that the city shall never again have
council dominated by the big brew
crs whose only object is TO squeeze
dollars out of men so unfortunate rs
to have an appetite for liquor.
Jus, previous to the opening OF our
three saloons the prediction was made
tina, Rocky Ford was going TO have
something OF model nature in that
line. The supposition was that, with
knowledge that an election was only
n few months away. the saloons would
be on their good behavior, would be
orderly. decent. and try to prove to
the people that saloons were really
n good thing for the city. III the three
joints which have been operating for
the past three weeks have tried to
fulfill the above prophcsics, then they
have made monumental failure.
Their operation has caused an unusual
amount of disorder and completely
disgustcd some of their former de-
tenders.
In this fight against the saloons our
citizens have had to combat the COM
bincd money and attorneys OF three
brewing companies, who used four IL
ccnsc aldermen to force a most OBJ
noxious and harmful institution upon
a most vigorously protesting people.
But they have met their Waterloo.
