a "TIP" FROM A SALOON SYNDICATE.

A somewhat novel plan Of handling
the liquor traffic has been submitted
to the city of Los Angeles, California.
At present Los Angeles has 200 or
more saloons. 1t also has very con-
siderable element opposed to them who
are urging the question of saloon
abolition to vote. Now a syndicate
of capitalists comes forward with a
liquor business of Los Angeles under
q modification of the Gutenberg sys-
tenn. The proposition includes reduc-
ing the number Of saloons to seventy
five, higher financial returns to the
city treasury than at present, con-
Quoting the drinking places by better
class of employees, selling of coffee and
other temperance beverages, strict
regulation and restriction. prohibition
of treating and a heavy fine for selling
to intoxicated persons. The syndi-
cate offers $4,000 annually for the
annually a considerable sum in city
improvements. With the prefer of all
this is presented the threat that in
event OF its refusal the syndicate will
spend money organizing the no saloon
movement to effectiveness and bring

profits that must accrue from exclusive

have trusted nothing to chance. They
have seen in plain figures the abso-

about ten days after the death at the
Park House several persons in differ

with the disease and the deaths be-
came frequent. Fear Of the malady
created panic among the people.
Many Of the sick died from lack of
attention and often so few would at
tend the funeral that there would not
be help enough to place the coffin in
the grave. The city authorities at

strewing lime in the many pools and
muddy places strove to check the
disease, but 1t increased in violence
during the fall months and did not
wholly disappear until in the winter.
A few cases occurred In the country.

an abrupt change in their diet and in

power to resist the disease. Fear i'm
