THE LICENSE QUESTION,

TlE LISENoE ROEo IIONs
 We believe the city council did wise thing in requiring all busi- ness establishments to pay a license. The time has arrived when the town must make some public improvements and to do this it is necessary to have reye~ nue. All other towns require q license from business establish ments and there is no valid reason why Newark should not do the same thing. We cannot. expect 10 live Ill town and have any public improvements unless we provide some way of raising the necessary revenue, A city gov efnment without revenue IS utter ly incapable of properly carrying on the towns business, much less making any public improvements, and the time has fully arrived when Newark must lay aside her swoddling clothes and prepare to enter upon a solid, substantial era Of growth, prosperity and com mercial expansion. Newark is de- stined to become a town of impor- tonce and every citizen of the town should feel interested in the future welfare of the town at least to the extent of literally supporting the city government in It s effort to place our town on an equal footing with other towns in the way of public improve ments.
 We believe the people will in dorse the action of he city officials in raising the saloon license, also. The Journal does not believe in an eXorbitant or prohi5itive H. cense in any ease, but that the sa- loon license have heretofore been too low no one will attempt to deny.
 So far IS we have been able to ascertain, the saloon men have made no kick at the action of tbe council in raising the license. In fact, W, T. Magness, proprietor of the popular Kentucky Prince Saloon, who Is a member of the council, voted in favor of the or dtnance raising the license. Tho license on the other business es- tdblishments is light and vii hardly be felt.
 This gives the council ample revenue to meet the expenses ot making public improvements ane there iS now no excuse for tho town not having decent street crossings, more sidewalks mo other needed improvements.
The Newark journal., 1902-12-05
Council ProceedinoS.

The city council met in regular monthly session Monday night with all members present except Alderman Beane.
 An ordinance regulating and licensing all business carried on in side the town was adopted. 1t places the saloon license at $40 per month, an increase of $20. All dry goods and grocery stores are re- quired to pay 5 per quarter. Liv- cry stables, hotels, hardware stores, banks and drug stores are also re- quired to pay license of S per quarter. Shooting gallery, butch CT shop and pool room license were placed at $1o per quarter, and grocery store, restaurant and bar Der shop license were fixed at 5 per quar ter.
 NaterwOrks committee was upon request granted further time.
 A spirited discussion in regard to the sidewalk problem took place, but nothing definite was done. Several propositions were consid- cred, but the matter was finally disposed of by a motion to appoint a committee of three to investigate the matter thoroughly, ascertain the cost and report to the next regular meeting, ". T. Magness, k. B. Adams and T. II. Dearing were appointed on said commit tee.
 There being no further business the council adjourned.

Consumption is a human weed flourishing best in weak lungs. Like other weeds it's easily destroyed while young when old, sometimes im- possible.
 Strengthen the lungs as you would weak land and the weeds will disappear.
 The best lung fertilizer is Scott's Emulsion. Salt pork is good too, but it is very hard 10 digest.
 The time to treat consump- ton is when you begin trying to hide 1t from yourself, Others see it, you won't.
 Don't wait until you can't deceive yourself any longer. Begin with the first thought 10 take Scott's Emulsion. If 1t isn't really consumption so much the better; you will soon forget it and be better for the treatment. If 1t is consump- ton you can't expect to be cured at once, but if you will begin in time and will be rigidly regular in your treat mcnt you will win.
 Scott's Emulsion, fresh air, rest all you can, eat all you can, that's the treatment and that's the best treatment.

Richardson in mis- last illness said, to-

gave no Indications of poisoning.
Undertakers Wells and Bingham
state that there was nothing about Mr.
Richardson's body to suggest that
death was due to other than natural

THE BLOCKADE
Is Strictly Enthusiastically Vessels
Have Now Been Seized.

la Guaira. Dec. 2S.-The Swedish
bark Framnas, from Cardiff, with 40
tons of coal for the La Guaira-Caracas
Railroad. a British concern, arrived OH
this port. Thursday, and was ordered
to remain outside the blockade line.
Friday, orders were conveyed to the
captain of the bark to leave. This step
was taken because the coal was con-
sidered contraband of war. The ves-
sci was not seized, as she left Cardiff
before the trouble with Venezuela COM
menced. The captain Of the Framnas
is awaiting orders from his consignees.
The Dutch consul here has asked for
and obtained the permission of the
commander of the British cruiser Tri-
bure to send a schooner to Los Roques,
a group of small islands about 120 miles
north of here. where the charcoal burn
ers, who trade with La Guaira, are at
present without provisions or water,
their sloops having been seized by the
blockaders. The schooner must carry
d flag of truce. She can only take
enough provisions to last the trip and
she will remove all the inhabitants of
Los ROques to Willemstad, Curacao,
and then return here.
Two schooners were captured, Friday
morning. The total number of craft
taken by the blockaders is now 90
