public yesterday by the Rev. ]. w West.
secretary Of the league. According to Mr..
West. the new measure measure VIII place az
clubs chartered since April 10th on a
footing with saloons, which means that
the thick mushroom formations off, the
past month will have to be pulled down
In all the territory covered by tho Mann
BILL
A second feature will be provision
that a club charter Will not carry license
to sell whskey. This will permit the
formation Of bona flde clubs. and at the
same time prevent the opening Of any
flake clubs" since chartered club be-
fore 1t can sell liquor will have TO apply
for a license and license Will have to be
refused In no-llcensc' territory, The two
clauses operating together Will thus clean
UP all the mushroom clubs now IN ex-
Istnnce and prevent the formation of any
others. This new social club bill Is belr g
nrenar red by Judge Mann and will DO
offered by him.
To Increase the Penalty.
THE second movement OF tho league
will be in the direction OF increasing the
penalty for the sale OF WhlsKey n no
license territory. Tho present laws pun
isk a conviction with fine and lmprlson-
n,ent a. but leaves 1t In the discretion OF
The court whether or not bond should DO
reouircd. The league will offer a bill
making 1t mandatory that In addition
ia the flno and Imprisonment bond
Of not less than $500 shall be required
mon the first conviction. 1t believes
ftrat this provision would so far toward
preventing violations Of the law,
I'll has been decided by the league 10
cffer a third measure changing the form
If ira local option ticket. 1t believes that
the present ticket Is confusing, and de-
clares that many people vote wrong
because they don't understand tho ticket.
,rhe object of the change Is to make the
ticket palmer
Would Give Them Time,
Another Interesting thing learned yes
terday was that tho league Is ac9'ally
IN favor of a law offered by whlskey
people. to,wlt; The law giving saloons
kcepers in local option territory ninety
rnys in which to dispose Of their goods.
1--WE had, In fact" said Mr., West, de-
5ci6ed to propose some such measure as
this, we think It is only tpirsand Just.
We thought sixty days would be sur
flcient. but We shall not oppose the
n,nety-duy bill, We will furthermore
not try to block the passage OF the bill
