COMMISSIONERS ARRESTED.
Board of Cook County in Trouble for
Issuing a Liquor License.

CHICAGO, Oct. 4.-The entire Board of
Commissioners of Cook county was arrested
to-day on warrants taken out by Christian
Citizenship League of North Harvey a
small town adjoining Chicago. The offense
for which the County Commissioners We're
arrested was the issuance of a liquor IL
cense to Hans Peetz, of the town of Bre-
men, whose saloon lies within the two-mile
limit of the village Of North Harvey. 1t is
claimed the act OF the board was a viola
ton of the local option law which gives in
corporated cities and villages the right to
prescribe prohibition districts. The license
was granted, it was claimed, in spite of the
protests from the citizens of North Harvey.
The commissioners say that the matter was
carefully considered and they believe they
had a right to issue the license. All of the
commissioners were Immediately released
on bonds within q few minutes after the
warrants had been served.

Connecticut Elections.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct. 4-Connecti-
cuts little town" elections were held to-
day and while in some sections of the State
there were surprising turnovers, the results
show that the change from the vote of a
year ago is not great Up to midnight, with
all but few isolated towns heard from,
the indications are that the Republicans
generally held their own, making enough
slight gains in numerous places to counter
balance the larger Democratic gains in a
few towns. The proposed constitutional
amendment which provides that voters must
be able to read any portion of the Constitu-
ton and statutes of the State and must also
be able to write was passed Overwhelmingly.
In New London, Cyrus G. Beckwith, a
Democrat, won out handily in the mayoralty
contest and the town went Democratic Mid
dletown experienced a Democratic sweep.
In Norwalk and South Norwalk city cleo
tions were held and a Democrat was elected
mayor in both places. Sectionally speaking,
Fairfield county showed the greatest Demo-
cratic gains.

british view of New York Politics.

LONDON, Oct. 4.-The Newspapers here
generally pay much attention to the New
York political campaign, publishing long ar
ticles, dispatches and editorials on the sub
ject. The Globe says: Judging from the
Times's dispatch, Henry George will be the
next mayor. The Americans do not exceed
q quarter of the whole population, and the
Europeans, Anarchists Socialists, Italians,
Poles, Hungarians and Russians, all the
very lowest of their races, will support the
man whose childish economics and wild the
cries are derided in every capital in Europe.
These being the people who sway public
opinion. it is the height of absurdity to rave
about blood being thicker than water"
