LICENSE FIGHT AT HUDSON
Proposition to Increase Fee from 5000
to $500 Before the Voters. -


q. HUDSON. WIS.-Another election contronts
the citizens of Hudson. and again feeling runs
high in the little city, made famous as the
one-time residence of Senator John G. Spooner,
Congressman H. L. Humphrey. Horace A. Tay-
lor.. Bill Nye and others. This time the Ques-
ton at issue is whether Hudson shall have
5000 or $500 license On saloons a year. The
voting takes place tomorrow from 8 o'clock am
to pm. ~ #.-..
A sharp contest is expected Both sides have
hired all the carriages in the city for taking
to Saltwater for a few carryalls to supply the
deficiency. While it is impossible to tell before
he nd how the election will end. it seems highly
probable, that the high license faction will win.
This faction is not nearly SO well organized as
the other. but it has more votes. 49, IT,
The advocates Of $500 fee maintain that
Hudson would have fewer and better saloons
under high license system and also more
walks. They have distributed literature showing
that all the other cities and villages in St. Croix
county have changed from low to high license,
and are strongly opposed to reverting to the low
license system. ....
