
patrol went down there on the run.
No arrests were made but the exhibition
OF the horses tprinting pleased the
crowd.
Ellington was taken to the station, an
other driver came after the team and the
