to Lessen Number at Davenport.
Special 10 Tines Republican


Davenport, June 21.-A sensat ton
was caused in the city council last
evening when Senator j. A. De Arm
and, who is also alderman-at-large Of
this city, introduced resolution pro-
viding that no more saloon licenses
should be issued until the number of
saloons here had fallen off to the pro-
portion Of one to every five hundred in
habitants.
He argued that the number of sa-
looms in Davenport, Dubuque and some
other towns, was so large that 1t would
lead to the adoption of the state mar
shall law or some such measure unless
the saloon became less dominant in To-
cal affairs. By vote of three to five,
the council turned down the resolution
Davenport now has 1873 saloons, or
about one for every two hundred in
habitantS.
