IN GRANITE FALLS,
The Saloons Struck, but Paid
$4,000 Just the Same

In view Of the temporary license
embargo of last week, the experience
of the new council in Granite Falls
will haYe interest to many of the
readers of this paper.
At the first meeting of the council,
theGranite Falls saloon men appeared
before the council in a body and
made it known that they thought
the license too high last year and
would not pay but $3.50 each on this
side the river and $500 for the Ander-
son saloon on the other side. The
council, on the other hand, informed
them that $4,000 license would be
demanded for this size of the river,
whether there was one saloon or
four, and $3.50 for the other side.
Neitherside would givein, the saloon
men went away without putting up
any money and the council ad-
journed.
Matters remained in statu quo
until the Saturday evening following,
when a petition was presented to
the council askingthat body to accept
a reduction to $3.50 but it was not
considered. Tt set forth that the
saloons we're losing money and could
not stand the amount which was con
sidered exorbitant. Later, the four
places agreed to procure license and
open up which they did, on the Gran
| tie Falls side Of the river, but the
east side man did not take out license
| at that time.

branch of education. The require
ment is that any township having a
population of 500 or over may be
formed into an independent school
district by the calling of an election
for that purpose, at which major

an organization. Should the propo-
sition be carried, the law prescribes
the manner in which the work of
establishing high school may be
commenced and be carried on.
Fl. p. Hall is always original.
When the Republican Senatorial
caucus, amid the most intense ex-
citemeIt ever witnessed at legis-
lative caucus, nominated Moses E.
Clapp for United States Senator to
succeed the late Cushman K. Davis,
Mr.. Hall, who is great admirer of
Mr.. Clapp, put himself to work on
poetry, and composed the following
to the air from the Baby song from
Wang
Noses Moses,
We are all tor Moses,
Out they go. in he goes,
On a bed of roses.
About the time that H. p. hit
upon this little poem he was called
upon to sing it in the caucus, and
he made distinctive hit by repeat
ing the four lines until the members
of the caucus took it upon them
selves to adjourn. Since that time
the poem has been printed and has
been put into general circulation
around the hotels. Long live II. +.
The legislative pocket manual for
1901, which has been prepared by
Secretary Langum of the Senate and

booklets of the kind ever issued.

tanning to the legislature, and the
books that will be handed to the
members will be in a neat pocket
book. The work is being done by
the Pioneer Press Co., and that con.
Germ is using every effort to make il
all that the two officials are now
claiming for it.
