C0unciImen Believe the Prac-
tice Is Bad for Young Men
and Young Women.
TEN DRUGGISTS APPEAR
BEFORE THE COMMITTEE
Meeting Results in All the III
censes Being Granted After
Much Discussion.

The License committee of the City
Council had before it last night the ten
druggists who were cited to appear,
under resolution introduced by Coun-
Gilman Mulvey, and show cause why
they should he granted druggists liquor
license, and why they should not be
compelled to pay their back license.
The druggists were represented be-
fore the committee by Attorney S. P,
Armstrong, who. in a statement, said
that the agreement the Druggists as
sociation had entered into with the
Council some years ago was that each
druggist should take out liquor license
at $aoO. In many instances druggists
could not afford TO pay the license
1t did not pay them, but they had been
Informed by the association that they
should go after the business.
Councilman HOLIDAY said he was a
member Of the License committee when
the matter came up some years ago,
but he did not understand that drug
gists were TO be compelled to go into
the liquor business by the association
He also took occasion to condemn the
sale of liquor at soda fountains, and
said the practice was encouraging
young mon and women to indulge in
the liquor habit.
Councilman Mulvey and Councilman
Crabtree, the other members of the
committee, were strongly of the opinion
that many druggists, on account Of
their location and the nature of their
business, could not afford 10 pay the
license, nor did they desire to be active
ly engaged in the liquor business.
but if they were selling liquor they
should pay some license. They were
convinced. however, that those drug
gists in the central business district of
the city could afford to pay the $500
license.
The action Of the Druggists 1850
citation was construed TO mean that
some druggists were doing liquor
business on a small license, while other
members Of the association were assist
ing 70 pay il by taking out license.
The result of the meeting was that
druggists were granted the licenses and
asked 10 fake the matter up with
the association and report to the Coun-
ell. when an ordinance will be framed
grading the price Of the license accord
ing 70 the district or location Of the
store. and the matter Of a druggist
taking out license will be left optional
with him

POPULATION OF THE CITY
Census Bureaus Estimate Is Laughed
at by Salt Lake Peop!e

The report Of the Census Buresn s
estimate of the popula tion Of Salt Lake
City is causing no little comment and
even the most conservative citizens fail
to perceive how by anv mathematical
luggernaut 1T would be possible to place
the estimate as low as 61,202 There
are, In fact. but few who think that
the population within the present city
limits will not exceed 10000 and some
estimate the population at $4,000.
Manager Cooper of the R. l.. Polk
Directory company, who for years has
supervised the work OF preparing the
local directory, regards the announce
ment of the Census Bureau as Joke,
and says that according to the most re.
liable informa tiou ohtainabe he is led
TO believe that there are from n 900
to $4,000 people within the corporate
limits of the city and that bhis. with
the residents of the suburbs, would give
Salt Lake a population of between o3,-
600 and $4,000.

PROTESTS
ARE FEW
LIQUOR LICENSE COMMISSION |
WILL MEET ON JUNE 21 70 CON-
SIDER FIRSf APPLICATIONS.

The liquor license commission of
Oahu County will transact it's first
business in the consideration of appli-
cations for liquor licenses on June 21.
On that date the four weeks period
during which the. applications for such
licenses have to be advertised, will
have terminated. Consideration of the
applications and any protests that may
be offered against granting any
licenses, will be considered. Quite a
number of applications will be up for
consideration on that date. About
twenty or more will fall due for con-
sideration, and on that date the COM
mission will "get down to business" A."
as it were.
At least one protest against the is
suance Of a license to one applicant has
been received by the commission. But
thus far, there has not been any great
rush of protests in this matter. Other
protests may be filed however, but as
nearly three weeks yet remain for the
presentation of such matters, either by
letter or in person, the possibilities of
opposition still remain.
Other applications will be considered
following June 81, as the dates OF ad-
vertising of other applications expire
at periods, subsequent to that date.
The commission will hold a meet
ing as usual this afternoon to consider
the general aspect of the liquor ques-
tion. Probably some of the dealers
may be heard on the subject.

FOR
TABLET
SUPT. HOLLOWAY FAVORS NUU-
ANU PAIL RATHER THAN A
SITE LOWER DOWN IN VALLEY

Application will be made shortly by
the Daughters of Hawaii for a site up
Nuuanu valley for the location of the
tablet to commemorate the victory OF
Kamehameha the Great. Superinten-
dent of Public Worsk Holloway says
that he is perfectly willing to grant
the society a site for this purpose. rhe
approval of the Governor will have to
be secured.
At the present time the Society
seems to favor a site at Hanaiakama-
lama, Nuuanu valley. 1t has been
suggested that a small piece of the
corner of the road leading to Charles
l.. Wight's residence, and on a line op-
posite to the grounds OF the Country
Club, would be acceptable.
Superintendent Holloway thinks that
some site at the Pail would be more
appropriate. However, he is perfect
ly willing to cooperate with the et-
forts of the society to secure some
suitable site for the location of the
tablet. The question of the exact loca-
ton is matter that the Society VIII
no doubt consider at further length,
