BREWERS MAKE
THEIR OWN
MARKET

A hint of the brewing companies
interest in the saloon business in
this city is given in petitions made
to the council last night for license
renewals. More than 40 such petit
tons were presented and referred
to committee.
OF this number Henry Boesmann
appears as an applicant for II H.
censes. For an accountant he seems
to be rather heavily interested in
the saloon business. uBt it de-
velops that he is an accountant for
the Spokane Brewing & Mailing
Co. and his name is merely borrow
ed by the company to further its
saloon interests.
H. l.. Crosby is also in the saloon
business to some extent. according
to the license petitions. He needs
4 permits 10 sell liquor. Mr.. Crosby
is a bookkeeper for the Inland
Brewing e. Mailing Co.
Herman Wolff. bookkeeper for
the Schade Brewing Co., manages
to get along with couple of IL
censes. so far as last nights rec
Ords show. Two licenses also fall
to the lot of w. J. Mraz, brew
master for the same concern.
Official records will show that the
sale as well as manufacture of beer
is largely controlled by the brewer
les. Through their saloons they
also handle WHISTLES and other
brands of intoXicants. The brewer
les are turning out millions of gal
Ions of beer and it must be dis
posed of Where there is no mar
ket demand must be created. Ev-
cry saloon that can possibly live is
crowded in. The brewing compan-
les install them, get licenses in en-
plOyeS' names and establish dealers
TO handle the product. If he fails to
make anything, another takes his
place and the pursuit of liquor trade
drink the beer. The closing of a
saloon is a calamity in the brewery
business.
The result of this brewery cam
paign for the promotion of drinking
is a mushroom crop of saloons,
many of which are in charge of If
responsible parties. When the over
supply of bars makes business un-
profitable, saloon robberies, box
rustling and all attendant evils of
poorly regulated liquor business are
resorted to in the efforts to make
ends meet.
If complaint becomes too strong
the brewery backing the enterprise
has only to GUST the offender and
install another in his place.

NEW YORK, May 15.-Mabel Gill
man in becoming Mrs. VIM. Ellis
Corey has doubtless satisfied her
highest ambition. AS the bride of
the president of the steel trust she
has much that money will buy But
has she everything? Only time will
tell.
Up to the present time, in the
tainted romance Of the former sim
ger of The Mocking Bird" and the
Pittsburg multimillionaire, money
has played a pretty heavy part. But
can 1t do everything? Will it open
the doors of the socially exclusive?
Will the actress be admitted within
the sacred precincts of the limited
400? Will money do this for her?
1t has failed for any of the other
musical condolences who have mar
rled rich men, and even the few
who have welded men with high So
cial positions have not been receiv-
ell by the ultra-ultras of New York
and Newport.
Mabel Gilman has come to think
that dollars, mountain high, can ac-
complish much, but if the secind
Mrs. Sorey is socially ambitious she
may at last discover that other
requisites than colossal wealth are
necessary to gain admittance to the
exclusive set of this city. Gould
millions did not avail Katherine
Clemmons, the actress; nor did
wealth help Minnie Ashley, who
married into the Aston family.

the fact that they have taken a
magnificent residence in the midst
of 'Millionaires' Mile will be sat
sfed with the Waldorf set. Riches
are always an open sesame into
this gay circle. The beauty of the
women, their toilettes and jewels
are the standards by which they
are measured. Though the 400 may
be ridiculed by the rest of the world
refinement and cultivation are re-
qulsites as well as wealth.
Thus far money has done much to
crafty the longings and ambitions
of Mabel Gilman. 1t easily secured
a divorce for the man she wished
to marry The protesting voices of
Corey's scandalized relatives have
also been stilled.
Money has been powerful to
shield Mabel Gilman at the exclu
sive Gotham hotel where she is
staying. In the luxurious suite No.
sos that she occupies with her
mother, Mrs. Jeanette Gilman, she
is protected in every way from the
vulgar curiosity of the public. De-
tectives, pages, porters and bell
boys swarm the halls and corridors
that no curious intruder may get a
glimpse at the prospective bride of
VIM e. Corey.
The telephone girls, too, are un-
der strict orders to answer no ring
