IL FINES.

The slot-machine ordinance, which
nearly caused fight in the city coun-
Gil Tuesday night, was, it seems, drawn
up, at the request Of Mayor Boyd, by
Assistant Corporation Counsel Connor
There are state laws providing for
the regulation of the machines. The
running of money machines is strictly
prohibited, but machines which pay
merchandise are allowed to run by
paying Of fine of from $40 to $40.
Obtain Revenue.
1t is the desire of the mayor to make
this a city provision so that the
revenue of the municipality may be
increased by a system of fines on the
machines. The councilmen evidently
did not have their proper bearings on
the bill; hence the trouble. Some of
the councilmen, fearing it was blow
at the slot machines, were afraid of
the ordinance and, not knowing what
else to do, referred it to Mr.. Hand.
When it comes up again it will be
given more respect.

Hearst boom in eastern Iowa is wan

his name was formed here last week,
but it is significant that not one of

Because Dubuque is the democratic

The announcement that this county 8

few Hearst men is discouraging to his
