Not TO Committee,

Mayor wentworth asked the coun-
Gil what II would do with the appli-
cation, If II desired to refer II to the
license committee or If 1t desired to
take action as whole body without
referring the matter to the license
committee, the circumstances sur
rounding the case being out of the
ordinary and the matter having al
ready been before the license COM
mittee once. A majority of the coun
Gil signified that they were willing
to take the matter up at once. and
Alderman Hudson made motion
that the license be granted. Alder
man Drew seconded the motion.
Alderman Hertz, chairman of the
license committee, strenuously OBJ
iected. He declared that the matter
should be referred in regular order
to the license committee for n re-
mort. Alderman Plank agreed with
Mr.. Hertz. Mr.. Hertz declared that
the mayor, in not referring the appli-
cation to the license committee, was
acting unfairly.
Attorney Rhone declared that the
first license had been annulled by
the county court and the saloon COM
pany had taken an appeal to high
er court, and under these circum-
stances the council had no right to
grant new license. AttorheG MC-
Mullin, for the saloon company, de-
clared that the company would sur
render the old license when new
one was granted and not before.
Alderman Hertz moved that the
matter lay over two weeks. Alder
man Plank seconded the motion, but
Il was lost.
Then the original motion to grant
the license was voted upon and car
ried by n vote of to 2. Davies,
Drew, Flynn, Boyer and Hudson vot-
ing aye, and Hertz and Plank vot-
ing nay.

To illuminate Streets.

A committee from the Chamber of
Commerce then addressed the coun-
ell and asked that an appropriation
of $44250 be made by the council
for the purpose of Illuminating the
city during fair week. II is planned
TO have the illuminations on Main
street from Third to Sixth and on
Colorado avenue from Third to Fifth
streets. These illuminations could
be kept permanently; that is, taken
down after the fair and put away to
be used at some future time. 1t has
been ascertained that the cost would
be S4425O. The council was asked
to pay this. Finally a motion was
passed approprlating $3.50 for this
nurpose on condition that the re-
mainder of the amount necessary is
raised among the citizens. In max
ing the appropriation the council re-
voked its previous action In appro-

Because air is the only free fuel and no

you cannot burn air absolutely alone, but
this new air generator actually takes its
