Ru|nor That Saloon Men
Are To Be Arrested
COUNCIL MAY HEAR CHARGES
Keepers of Bars Which Were
Open Sunday Are Expecting
Trouble Therefrom

Nine saloons of the city reported
to have been open last Sunday. Six
of them to be proceeded against by
Chief Jerry Brown All this if TIE re-
ports spread about the barrooms OF
the city be true.
Chief Brown was not found this af-
ternoon by the reporters, hence his
confirmation, or denial, of the report
that he would cause the arrest of the
saloon men could not be had.
When Prosecuting Attorney Lester
Wilson was asked if the report was
true that six complaints would be
filed against salOonkeepers charging
them with keeping open last Sunday,
that official declared he knew nothing
whatever of the matter; that he had
no knowledge of the bars being open,
or of any complaints to be filed.
Judge Huffman, this afternoon,
stated there had been no applications
maze 10 MIN IOr warrants.
The reports circulated this morning
were that evidence had been secured
to prove that six saloons had positive
ly sold drinks on Sunday. Three
other places, it was announced, We're
found open but the evidence secured
was not sufficient to warrant proceed
ings against them at this time.
Most of the saloon men were ex-
pecting service of some sort today in
the cases where it was known evil
dence had been secured, but the pa
pers were not forthcoming.
Council May Take Action.
This afternoon the story was circu-
lated that before criminal proceed
ings were instituted the evidence
would be placed before the council at
the next meeting when an effort
would be made to revoke the licenses
of certain of the saloon men who were
not active enough for the winning side
in the last campaign. Even this story
could not be officially verified. The be-
doses of post election war medicines
are being boiled for those of the liquor
dealers who guessed wrong in the last
city election.

Lambert in West Rose street back of
the Hunt shops. Lot L was raised
from $3.50 to $3.50; lot from $125 to
$500 and the home property from $3.50

uation on acreage property owned by

$4,000. as assessed. 1t is claimed
that this is an increase of 100 per
cent over last years assessment.
Mr.. Mckinney objects to an assess
ment of $5040 on lots 8, 10, Block 6,

Senting real estate outside of the city
