DOM GETS HIS
LICENSE At LAST
City Council Puts Saloon in the Vi
cinity of the Franklin
School.
RESIDENTS OPPOSED TO 1T
CHANGING OF STREET NAMES Is
DELAYED ONCE MORE.

Matt Dom won his long fight for a
saloon license at Second South and
Sixth West streets, near the Franklin
school, last night when the city coun-
Gil, by vote of to 8. refused to re-
consider its previous action in granting
the license. The~ council has refused the
license once, granted it once, and re-
fused finally to reconsider its action in
granting it.
Councilman A. F. Barnes made the
motion last night to reconsider. Coun-.
Gilman +. S. Fernstrom led off by say
ing that while he had at first opposed
the granting of the license, he was con-
WINGED now that no harm would come
from granting it. Councilman A r.
| Carter said he had inquired in the
nelghborhood, and found little or no
objection to the license. and Council
man T. r. Black announced his con-
version to the view that Dom should
have his license.
Barnes disputed Carter's assertion
that people living in the neighborhood
was not opposed to the saloon. Barnes
I said they were UP in arms against it,
/ and that some of them had telephoned
/ him during the evening after the coun-
/ ell session began urging him to oppose
/ IT. He argued against putting q saloon
| where school children would have to
pass it, as viii be the case in this in
/ stance. Councilman Thomas HOLIDAY
/ supported Mr.. Barnes position. and
/ said that the council had once deter
mined formally that no saloon should
/ go on that corner.
/ Councilman r. s. Wells said that sa-
/ looms were Objectionable I'm residence
/ districts. and that they could not be so
/ conducted under any circumstances as

The committee on streets reported
favorably on changing of street names

names of any of the 132-fOOt streets, eX-
cept that the name of East Temple
street be changed to Main street.
, Second-that all streets less than 49,
feet wide, running east and west, be
called avenues.
Third-That all streets running north
and south, regardless of width. be
called streets.
Fourth-That streets which are con-
limitations of other streets be given the
same name as the original street.
Fifth-That street names be changed
where it is necessary to eliminate dupli-
cation in names.

on the north bench be given new names
] ha HTE of v-n ir.h zh "a h.

Fourth ward and the city engineer sc.
