The blind person recognizes the type

Liquor men We're unable yesterday to
take IN the full meaning OF the high Y
license proposition, as outlined In a
report by n subcommittee to the Com
mittce on Ordinance, Charter and Re-
form. They had expected that the IL
cense would be increased to $1,000 but
they did not expect to see the number
Of saloons reduced to 81, nor had they
counted on the possibility OF original
package establishments. Therefore,,
they are giving the matter close study.
and will appear before the COMMITTEES
on August 26th, along with the other
element which will Insist upon the
passage of tho ordinance In. question.
Present Plan Revenue.
The record In the revenue depart-
ment on July 1st, according to state
ment made there yesterday, showed
that there We're 253 places in Rich
mond where LIQUOR was retailed. the
license for each establishment being
$3.50. This list includes ten hotels
which operate bars. There are also
the city $3.50 a year and four whole
sale malt houses paying a license to
the city of $3.50 each
Kill Mushroom Clubs.
The plan of the subcommittee Is to
grant licenses to twenty seven regular
saloons, at $1,000 each, and seventy
three to dealers who shall sell only
in original packages--not to be drunk
on the premises-for $3.50 each. So far.
as the revenue is concerned, the pros,
posed plan will reduce 1t. Should the
Council decide to limit the number
of saloons to 100, charging each $1,000
for the privilege&o of operating, the rev
enue would be 100000. and there
are many who believe that such q
system would find more favor than
the one already. suggested. Under a
State law all social clubs organized
after April s. 1903, are required to pay
4 the license demanded by the city, and

these places will not be numerous here
