The Phosphate Fountains Not Rented MOI
Run on IA Percentage Basis will
lug to Pay License.

Miss Ellen d. Morris, local treasurer
of the Central Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union. was asked yesterday the
views of the union on the fight which is
being made on the cherry phosphate
fountain at the corner OF Fifth and
Main streets, by a number of merchants
on Fourth Walnut and Main streets
and Missouri avenue. These merchants
have petitioned the board of public
works to remove the fountain on the
ground that 1t Is nuisance and detri-
mental to the interests of the petition
ers. Miss Morris said
THE effort to have the fountain re-
moved is unjus. and unfair. II IS
claimed, l believe, that We ought TO pay
a license for all of our fountains. we
would be perfectly willing to do so We're
there an ordinance requiring us 10 pay
one, but there is not Last year, be-
fore We placed our fountains about the
city, Mrs. Ira Lewis and L. as represen-
tatiyes of the union, went 10 Mayor
Davis anl License Inspector Strlcklcr
and asked If IL was necessary TO pro-
cure license We said that we wished
to get one if it was required. Mr.
Strickler told US that there was no
ordinance or provision requiring us 10
pay a license. Mayor Davis told us to
go on, and gave US his hearty lndorse-
nent We have also appeared before
the board of public works relative TO
the same matter and have been told
that We are acting in a perfectly lawful
manner Attorney john Z. Gage told
us that we We're doing a good work and
commended the fountains. When we
sci out the fountains again this spring
we again sought the mayor and Mr.
Stricken and We're told We We're acting
properly. If it should be necessary to
pay a license We are perfectly ready TO
DO so. We have tried all along 10 do
what is fair and right, and stand ready
to do so now. 1t has been charged that
we rent the fountains Of a Chicago firm,
but this is not the case. The fountains
are our own property, for We bought
them out and out our attorney, Mr.
Wilcox. was the WITNESS 10 the sale and
another attorney has all the letters rela-
tive To the purchase in his possession.

purchase, for as treasurer OF this union
