CITY COUNCIL SHAKEN UP
Citizens UP in Arms Over Non-En-
forcement of Liquor Law

At the regular meeting of the
city council Monday night a petit
ton signed by about 100 citizens
of the town asking the council to
take some steps to stop the illegal
sale of whisky in Newark was laid
before the meeting and caused no
little comment. Several promi-
nent citizens. among them being
Hon. t. H. bearing, DR.. w. p
Lawton, A. H. Saylors, G.. NJ.
Fields and j. w. Kinman, were
present to express themselves up
on the lax manner in which the
laws are being enforced. These
gentlemen expressed themselves
IN no unmistakable terms, to the
apparent chagrin and embarrass-
ment of some of the city officials,
some of whom were compelled to
admit that they had made no effort
to enforce the law against the IL
legal sale of liquor. They stated,
however, that they were ready to
do so if the citizens would take
the matter up and swear out war
rants against the offending parties.
This brought forth another volley
of criticism from some of the citi-
zens present who said they thought
it was the duty of the officers to
do this-that they were elected
and paid to enforce the law,
and that they did not wait for the
citizens to take the lead and swear
out warrants for any other class
of law brea' rs, and should not
lags thssq * Gxpect the citizens
take the lead In this matter. 1t
was pointed out that the officials
In Batesville, Cotter, Jonesboro
and other places, did not wait for
the people to take up the fight and
force them to do their duty, but
that the officers in those towns had
regarded the joint keeper as no
better than any other law breaker
and had succeeded in teaching him
that he must obey the law or suf-
fer the consequences. The matter
finally ended by a motion being
made, which carried by a unani-
nous vote, that the mayor instruct
the marshal to do his duty.
The resignation of J. d. Seward
as street commissioner and ceme-
terry sexton was presented and ac-
cepted. w. w. Magness was
elected street commissioner and
w. M. Sammons, sexton.
The resignation of G. 0. Mag
ness as alderman was rendered and
accepted and T. IL. bearing was
elected to fill out the unexpired
term.
