DIRECTED TO
ISSUE LICENSE
City Fathers Refuse to Turn
Down Boyanowski's Applica.
ton for a Saloon License.

Perhaps the one item that attracted
the most attention from the city
council last Friday evening was the
matter OF iSsueing a license to
Mr.. Boyanowski for saloon pur.
poses. This firm was refused a
license by the committee authorized tC
pass on the same, on the grounds that
Mr.. BOyanowSki was not a fit person
TO conduct a saloon. 1t was stated
in the report thai he run his saloon
counter to the policy of the city ad-
ministration and that therefore his
license was refused.
Mr.. Boyanowski was present at the
meeting in person and also by at
torney, Mr.. Gaynor who addressed the
council in behalf of Mr.. Boyanowski,
in which he charged that great
injury was being done his client in
inSinuating that he was too bad to run
d saloon. The refusal was based not
upon any charge, but simply upon the
opinion of the committee, which he
believed, and his client openly stated.
was but spite work on the part of the
committee. Mr.. Gaynor stated that
license had been granted 20 places
that were known to violate the law.
and that the refusal to give his client
the license asked for, without making
single charge against him, was the
rankest kind of an injustice. He ap-
pealed to Chief Gibson to, cite one
incident in which Mr.. Boyanowski's
place had been complained of. and
aside from the fact that complaint
had been made against him-as was
the case with most all of the Others
that he did not close at the re-
quired time, the chief could cite no
other incident.
Mayor Wheelan replied to Mr..
Gaynor, charging Mr.. Boyanowski
with having bad reputation in
and also with running his
saloon in this city counter to the
policy of the administration, and dis
honesty in private business matters.
He stated that ever since Mr.. Boy
had been in this city that he
had been in trouble of one kind or
another, and that he did not be-
lieve that he was a fit person to
run a saloon. He had acted in

it will be when the new steam crusher
and mixer arrive. These machines
will be the very best obtainable, and
will be purchased and installed just as
soon as the new company can give
them their attention.
While the articles of Incorporation
have been made, filed and returned
from Madison, the new officers and
directors have not been elected as
yet. This will probably be done in a
few days now, and the work started
on a much larger scale.
