Muscatine.
According to previous announcement,
the Ministerial Associate lion was present
In force at Friday evenings session OF
the city council, their purpose being TO
present their memorial anew asking
that the temperance lawssof the state be
enforced In the city. This memorial was
presented couple OF weeks ago, but
was tabled for actionluntil the ministers
could be present to make their presen-
tation of the case. Friday evening they
were there for that purpose, accompa-
MED by a number of citizens equally de-
sirous that the law should be enforced.
The Journal states that the fact that
Muscatine saloons are open and fla
gravity violating the law is so evident
that any one passing thru the streets OF
the city is made a witness ofstheir law
lessness. Not provision in the statute
which makes their existence possible is
deemed worthy of their respect. After
the subJectwas presented 1t was referred
to a committee.
